Ingredient Notes:

Why cucumber witch hazel and never a hyaluronic acid base? The hyaluronic acid powder that I’ve linked in all my hyaluronic acid recipes is a excessive molecular weight powder. Because of this it would solely superficially penetrate the pores and skin. Its molecule is simply too massive to go very deep. The pores and skin across the eyes requires a smaller molecule. Plus, we’re not trying to hydrate or plump the attention space with this DIY product.

I exploit excessive molecular weight powder as a result of it’s straightforward to search out and provides an on the spot plumpness to the pores and skin. A low molecular weight HA powder can probably penetrate too deeply and trigger irritation within the pores and skin. I’m unclear how low we will go earlier than it’s too low so I desire (for now) to stay with the excessive molecular weight. I clarify this extra in depth in my unique hyaluronic acid serum recipe publish. 

Any sort of witch hazel will work. The true star of this present is Vitamin C. I like the cucumber toner and it’s paying homage to cucumber slices over the eyes however you should use any sort you may have readily available or desire. 

Important oils can be unnoticed however I do advocate a minimum of preserving certainly one of them Frankincense or Cypress that are each fairly good at tightening the pores and skin. Frankincense can be good at repairing the pores and skin at a mobile stage so should you solely choose one, make it Frankincense. 

No preservative is required as a result of the witch hazel is nicely preserved. The important oils may even assist hold your roll on recent. Nonetheless, I do advocate utilizing the roll on inside 1-2 months of creating it. 

This can be a nice product candidate for a magnificence fridge. Making use of this chilly will assist cut back puffiness as nicely. 

I like recipes like this one which can be so extremely easy however they on no account are pointless. This roll on has the potential to vastly enhance the realm round your eyes. It’s inexpensive to make and will be made in actually seconds. It’s a winner on each stage!
