There’s one thing I’ve missed in my local Primark store…under eye patches! For some reason they haven’t been stocked when I’ve visited. My last visit I went in for a lip liner for my teenage daughter and there they were waiting for me! Under eye patches I enjoy using if they’re a decent quality. With someone who suffers with hay fever, plus my under eyes really do show the world how my life is going, I find these a great quick fix. So what under eye patches did I find, what do they do and how much do they cost?
Brightening & Depuffing Eye Patches
Containing 15 treatments (assuming this means 15 pairs of under eye patches), these eye patches contain Vitamin C, peptides and liquorice root extract. These are designed to help the under eye area appear less dull, brighter and help with puffiness making this area appear less tired. £1.50.
Hydrate + Revitalise Eye Patches
Containing 15 treatments (again), these eye patches are designed to hydrate, soothe and help with puffiness and dark circles. Ingredients include caffeine, lavender extract, Vitamin E and collagen. £1.50.
Hydrate Hyaluronic Acid Gel Eye Patches
Containing 3 pairs of under eye patches which should be more gel like in look and feel than traditional tissue like masks are made from. These eye masks are all about keeping the under eyes nourished, hydrated, relaxed and soothed. £1.80.
Thoughts?
Under eye masks aren’t designed to change the eye area massively and permanently. They give this area of the face a simple pick me up, which is temporary. Great for general pampering, some extra relief if the under eye area is dry, stressed or tired. These under eye patches are all affordable, contain more than one pair of under eye masks which means these can be used daily, and not kept just for a treat (if needed). Great to pop into the fridge for an added cooling effect, and dragged out before use. So if all these do is stay secure on the face, hydrate, comfort and relax the eyes, then job is done!
PS. I bought 2 packs!
