DELICATE SKIN MEANS MULTIPLE CONCERNS

EYE AREA IS UNIQUE

• Is on average 5X thinner than the rest of the face
• Has many capillaries that can lead to puffiness when fluid builds up. As we age capillaries become more fragile and break down causing discoloration and dark circles
• Has fewer sebaceous glands and fewer collagen and elastin fibers, making the eye area prone to sagging and wrinkling
• Most common eye concerns are: dark circles, fine lines & wrinkles, crow's feet, puffiness, dehydration, "hooding" or droopy lid, and loss of firmness, sagging/"crepiness"

Total Eye® Complex comprehensively addresses the key concerns of the eye area in one powerful blend of ingredients.

FAQS

How much Total Eye® should I use?

With Total Eye®, dispensing and applying the appropriate amount is very important. Be sure to dispense half a pump to the applicator tip and dot around both eyes. This half pump is enough to cover the entire orbital region (under eye to brow-including eyelids) for both eyes. This means ¼ pump per eye.

If you apply more than this, the extra product can collect in fine lines or settle in under-eye creases. And if you are just using it for under the eye as opposed to the entire eye area, this might require less product. Once the appropriate amount is applied, use the applicator tip to smooth the product over and then use your fingertips to blend- this will allow for a nice finish.

In what order should I apply Total Eye® with other Colorescience® products?

First apply All Calm™, Even Up®, or your favorite Skin Perfector to lightly moisturized skin. Next, apply Total Eye® to ensure the brightening and color-correcting benefit. (As Total Eye® has a priming benefit, another eye primer is not necessary.) Follow with your Colorescience® foundation and enhancers. And don’t forget to finish with the Sunforgettable Brush-on Sunscreen, reapplying this every 2 hours for continued sun protection.

How often should I use Total Eye®?

Apply Total Eye® twice a day to the entire orbital area, from under eye to brow, including eyelids. You may also reapply to the under-eye area over makeup as a touch up throughout the day.

How should I wear Total Eye® overnight and do I need to worry about the color transferring to my bedding?

Apply Total Eye® to lightly moisturized face at night and follow normal application instructions. The treatment benefits are maximized if the product is worn twice a day, including overnight.

While we do not guarantee the color will not transfer, in our clinical studies none of our subjects reported any transfer at night.

How should I use the Total Eye® applicator?

Dispense half a pump of Total Eye® by lightly pressing down on the base of the pump behind the applicator tip. Product will dispense into the applicator tip which can then be applied directly to the skin.

Will it work with all skin tones?

Yes. Total Eye® is formulated for all skin tones and is available in four neutral shades - fair, medium (original), tan, and deep. The color is intended to neutralize (cancel out) most browns, blues and some reds.

Can I use Total Eye® around the mouth or any other part of the face?

Total Eye® is safe to use around the mouth or any part of the face, however, keep in mind the ingredients were selected for optimum results specifically for the eye area.

Does this product replace any of the discontinued eye products such as Eye Brightener, Eye Camouflage, Pep Up Concentrate?

While not a 1-1 replacement for any of the previous products, Total Eye® is meant to provide similar benefits to the discontinued products but in a superior all-in-one formula.

Do I need another eye cream/treatment when using Total Eye®? / When do I apply Total Eye® with another eye cream/treatment?

Total Eye® addresses the visible signs of skin aging, including depuffing, hydrating, correcting dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles, crow’s feet, and improving skin laxity, therefore another eye treatment is not necessary. If using in conjunction with another eye product, apply Total Eye® after your other product to maximize the immediate brightening and dark circle correction.

Can Total Eye® be worn as a primer under my eye makeup for sun protection?

Total Eye® preps the skin for smooth application of makeup so it can be worn as a primer.

Is Total Eye® a treatment product or a concealer? Do I need to wear an additional concealer in addition to Total Eye®?

Total Eye® is a treatment product for the eye area. It is available in four neutral shades - fair, medium (original), tan, and deep - that provide immediate color-correction for dark circles and brightening of the eye area. The four expertly blended shade is intended to neutralize most of the reds, blues and browns found around the eye. For some, this correction will be enough. For others that need more concealment, we recommend the use of our Mineral Corrector Palette SPF 20 after/on top of Total Eye®.

Why do I need SPF at night?

While SPF protection is not needed at night, Total Eye® provides additional long-term benefits of depuffing, hydrating, correcting dark circles, fine lines and wrinkles, crow’s feet, and improving skin laxity that are maximized if the product is used twice daily. Colorescience® sunscreen is 100% mineral and free of chemical-active ingredients making it safe for use while sleeping.
