This easy-to-apply, bestselling balm-serum hybrid is made with encapsulated retinol to treat fine lines, wrinkles, dryness, dark circles, and smooth out the skin texture in the under-eye area instantly.

This light-as-water product from Japanese brand SK-II uses PITERA, the company’s trademarked ingredient — a nutrient-dense liquid derived from yeast extract, to deliver potent skin-enhancing ingredients.
