How it works
The skin around the eyes carries almost no oil glands and is roughly a third the thickness of skin on the rest of the face, so it loses water fastest and shows strain first. Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream leads with Copper Tripeptide-1, a copper-carrying tripeptide from the well-studied GHK family that Korean ampoules use for skin-conditioning support. It is joined by Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, a hexapeptide popularly known as argireline, used in Korean anti-aging serums for its skin-conditioning role. Further down the list, Ecklonia Cava Extract rounds out the formula as a brown-algae extract native to Korean and Japanese coastal waters, valued for its polyphenol antioxidant content. That is the case for using Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream as a regular step rather than an occasional extra.
Key benefits
- Built around Copper Tripeptide-1, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, named on this product's own ingredient list
- Targets the thinnest, most dehydration-prone skin on the face
- A cooling, de-puffing feel on application
- Lightweight enough to sit under concealer without pilling
- Formulated separately from face products for a gentler eye-area profile

Fragrance on the list
How much Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream should I use per application?
A small, pea-sized amount per eye is enough, since the under-eye area is thin and does not need or benefit from a heavier layer. Pat it in gently with a fingertip rather than rubbing, working from the inner corner outward. Using more than that mostly increases the chance of product migrating into the eye itself rather than improving results.
When should I apply Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream, morning or night?
Both work: mornings for a de-puffed, brighter look before makeup, nights to let it work uninterrupted while you sleep. If you can only fit it into one part of the day, most people get more visible benefit from a consistent nightly habit. Either way, apply it after your face serum and before a heavier eye cream if you layer both.
Is Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream safe to use every day?
Yes, this is formulated for daily use as a standard step in a routine rather than an occasional treatment. Build up gradually if you are new to a dedicated eye product, starting once daily before moving to a full AM and PM habit. Stop and patch test again if you notice any stinging near the eye area.
Can Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream be used with reading glasses or contact lenses?
Yes, once the product has been patted in and absorbed it will not interfere with glasses or contacts. Apply it before inserting contact lenses in the morning, or after removing them at night, to avoid any residue transferring to the lens. Wash your hands before application either way.
Is Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream the authentic Korean-market formula?
Yes, Korean Pharmacy sells the same formula Heimish sells through Korean retail, sourced specifically for the US market rather than reformulated for it. Its original Korean-market batch coding stays intact. That is the version this brand built its reputation on.

Ingredient list read from jolse.com on 10 September 2026.
56 of 63 explained
- Water solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- Butylene Glycol humectant
- Butylene Glycol is a small glycol that does two jobs at once: it holds water in the top layer of skin and it dissolves plant extracts and actives that plain water cannot. It also thins a formula, which is why watery Korean essences lean on it.
- Ecklonia Cava Extract plant extract
- Ecklonia Cava is gamtae, a brown seaweed harvested off Jeju. It carries phlorotannins, an antioxidant group found only in brown algae, and it is used as a marine antioxidant extract.
- Undaria Pinnatifida Extract plant extract
- Extract of the brown seaweed Korean cooking calls miyeok. It carries fucoidan and alginates, both strong water-holding polysaccharides.
- Hizikia Fusiforme Extract plant extract
- Tot, a Korean brown seaweed eaten as a side dish. Its extract is mineral rich and used as a hydrating marine ingredient.
- Laminaria Japonica Extract plant extract
- Laminaria Japonica is kombu kelp. Its extract carries alginates, minerals and iodine, and it is used as a hydrating, mineral-rich ingredient.
- Glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- Cetearyl Alcohol fatty alcohol
- Cetearyl Alcohol is a waxy solid, not the drying kind of alcohol. It is a blend of cetyl and stearyl alcohols used to thicken a cream and keep oil and water from separating, and it softens skin as it does so.
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride emollient
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is the light fraction of coconut oil, with the heavy parts removed. It is the workhorse emollient of modern formulas: it softens skin, dissolves oil-soluble actives and absorbs without the greasy weight of a whole plant oil.
- Cetyl Ethylhexanoate emollient
- Cetyl Ethylhexanoate is a synthetic ester used as a dry-feeling emollient. It spreads easily, leaves a silky rather than oily finish, and helps disperse pigments and UV filters evenly.
- Hydrogenated Polydecene emollient
- Hydrogenated Polydecene is a synthetic hydrocarbon emollient used in place of mineral oil. It is stable, has no scent, and gives a cushioned slip without oxidising.
- Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil emollient
- Macadamia Seed Oil is unusually high in palmitoleic acid, a fatty acid that human sebum also contains, which is why it absorbs faster than most nut oils. It is a cushioning emollient for dry skin.
44 more explained
- Niacinamide active
- Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is used at roughly 2 to 5 percent for the look of uneven tone and visible pores, and it is water soluble, stable and comfortable beside almost every other active, which is why it turns up in so many lists.
- Cyclopentasiloxane silicone
- Cyclopentasiloxane is a volatile silicone: it spreads a formula thin and smooth then evaporates, leaving no residue. It is the silicone behind a dry, powdery primer finish.
- Glycol Stearate SE emulsifier
- Glycol stearate supplied self emulsifying, which is what SE records: a little soap is already included so it disperses without a second emulsifier. It also gives a pearlised look.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil occlusive
- Plant oil hardened by hydrogenation. It behaves as a soft solid, so it gives balms and sticks their body and slows water loss from the surface.
- Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter emollient
- Shea Butter is the fat pressed from the shea nut, rich in oleic and stearic acids and unsaponifiable plant sterols. It is a heavy emollient and partial occlusive, which is why it sits in balms and night creams rather than in essences.
- Glyceryl Stearate emulsifier
- Glyceryl Stearate is glycerin joined to stearic acid, and one of the most used emulsifiers in skincare. It holds oil and water together and thickens the result, and it softens skin at the same time.
- Cyclohexasiloxane silicone
- Cyclohexasiloxane is a volatile silicone used for a light, fast-spreading feel that leaves nothing behind.
- Sodium Hyaluronate humectant
- Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt of hyaluronic acid, and it is what most products labelled hyaluronic actually contain. The salt dissolves more readily and the molecule is smaller, so it sits in the outer layer of skin rather than only on top of it.
- Beta-Glucan polysaccharide
- Beta-Glucan is a polysaccharide from oats or yeast. It holds a large amount of water, forms a soothing film, and is one of the ingredients formulators reach for in products aimed at reactive skin.
- Leontopodium Alpinum Callus Culture Extract plant extract
- Edelweiss cells grown as a callus culture, then extracted. The alpine plant carries leontopodic acid and other polyphenols, and culture gives a consistent supply without harvesting it.
- Codium Fragile Extract plant extract
- Extract of a green seaweed known as dead man fingers. Like most green algae it carries sulphated polysaccharides and minerals, and it is used as a water holding marine extract.
- Enteromorpha Compressa Extract plant extract
- Green laver, the parae of Korean cooking. Its extract is a mineral-rich, hydrating seaweed ingredient.
- Laminaria Cloustoni Extract polysaccharide
- Extract of a North Atlantic kelp. Like other brown algae it carries alginate and fucoidan, sugars that hold water and thicken, along with minerals from sea water.
- Laminaria Digitata Extract plant extract
- Oarweed kelp extract. It carries alginates, minerals and iodine and is used as a hydrating, mineral-rich marine ingredient.
- Porphyra Yezoensis Extract plant extract
- Nori laver, the gim eaten in Korea and Japan. Its extract carries porphyran, a water-holding sugar, along with minerals and amino acids.
- Ulva Lactuca Extract polysaccharide
- Extract of sea lettuce, a green algae. It carries ulvan, a sulphated sugar polymer that holds water, and it is used as a marine conditioning extract.
- Copper Tripeptide-1 peptide
- Copper Tripeptide-1 is three amino acids bound to a copper ion, and the classic firming peptide in cosmetic chemistry. It is blue in solution, which is often why a serum carrying it is tinted, and it is used for the look of firmness and fine lines.
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 peptide
- Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is a six-amino-acid peptide used for the look of expression lines, particularly around the eyes. It is the peptide sold under the name Argireline and is water soluble and stable.
- Adenosine active
- Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated.
- Trehalose humectant
- Trehalose is a sugar that some desert plants use to survive drying out. In skincare it is a humectant that holds water in the outer layer and helps a formula feel comfortable rather than tight.
- Tocopheryl Acetate antioxidant
- Tocopheryl Acetate is a stable vitamin E ester that skin converts to tocopherol. It is used as an antioxidant and a light emollient and holds up better than plain vitamin E in a formula.
- Sorbitan Olivate emulsifier
- Sorbitan Olivate is an olive-derived emulsifier, the oil-loving half of the pair sold as Olivem. It holds oil into water and leaves a light, non-waxy feel.
- Sorbitan Palmitate emulsifier
- Sorbitan Palmitate is a sugar-derived emulsifier, usually paired with a polysorbate, used to hold oil and water together in creams.
- Dipropylene Glycol humectant
- Dipropylene Glycol is a glycol used as a solvent and a light humectant. Its main job is keeping the rest of the formula dissolved and the texture fluid rather than adding hydration of its own.
- CI 77288 colorant
- Chromium Oxide Greens is a dull green mineral pigment. It is inert, sits on the surface, and is used in small amounts to correct the look of redness in a tinted product.
- Palmitic Acid fatty acid
- Palmitic Acid is a saturated fatty acid present in skin's own lipids. It thickens a formula, stabilises the emulsion and softens skin.
- Sorbitan Isostearate emulsifier
- Sorbitan Isostearate is a mild emulsifier that holds water into oil, the direction a cleansing balm or an oil-based cream needs.
- CI 77492 colorant
- Iron Oxides are mineral pigments in red, yellow and black, and the three are blended to make every skin-tone shade in a tinted product. They are inert and sit on the surface.
- Stearic Acid fatty acid
- Stearic Acid is a saturated fatty acid from plant fats, and one of the three lipid classes skin's own barrier is built from. In a formula it thickens, stabilises the emulsion and can be turned into a soap-style cleanser by adding a base.
- Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate absorbent
- Modified starch treated with aluminium so it resists water. It absorbs oil and gives a silky, matte finish.
- Hydrogenated Lecithin emulsifier
- Hydrogenated Lecithin is lecithin with its unsaturated bonds filled in, which makes it far more stable. It emulsifies and is the standard shell for the liposomes that carry actives into the outer layer of skin.
- Cetyl Palmitate emollient
- Cetyl Palmitate is a wax ester, the same kind of molecule that makes up much of spermaceti and jojoba. It thickens the oil phase and leaves a smooth, non-greasy film.
- Dimethicone silicone
- Dimethicone is the most used cosmetic silicone. It forms a breathable film that smooths the surface, slows water leaving skin, and gives the slip that makes a primer or cream feel silky. It is inert and does not penetrate.
- Hydroxyacetophenone preservative booster
- Hydroxyacetophenone is an antioxidant that also strengthens a preservative system, so a formula needs less traditional preservative. Korean formulas pair it with 1,2-hexanediol constantly.
- Polyacrylate-13 thickener
- Polyacrylate-13 is a pre-neutralised thickener that gels instantly and holds an emulsion together, so a formula can be built without heat.
- PEG-100 Stearate emulsifier
- PEG-100 Stearate is a water-loving emulsifier almost always paired with glyceryl stearate. Together they form the standard cream base of the last fifty years.
- Polyisobutene film former
- Polyisobutene is a synthetic polymer that forms a flexible, water-resistant film. It gives gloss and holds a formula in place, which is why it appears in lip products and long-wear textures.
- Polysorbate 20 emulsifier
- Polysorbate 20 is a solubiliser: it dissolves small amounts of oil or fragrance into a watery formula so nothing separates or floats.
- Butylphenyl Methylpropional fragrance component
- A synthetic aroma molecule with a soft floral note, once widely known as Lilial. It is one of the fragrance components EU labelling requires to be named separately.
- Linalool fragrance component
- Linalool is a floral aromatic found in lavender, bergamot and coriander. It is one of the 26 fragrance components EU labelling requires to be declared by name.
- Fragrance fragrance
- Fragrance, or Parfum, is a single declaration standing for a whole scent blend, which can be dozens of materials. Regulators allow it as a trade secret, so a list showing only this word does not say what the scent is made of. It is the most common trigger named by people with reactive skin.
- Disodium EDTA chelator
- EDTA is a chelator: it locks up trace metal ions from water and packaging that would otherwise turn a formula cloudy, off-colour or rancid. It does nothing to skin and appears at a fraction of a percent.

How to use
- Take a small dot of Marine Care Algae + Peptide Eye Cream, roughly a pea-sized amount split between both eyes.
- Dot it around the orbital bone, staying clear of the lash line, and pat it in with your ring finger.
- Follow with your regular face moisturiser rather than skipping it, since this step alone is not a full moisturiser replacement.
Worth knowing
- Skin that is actively broken out or irritated does best starting this once daily before moving to twice.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding shoppers should run any new skincare step past their own physician before adding it.
