Afrodita – Neuro-Sensitive Soothing Eye Cream 15 ml
-
A soothing, neuro-calming eye cream formulated for hypersensitive and easily reactive under-eye skin.
-
Helps raise the skin’s tolerance threshold by reducing nerve-mediated irritation responses.
-
Biomimetic pentapeptide mimics a unique protein in the venom of the leathery sea anemone (APHC1). The latter acts as an inhibitor of TRPV1 pain receptors and as such has incredible potential to calm sensitive skin and reduce skin irritation.
-
Nourishing plant oils and barrier-supporting emollients leave the eye area soft, hydrated, and resilient.
-
Hypoallergenic, fast-absorbing formula designed to avoid triggering sensitivity or watering eyes.
Key Neurocosmetic Ingredients
Pentapeptide-59 is a biomimetic neurosignaling modulator engineered to reduce the hyper-responsiveness of cutaneous sensory neurons. It works by interfering with the release of pro-inflammatory neuropeptides from TRPV1-activated nerve endings, helping decrease stinging, burning, and neurogenic redness. With continuous use, it raises the skin’s sensory threshold, meaning nerve fibers become less reactive to external stimuli and environmental stressors.
Bisabolol demonstrates neurosensory-calming activity by inhibiting pathways involved in nociceptor activation and by down-regulating mediators tied to neurogenic inflammation. It reduces the transmission of irritation-related signals between keratinocytes and peripheral nerve endings, helping soothe hypersensitive skin around the eyes. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties further help stabilize the micro-environment around sensory neurons, improving overall tolerance and comfort.
Green Tea polyphenols, particularly EGCG, modulate neuro-inflammatory signaling by suppressing NF-κB activation and reducing cytokines that sensitize nerve endings. This helps interrupt the feedback loop between oxidative stress, inflammation, and neuronal excitation, leading to a measurable decrease in redness and irritation. Its neuroprotective antioxidant activity also shields sensory nerves from free-radical-induced hyperexcitability, supporting calmer and more resilient skin over time.
