Smoother wrinkles, firmer-looking skin and a visible eyelid-lifting effect!
BasicLab Stimulating Eye and Eyelid Serum is an advanced dermocosmetic designed to target signs of ageing around the delicate eye area. Combining 0.1% adapalene ester, 1.5% DMAE and biomimetic peptides, the formula supports skin renewal, improves firmness and helps reduce the appearance of expression lines, crow's feet and signs of tiredness.
This multi-action eye serum smooths and firms the skin, creates a visible eyelid-lifting effect and helps brighten the appearance of dark circles and pigmentation. Ceramides NP and AP provide additional moisture barrier support, helping reduce water loss and maintain skin comfort. Designed for evening use, the serum should be introduced gradually to allow the skin to build tolerance to the retinoid derivative.

- Skin around the eyes showing expression lines and crow's feet.
- Eyelids experiencing a loss of firmness and elasticity.
- The under-eye area with dark circles, pigmentation or visible signs of tiredness.
- Skin around the eyes prone to puffiness.
- Anyone looking for advanced anti-ageing eye care with a retinoid derivative and peptides.

- Biomimetic peptides – help minimise the appearance of expression lines and reduce puffiness around the eyes.

FAQ:
Can I apply this serum directly to my eyelids?
Yes. The formula is designed for use both under the eyes and on the eyelids. Keep a safe distance from the conjunctival sac.
Can I combine this Adapinoid® serum with a retinal eye serum?
The manufacturer does not recommend using both products in the same routine. It can be combined with other BasicLab dermocosmetics, taking individual skin tolerance into account.
Do I need to apply an eye cream after using the serum?
Not necessarily. If the serum alone provides sufficient hydration and comfort, an additional eye cream is optional.
How long does it take to build tolerance to adapalene ester?
According to the manufacturer, the adjustment period takes approximately four weeks, although this varies from person to person. Application frequency should be increased gradually.
Can I use this eye serum during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Do not use during pregnancy. Consult your doctor before using it while breastfeeding.
