Under-eye puffiness and dark circles are a perennial shopper concern. Mibelle Biochemistry's VividEye, which is based on organic apple mint leaves*, brightens dark under-eye circles and cuts down on puffiness by addressing the underlying causes of the conditions.

VividEye (INCI: Mentha Suaveolens Leaf Extract (and) Maltodextrin (and) Aqua/Water) takes on these signs of premature aging by strengthening the vascular network via a reduction in blood vessel leakage and by boosting lymphatic vessel formation to enhance fluid drainage from the under-eye area.

This method of action addresses the blood accumulation created by increased vascular permability, as well as melanin deposition, which rise with age. Both contribute to dark circles; this discoloration becomes more visible as the skin thins with age.

Improved lymphatic drainage, meanwhile, reduces under-eye bags by counteracting weakening of the delicate tissue in the eye area, per Mibelle.

The technology also takes on skin thinning by boosting the skin barrier.

A reduction in eye bag volume and dark eye circle appearance was confirmed via clinical studies, per the company.

Key claims reportedly supported by VividEye include:

  • Increased eye contour luminance
  • Reduced eye bag volume
  • Decrased blood vessle leakiness
  • Enhanced lyumphatic vessel formation
  • Inhibited melanin formation

*Notably, apple mint leaves are also behind the company's skin brightening technology, MintyBright Nu. MintyBright Nu is a skin brightening ingredient comprising an extract of dried apple mint leaves. The flavonoid-rich source boosts the ingredient's ability to diminish the synthesis of melanin to even out skin tone and increase brightness. The technology is reportedly ideal for beauty supplements.
