Multi-Peptide Lash and Brow Serum is a lightweight lash and brow serum from The Ordinary, a brand based in Canada. The formula is built mainly around hydration and firmness signalling. The ingredient list runs to 30 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and Panthenol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Panthenol and Ethylhexylglycerin.
Firmness signalling: High. Peptides and growth factors that signal for collagen support, and here that comes from Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, Oligopeptide-2 and Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Sodium Benzoate, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17 and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract.
On richness alone it suits Balanced, Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control, brightening and tone and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
Use it in the morning. In a routine it goes taken with food. Follow the dose on the pack and check interactions with anything you already take.

No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
