Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Eye Creme 15 ml.

Product Information

Since the launch of Banana Bright Eye Crème, we discovered an exciting gold complexed vitamin C active that inspired us to upgrade Banana Bright Eye Crème to deliver bigger and brighter benefits," says Riva Barak, SVP of Product Development at Ole Henriksen. "Banana Bright+ combines this upgraded gold complexed vitamin C with the two additional powerhouse forms of vitamin C included in the original–3,O-ethyl ascorbic acid (aka ethyl ascorbic acid) and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate–to deliver more potent benefits to the skin. It's important to note, however, that in rare cases, those with very sensitive skin can experience irritation with vitamin C—and that goes for any brand and any product. Fortunately, with Banana Bright+, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Rachel Nazarian notes that "the product contains some anti-inflammatory ingredients that are generally calming to skin, such as jojoba oil and shea butter," to help combat some of the less desirable effects that sensitive skin types can experience with vitamin C. The vast majority of users won't experience a single problem, but if you have extremely sensitive skin or have had reactions to vitamin C in the past, it's always a good idea to perform a patch test first. As someone who's had serious dark under-eye circles since I was a kid, I'd been on the hunt for a brightening eye cream (that actually works) for years before I discovered the original Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Eye Crème. It's the top-selling eye cream at Sephora and a Byrdie go-to for reducing the appearance of dark circles—plus, Kim Kardashian is reportedly a fan. It earned a permanent place in my routine the moment I applied it to my skin.

We are so excited to introduce the new and improved Banana Bright+ Eye Crème to our loyal fans and hope this new innovation speaks to an even wider consumer audience," says Ole Henriksen, Founder of OLEHENRIKSEN. "By taking our tried-and-true product and fortifying it with even more effective ingredients for even stronger results, we know consumers will see brighter and better skin they can be proud of." BIOFLAVONOIDS: citrus, plant-based antioxidant compounds—extracted from fruits like grapefruit and mandarin—that defend against harmful free radicals Both Banana Bright and Truth Serum brighten, firm, hydrate and improve the look of skin texture. The main difference is that Banana Bright Serum is Ole’s highest concentration of vitamin C for daily use (15%). Banana Bright also contains 5% PHAs (polyhydroxy acids), which is a unique chemical exfoliant. Truth Serum contains an enhanced, stable vitamin C derivative (sodium ascorbyl phosphate) along with nourishing collagen. If you’re new to using vitamin C skincare, we recommend starting with Truth Serum. Once you’ve developed a tolerance and want a higher concentration of vitamin C, we say glow bananas. I started to research what causes dark circles and how to get rid of them, or at least make them less noticeable. That’s when I found out that family history, diet, and sleep can all impact the development of dark circles. I also learned that the shadows I was seeing around my eyes can be caused by an excess of pigment in the skin. I wasn’t the only one in my family who saw dark circles at such a relatively young age, so the hereditary option seemed like the most likely possibility.Powered by a potent triple vitamin C complex with REAL gold, which improves delivery of vitamin C to the skin, Banana Bright+ Eye Crème is clinically formulated to instantly brighten, smooth and hydrate undereyes, while also visibly reducing fine lines and wrinkles and defending skin against harmful free radicals and pollution. OLEHENRIKEN sought new advances in vitamin C technology and updated the formula to help deliver better AND brighter results. The new vegan and fragrance-free formula is made with 3 powerhouse forms of vitamin C, including a highly stable vitamin C complex with REAL gold for enhanced brightening and elasticity. I used Ole Henriksen's Banana Bright+ Eye Crème every morning for two months and found that my under-eyes were significantly more hydrated, makeup went on smoother, and my dark circles were more neutralized with each application. It's important to note that my dark circles were only cosmetically lightened (not permanently lightened) because of the peachy, orangey-tint to the product, which helps to cancel out the blue tones in your under-eyes. This goes away when I wash any remnants of the product away in the evening. No eye cream can erase my dark circles because, like I mentioned before, my dark circles are a result of my eye muscles showing through my thin under-eye skin. Banana Bright Serum contains 15% 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid, which is a light-and-air-stable vitamin C derivative.

So, contrary to the name of this eye cream, banana is not one of its ingredients; the name is inspired by banana powder, a yellow-tinted powder that makeup artists use to brighten and color-correct dull skin. Tetrahexyldecyl (THD) Ascorbate is an extremely stable, oil-soluble form of vitamin C that pairs well with other types of vitamin C In 2017, Banana Bright Eye Crème burst onto the scene, changing the OLEHENRIKSEN brand forever and turning heads as the #1 best-selling eye cream at Sephora since its launch. Moving into 2022, OLEHENRIKSEN expands upon the brand's most iconic innovation, and evolves Banana Bright Eye Crème into a next generation eye cream: Banana Bright+ Eye Crème.

Gold Complexed Vitamin C ascorbic acid (pure vitamin C) + super-antioxidant glutathione combined with real gold to create a highly stable, water-soluble complex that improves delivery of vitamin C to surface layer of your skin Overall, it's an incredible formula that's perfect for daily use—it's fragrance-free, it doesn't pill, plumps fine lines, and has the added benefit of immediate brightening of the under-eye area (especially when you layer it under concealer).
