What do under eye patches do?

Some of the benefits of under eye patches are boosted hydration, improved feeling of skin smoothness and firmness, and reduced appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, and puffiness around the eyes.

How often should I use under eye patches?

Daily – I recommend wearing under eye patches every day to soothe and saturate your eye area with hydrating skincare.

A good pair of eye patches will have instant results. After one 10-minute wear time, eye patches can make the eye area look fresher, smoother, brighter, and more awake.

When to use under eye patches: morning or night?

You can wear under eye patches anytime, anywhere! Wear them in the morning as a refreshing way to start the day; during the day as a soothing, self-care ritual; in the evening before a night out; or before bed as part of your revitalising, nighttime routine.

Can you sleep with under eye patches on?

Yes – you can wear under eye patches to bed, but it’s a personal choice rather than a necessity. The serum in eye patches is designed to quickly absorb into the skin, so you are receiving all the benefits of wearing eye patches during a short wear time. Over the course of your beauty sleep, your eye patches will dry out and may fall off due to movement in your sleep. It won’t do any harm wearing eye patches to bed, but it won’t improve their performance either.

Do I use under eye patches before or after moisturiser?

Use eye patches before moisturiser – I recommend applying eye care before moisturising your face. With skincare, products will layer best when applied from thinnest formula to thickest. Moisturisers are generally thicker than an eye serum, so I find that wearing eye patches for 10 minutes then following up with a moisturiser like Charlotte’s Magic Cream is the best way to prep skin.

What ingredients should I look for in under eye patches?

The key benefits that you should look for from eye patches are hydration and anti-ageing effects. Look for eye patches that are formulated with hydrating skincare ingredients like hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and stimulants like caffeine to help improve the look of your eye area.

My Immediate Eye Revival Patches are powered by a Bio-Smooth Eye Contour Complex and Cushion, Absorb + Lock Technology to help give the eye area an immediate revival.

Bio-Smooth Eye Contour Complex:

Marine Biotech Ferment – rich in antioxidants that help to reduce the appearance of signs of ageing.

Coleus – more powerful than caffeine and helps to reduce the appearance of dark circles and puffiness.

Glycerin – softens, plumps, and smooths the look and feel of skin around the eyes.

Cushion, Absorb + Lock Technology:

Hyaluronic Acid Mesh Tech Matrix: fast-acting and slow-release moisture to provide instant and long-lasting hydration.

Are under eye patches suitable for all skin types?

Yes – everyone can benefit from wearing under eye patches. Dry and dehydrated skin types are prone to dry patches and dehydration lines around the eyes, and eye patches are one of the best ways to help remedy them. As for oily and combination skin types, the under eyes aren’t an area that is particularly prone to producing excess oil, allowing eye patches to sit comfortably on the skin without slipping and sliding around. As we age, fine lines and wrinkles become more deep set and dark circles and tired eyes can become a regularity, so eye patches are particularly beneficial for mature skin.

What age should you start wearing under eye patches?

It’s never too early to start wearing eye patches! Your 30s are often the first time you will notice your skin changing and signs of ageing becoming more prominent, and this is a perfect time to start wearing eye patches. However, wearing under eye patches feels so relaxing and luxurious, anyone of any age will benefit from wearing them, even those in their late teens and twenties.
