How to use it
How do you apply a vitamin C and retinol eye cream?
After cleansing and toner, squeeze a rice-grain amount per eye and dot it along the orbital bone, the ridge about a finger-width below the lash line. Pat it in with your ring finger rather than dragging, and keep it off the lash line. If you use it in the morning, follow with sunscreen, as the carton directs.
Because it lists three retinoids, start two or three evenings a week and build up once your skin feels comfortable.
Before you use it
For external use only. Keep it out of the eyes, avoid broken or irritated skin, and discontinue use if irritation or rash appears. Keep out of reach of children.
It lists retinol, HPR, and retinal, so if you are pregnant or nursing, ask your healthcare provider before use. It also contains soybean oil, fragrance, and collagen, so it is not vegan. Patch test on the inner forearm first if your skin is reactive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Mommy Care Orthotamin Vitamin C Eye Cream authentic and made in Korea?
Yes. It is made in Korea by reBom Co., Ltd. and distributed by Olive International, the company behind Mommy Care. The English carton prints the full INCI list, directions, and cautions. Kosbee buys it into US stock and ships sealed 0.5 fl oz (15 ml) tubes from our own New Jersey warehouse.
How do you apply Orthotamin Vitamin C Eye Cream?
The carton says to apply an appropriate amount evenly to the eye area and facial skin, and to follow with sunscreen for daytime use. Squeeze a rice-grain amount per eye, pat it along the orbital bone with your ring finger, and keep it off the lash line. Because it lists retinoids, start two or three evenings a week.
Pure ascorbic acid vs vitamin C derivatives — which does this eye cream use?
Both. Ascorbic acid, pure vitamin C, is listed at 10,000 ppm (1%) on the Korean label and sits tenth on the INCI list. Two derivatives appear further down: 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid and sodium ascorbyl phosphate. Ferulic acid and tocopherol are listed alongside them in the same tube.
Orthotamin Vitamin C Eye Cream vs Orthotamin Vitamin C Ampoule — which one?
Choose by area and strength. The ampoule is a liquid for the whole face, with ascorbic acid listed at 15%. This eye cream is a cream in a 15 ml tube, with ascorbic acid at 1% plus three retinoids and caffeine, and is labeled for the eye area and face. Many people use the ampoule by day and this cream in the evening.
How fast does Kosbee ship this Korean eye cream?
Kosbee stocks this eye cream at our own New Jersey warehouse and ships within one business day, so US orders arrive in days rather than weeks from overseas. Each order is a sealed 0.5 fl oz (15 ml) tube. Shipping is free on orders of $60 or more and $9.99 below that.
