Combat and Revitalize Eyelid Skin with CITYSTEM™: Get Your Eyelid Skin on the Defensive
Why We Love Eyes Uses CITYSTEM™ Active for Eye Cream Formulation and What the Benefits Are for Your Eyelid Skin
Modern day stressors on the delicate eyelid skin is a concern for my patients. Pollution, the sun, computer screens, phones, lack of sleep - these are all modern day stressors that can create fatigued and dull looking eyes. CITYSTEM™ is an active that addresses both environmental and screen light pollution damage.
You can find CITYSTEM™ in my eye cream formulation, Urbaneyes™ Hyaluronic Defense Eye Glass®.

What Is CITYSTEM™ Active?
CITYSTEM™ is a 100% natural, plant-derived active from Croda. It earned the PCHi Fountain Award for Outstanding Active Ingredient in 2017. In tests, it restored autophagic functions altered by pollution, helping detoxify skin cells and maintain a smooth, flawless appearance.
How CITYSTEM™ Protects Eyelid Skin
Defense Against Pollution
CITYSTEM™ shields the eyelid skin from airborne pollutants and blue light emitted by screens. It forms a protective barrier that helps prevent cellular damage.
Restoration of Cellular Autophagy
By restoring autophagic activity, CITYSTEM™ helps eyelid cells clear out toxins. The result is healthier, more resilient eyelid skin that looks smooth and radiant over time.
Improved Texture and Radiance
Regular use of CITYSTEM™ refines eyelid skin grain and makes blackheads less visible. It leaves the eyelid area feeling soft, smooth, and purified.
Ingredient Transparency
CITYSTEM™ is the brand name of the active. On our ingredient list, you will find it listed as Glycerin (and) Marrubium Vulgare Extract. This combination enhances both moisture balance and environmental defense.
Glycerin is a humectant, a type of moisturizing agent that pulls water into the outer layer of your eyelid skin from deeper levels and the air.
Marrubium Vulgare Extract is an extract from the Horehound plant (Marrubium Vulgare L, Lamiaceae) which belongs to the mint family. It soothes sensitive and dry eyelid skin (e.g. from sun exposure) and also helps to reduce and calm eyelid skin irritations (e.g. from skin care products such as sunscreen).
