Hey beauty buddies!

 

hope all is well! I have a question for you. Does anyone use under eye patches? I see them chatted about and I'm just curious as to your thoughts  or experiences.  Thanks!

I have tried them and didn't like them nor did I see any real difference.  They are kind of messy, and if the patches you purchase have a "pointed" end, depending on your eye shape, you can get it too close to your eye and it is annoying.

I just bought two kinds on the 21 days of beauty sale. I haven't tried them yet. Let us know what the reviewer says.

I think they may offer some immediate hydration and plumping but likely no long term benefits.

I don't see the purpose of an eyepatch either. I think it is made popular by some influencers on SM. It is their unique content every morning along with a cup of matcha?Woman Wink

Adrienne Arpel---from HSN--had some that I bought that I used every once in awhile and they did seem to re- hydrate my under eyes. Looked nice but of course was just temporary. This was years ago. I need to see a surgeon to be rid of the bags under my eyes!!

Considering they only go on for a short time, I would think using a cream or serum would be more beneficial.

For undereye bags the best suggstion I can give other than surgery is to use something that contains caffeine.

Yes, I have used them.  I have some Peter Thomas Roth undereye patches.  I like to apply them while with lots of hydrating serums under them.  I can't say that they do anything.  It feels nice and to some, it might help with undereye puffiness but it didn't help with mine.
