Oz Naturals Super Youth Eye Gel has been the latest beauty product to undergo my testing regimen! This is a cruelty free product with 75% organic ingredients, and it also was the winner of Allure's Best in Beauty Eye Gel category! Let's see how it did after the break...

Oz Naturals Super Youth Eye Gel features plant stem cells, their Matrixyl 3000 peptide complex, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin E. It is intended to address wrinkles, puffiness, and dark circles.
It can be used as either an eye-only or a full face product, morning and night, and works under makeup. Here's what the brand had to say:
- This Eye Gel Is Considered To Be The Most Effective & Complete Eye Treatment Available
- Designed To Treat Every Major Concern Including Dark Circles, Puffiness & Wrinkles
- Safe For All Skin Types, Non Comedogenic, Does Not Contain Parabens, Sulfates Or Alcohol
- All Active Ingredients Are 100% Natural & 75% Organic
- Made in the USA In Our Advanced FDA-Certified Facility
Behind The Science: Our eyes say a lot about us. Lack of sleep, a proliferation of stress, a poor diet can all affect the way our eyes look. Puffiness, bags, and dark circles do not show us at our best. Also, sun exposure and the inevitable aging process contribute to crow's feet and even wrinkles on the upper lid. This is why OZ Naturals has created Super Youth Eye Gel. It's an all-natural product designed to give you real results.
Let's have a look at the ingredients:
Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Glycerin, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-12, Sodium Hyaluronate, Malus Domestica Fruit Cell Culture Extract, Spirulina Platensis Extract, Macrocystis Pyrifera Extract, Wheat Amino Acids, Soy Amino Acids, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Arginine HCL, Serine, Threonine, Hydroxypropyl Cyclodextrin, Steareth-20, Chrysin, N-Hydroxysuccinimide, Nonadienal, Disodium EDTA, Benzyl Alcohol, Ethyhexyglycerin, Tocopherol, Sodium Hydroxide, Citric Acid.
I was thrilled to see glycerin as one of the top ingredients, as it is very hydrating and gentle, as is caprylic/capric triglyceride. The active peptide ingredients are near the top of the list, indicating they are a significant part of the formula.
Oz Naturals Super Youth Eye Gel comes in a pump bottle containing .5 fl. oz. This is small enough for travel use and the packaging is quite sturdy.
The gel itself is colorless, and although it does not list fragrance among the ingredients, it has a soft, almost cucumbery scent - very pleasant!
So how did it do? This product has a strong plumping and hydrating effect when first applied - it makes your skin feel a bit like you just stepped out of the shower, except the effect lasts longer. I could definitely see smoothing immediately. The hydration does not last as long as Oz Naturals Ultra Ageless Eye Creme, which I reviewed here. When used on my full dry face in the dead of winter, I did wake up with some flaking, but saw a reduction in my dark circles over the 10 days I tested it. I would say this will be absolutely perfect for me to use in the summer, when my skin is oilier and does not tolerate creams as well. So overall, I would chose the Ultra Ageless Eye Creme for my dry skin in the winter, and the Super Youth Eye Gel in the summer. The product is priced at $19.95 via Amazon, and can be ordered in conjunction with their free shipping options, which is awesome for me! I would say it is a good value (a little goes a long way) and a nice alternative to department store eye gels, which are significantly more expensive for the same amount. The fact it won Allure's award for the eye gel category is awesome and attests to its effectiveness and value.
