Heimish Hydrogel Eye Patch Bulgarian Rose Water

I'm enjoyed the Heimish Hydrogel Eye Patch Bulgarian Rose Water eye patches especially in the summer. I put the whole container in the refrigerator and used them when I wanted to freshen up my face on a hot humid day. I like the cooling and instant effect of these on my skin.I am not a fan of the rosy scent so I won't be buying them anymore. Eye patches are such look- and feel-alike products that I will definitely have some good alternative to these.

Claims from the manufacturer:

The unique highly elastic hydro-gel material allows essence to fully absorb into skin for maximum benefits.
Can be used anywhere skin needs extra care such as forehead and cheeks.
These soft eye patches not only brighten dark circles under eyes, but also help skin stay firm and bouncy.
 The star ingredient, Bulgarian rose water, is full of skin-benefiting vitamins and minerals, plus ultra-hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties.

My experience:

Heimish Hydrogel Eye Patch Bulgarian Rose Water patches have a strong floral scent. I am personally not a fan of this particular rose fragrance as it gives me a bit of a headache. Patches come in 60-pack and are good for 30 times use if applied under the eye area. You can also apply these patches on your forehead or laugh lines if you need more plumping and skin smoothing. The patches are non-irritating and hydrating and have a nice size to cover the ender-eye area in a nice way.

The essence is transparent and very viscous yet it tends to glide on the face causing patches to slide down for the first 5 minutes. Essence tends to pill under the make-up and is not concealer/foundation friendly for me. I have to wipe it away before I can apply my make-up. Wearing time is approximately 30 minutes but you can remove them after 20 if you don't have much time in the morning.

I put the whole container in the refrigerator and used these in the summer when I wanted to freshen up my face or reduce my under-eye bags in the morning. I tend to hold on to liquids easily and these became a life-saver on hot humid days. The cooling and smoothing effects are instantly seen but the same goes for nearly every other hydrogel type of patch. Unfortunately the effects don't last you the entire day.

If you need basic hydration and want to try Heimish brand, hydrogel eye patches are a nice product to start with. Heimish makes several great products that compete well with high-end brands. All skin types could easily benefit from that little treat. Unfortunately, I am still hunting down the eye patches that would have more cumulative effect and I am open to suggestions. Let me know if you found a product that works great for you for reducing under eye wrinkles in patch form.

Pros:

+ Alcohol, paraben, sulfate and silicone free formulation
+ Contains niacinamide, adenosine, hyaluronic acid, allantoin, titanium dioxide and arginine
+ Richly saturated in viscous essence
+ Economic in use
+ Good price : quantity ratio
+ Moderate hydration of under-eye area
+ Visible skin smoothing and de-puffing on my skin
+ Good for all skin types

Cons:

— Essence is quite slippery so patches tend to move around the face
– Somewhat hard to get in EU
– Contains fragrance
– Strong rose scent that is headachy for me
