EYE Serum can be used morning and night. In the morning, follow with sunscreen to protect delicate under-eye skin. At night, it supports hydration and renewal while you sleep.

Can I layer EYE under makeup and other skincare products?

Yes! In fact, we have consulted a number of celebrity makeup artists for their feedback on ease of use under makeup. They have noted that with proper dry downtime EYE doesn't cause pilling of concealer or foundation or the dreaded crinkle! In fact, most have noted a visible improvement of concealer and eye makeup application and appearance! 

For skincare, like the other skin serums, we suggest applying EYE, allowing dry time, and then layer thinnest to thickest (e.g. retinol eye serum, eye cream or moisturizer, SPF, then concealer, and so on) 

Can I use EYE Serum if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, but please be aware that our periorbital area contains some of the most delicate and thinnest skin on the body. Transient pinkness may occur simply from the application process. Note that EYE combines the gentle renewing power of platelet-derived exosomes with proven botanicals like coffee extract and dual seaweed extract. If you have an allergy or sensitivity to those ingredients consult your doctor or aesthetic provider before use, Observe for true irritation or allergy and reach out to your provider for evaluation.

Can EYE Serum reduce the look of dark circles or puffiness?

Yes! 98% of users reported the reduction in the look of puffiness and nearly 80% in the look of dark circles. The hydration, barrier support, and antioxidant-rich exosomes can improve the appearance of under-eye puffiness and dark circles over 4–6 weeks. 

Can EYE Serum be used after cosmetic procedures?

Yes!  EYE Serum supports rejuvenation and hydration post-procedure Providers often pair EYE, INTENSE, or CALM both to prep the skin prior to a procedure and immediately following a procedure to reduce downtime by up to 50%! Some common procedures providers pair with ( plated )™ serums are lasers, microneedling, facials, and chemical peels. Consult your skin therapist, aesthetic provider, plastic surgeon, or dermatologist for their preferred and customized protocol. 

Can EYE Serum be used with other brands’ eye creams or retinol products?

Yes, but layer carefully. Apply ( plated )™ EYE Serum first, allow full absorption, then follow with other products. 

How long until I see results from EYE Serum?
