FAQ

Q: How quickly will I see results from using SkinCeuticals AOX + Eye Gel?
A: Many users notice improvements in puffiness and brightness within the first week of use. In a 12-week clinical study, subjects experienced significant improvements in fine lines and dark circles, with individual results visible at 8 weeks. For optimal results addressing photodamage and long-term prevention, consistent daily use for at least 12 weeks is recommended.

Q: Can I use this product if I have sensitive eyes or wear contact lenses?
A: Yes, SkinCeuticals AOX + Eye Gel is ophthalmologist-tested and suitable for sensitive skin, including those who wear contact lenses. However, always maintain the recommended 3mm distance from mucous membranes and avoid applying near the tear ducts or on the eyelids. If you experience any discomfort, discontinue use and speak to our experts for personalised guidance.

Q: Why does the product darken over time, and does this mean it's no longer effective?
A: The colour change from straw to dark amber is completely normal for vitamin C products when exposed to air and light. This natural oxidation does not affect the formula's efficacy. The product remains effective even after darkening. For optimal freshness, use within 3-6 months of opening and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Q: Can I layer this with other eye products or use it alongside retinol?
A: Yes, AOX + Eye Gel works beautifully in combination with other treatments. Apply it in the morning after cleansing, and you can layer other eye products on top or use it alone. If using retinol around the eyes, apply retinol in the evening whilst using AOX + Eye Gel in the morning. Always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen during the day for comprehensive protection.

Q: How much product should I use, and how long will one tube last?
A: Use half a pump (1/2 pump) per eye area, which provides the optimal amount for effective application without waste. The 15ml tube typically lasts 3-4 months with daily use, making it an excellent value for a professional-grade treatment. The pump mechanism ensures precise, hygienic dispensing every time.

Q: Is this product suitable for all skin types, including very dry or mature skin?
A: Absolutely. SkinCeuticals AOX + Eye Gel is formulated for all skin types including dry, mature, combination, oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. The lightweight gel texture provides hydration without heaviness, whilst the antioxidant complex addresses multiple concerns. For very dry skin, you may layer a richer eye cream on top if additional moisture is needed. Speak to our experts for personalised product recommendations.
