In my ongoing hunt for great travel beauty products, I often look at products which are once use only or disposable, as they are great for saving space in your luggage. And when it comes to giving your skin a boost, while it’s nice to have a facial on holiday, sometimes you need a quick fix for tired skin or in my case, the eye area in particular. So when I heard that Nerium International had launched EYE-V™ MOISTURE BOOST Hydrogel Patches, I was excited. For one, these patches are designed to help hydrate, brighten and firm the look of tired eyes, making any traveller arrival ready, or they can be used for a boost while you’re away from home. They’re also one use only; you can pop a pair open when you’re in need, apply and instantly revitalise the skin beneath your eyes without fuss.
Launching on April 1, the Hydrogel Patches deliver key ingredients to the delicate eye area to improve dryness, puffiness, or dull and slack looking skin, which can happen due to the dehydrating effects long haul flights, or too many late nights having fun. They feature ThermoReact™ technology combined with a host of hydrating ingredients in a seaweed and pea-based patch; sleek and super-cooling they deliver a quick, targeted, hydrating boost like an instant “eye lift” feel. Some of the ingredients include soothing aloe leaf juice water, mushroom-derived hyaluronic acid, glycerin and hydromoist — an ingredient that can hold up to 5,000 times its weight in water. The patches are also created from nutrient rich seaweed and pea extracts for their restorative and resiliency properties and gentleness on skin and the environment.
Using them is easy; just apply one patch beneath each eye, making sure your skin is cleansed and dry, and with the embossed “N” away from the skin, then relax for 20 minutes. These patches will stay cool and stay-put; I was able to write the majority of this blog sitting at my desk wearing a pair. There are five sets in each box which come individually wrapped, and for added cooling benefits, if convenient, you can put a set in a refrigerator for five minutes before using. Nerium’s EYE-V™ MOISTURE BOOST Hydrogel Patches are free of artificial colorants, parabens and fragrance, and they’re suitable for even sensitive skins. And best of all, you’ll see an instant difference to the quality of the skin under your eyes. They cost $85 for a pack of five, available from www.nerium.com.
