The Tatcha The Silk Peony refers to the Tatcha The Silk Peony Melting Eye Cream, a popular eye treatment known for its luxurious texture and its ability to smooth, firm, and hydrate the delicate skin around the eyes.
Key Features and Ingredients
The eye cream's name comes from its innovative texture and key botanical ingredients:
-
"Melting" Texture: The cream has a unique, cushiony balm-like consistency in the jar. However, upon contact with the warmth of your skin, it instantly "melts" into a smooth, serum-like texture that absorbs quickly and feels incredibly lightweight.
-
Japanese White Peony: This hero ingredient is a flower with a powerful ability to help the skin retain moisture. It works to improve the skin's natural barrier function, which is crucial for preventing water loss and keeping the thin skin around the eyes hydrated and supple.
-
Silk Protein: The formula contains silk protein, which is known for its moisturizing properties. It helps to smooth the look of dry, fine lines and create a protective, hydrating shield on the skin's surface.
-
Peptide-Rich Whey Protein: This strengthening protein helps to visibly firm the skin and reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
Hadasei-3™ Complex: The eye cream is also infused with Tatcha's signature blend of fermented superfoods (rice, green tea, and algae) to provide deep nourishment and antioxidant benefits.
What It's For
The Silk Peony eye cream is designed to address a range of common concerns around the eye area:
-
Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The blend of silk protein, whey protein, and hydrating ingredients works to visibly smooth and plump the appearance of fine lines, including crow's feet.
-
Dryness and Dehydration: It provides a significant boost of long-lasting moisture, leaving the under-eye area feeling hydrated and looking dewy.
-
Improved Makeup Application: The velvety, non-greasy texture makes it an excellent base for makeup, as it helps prevent concealer and foundation from settling into fine lines.
-
Firming: The peptide-rich formula helps to improve the skin's firmness and elasticity over time.
Who It's For
The Tatcha The Silk Peony Melting Eye Cream is ophthalmologist-tested and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Its gentle yet effective formula is a great choice for anyone looking to address signs of aging, dryness, and dullness around the eyes.
