As a pioneer in treating uneven skin tone, Clinique unveils a new innovation

to address dark undereye circles. 

THE FACTS The eye area is a universal, facial skin care concern. Within the eye category, dark undereye circles are a top concern, regardless of age and ethnicity. Many factors can lead to dark circles, including fatigue, stress, age, dehydration, poor circulation, inflammation, and heredity traits.  Also, the thinner skin around the eye area can make dark circles appear more prominent. Through recent research, Clinique scientists found that a large component of the colour of dark circles is melanin accumulation. This uneven skin tone can make skin appear older. According to Clinique’s Guiding Dermatologist, Dr. David Orentreich, when the skin is more evenly toned, the result is a younger looking appearance.

New from Clinique : Even Better Eyes Dark Circle Corrector

Dark circles are also an emotional issue.  Clinique conducted an extensive study with over 600 women across various ethnicities to gain insight as to how dark circles affect them and how they treat the issue. Results revealed that dark circles are a top skin care concern that can lead to self-consciousness and overall lack of confidence. Women are also very skeptical to try eye creams to treat the problem.  They would rather cover up their dark circles with concealer.

THE SOLUTION As the #1 brand in treating uneven skin tone with Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector, Clinique has developed a new formula specifically designed to treat dark circles instantly and over time.  With more than 15 years of scientific research and data, Clinique introduces Even Better Eyes Dark Circle Corrector, a gentle formula that has the power to lighten the entire eye area – a credit to the persistence of Clinique Laboratories. The results: clinically proven to visibly reduce dark circles by 30% in 12 weeks.
