Your under-eye area is often the first to reveal a sleepless night. Whether it’s dehydration, seasonal allergies or too many happy hour vinos, the thin and delicate skin around your eyes can often be the hardest area to treat. This is why we’re big advocates for treating your crow’s feet, dark circles or puffiness to regular nourishing eye masks.
However, to ensure you’re spending your time and money effectively, we’ve compiled a roundup of the under-eye patches that will do some serious heavy-lifting, leaving you bright-eyed, de-puffed and glowing in all of 15 minutes.

Do you use eye masks? Which of these do you like the sound of the most?
I have tried several Skin Republic face masks and under eye patches. Love using these products, trying the different brands of face masks and under eye patches.
Have never really tried under eye masks and should definitely give them a go cause they seem so good
I feel the same way
I’ve only ever tried the Blaq eye masks. They are good, but I would like to try others.
I’m going to buy some of these and give them a whirl. I’m sick of my under eyebags
I am too, I always have them. Nothing really helps them to the point where I’m thinking about some type of surgery to help minimize them.Would probably be too scared to go through with it though.
Thank you, I am going to try this out.
They are very good, I have tried almost everything.
I can’t live without them. A cheap tip is to buy them in bulk on eBay it’s like $15 for a 30 pack which is really good and they’re the exact same as all of the expensive ones.
That is a good price. Do you use them everyday and how well to they last?
That is a bargain!

Nobody on here cares about your stupid spam
haha, how ironic after what has been happening lately. Spam is ok to post, an actual spam.
Do you know what happened to the report spam button?
I’d like to have one tonight – might check through my collection of mask products to see if there’s one hiding in there….
I’ve used the Simple and the Skin Republic. I still have a few packs of different eye masks but I might buy the Garnier which look pretty cool.
I’m still yet to try an eye masks. I guess the best place to start is with a couple of these ones.
Yes! I am all about eye masks! The Skin Republic ones are one of my favourites!
Some of these are very good value and others are really on the expensive side. I have never used any of them.
Not tried under eye masks before but will give them a shot and see if they do any good
Lots of good products to choose from, a couple out of my price range. Nice to see a few affordable ones.
Skin Republic masks are quite good, love using them.
I’ve got some of the gold ones here and I should use them.
I use good face masks that reach over the eye area too
I like the look of the Estee Lauder ones
I have tried eye masks and tend to keep mine in the fridge to also give you a cooling effect.
I also have some reusable ones that you use on the whole eye area.
I’ve never tried one of these masks.
I got a sample from Mecca and they were great… very hydrating 🙂
I like the sounds of the Simple hydrogel ones
I love using these just for the hydration.
I brought the simple one but have not used it
I’ve tried one before but I didn’t notice any results
I’ve tried a few different eye masks and haven’t been overly impressed with any of them, I hate having dark ciand looking permanently exhausted
I have’nt gotten around to trying an eye mask yet. Some of these look good.
I love the Skin Republic under eye masks
I need all of these, right now.
I need some eye masks asap.
I can’t keep regular face masks like these on so under eye ones are not for me either
Awesome and very affordable prices too
Have never tried using Eye Masks something I will be trying with my puffy eyes and dark circles. At the moment I am using the Frozen Roller.
I really want to try the frozen ball rollers!
I have used Garnier’s face mask but haven’t tried the eye mask yet.
I’d love to try the 111 Skin Eye Masks but the Garnier ones are probably more in my price range.. I’d be keen to try these out and see if they can work their magic on my puffiness.
I love using eye masks. They really help with reducing puffiness.
Skin Republic has the best customer service. I’m a happy girl!
I’m a sucker for hydrogel eye masks! I’m looking for some clear ones to use in conjunction with my Current Body mask.
I find during winter, it is not appealing to put it on because it is so cold.
Thanks for the info
I really need to try these – dark circles are my problem. Maybe they’d help.
I’ve never tried eye masks, the Estée Lauder one sounds good. I have used the serum in this range and had great results with it.
I’ve tried the Estée Lauder one and it is good. I wish there was a reusable one, less wastage as well.
I actually am still to try eye masks! I haven’t tried any, but id love to try all of them lol
I love all kinds of eye masks and sheet masks. The simple products really interest me so that and the Garnier the most.
I was wondering if anyone knows which eye mask really works for dark circles.
Some great recommendations. I’ve tried the EL ones and they are great.
Skin Republic ones work well.
I’ve used some eye masks before, mostly from ACURE (the Radically Rejuvenating ones – picked up a whole bunch for a cheap price the last time I went to the US). I loved them, but of course went through them too quick. I also have some Patchology ones lying around, but I’m saving them for a special occasion as they’re on the exxy side.
I love eye masks, face masks, any mask! just feed my skin! Some of these sound soooo gooood!
