Stop Puffy Eyes for Under $20

Ever wake up looking like you haven't slept a wink, even after a good night's rest? Puffy under-eyes are a common beauty suffering. There's a budget-friendly solution that dermatologists swear by PETITFEE Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch.

Why do puffy under-eyes happen?

Puffy under-eyes are caused by a multitude of factors, including:

• Fluid retention due to allergies, dehydration (ironically!), or even crying.
• Lack of sleep: When we're sleep-deprived, the delicate under-eye area can appear puffy and tired.
• Sun damage: Sun exposure contributes to collagen breakdown, leading to looser skin and a puffy appearance.
• Ageing: The skin naturally loses elasticity, making the under-eye area more prone to puffiness as we age.

PETITFEE Gold Hydrogel Patch: A cooling, depuffing K-beauty hero

Korea's PETITFEE Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch has gained a loyal following for a reason.

These Korean patches deliver hydration to the under-eye area as they're infused with colloidal gold and botanical extracts. This plumps the skin, reducing puffiness and creating a smoother appearance.

The hydrogel material feels refreshingly cool on contact, instantly depuffing and soothing tired eyes. Perfect for mornings after a late night or long day staring at screens.

These K-beauty patches are pre-cut and designed to comfortably fit under your eyes. Simply, apply them to clean, dry skin and leave them on for 15-20 minutes. At around $18 for a pack of 60 patches, they're a budget-friendly way to achieve noticeable results.

Dermatologists explain that the Gold Hydrogel Patch work due to their key ingredient, colloidal gold, which has anti-inflammatory properties reducing puffiness. Additionally, the hydrating benefits of the hydrogel material contribute to a depuffing effect.

For a one-two punch against puffiness and dark circles, pair the PETITFEE patches with SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Advanced Triple Action Eye Cream.

Apply a pea-sized amount of the Retinol Intense Advanced Triple Action Eye Cream to the under-eye area, patting it gently into the skin. After applying the cream (and allowing it to absorb fully), place the Gold Hydrogel patches and relax for 15-20 minutes.
