Product overview
Key Ingredients
- Cucumber Extract: confirmed as an included ingredient per the official Mamaearth Sri Lanka ingredient list, cross-checked against two India retailer listings; traditionally valued in skincare for mild soothing and refreshing properties
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7: the two specific named peptides confirmed in the official ingredient list, rather than a generic "peptide complex." Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 is commonly associated with the commercial trade name "Matrixyl 3000" in the wider cosmetics industry; this specific brand-name link was not independently re-confirmed for this exact product, so it should be treated as a general industry-knowledge reference rather than a verbatim brand claim
- Full official INCI list (per Mamaearth's Sri Lanka regional site): Propanediol, Cetearyl Octanoate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Dicetyl Phosphate, Ceteth-10 Phosphate, Bellis Perennis (Daisy) Flower Extract, Hieracium Pilosella Extract, Neopentyl Glycol Diheptanoate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Xylitylglucoside, Anhydroxylitol, Xylitol, Glycerin, Aqua, Butylene Glycol, Carbomer, Polysorbate 20, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Sodium Benzoate, Glyceryl Monostearate, Cucumber Extract, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Tromethamine, Potassium Sorbate, and an IFRA-certified fragrance
- Marketing claims disclosure: "Paraben-free," "silicone-free," "mineral-oil-free," "dermatologically tested," and "hypoallergenic" claims are consistently made across the brand's own site and retailers, but these are unverified self-claims -- no independent test lab or certification body was cited to substantiate them
Key Features
- Manufacturer: Honasa Consumer Pvt. Ltd., Gurugram, Haryana, India -- a well-known Indian D2C personal care brand
- 20g eye cream (also labeled 20ml on some listings -- this is unit-labeling variance for the same single SKU, not a size discrepancy) marketed for reducing the appearance of dark circles
- Formulated with named peptides and Cucumber Extract as headline actives
Benefits
- Cucumber Extract may offer mild soothing and refreshing benefits for the delicate under-eye area
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 are signal peptides generally associated in cosmetic science with supporting the skin's natural collagen-related processes, contributing to a smoother-looking under-eye appearance over consistent use
- Important disclosure -- dark circle claim: MedEasy found no clinical trial data, before/after study, or dermatologist citation substantiating this product's specific dark-circle-reduction claim. This should be treated as a general cosmetic-marketing claim based on plausible ingredient mechanisms, not a proven clinical outcome
