The Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum is ideal for anyone seeking a total eye treatment that targets upper eyelids (loss of firmness), outer eyes (lines & crow’s feet) and under-eye (puffiness).

What’s the difference between the Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum and other Paula’s Choice eye treatments?
Although all our eye-area products contain a variety of anti-aging ingredients that target various concerns, the Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum is our first specifically formulated to depuff, firm and tighten. It is our most advanced peptide-focused treatment that specifically targets key factors and pathways that lead to undesirable changes around the eye, including fatigue-related puffiness, which can occur at any age.

How long does it take to see results when using the peptide eye serum?
While many report the eye area feeling instantly refreshed, results can vary from person to person ranging from one week for improved hydration to four weeks + for visible lifting, tightening and softening of fine lines.

Is the Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum paraben-free, vegan or silicone-free?
The Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum is paraben free and vegan. This product does contain dimethicone (a skin-softening ingredient), so it is not considered silicone-free.

How well does this formula depuff stubborn eye bags?
The Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum’s cooling metal tip can help alleviate under-eye puffiness related to fluid retention. This can be achieved by gently massaging the product under the eye in a back-and-forth rocker motion. This will help to break up and prevent pooling of fluid in this area.

More stubborn under-eye puffiness may be caused by a variety of factors including aging, lack of sleep, allergies, genetics and more. Depending on what’s causing bags under the eyes, there will be a variety of treatment options to consider.

Does this product help with dark circles?
For dark circles, we recommend the C5 Super Boost Eye Cream. This concentrated vitamin C eye cream precisely targets common under eye concerns with a combination of 5% vitamin C, peptides, hyaluronic acid and a key ginger extract.

Can I use the Pro-Collagen Peptide Firming Eye Serum all around the eye area?
Yes, this product is a comprehensive treatment for the entire eye area, including the eyelids. The four targeted peptides in the formula help to depuff under-eyes, visibly lift tired eyelids and soften the appearance of fine lines and crow’s feet. For best results, gently apply around the eye area while avoiding direct contact with the lash lines. If any product gets into your eyes, rinse thoroughly.
