Garden of Wisdom's Eye Majik Cream w/Cosmocil CQ fights wrinkles and lifts skin with the aid of Matrixyl 3000. As messenger molecules, Matrikines™ are capable of regulating cell activities. They interact with specific receptors to activate certain genes involved in the process of extracellular matrix renewal and cell proliferation.
A mix of Sunflower seed oil and Pomegranate seed oil condition and nourish the skin. Pomegranate seed oil also serves as a powerful antioxidant, and is rich in nutrients. This cream helps to calm irritated skin, while also combating signs of aging.
We also offer this option in a lighter version: Eye Majik Cream w/Cosmocil CQ Lighter Version is very light and fluffy, and soaks into skin without being greasy or oily. This version of Eye Majik was specially formulated for those who are sensitive to wax based creams. Artemisia and Cornflower soothe and calm the skin, while date seed extract significantly reverses wrinkles. East Shea butter conditions the skin, leaving it healthy and smooth. Pregnancy safe.
Method of Application Apply a small, pea sized amount of this cream by gently patting it on the orbital bone. The heat from your skin will draw the cream closer to the upper and lower eyelids.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for 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 always 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 (except our Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please keep your products out of high humidity, heat, and direct light, and keep them 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 the Salicylic Acid Serums as those 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 Requiring Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it into a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier Oils - generally you can refrigerate all carrier oils although some of the very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take it out, warm it up at room temperature and it should liquefy. If not, setting the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shaking the bottle will hopefully turn into a liquid. ^There are some oils that have a super long shelf life like Coconut Cream and Jojoba Oil. Refrigeration is not necessary, but it surely won't hurt. Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should always be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare' butters. You can take out 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 (whole or ground) should be kept in a dark, cool and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts - these are created using alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents from each herb.
