Ajurana EyeContour: Your Advanced Solution for Rejuvenated Eye Care

Unveil the secret to youthful, vibrant eyes with Ajurana EyeContour, a cutting-edge liposomal active ingredient crafted in France. This amber-colored (color may vary by batch) oily liquid or semi-liquid liposomal concentrate is specifically designed for delicate eye area care. Featuring natural flavonoids from Arjuna bark extract (INCI: Oleic acid, Terminalia Arjuna (arjuna) extract, lecithin), it’s a powerful ally against signs of fatigue, dark circles, puffiness, and loss of elasticity. Ajurana EyeContour is soft and safe for sensitive skin, making it perfect for both daily and professional use, providing comprehensive rejuvenation.

Description and Key Features

Ajurana EyeContour is a highly innovative active ingredient delivered in a liposomal form, which significantly enhances its skin penetration and bioavailability. This means the beneficial compounds from the Arjuna extract are more effectively delivered to where they are needed most within the skin around the eyes. The extract itself is derived from the Terminalia Arjuna tree, renowned in traditional medicine for its rich content of natural flavonoids, triterpenoids, and phenolic compounds.

Key features and benefits of Ajurana EyeContour:

• Capillary Strengthening: Significantly strengthens capillaries and reduces the appearance of vascular networks (spider veins), contributing to a more even skin tone around the eyes.
• Puffiness Reduction: Effectively reduces puffiness and fluid retention in the tissues, diminishing under-eye bags for a refreshed look.
• Improved Tone and Elasticity: Increases the tone and elasticity of the eyelid skin, helping to firm and lift the delicate area, reducing the appearance of sagging.
• Enhanced Microcirculation: Actively improves microcirculation in the eye contour area, which helps in diminishing dark circles and signs of tiredness.
• Liposomal Delivery: Its unique liposomal form ensures superior penetration and absorption of active ingredients into the deeper layers of the skin, maximizing efficacy.
• Skin Compatibility: Gentle and safe for even the most sensitive skin around the eyes.
• Fat-Soluble: Oil-soluble and compatible with oils, emulsions, and cream/gel bases. It does not dissolve in water, requiring emulsification or prior solubilization for aqueous formulas.

Versatile Applications and Usage Areas in Cosmetics

Ajurana EyeContour is a highly versatile active ingredient, making it an indispensable addition to a wide range of sophisticated eye care and anti-aging cosmetic formulations:

• Targeted Eye Serums and Creams:
  • Anti-Puffiness Serums: Highly effective in formulations designed to combat morning puffiness or general fluid retention around the eyes, providing a visibly smoother appearance.
  • Dark Circle Correctors: Enhances products aimed at reducing the intensity of dark circles by improving microcirculation and strengthening capillaries.
  • Firming Eye Creams: Ideal for anti-aging eye creams focused on improving skin firmness and elasticity, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
• Eyelid Fluids and Roll-ons:
  • Cooling Eye Rollers: Perfect for lightweight, refreshing roll-on products that provide a soothing sensation while delivering active ingredients to reduce swelling and awaken tired eyes.
  • Lightweight Fluids: Excellent for non-greasy, fast-absorbing fluids that can be used under makeup or as part of a multi-step skincare routine.
• Anti-Couperose Products:
  • While specifically for the eye area, its capillary-strengthening properties make it valuable in broader anti-couperose (redness-reducing) formulations for the face, to address delicate vascular issues.
• Anti-Aging Cosmetics:
  • A powerful addition to comprehensive anti-aging lines, particularly in products targeting the sensitive eye area, where signs of aging often first appear.
• Eye Patches and Masks:
  • Can be incorporated into hydrogel or fabric eye patches and overnight masks for intensive treatment, delivering a concentrated dose of actives for immediate and long-term benefits.
• Men's Eye Contour Products:
  • Due to its effectiveness in reducing puffiness and signs of fatigue, it's an excellent ingredient for men's skincare lines, addressing common concerns around the eyes.

Important Considerations for Application:

• Dosage: Adhere strictly to recommended dosages:
  • 1–5% in creams and serums.
  • 1–3% in light gels and fluids.
  • 1–2% in patches and masks.
  • Up to 5% in anti-aging eye cosmetics.
• Integration: As an oily liquid/semi-liquid liposomal concentrate, it is fat-soluble and compatible with oil, emulsion, cream, and gel bases. For water-based formulas, it requires proper emulsification or prior solubilization.
• Avoid Eye Contact: While safe for the eye contour area, direct contact with the inner eye should be avoided.
• Dosage Limit: Do not exceed the recommended dosage, as higher concentrations may lead to a reverse effect or irritation.

Ajurana EyeContour is the perfect choice for formulators aiming to create high-performance, results-driven eye care products that cater to the sophisticated demands of the global market, ensuring visible improvements in firmness, microcirculation, and overall eye radiance.

Cosmetic Recipe: "Awakening Eye Serum" with Ajurana EyeContour

Create a lightweight, highly effective serum designed to reduce puffiness and dark circles, and improve skin elasticity around the eyes, featuring Ajurana EyeContour.

Instructions for Preparation:

1. Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, containers) using isopropyl alcohol. Allow everything to air dry completely.
2. Prepare Phase A: In a heat-resistant beaker, combine distilled water and glycerin. Heat to 70-75°C (158-167°F) on a hot plate or in a water bath.
3. Prepare Phase B: In another heat-resistant beaker, combine Olivem 1000, rosehip oil, and jojoba oil. Heat to 70-75°C (158-167°F), ensuring the emulsifier is fully melted.
4. Emulsification: Slowly pour Phase A into Phase B while continuously stirring with a stick blender or high-shear mixer. Blend for 3-5 minutes until a uniform, creamy emulsion forms. Continue stirring gently (e.g., with a spoon or hand mixer on low) while the emulsion cools.
5. Prepare Caffeine Solution: In a tiny separate container, dissolve caffeine anhydrous in a minimal amount of hot distilled water. Set aside.
6. Cool Down Phase: Once the emulsion has cooled to below 40°C (104°F), add the Ajurana EyeContour, the dissolved caffeine solution, hydrolyzed collagen, broad-spectrum preservative, and hyaluronic acid powder (if using powder, ensure it dissolves fully).
7. Final Mixing: Stir the mixture thoroughly for several minutes to ensure all ingredients are uniformly dispersed.
8. pH Adjustment (Recommended): Check the pH of your serum. For eye products, a pH between 5.0 and 5.5 is generally ideal for skin compatibility and preservative efficacy. Adjust if necessary using a diluted solution of lactic acid (to lower pH) or baking soda solution (to raise pH), adding drop by drop and rechecking.
9. Final Transfer: Carefully pour the finished serum into a clean, sterile airless pump bottle or a dark glass dropper bottle.

Recommendations for Application and Use:

• Optimal Dosing: This recipe uses 3% Ajurana EyeContour, which is within the recommended range for effective results. Adjust within the specified dosage (1-5%) based on desired intensity.
• Integration Method: Ensure Ajurana EyeContour is added during the cool-down phase (below 40°C/104°F) of your emulsion. Its liposomal nature can be sensitive to high heat.
• pH Consideration: Always check and adjust the pH of your finished formulation to ensure it's skin-compatible and optimizes the efficacy of all ingredients, especially around the delicate eye area.
• Storage: Store the finished serum in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight. The amber color of Ajurana EyeContour is natural and may subtly influence the serum's final hue.
• Avoid Direct Eye Contact: While this serum is for the eye contour, remind users to avoid direct contact with the inner eye. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Patch Test: Before full application, advise users to perform a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area of skin to check for any sensitivities or reactions.
• Application: Apply a small amount of serum (1-2 drops) around the eye contour morning and night, gently patting with your ring finger until absorbed.
