Review

Results you may expect from using Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream:

Based on the ingredient analysis by CreamScan, these are the key benefits you can expect from using Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream:

  • Light moisturizing. It has a moisturizing rating of 3.2 out of 10.
  • Soothing: Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream contains a high concentration of soothing ingredients, which may help to reduce irritation and calm the skin.
  • Antioxidant protection.

How moisturizing is it?

Lightly moisturizing: Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream has a moisturizing rating of 3.2 out of 10.

Is it more humectant or occlusive? Rather occlusive. It has a low humectancy of 1.8 out of 10 and a moderate occlusivity of 4.6 out of 10, primarily due to the high content of Squalane (est. ≈9.0%).

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the moisturizing rating calculation.

Anti-wrinkle efficacy

According to CreamScan analysis, Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream has a zero anti-wrinkle rating.

It contains some ingredients marketed as effective in reducing wrinkles, specifically Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, Centella Asiatica Extract, Ammonium Glycyrrhizate, and Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate. However, the studies supporting the anti-wrinkle claims of these ingredients provide insufficient evidence of efficacy according to CreamScan Research Evaluation Standards. Therefore, these ingredients do not generate the anti-wrinkle rating.

Moisturizers, when used regularly, are proven to prevent wrinkle formation and even reduce existing wrinkles. Therefore, this product, like any other moisturizer, could deliver some anti-wrinkle effects through its moisturizing action.

Please refer to the Ratings section below for details of the anti-wrinkle rating calculation.

Antioxidant benefits

We estimate that Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream is rich (> 3%) in antioxidants, specifically Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract (est. ≈3.0%).

A key benefit of antioxidants is their ability to reduce oxidative stress caused by free radicals and therefore prevent accelerated skin aging. Studies also show that antioxidants can protect against environmental damage such as UV radiation and pollution, and help reduce inflammation and skin redness.

Skin soothing

Based on the ingredient list analysis, Vivier Radiant Eye Contour Cream is rich (> 5%) in soothing ingredients, particularly Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract (est. ≈3.0%).

When applied to the skin, compounds of soothing ingredients, such as triglycerides, phospholipids, fatty acids, phenolic compounds, and antioxidants, work together to soothe the skin through various mechanisms: reducing inflammation, promoting wound healing, repairing the skin barrier, and providing antimicrobial and antioxidant activities.

Ingredients explained

Water
Est. %70
Function

Function
Origin
An occlusive moisturizing and emollient compound that forms part of the skin’s sebum. The main source of squalane had always been shark liver. Now, however, it is manufactured synthetically or derived from plant oils, such as olive and peanut oil.
