EmerginC Scientific Organics Eyelight Serum is gentle enough for even sensitive eyes but packs a powerful antioxidant punch. It depuffs eyes while treating signs of aging.
Why It Is Special
A quick flick of this rollerball based serum takes care of morning undereye puffiness while reducing visible signs of aging. It has a unique combination of treating and soothing ingredients, many of them organic.
Ingredient Profile
Packed with lots of natural goodness, Eyelight contains:
Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is one of the most powerful antioxidants. It is 65 times stronger than Vitamin C in combating free radicals. It protects cells against oxidation or decay. It is moisturizing and has UV blocking properties.
Grape Stem Cells
Grape stem cells reduce sun damage while calming skin. Grape stem cells nourishing to the skin and contain building blocks for collagen production.
Kombucha
Well known as a healthy anti-aging beverage, this natural probiotic has topical benefits as well. It reduces inflammation and evens the skin tone. Packed with Vitamin Bs, it reduces wrinkles and brightens the skin. (SIDE NOTE: There is no tell-tale Komucha aroma to this product).
Seaweed
Seaweed is full of humectants and draws water to the skin. It contains Vitamin E and amino acids that help Seaweed plump fine wrinkles.
Green Tea
Green tea contains polyphenols that soothe skin while providing antioxidants. Polyphenols may improve sun-damaged skin. [1] High in Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), green tea is a major player in skin health and appearance. EGCG is the potent antioxidant from green tea. It protects against environmental damage and neutralizes free radicals that prematurely age skin. Research shows EGCG reactivates dying skin cells. This shows promise for repairing sun damage and scar healing. [2]
White Tea
White tea is exceptionally gentle yet powerful. It helps even the skin tone. It is anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. It can reduce redness and inflammation around the delicate eye area, even if caused by light eczema. White tea also contains EGCG, which enables the production of new cells in the epidermis [3]. It also contains phenols which strengthen collagen and uniquely, elastin. This gives skin a bouncy, younger look while delaying wrinkles.
Yerba mate
Skin-soothing and loaded with antioxidants. This vegetable tea-like drink contains active chemical compounds including skin nourishing Vitamins A, C, E, B1, B2, Niacin (B3), B5, and B Complex. It has Calcium, Manganese, Â Selenium, Magnesium, Phosphorus, plus fatty acids and Polyphenols. Together they nourish skin, promote collagen production, and reduce fine lines while brightening skin.
Pine bark
Pine Bark improves skin hydration and elasticity while decreasing skin fatigue.
Hyaluronic acid
Holds moisture and helps other active ingredients penetrate the skin. Smooths and plumps wrinkles and fine lines.
Mallow
This natural floral extract contains Vitamins A, C, and E. It softens while being gentle enough for the most sensitive of skin. It nourishes dry and even damaged skin, restoring elasticity.
My EyeLight Serum experience
I use it before applying my eye cream. It is gentle but brightening. It does not sting even when my eyes are extra sensitive. It de-puffs my morning eyes but does not leave them feeling dry like some depuffing products can. My skin is smooth and dewy.
The rollerball is quick and distributes just the right amount of product. It dries down smooth, not at all tacky or sticky. Eye cream or makeup goes on top of the serum smoothly with no pilling.

My lower eye skin is crazy sensitive this year. I need something to boost hydration but isn’t stingy.

Can you keep it in the fridge so you can use it cold? I like doing that with eye products.
Style Chicks says
It works great. 🙂
Nicole Fosse says
Any eye product that doesn’t pill is impressive in my mind.
Style Chicks says
I know! I tried a few different primers and I couldn’t get it to pill at all!
Janella Dalton says
Mallow is such a pretty flower – I knew it was a good skin ingredient, but I never knew what kind of flower it was. 🙂
Style Chicks says
I was surprised when I first saw a picture. Not sure what I thought it looked like, but it is a pretty flower! And a great ingredient!

My skin is so raw after the cold this week. This sounds sooooo soothing.

It’s been a lifesaver in the changing weather. 🙂 My eye skin always suffers when we have weird weather (cold one day, warm the next day) but this has kept my eye skin smooth and balanced.
Caleigh says
I am a huge believer in topical EGCG, especially around my eyes.
Style Chicks says
We are too! We get excited anytime we see it as an ingredient in skincare products!
