PRODUCTS I 🖤 AND BELIEVE IN : Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydra-Gel Eye Patches

These Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydra-Gel Eye Patches are the 💣! Sometimes my under-eye area just can’t get enough hydration and the fine dehydration lines are, well, eye-opening.

Quick Solution: a hydrating under-eye patch, of course. Think of them as a high-tech version of a cucumber slice! Using the same delivery technology as a sheet mask, patches made and shaped specifically for the eye area deeply hydrate tapped out skin and seal in moisture so it can only go one way — into your thin, dehydrated under-eye skin below it. That's precisely what makes a cucumber slice unusually effective. It cools, calms and prevents moisture from evaporating, thus flooding the tissue below it with soothing hydration.

I LOVE THESE WEIRD LITTLE THINGS!

As with nearly all Peter Thomas Roth products, they’re very well formulated. In fact, Peter Thomas Roth is one of the four brands whose core formulation philosophy I most closely align with. That is, no denatured alcohol or fragrant plant oils (aka essential oils) in formulas packed with antioxidants, humectants, vitamins. The others are Drunk Elephant, Paula's Choice and DECIEM with its three sub-brands — The Ordinary, Hylamide and NIOD. With the Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydra-Gel Eye Patches, the first 10 ingredients on the packaging IL are literally all centered around promoting healthy, hydrated skin — emollients, humectants or skin loving vitamins, botanicals and antioxidants! That's how you make a quality skincare formula worth paying for.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I actually have a spare jar of my fave under-eye patches in my travel bag 🛩 and always apply them when I fly. The air in a plane is the most dehydrating your skin ever faces. And these eye patches are the only option short of hauling a humidifier on board! Hmm... 🤔

You can find them at Sephora (of course!).
