Eyecicle: Peptide Eye Serum
Targets the lines around your eyes at their mechanical source, not just the dryness on the surface. Eyecicle is built around a dual peptide complex, Acetyl Octapeptide-3 and Pentapeptide-18, that works on the repeated muscle contractions behind the look of crow’s feet and under-eye creasing, with a cold-preserved galactomyces ferment and niacinamide to brighten and strengthen the thin skin there, plus cucumber and mayblossom to calm puffiness. Formulated in small weekly batches and kept at 4°C from raw ingredient to finished bottle, so the peptides keep the exact shape they need to signal with. A silky, lightweight fluid that absorbs fast, layers cleanly under makeup, and leaves no greasy residue. No heavy oils, no chemical preservatives, because cold does their job.

How to Use
- After cleansing and moisturizing, dispense 1-2 drops onto your ring finger
- Gently pat (never rub) around the entire orbital bone, from the inner corner outward
- Allow 30-60 seconds for absorption
- In the morning, apply before sunscreen; in the evening, apply as your last step and let the peptides work overnight

Common Questions
No. It’s a targeted eye treatment. The dual peptide complex works on the muscle contractions behind the look of crow’s feet and under-eye creasing, while the ferment, niacinamide, and botanicals brighten and calm puffiness. Apply it after your moisturizer, morning and evening.
Most customers notice the eye area looking smoother and less puffy within the first two to three weeks. Deeper, more set-in lines soften more gradually with consistent twice-daily use.
Most customers finish the 8 ml bottle in 6 to 8 weeks using 1 to 2 drops twice daily. The formula is concentrated, so a little goes further than you’d expect.
Yes. Eyecicle contains no heavy oils, waxes, or residue-leaving ingredients. Pat gently around the orbital bone and avoid the lash line, and it wears well with extensions.

Cold-preserved from the moment it's formulated: no warm warehouses, no months on a shelf, no chemical stabilizers. Three actives reach your skin at the same potency as the day they were made. Tap a card to see the mechanism.
Works at the muscle, not the surface
Two peptides that work on the look of expression lines at different points in the signaling cascade. Acetyl Octapeptide-3 calms the muscle contraction at the application site, the repeated tightening that folds crow’s feet and under-eye creasing over time. Pentapeptide-18 works upstream, easing the signal that triggers those contractions in the first place. Together they address expression lines at their source instead of masking them with moisture. The effect depends on each peptide keeping its exact three-dimensional shape, the first thing heat takes apart.
Refines and strengthens thin skin
The same cold-preserved galactomyces ferment used in Gaea’s Gala toner: a metabolite-rich filtrate that refines the look of skin texture and brightens the under-eye area. Niacinamide strengthens the moisture barrier, which matters more around the eyes than anywhere else on your face, where skin is thin and loses moisture fast. It also supports capillary-wall integrity, which helps soften the look of dark circles over time.
Calms, cools, and de-puffs
The de-puffing layer. Cucumber soothes and helps reduce the fluid retention behind morning puffiness. Mayblossom (Crataegus monogyna) flower extract supports microcirculation around the orbital area, helping address the sluggish flow that leaves the eyes looking tired and shadowed. Lightweight and residue-free, so you can apply before bed without waking up puffy.
Conventional skincare vs Wild Ice
One degree-day = one degree above refrigeration, for one day.
237× the heat exposure before it ever touches your face. Peptides that never lost their shape keep doing what you bought them for: working on the muscle contractions behind the look of fine lines and puffiness.

More on why heat matters
Three short chapters: the journey, the chemistry, and the beauty-fridge problem
The Journey That Adds Up
The Problem Was Never Your Routine.
Preservatives fight one problem. Heat causes three.
1
Bacterial Digestion
Bacteria multiply in warm formulas. Preservatives suppress them. Cold slows them too, without adding to what your skin has to absorb.
2
Redox Reactions
Heat drives chemical reactions that degrade vitamin C, ceramides, and peptides. Preservatives don't slow this process. Cold does.
3
Enzymatic Activity
Plant enzymes keep breaking down botanical compounds after harvest. Preservatives don't affect this. Cold puts them on pause.
Cold Can't Unspoil the Banana
Everyone wants fresh skincare. That's why beauty fridges are everywhere. But chilling a conventional serum makes about as much sense as refrigerating an old banana.
Your serum absorbed 1,956 degree-days of heat before it ever met a fridge. A banana at least has the courtesy to turn brown; a degraded cream looks and feels identical to a fresh one.
Beauty fridges make conventional skincare cold at the end. Wild Ice is cold from the beginning.
From our studio to your door
Cold from the very first step
Every Eyecicle bottle is formulated in small weekly batches in our studio and held cold at 4°C, from raw ingredient through formulation.
Ingredients kept cold
Every ingredient stored at 4°C from the moment it arrives.
Formulated fresh
Formulated in small weekly batches, cold throughout.
Held at 4°C
Finished bottles go straight into cold storage and stay there.
Shipped within days
Made fresh weekly, so actives are still active when they reach you.
Between warm warehouses, hot freight, and un-chilled retail shelves, it's nearly impossible to get big while staying cold. The industry won't change until enough customers demand it. Someone had to take the plunge first, so we did.
Fresh was never optional
I grew up in the Soviet Union watching my grandmother make skincare from her garden. It worked because it was fresh. There was no other option.
In 2018, I began cold-storing every ingredient and finished product. I hadn't changed a single formula; the reviews changed on their own. A national retailer offered us shelf placement but refused to refrigerate. We walked away.
Every product is made in our studio, in small weekly batches. I've worn every formula through three pregnancies. Every bottle is one I'd use on my own family.
