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. Which means it’s going to solely superficially penetrate the pores and skin. Its molecule is just too giant to go very deep. The pores and skin across the eyes requires a smaller molecule. Plus, we’re not seeking to hydrate or plump the attention space with this DIY product.

I take advantage of excessive molecular weight powder as a result of it’s straightforward to seek out and provides an instantaneous 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 want (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 really like the cucumber toner and it’s harking back to cucumber slices over the eyes however you should utilize any sort you’ve available or want. 

Important oils may also be disregarded however I do advocate at the very least protecting one in all them Frankincense or Cypress that are each fairly good at tightening the pores and skin. Frankincense can also be good at repairing the pores and skin at a mobile stage so when you solely choose one, make it Frankincense. 

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

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

I really like recipes like this one which are so extremely easy however they in no way are pointless. This roll on has the potential to significantly enhance the realm round your eyes. It’s reasonably priced to make and could be made in actually seconds. It’s a winner on each stage!
