Quick Answer
Apply Antioxidant Peptide Eye Gel after cleansing and toning but before heavier moisturizers and creams, both morning and night.
Why Order Matters for Eye Gels
Eye gels are formulated with lighter textures and active ingredients that need direct contact with the skin. If you apply them after thick creams or oils, the gel may not absorb properly, reducing its effectiveness.
The Antioxidant Peptide Eye Gel is designed for all skin types, making it a versatile addition to most routines. Its gel texture means it layers well under sunscreens and makeup without pilling.
Morning vs. Evening: What Changes?
In the morning, apply the eye gel after your vitamin C or treatment serums but before sunscreen. This helps the antioxidants protect against daily environmental stress.
In the evening, the same order applies—after cleansing and any exfoliating or treatment steps, but before your night cream. This ensures the peptides and nourishing ingredients work overnight without interference.
Step-by-Step Eye Gel Application Order
- Cleanse and dry your face: Start with a clean, dry face. Remove all makeup and impurities so the eye gel can penetrate without barriers. Checkpoint: Wait 2–3 minutes after cleansing to ensure skin is fully dry before applying the gel.
- Apply toners and treatment serums: Use your toner, then any treatment serums (like exfoliants or vitamin C). Allow each to absorb before moving on. Checkpoint: Don't apply the eye gel immediately after watery toners—give them a minute to sink in.
- Dot the eye gel around the orbital bone: Take a small amount of Antioxidant Peptide Eye Gel and gently pat it around the eye area, avoiding the lash line. Use your ring finger to minimize pressure. Checkpoint: Avoid rubbing or pulling the delicate under-eye skin; patting is gentler and helps absorption.
- Follow with moisturizer and sunscreen (AM) or night cream (PM): Once the gel has absorbed, apply your regular moisturizer all over the face, including the eye area if needed. In the morning, finish with sunscreen. Checkpoint: Wait 1–2 minutes after the gel to let it dry before applying heavier products to prevent pilling.
