Step-by-step consumer usage:
Twist open the plated PP cap
Squeeze a small amount onto the zinc alloy tip or directly under the eye
Use the metal applicator to gently massage cream into under-eye area
Replace cap after use
Why the zinc alloy applicator works:
Puffiness – cool metal reduces swelling on contact
Dark circles – massage improves circulation
Fine lines – precise application prevents product waste
Sensitivity – no finger dragging means less irritation
Consumer tips:
Applicator feels cool at room temperature
For enhanced cooling, store tube in refrigerator
Metal retains cold longer than plastic or fingers
Formula compatibility:
Eye creams (medium viscosity) – excellent
Eye serums (low viscosity) – good (test for leakage)
Gel formulas – excellent
Oil-based treatments – excellent (PE is oil-resistant)
Water-based formulas – excellent
Limitations:
Not for high-viscosity pastes (too thick to squeeze)
Avoid formulas with sharp particles (can damage applicator surface)
Recommended pH range – 4.0 to 9.0
