Thanks to a Stylekorean collaboration which enabled me to try several eye creams namely, Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Bakuchiol Eye Cream, Heimish Marine Care Eye Cream, Tocobo Collagen Brightening Eye Gel Cream, Be The Skin Vitavita Circle Zero Eye Cream and this current one is the last eye cream which I will be reviewing in this post.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
Mary & May Tranexamic Acid + Glutathione Eye Cream is a 30g product in a silver tube. The white cream with a silicone consistency dispenses easily and glides smoothly on the undereye area.
How To Use :
1) Squeeze a small amount of product on your ring finger and apply around the eye area. Gently tap into the skin to absorb.
2) Use in AM and PM.
Performance and Ingredients
Free from animal testing and 16 harmful ingredients: paraben, artificial fragrance and colors, alcohol, mineral oil, surfactants and allergens, Mary & May Tranexamic Acid + Glutathione Eye Cream is dermatologically tested and formulated only with EWG green grade ingredients.
It is a functional eye cream that suppresses the formation of melanin, which leads to dark circles and blemishes, and removes free radicals to intensively brighten the dull tone around the eyes and care for the areas where blemishes are troubled all over the face.
The ingredients are promising, the tube is large for its price, the lightweight cream has a smooth silicone consistency, applies and sinks in well but unfortunately, I developed 1 milia seed on the left undereye after 4 months which thankfully subsided after a month. Adding on, I didn't see much brightening effect even after emptying the tube.
The key ingredients are...
Tranexamic Acid 1000ppm : Known for its exceptional safety and stability, effectively inhibits melanin production in skin cells, reducing dark circles and pigmentation. It blocks melanin formation and eliminates activated oxygen that causes skin discoloration and wrinkles.
Glutathione 1,000ppm : Helps to reduce melanin production, the pigment responsible for skin color, leading to a brighter and more even skin tone
Vitamin C 2% : Improve skin blemishes and help produce collagen.

Conclusion
To conclude, Mary & May Tranexamic Acid + Glutathione Eye Cream has a promising ingredient list and the generous tube size offers good value for money but the results fell a little short for me.
The lightweight cream has a smooth, silicone-like texture that applies easily and absorbs well into the skin. However, despite finishing the entire tube, I didn’t notice any significant brightening effect. It may work better for those looking for a basic eye cream with a silky finish, but if you're specifically seeking visible brightening results, this might not be the one.
My last 3 Mary & May products were Mary & May Cica Soothing Sun Cream and Mary & May Niacinamide Serum and Mary & May CICA Houttuynia Tea Tree Calming Mask.
