The Hero Ingredient
2% Bidens Pilosa — Natural Retinol Alternative
Bidens Pilosa is a botanical extract used in skincare as a plant-derived alternative to conventional retinol.
This formula contains 2% natural retinol alternative, making it the central ingredient behind the serum's anti-ageing positioning.
It is designed to support:
• Smoother-looking skin
• Reduced appearance of fine lines
• Firmer-looking skin
• Improved-looking texture
• A refreshed, rejuvenated eye area
Bidens Pilosa is not retinol. It offers a botanical alternative for customers who prefer a different approach to conventional retinol skincare.
Key Supporting Ingredients

The formula contains both Hydrolysed Hyaluronic Acid and Sodium Hyaluronate.
They help:
• Attract and retain moisture
• Plump dehydrated-looking skin

• Keep the delicate eye area hydrated
Organic Aloe Vera Juice
The first ingredient in the formula.
Aloe Vera helps hydrate, soothe and condition the delicate eye area while supporting a comfortable skin feel.

A powerful moisture-binding ingredient associated with the skin's Natural Moisturising Factor.
It helps maintain hydration and softness around the eyes.

A lightweight botanical oil that helps condition the delicate skin around the eyes and support its moisture barrier.

A nourishing botanical oil rich in fatty acids that helps maintain skin softness, comfort and suppleness.

An amino-acid derivative used in anti-ageing skincare to support the appearance of smoother and firmer-looking skin.
It complements Bidens Pilosa and the formula's focus on fine lines and firmness.
Horse Chestnut + Escin
The formula contains Horse Chestnut Seed Extract and Escin, ingredients used in cosmetic formulations targeting the appearance of tired and puffy-looking skin.
They complement the serum's focus on under-eye bags and visible fatigue.

Vitamin C
The formula contains Ascorbyl Palmitate, an oil-soluble Vitamin C derivative that provides antioxidant support and complements the formula's radiance-focused ingredients.
Why Use a Dedicated Eye Serum?
The skin around your eyes is delicate and often one of the first areas where fine lines, dehydration and visible fatigue become noticeable.
This formula brings several concerns together in one targeted treatment:
Fine Lines + Dark Circles + Puffiness + Hydration + Firmness
Rather than applying a conventional retinol product close to the eyes, this formula has been specifically developed around a 2% plant-derived retinol alternative for the eye area.
