Garden of Wisdom's GoAway Circles Eye Serum is a targeted solution specifically designed to tackle under-eye darkness. It features Haloxyl, a potent active ingredient that helps absorb and eliminate colored blood pigments in the skin, which primarily cause dark circles. Additionally, the serum includes Matrixyl 3000, which works to lift and tighten the skin, enhancing its youthful appearance. Eyeliss is another key component in the formula, which strengthens capillaries and aids in stopping the progression of broken and leaking capillaries. This preventative measure helps to tackle the root cause of dark under-eye circles before they even begin. This combination of ingredients makes the serum a powerful tool for correcting and preventing under-eye concerns.
NOTE: this is to be used for under-eye DARK CIRCLES only.
Many people instantly assume that dark circles under the eyes are due to stress or tiredness, and many creams and products have supported and promoted this basic assumption. However, this is now known because the tiny capillaries beneath the skin break, and blood can seep out. This blood, in turn, oxidizes and turns the skin a dark, bruised color. The overall thinness of the skin in the eye area can further enhance this.
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.
Jujube Fruit Extract rich in vitamins and minerals and loaded with antioxidants, flavonoids, saponins, and polysaccharides.
Seamollient binds moisture to the skin, hydrates skin, emollient
Eyeliss Invitro and in vivo studies demonstrate that Eyeliss has the ability to: reduce capillary permeability to prevent leakage of fluids, eliminate excess fluids to relieve puffiness of surrounding tissue, enhance firmness to reduce slackening of the skin, minimize inflammation to prevent tissue damage
Clinical evaluations: 65% of panelists showed a measurable improvement in just 28 days! 70% of panelists showed a measurable improvement after 56 days!
Matrixyl 3000 "Matrikine" is the term proposed for fragmented matrix peptides able to regulate cell activity. Matrixyl™ 3000 contains two matrikines, Pal-GHK and Pal-GQPR. Acting as messengers of cutaneousrestructurization and repair, these two peptides work synergistically to restore and maintain the skin's youthful appearance
Haloxyl includes a combination of active ingredients able to absorb and eliminate colored blood pigments in the skin that are responsible for dark circles under the eyes. Haloxyl lessens under eye dark circles and reinforces firmness and tone of the eye area, In a study with 22 female volunteers the application of a gel containing 2% Haloxyl for 56 days resulted in an improvement of dark circles in more than 70% as assessed by image analysis and computerized measure-ment of color parameters<

I have had dark under-eye circles (i.e. dark purple color) ever since I was a young child. Even with addressing underlying issues with my iron levels, I still had dark circles. Now, being on my 2nd bottle of this serum (first purchase being of the smallest bottle), the dark circles have cleared completely about ⅔ of the way underneath my eye. Purchased the large bottle this time and am looking forward to getting rid of the remaining darkness where the eye meets the bridge of the nose!
Frankie,
Thank you! Your review makes us giddy with joy as we all know and understand the frustrations with dark under eye circles.
Its wonderful to hear you are having success. So many aren't able to see this kind of result but your willingness to hang in there and
give it the best possible outcome is amazing.
Hopefully, others with this same concern will read your review.

Too soon to tell
Feels nice on the delicate skin around your eye - too soon to really tell if I'll keep in my routine
Thank you, Hannah!
The skin is so delicate under our eyes so your feedback that this serum
does feel nice is important to others.
We look forward to your future feedback.
Best of luck,

Very Effective Under Eye Syrum
I try to keep this eye serum in my possession at all times. I usually buy the small size but believe it or not, it lasts forever since I only use one drop under each eye every day. It really does what it's supposed to do, totally erases the darkness under my eyes. It's a fantastic product and I don't want to ever be without it. At the moment I still have a little left and I will be ordering it again soon. I love GOW products, and have never been disappointed with anything i've ordered. Thanks GOW for making such amazing products for us. I'm getting ready to place another order for some other GOW products that are forever and always a staple in my skincare regimen. Love Love Love their moisturizers as well, just wish we could have more discount codes once in awhile. It really helps. Thanks GOW
Thank you for this review!

Oh gosh they do go away....
I have had dark circles in like forever...I know it's hereditary but the continuous use of a laptop, the lack of sleep and the sinus issue I have contributed to making my dark circles even darker. I have tried oh so many creams and treatments and spent so much money that I lost count; they did work but only for a couple of days or a maximum of a week, then I am back to square one. I came across the Go Away Serum of GOW by coincidence and decided to give it a go..no reviews at all but the ingredients looked genuine and the name intrigued me. It came in a plastic container with a pump which makes it easy to use - just a tiny wheeny little pump and a small quantity of serum (pea size) is enough for both eyes..under and orbit of the eye - so already a plus as it lasts longer. It distributes nicely on the eyes, has no odour, no stickiness and dries up pretty quickly - hey another plus. I have been using it for more than 2months now before actually writing this review and can notice the difference, the dark circles are lighter, the fine lines are barely there and my eyes feel fresh - I don't have that tired look anymore. I can't say the dark circles vanished, but at least less noticeable, the dark colour has reduced a lot and when applying some concealer they barely show unlike before - where I would still have that darkness glowing through!. GOW you definitely made this serum work. Just one downside - the bottle is dark hence you see through to check what's left.
So glad this is working so well! Thank you for writing this review!

I am already gaining my confidence back..
I haven't slept since I woke up by 2am and looked at the mirror. U won't understand the joy I have is like that of someone who just won a lottery. I have had dark circles for about 13yrs. The dark circles were thick. I have used even very expensive creams but the creams did not remove my dark circles. The dark circles are fading fast. This is a miracle. I can only say thank you. God linked me to your products. U must have worked very hard. Again the eye serum doesn't irritate my eyes like some do. I wish u the very best in what u do. I am already gaining my confidence back. My spirit is uplifted. I was just telling my cousin about it because her mum has the same problem for up to 30yrs now. Before I found your serum I was going to plan a trip to a london clinic. I had already gone for consultation and was supposed to go for the dark circle treatment. With this I will not need to anymore.
So great to hear this :) We're super happy to hear this!
Love it for my neck. Will try on my face at some point. I have Rosacea so I have to be careful with my face. Love Bakuchiol for the body too.

Winter Skin MUST HAVE
I love the other GOW hydrating mists but has not tried this one yet. My skin is on the struggle bus this Fall. Due to weather plus perimenopause I felt like I couldn’t get enough hydration no matter what! Purchased the 1oz size of this mist to try and it’s a game changer!! I just ordered the 4oz size during a sale. Never want to be without this during Fall and Winter.

Another WIN from Garden of Wisdom
I've never not loved Garden of Wisdom products 100%, and this is no exception... I alternate the C3 Elixir with other GoW products (the C3 does great on off-days that I don't use peptides), and it's been a great addition to my skin's arsenal. Some products can be drying or irritating to my skin but this isn't, at all!
I have to say... Markey and the entire team at Garden of Wisdom is a blessing. They do what they do out of a passion for helping people, and crafting high-quality, clean and safe products, at an affordable price - along with the utmost customer service (and I love the little hand-written notes I get with each order :)
Thank you, Markey, Leah, Jen, and the rest of your awesome team. xo

Finally a Azelic acid product with the perfect ingredients
I have extremely reactive rosacea + POD + seb derm and have never been able to tolerate other azelaic products (Finacea, The Ordinary, Cos De Baha, etc.). They all left me flushed, burning, slick-oily and “raw” the next morning – even at low %.
Wisdom’s azelaic serum is the complete opposite. The base is incredibly gentle: no sting, no burn, no delayed flare. I can apply it at night after just a water rinse, my skin might flush for a minute (vascular rosacea doing its thing), then it calms right down. I wake up with skin that looks calm, not cooked – still a bit oily (normal for me), but far less than before and without that angry, inflamed look.
It’s the first azelaic that actually works with my barrier instead of fighting it. If you have super sensitive, rosacea-prone, seb-derm-ish skin and thought azelaic just “isn’t for you,” this formula is honestly worth a try.
Please can you consult with your customers if you ever want to discontinue this product? will happily stock up if that ever happens.

This cream is so healing to my skin
This cream is so healing to my skin. I have a sensitivity to citrus products and get a terrible rash and my face will itch. This is the only product that calms my skin.I apply this and within a few hours the rash has diminished and the itchiness is gone. The Calendula Blossom Cream has saved my skin.

Love it!
I love this product & so does my skin! For me, that is a huge blessing.
Where would I be without this serum? It keeps me clear and doesn’t cause any irritation to my eczema-prone skin. This is a must-have.

Hi Cynthia 😊
Thank you for taking the time give us a review.
It's so exciting to know the Bakuchiol p;roducts work so well with your sensitive, Rosacea skin profile.
Have a wonderful week.
Markey ❤️
I love the simplicity of this formula. This makes a great nourishing and healing serum. I have to be careful with hyaluronic acid (all molecular weights) and retinol/al(s), all which tend to dehydrate my skin. Oat beta glucans bring it back to life!
Alyssa
⋆.˚✮ ✮˚.⋆ for leaving a review for our Oat Beta Glucans. We use this ingredient in a lot of our formulas as it is extremely healing and soothing to the skin. Actually, years ago there was a customer who did a study on this ingredient and found so many favorable reviews and testimonials from people with extreme burns and it fascinated us. Kudos to the dear lady! We're so glad to hear that it has been nourishing and healing for your skin. It's great to know that it's a helpful alternative for those who may have sensitivities to other ingredients like hyaluronic acid and retinol.
We’re so grateful you took the time to write us.
Wishing your skin continued comfort and balance during this journey.♡
