YOUN Beauty Retinol Eye Cream — 1 fl oz Night Repair with Liposomal Retinol & Hyaluronic Acid for Hydration and Firming

YOUN Beauty Retinol Eye Cream is a paraben-free nighttime eye treatment that combines liposomal retinol with hyaluronic acid and botanical oils to hydrate, support firmness, and smooth the delicate under-eye area.

This eye cream was developed by plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn and formulated to balance effective retinol delivery with gentle daily tolerability. The formula uses a 1% stabilized liposomal retinol complex, which equates to roughly 0.025% active retinol, plus plant-based hyaluronic acid, vitamins B5 and E, jojoba and sunflower oils, centella asiatica, and propolis extracts. The texture is designed for easy layering under night creams or makeup-free evening routines.

How does this eye cream hydrate without feeling heavy?

The moisturizer combines lightweight emollients and plant-based hyaluronic acid to deliver moisture without greasiness. Jojoba and sunflower oils replenish lipids while hyaluronic acid attracts and holds water at the surface for a plumped look.

• Plant-based hyaluronic acid for surface hydration
• Jojoba and sunflower oils for non-greasy nourishment
• Fast-absorbing texture suitable for nighttime use

Will the retinol be too strong for daily use around the eyes?

The product uses a liposomal retinol system at 1% to stabilize and control release, delivering about 0.025% active retinol—intended for gentle, consistent application. This delivery method is designed to reduce irritation compared with higher-concentration retinol serums while supporting long-term results when used as directed.

• Liposomal delivery moderates retinol release
• Formulated for nightly, ongoing application
• Lower effective active retinol concentration reduces potential irritation

What skin concerns does it address around the eye area?

YOUN Beauty Retinol Eye Cream targets common signs associated with aging and dehydration—fine lines, surface crepiness, and uneven texture—by combining retinol with humectants and calming botanicals. Ingredients like centella asiatica and propolis support the skin barrier while vitamins B5 and E help maintain skin resilience and comfort.

• Helps smooth the appearance of fine lines and crow’s feet
• Supports hydration to reduce the look of crepe-like texture
• Includes soothing botanical extracts to help maintain barrier health

How should I incorporate this into my skincare routine?

Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry under-eye skin in the evening, avoiding direct contact with the eyes. Follow with your regular nighttime moisturizer if desired, and always use daytime SPF while using retinol products to protect renewed skin.

• Use nightly on cleansed skin, a small amount per eye
• Allow absorption before layering other products
• Pair with daily sunscreen to protect treated skin

Who this is for: This eye cream is designed for adults seeking a balanced retinol eye treatment—those who want the benefits of retinol with a focus on hydration and mildness. It's suitable for a range of skin types, including normal, combination, and drier skin that needs nourishing support around the eye. If you have very reactive skin, patch-test first or consult a dermatologist before starting nightly retinol use.
