Why is it good for skin of colour?
Skin of colour can suffer with both dark circles and fine lines from reduced ceramides. In addition if we are too harsh with the skin or damage is caused, it can trigger hyperpigmentation more easily.
Triple Action Eye Cream contains a delicate balance of high strength actives in a non-irritating formula and neutral ph, the perfect combination for skin of colour.
This product is 'NAFE SAFE' to minimise chances of irritation, with No Denatured Alcohol, No Fragrance and No Essential Oils.

Not for persons with a history of reactions to skincare products, very dry/sensitive skin, damaged skin or if active skin conditions are present i.e. severe eczema.

Ingredients
VITAMIN A AND VITAMIN C stimulate collagen, which reduces fine lines and increases firmness.
TYROSINASE INHIBITORS calm down hyperactive melanocytes, helping to reduce hyperpigmentation.
DNA REPAIR ENZYMES and ferment to help reverse biological age of skin and increase telomere length.
CERAMIDES are essential as skin of colour loses them with age, leading to dull, dry skin.
PEPTIDES Matrixyl 3000 and Acetyl Hexapeptide-49 to help reverse fine lines and increase bounce.
CAFFEINE helps to reduce localised inflammation, preventing fluid leaking into surrounding area and reducing puffiness.
HUMECTANTS are important to hold water in the top layers of the skin to allow light to reflect evenly, giving your skin an immediate glow.

Common Product FAQs
1. How long does it last for?
This will vary by person; if usage guidelines are followed, the average duration may be 6-8 weeks approx.
2. Is it suitable for pregnancy & breastfeeding?
No (due to the vitamin A content).
3. Is the Eye Cream suitable for all skin types?
Yes, it is suitable for all skin types, however persons with very sensitive skin / damaged skin barrier / eczema / active skin conditions should avoid.
4. Can it be used in the morning / daytime as well?
Due to the vitamin A, it is advised to use it at night only, as the skin may be sensitized when exposed to UV light. Always wear SPF50 the next day during daylight hours.
5. Can you use with other eye creams / treatments / Dr V Dark Circles Kit?
A basic moisturiser can be used but not any other treatments, serums etc.
Serums like Dr. V Antioxidant Power Serum can be applied in surrounding areas but not directly on the same area as Dr. V Triple Action Eye Cream.
If using Dr. V Dark Circles Kit, you can apply Triple Action Eye Cream on top of Vita A.C.E cream, but not with DC-Repair cream.
6. What is the difference between this product and the Dark Circles Kit? Which should I use?
Dr V Dark Circles Kit is for more stubborn, persistent long term dark circles from hyperpigmentation.
Dr. V Triple Action Eye Cream is more for fine lines, puffiness, and early stage dark circles.
7. I have never used Vitamin A before, do I need to do anything special to start off with?
Dr. V Triple Action Eye Cream contains the least irritating form of Vitamin A and at a low %, hence it can be used as normal per the application guidelines.
However, as with all treatment products, we advise patch testing on a discreet area first, to ensure there are no skin reactions before proceeding with application around the eyes.
If you have any concerns, use sparingly on alternate days at first, before progressing to full
daily use if no sensitivity.
8. Can this product be used after microneedling procedures?
Yes, after any soreness from the microneedling has subsided, it can be applied.
We advise making sure the needle is sterile and less than 0.2mm, ideally administered by a professional.
9. How long does it take to see results?
You may start to notice beneficial effects in as little as 6 weeks, however we advise 8-12 weeks to see what the full potential results may be.

G
Store Owner
I am a trained Human Resource Professional with an MBA in Human Resource Management-Training and Development and have amassed fifteen (15) years corporate experience in that discipline.
I decided to embark on a new career path which led me to be involved in my family's Physiotherapy Clinic. During that period I became very aware of the multi-faceted world of wellness. I settled into the area of skin care and began immersing myself in the vast amounts of available knowledge. Some recommendations therein led me to experiment with my teenage daughter and myself as we both had skin challenges. I can say now that I am beginning to see the best skin of my life and regret not knowing about the regimen earlier.
I am the proud promoter of products and treatments which ensure minimum irritation but maximum efficacy.
The love of skincare has prompted the birth of the business Skincare Approved by G, to share and promote with those persons who believe in following a similar skincare philosophy.
Thank you for allowing me to take you on this journey.
Best regards,
G
