Sukin Purely Ageless Reviving Eye Cream is a light cream for the skin around the eyes, from the Purely Ageless range by Sukin, an Australian natural skincare brand. Its key ingredients are ribose, caffeine and coffee seed extract, set in an aloe vera base with sunflower, macadamia, argan and rosehip oils. The box holds 25 mL, and the label marks it for all skin types.
What is in it
Water, cetearyl alcohol and aloe vera leaf juice form the base, with glyceryl stearate and sunflower seed oil. Ribose is a simple sugar, while caffeine and Coffea arabica seed extract both come from the coffee plant; Sukin calls green coffee the key ingredient. The plant oils are macadamia seed, argan kernel and rosehip fruit oil. Four fruit and flower extracts follow: baobab, hibiscus, goji and açaí.
The texture comes from a group of plant gums and starches: acacia, hydrolyzed rhizobian gum, xanthan, sclerotium gum and pullulan, with silica, glycerin, lecithin and tocopherol, which is vitamin E. The light scent is from tangerine and mandarin peel oils, lavender oil, vanillin and carrot seed oil, with linalool and limonene listed as natural parts of those oils. Phenoxyethanol, benzyl alcohol and ethylhexylglycerin are the preservatives. The full list is under Ingredients.
What it leaves out
Sukin lists the cream with no synthetic fragrances, no animal derivatives and no artificial colours. It also has no harsh detergents, propylene glycol, MEA, DEA or TEA, petrolatum, mineral oils, phthalates, triclosan, sulphates, parabens, silicones or EDTA.
How it compares
Vitasave carries other Sukin products for the eye area. The Hydration Hydra Eye Gel comes in a 15 mL gel, and the Antioxidant Eye Serum is a 30 mL serum. This Reviving Eye Cream is the cream of the group and the one built around ribose and coffee. It belongs to the Purely Ageless line, and Sukin pairs it with the Purely Ageless Restorative Night Cream as the next step at night.
How to use it
After cleansing, take a small amount on a fingertip and apply it gently around the eye area. Sukin suggests using it twice a day, then following with the Purely Ageless Restorative Night Cream. The full directions are under How to Take.
Who it suits
It suits adults of any skin type who want an eye cream made without silicones, parabens, petrolatum or synthetic fragrance, and anyone who prefers skincare with no animal derivatives.

I enjoy shopping at vitasave.ca for my Sukin Reviving Eye Cream 25 ml. The cream
The cream is very light and absorbs quickly without leaving a residue. I have been using it every morning and evening for about two weeks now, and my eyes look and feel more hydrated. The cream has a pleasant scent, and the packaging is attractive too.
