Nyx Night Eye Balm
A rich, 100% natural night balm for the eye area, built on sea buckthorn oil to support overnight repair. It's wonderful botanical base formula works to soften fine lines, deeply moisturize and rejuvenate the delicate skin around your eyes.
NYX. For the night.
In Greek mythology, Nyx was the goddess of night, and not a gentle one. She rode her chariot across the dark sky answerable to no one, and she was powerful enough that even Zeus thought better of crossing her.
Where EOS opens the gates each morning, Nyx holds the hours before. The half of the day nobody watches, and the half that matters most.
Six months in the making
An eye balm has been the thing customers asked us for most, for years. It took us over six months to get right, and as with every product we've ever made, Tommy tested it on himself the whole way through.
Built for the hours off duty
NYX shares its nourishing base with its other half, EOS: meadowfoam seed oil, squalane, cocoa butter, and candelilla wax, with bakuchiol and bisabolol through both.
Where they part company is deliberate. EOS leans on açaí berry oil for the day ahead. NYX is built around sea buckthorn oil, one of the very few natural sources of omega-7 fatty acids, alongside carotenoids and vitamin E.
It is rich, and it is meant to be. Nothing is asked of your skin overnight, so this is the one you can afford to go heavier with.
Made for the eye area, properly
Because this is applied so close to the eye, it carries no essential oils and no added fragrance. What you can smell is the ingredients themselves, warm, earthy, and faintly of cocoa. Nothing has been added to make it smell of anything at all.
100% natural. 100% vegan. Candelilla wax instead of beeswax, so there is nothing from animals in it. Handmade in the Garden of Scotland, and never tested on animals.
10ml
NYX has another half. Pair it with EOS for the morning, or buy the two together and save.
Limnanthes alba seed oil (meadowfoam seed oil), Squalane, Theobroma cacao seed butter (cocoa seed butter), Euphorbia cerifera wax (candelilla wax), Hippophae rhamnoides fruit oil (sea buckthorn fruit oil), Bakuchiol, Bisabolol, Tocopherol (vitamin E)
Allergens: None.
Sea Buckthorn Fruit Oil: Supports overnight skin repair
Sea buckthorn fruit oil is one of the few natural sources of omega-7 (palmitoleic acid), alongside vitamins A, C and E and a dense concentration of carotenoids. It supports the skin barrier, helps calm the look of inflammation, and is associated with supporting collagen production and softening the appearance of fine lines and past sun damage, exactly the kind of restorative work skin does best overnight.
Bakuchiol: A gentle, plant-derived retinol alternative
Bakuchiol is a plant-derived alternative to retinol. It supports smoother, more even-looking under-eye skin and helps soften the appearance of fine lines overnight, without the sensitivity that can come with traditional retinoids, important for skin as thin and reactive as the eye area.
Bisabolol: Calms and soothes the under-eye area
Bisabolol is a calming derivative of chamomile. It helps soothe the delicate under-eye area and supports a more comfortable, less irritated feel. Ideal for skin that's been rubbed, mascara'd and squinted at a screen all day.
Squalane: deep, lightweight hydration
Squalane closely resembles the skin's own natural oils, so it absorbs readily and helps lock in moisture without ever feeling heavy or greasy. Essential for a balm that needs to sit comfortably around the eyes all night.
Meadowfoam Seed Oil: long-lasting conditioning
Meadowfoam seed oil is exceptionally stable and rich in long-chain fatty acids. It deeply conditions and helps reinforce the skin barrier, and is also part of why this balm keeps so well without synthetic preservatives.
Cocoa Seed Butter: Rich, overnight seal
Cocoa seed butter is a naturally emollient butter that helps seal in moisture and the other actives while you sleep. It's what gives NYX its rich, balm-like texture and that soft, warm scent.
Using your ring finger as it naturally applies the lightest pressure, apply a small amount gently around the orbital bone, working from the inner corner outward. Avoid direct contact with the eye itself.
Use nightly as the last step in your evening routine, before bed.
A note from us if you have not used our products before: This will most likely be your first experience of a water-free, fully concentrated formula, so it will go further than you'd expect. Apply less than you think.
Is NYX Night Eye Balm safe to use around sensitive eyes?
Yes. NYX is fragrance-free with no essential oils, formulated specifically for the delicate skin around the eye. As with any new product, we'd always recommend a small patch test first if you have particularly reactive skin.
Why does NYX have a scent if it's fragrance-free?
Our ingredients is absolutely natural and all of them have a certain scent. Sea buckthorn has a warm, earthy character, and cocoa seed butter brings a soft, chocolatey note. What you're smelling is the natural scent of the ingredients themselves.
Is NYX Night Eye Balm vegan?
Yes. We use candelilla wax rather than beeswax, so both NYX and EOS are entirely vegan.
How long does a 10ml eye balm last?
Because the formula is water-free and concentrated, a little goes further than you'd think. Used nightly (both eyes), most people find a jar lasts around 2–3 months.
Can I use NYX in the morning, or EOS at night?
While it is perfectly fine if you want to choose between the two and only use one for day and night routine, they're formulated for their specific moment. NYX contains sea buckthorn oil for overnight repair, EOS contains açaí berry for daytime protection.
We'd always recommend using each as intended. We have created a the Night & Day Set which means you're never caught without the right one.
If you really want to only choose one: Choose Nyx if you have mature skin and you're concerned about fine lines, choose Eos if you're more concerned about protection as that's great for younger skin.
