Garden of Wisdom's Cellular Eye Complex - Age Defying Hydration for Delicate Skin is a cutting-edge treatment that targets the delicate eye area with a powerful blend of hydrating, healing, and firming ingredients. At its core, Cellular Eye Complex is infused with pure spring water for immediate, refreshing hydration and celery distillate, known for its cooling, soothing properties that help de-puff and tighten delicate skin.

Tamarind extract and distillate deliver a dual dose of deep moisture and skin-repairing benefits, while lady’s mantle extract provides natural astringent properties that visibly refine and tighten texture. Soy-based liposomes serve as intelligent delivery systems, enhancing the absorption and potency of each ingredient while acting as gentle emollients.

Royal jelly plumps and nourishes the skin, encouraging regeneration, while sodium PCA, a natural moisture-binding agent, keeps the eye area supple and hydrated. For antioxidant protection and profound age-defying results, Cellular Eye Complex is fortified with glucosamine complex and apple polyphenols, offering antioxidant activity up to 300 times stronger than Vitamin E.

DMAE delivers a lifting and firming effect, while L-proline, a key amino acid, supports wound healing and reduces sensitivity, making this formula ideal for tired, stressed, or aging eyes. The result is a visibly smoother, brighter, and more youthful-looking eye contour, with enduring hydration and revitalization.

Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients

Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life.
Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).

Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible 

Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.

Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark

Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator.
Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.    

Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt

Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place.   
Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated.
Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove
what you need and keep the rest in the fridge.
Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years.
Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location.
Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years.
They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place.
Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.

Shipping Transit Note:
Some customers have asked whether products can be affected by time in transit, especially during warmer months. Our products are formulated and preserved to remain stable during normal shipping times and should not spoil simply from being in transit.

That said, if you are concerned about heat exposure, you are welcome to add an ice pack to your order for extra peace of mind. Click here to add an ice pack.
