Eye Matrix

1. Morning and evening, on the eye contour, after your serum step.
2. Take a small amount, about the size of a grain of rice for both eyes.
3. Pat it in with the ring finger, following the orbital bone.
4. Stop at the bone. Do not apply it on the eyelid itself.
5. Let it absorb fully before makeup or sun protection.

My dark circles are brown, not blue. Will it help?

Less than it would on vascular circles. Eye Matrix is built around troxerutin, which works on capillary fragility and congestion, so bluish shadows respond best. Brown pigmented circles need a brightening approach. Ask Émilie which combination makes sense for your contour.

Can I use it with a retinol eye cream?

Yes, but not in the same routine. Alphascience suggests Eye Matrix in the morning and retinol in the evening. The skin around the eye is the thinnest on the face and does not take kindly to several active layers stacked together. Separating them by time of day solves it.

Can I use it if I wear contact lenses?

Yes. The formula is ophthalmologically tested. Apply it before putting your lenses in, keep it on the orbital bone rather than the eyelid, and let it absorb fully. If any product does reach the eye, rinse with clean water and give it a day before trying again.

When should I start using an eye cream?

When the contour starts telling on you before the rest of your face does, which is usually somewhere in the thirties. The eye area has almost no oil glands and thin skin, so it dries and creases earlier. Starting before lines set is easier than working on them later.
