The patches are formulated with cooling melting spicules (a microneedling-inspired technology), plant-derived PDRN (from banana probiotics and green tea), caffeine, and niacinamide to lift and smooth fine lines, while reducing puffiness and plumping your skin. While they’re meant for your under-eye area, these patches can also be applied to the fine lines around your lips. 

As a shopping writer, I’ve tried and own many eye masks. My undereyes are dark, have a few wrinkles, and dry. Considering my job is looking at a screen for 8 hours every day, I tend to reach for under-eye masks for a little after-work treat. And I keep reaching for these LANEIGE ones.

They’re easy to put on, they don’t fall off, they’re cooling, and the formula isn’t too wet or too dry, so it won’t make a mess. I feel a little more awake after I take these off. Plus, it features a gorgeous pearly finish and doesn’t smell strongly.

While I can’t say that it made my under-eye lines completely disappear (that takes time), I can say that it made them a little smoother and more hydrated, without drowning my skin in thick and sticky serum. And really, that’s all I’m looking for in an eye mask!
