Dear readers,
It may happen that, at times, we are not looking our freshest, may it be because of a long day, stress, a crazy night out, a long flight, or whatever really. But there are so many reasons for our skin to be stressed and dried out by everyday elements. So, why not put on some eye patches to refresh it all up? They usually aren't limited to being used for hydrating your under-eye area but anywhere there are stubborn fine lines; neck, between eyebrows and around lips.
For the best hydration possible, apply the patch on the area you wish to hydrate and leave it off for 20-40 minutes. then, pat lightly the essence after removing the patch for better absorption. Also, if you want a cooling effect, you can leave the eye patch in the refrigerator before application.
My recommendations:
Best Overall: Petite Fee Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch ($9) Runner-Up: SNP Gold Collagen Eye Patch ($17)
Best Vitamin C Patches: Goodal Green Tangerine Vita C Eye Gel Patch ($20)
Best Snail Patch: Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Gold Eye Gel Patch ($16)
Best Packaging: TonyMoly Panda's Dream Eyes Patch (2$)
Best Dual Effect: SNP Gold Golden Duo Eye Patch ($...)
1. Best Overall: Petite Fee Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch
Rating: 4.5 / 5
Highlights:
Contains black pearl extract
Brightens under-eye area
Relieve puffy eyes
Provides cooling sensation
Great skin adhesion
What we don’t like:
A bit slippery
The PETITFEE Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch is a brilliant product containing premium ingredients to rejuvenate the tired and dull skin around your eyes. The under-eye circulation is improved thanks to black pearl and gold extract whilst green tea, wormwood, tangerine and rose water extracts give a boost of moisture and nutrients for bringing dull-looking eyes to life. It is totally worth your money and each pack contains 60 sheets soaked in this rich youth nectar essence. A little negative point is that the eye patch is so saturated with the serum that it tends to slide down your face.
Runner-Up: SNP Gold Collagen Eye Patch
Rating: 4 / 5
Highlights:
Excellent adherence
Skin tightening
Rapid absorption
Vitalizes skin
Multi-function patch
Jelly-type patch
What we don’t like:
Expensive
There are so many eye patches on the Korean market that simply picking a single best eye patch is just mission impossible. So I am presenting a second super best eye patch from SNP, which stands for Science (prioritize clients skin), Nature (safe & verified effective ingredients) and Purity (pure skin). this Korean brand developed a series of 4 different eye patches including their Gold Collagen Eye Patch. It contains 24K gold, pigskin collagen, adenosine as well as green tea extract which provides intense moisturization to the eyes by adding elasticity. It also possesses anti-wrinkles and firming properties. But what is best about this product is that it doesn't slip off your face due to its "eye fit" shape, which is super convenient.
2. Best Vitamin C Patches: Goodal Green Tangerine Vita C Eye Gel Patch
Rating: 4 / 5
Highlights:
Brightens under-eye
Plumping effect
Vitalizing eyes
Fast absorbing
Jelly-type patch
What we don’t like:
Expensive
I love vitamin C beauty products. First of all, love their brightening properties and second of all, the smell. So when I discovered this Vita-C Eye Gel Patch by Goodal (which I also loved their Vita-C moisturizer), I just didn't hesitate one bit and went ahead for trying it. It has no adherence and slipping-on-the-face type of problems, which is a bit plus. Then, it is formulated with green tangerine extract and Vitamin C to improve discolouration and revitalize the eye area. It totally boosts radiance in just a few minutes of application and doesn't generate any skin irritations.
3. Best Snail Patch: Mizon Snail Repair Intensive Gold Eye Gel Patch
Rating: 4 / 5
Highlights:
Intensive hydration
Formulated with snail mucin and collagen peptides
Tightens eye contour
Jelly-type patch
What we don’t like:
Slippery
You cannot talk about the Korean brand Mizon without mentioning at least one of their snail mucin-based products, and this Snail Repair Intensive Gold Eye Gel Patch is the perfect example of Mizon's product you want to mention because it truly works. So needless to mention, however, I will still do it but this product contains snail mucin (surprise surprise), 24k gold and 5 different collagen peptides to nourish and replenish the eye area intensively. So if you are a fan of slimy skincare products, I recommend trying this one for boosting your moisture level and keeping your skin soft and supple.
4. Best Packaging: TonyMoly Panda's Dream Eyes Patch
Rating: 3 / 5
Highlights:
Cutest packaging
Nice gift idea
Decent moisturization
Brightens dull under-eye
What we don’t like:
Not the best hydrating eye patches
Sheet-type patch
When it comes to doing cute packaging, you can count on TonyMoly. Their Panda's Dream Eye Patch is an eye sheet mask that totally surrounds your eyes and delivers brightening and vitality to dull and dry skin. The formula contains bamboo water extracts, niacinamide and vitamin B3.
5. Best Dual Effect: SNP Gold Golden Duo Eye Patch
Rating: 4 / 5
Highlights:
Brightening under-eyes
Tightens skin
Jelly-type patch
Deep essence hydration
Multi-purpose patch
