Amyris’ Biossance Launches The Illuminator Eye Gel

In California, Biossance has launched The Illuminator, a dual peptide, weightless eye gel with what the company dubbed “exceptional clinical results”.

This new, nontoxic product uses weightless, hydrating, 100% plant-derived squalane with dual peptides to reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness along with cell extract from Swiss apples to rejuvenate the delicate skin around the eye area. The product’s ingredients assist with lymphatic drainage supporting a reduction in bagginess around the eyes, which is often associated with lymph fluid pooling under the skin. The Illuminator is also clinically proven to increase cutaneous microcirculation, breaking up the concentration of red blood cells under the eye and reducing the appearance of dark circles.

Biossance uses pioneered sustainable 100% plant-based squalane to replenish skin and enhance biological beauty. The squalane-based brand was created in response to the prevalent use of squalane derived from sharks as an emollient in cosmetic products, creating devastating environmental impact.

“The Illuminator is a fantastic, natural solution designed specifically for the delicate eye area to keep you looking fresh and radiant. It’s essential to have such an innovative product that’s free from harmful ingredients,” said Katey Denno, an A-list celebrity makeup artist known for her extensive knowledge of green beauty.
