The Eye Serum — frequently asked questions

What is Musely's The Eye Serum used for?
The Eye Serum is designed to treat common under-eye concerns including wrinkles, fine lines or "crow's feet", puffiness, eye bags, and dark circles. It's now enhanced with Exosomes for even greater skin rejuvenation benefits.
What are Exosomes, and why are they included in the new formula?
Exosomes are cutting-edge skincare ingredients known for their ability to promote skin cell communication and regeneration. They help improve elasticity and inflammation, and accelerate skin healing, delivering results for the delicate under-eye area.
What ingredients are in the new formula of The Eye Serum?

The new formula includes:

  • Tretinoin
  • Caffeine
  • Hyaluronic Acid
  • Niacinamide
  • Vitamin C
  • Bisabolol (Chamomile Extract)
  • iPSC Exosomes
  • Hydroquinone for pigmentation concerns
What changed in the updated The Eye Serum formula?
We removed tacrolimus, which caused irritation for some patients, and added exosomes — a breakthrough ingredient that supports skin regeneration and renewal. The result: a more advanced formula designed to deliver more powerful results with a gentler touch.
Do I need a prescription for The Eye Serum?
Yes, Musely's The Eye Serum is prescription-strength and requires an online Doctor Visit with a Musely board-certified dermatologist.
Is The Eye Serum different from an under eye cream?

Musely's The Eye Serum stands apart from a traditional under eye cream by offering a prescription-strength, results-driven formula designed to tackle deeper skin concerns like fine lines, puffiness, and dark circles. Unlike a conventional eye repair cream that typically focuses on hydration and surface-level improvements, Musely's serum includes clinically potent ingredients such as tretinoin, exosomes, hydroquinone, caffeine, and niacinamide to stimulate skin regeneration, reduce pigmentation, and improve elasticity.

This makes it a more comprehensive solution for aging and discoloration around the eyes. Its lightweight, fast-absorbing texture ensures deeper penetration of actives - something thicker, moisture-based eye creams often lack. While traditional eye creams can be a good choice for simple hydration, Musely's Eye Serum is better suited for people looking for visible, transformative change.

How does The Eye Serum differ from a retinol eye cream?

Musely's The Eye Serum differs from retinol-based eye creams mainly in strength and effectiveness. It uses prescription tretinoin, which is a retinoid that is up to 20x more potent than over-the-counter retinol, delivering faster and more noticeable results. It also includes advanced ingredients like exosomes, hydroquinone, niacinamide, and caffeine to target not just fine lines but also dark circles and puffiness.

By contrast, retinol eye creams are considered gentler and better for sensitive skin or early signs of aging but typically take longer to show results and don't address pigmentation as effectively.

How long does it take to see results?
Most patients start to see visible improvements in 6-8 weeks, with full results appearing around the 12-week mark. Consistency is key!
How do I use The Eye Serum?
Apply one pump to clean, dry skin under the eyes at night. Wait 5 minutes, then apply a gentle moisturizer. Be sure to wear SPF 30+ during the day, as the serum may increase sun sensitivity.
Are there any side effects?
Some users may experience mild redness, dryness, peeling, or sensitivity to sunlight. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult your Musely dermatologist.
Can I use The Eye Serum with other Musely treatments?
Yes, The Eye Serum pairs well with The Anti-Aging Cream and The Spot Cream. Always consult your dermatologist before combining treatments.
