The under eye patches you need for brighter skin

There are masks for the face, body and toes, and now there is even a special mask for the skin under the eyes to help suppress the appearance of problems such as puffiness and dark circles. Often referred to as under-eye pads or patches, these eye masks have made a splash in the beauty industry and we can't say we're surprised. Many of them are able to transform the look of the eye contour so that it appears brighter. At least that's what you can expect from Lancôme Absolue L'Extrait Ultimate Eye Patch. We tried the luxury eye mask and share a full review of the product.

BENEFITS OF PADS AND UNDER EYE PATCHES

Scroll through your favorite influencers' social media feeds and there's a good chance you'll find eye pads and eye patches in a few posts. Besides a selfie-worthy moment, these patches can help improve the appearance of common eye problems. If you're a busy bee or night owl, you probably know firsthand how lack of sleep can affect the look of your skin. When we feel tired, our skin can certainly show it.

To help pretend you've had a good night's sleep, or at least make it less obvious that you're getting too few hours of sleep, you can, in a pinch, reach for an eye patch or patch. While they don't replace real sleep, they can help your skin look more radiant while you're out and about. What else? They are incredibly easy to use. Similar to a cheek or T-zone mask, you can apply an eye mask at home, while flying, in the car, during your lunch break, and more.  

LANCOME ABSOLUTE THE ULTIMATE EYE PATCH REVIEW EXTRACT

What it does: Absolue L'Extrait Ultimate Eye Patch delivers instant plumping, plumping, and radiant under-eye coverage. As a result, the area around the eyes may appear brighter.

Why I love it:  As someone who is constantly on the go, I am guilty of not sleeping as much as I should. So when it comes to under eye radiance, I look forward to trying every single product that claims to help.

As the last step of my overnight routine, I applied each bandage to the skin under my eyes and left it on for 10 minutes. As soon as I took it off, I immediately noticed a glow. As a result, my skin under my eyes looked noticeably better than before.

How to use: Remove the package and place each bandage on the skin under the eyes. After 10 minutes, remove the patches and massage in the rest of the product.
