Actives: Tocopherol, Caffeine, Retinol. Base: Mineral Oil, Beeswax, Petrolatum. Patch: PE micro-point face. That is the complete list — no fragrance, no dye, no alcohol, no preservative system, because there is no water in the formula for anything to grow in.

  • Wash your hands, then your face. Pat completely dry.
  • Open a sachet and lift the clear film off the patch.
  • Place it over the crease you want to treat — under-eye, outer corner, between the brows or laugh line — and press flat for ten seconds.
  • Leave on at least two hours — overnight is fine.
  • Peel off and press in whatever balm is left. Don't rinse.
  • Use two to three times a week. One pair covers one area, both sides.

This contains retinol. Don't use it if you're pregnant or nursing, if you're already on a prescription retinoid, or on broken or irritated skin. Keep it off the eyelid and out of the eye itself. Retinol makes skin more sensitive to sunlight, so wear sunscreen. Patch test on your inner forearm first if you know your skin runs reactive, and stop if you get lasting redness or stinging.

Orders leave the warehouse in one to two business days. Free US shipping over $50 and on every subscription. If it isn't working for you, tell us inside 60 days and we'll refund it — you don't need to send anything back.

My concealer stopped creasing

That was the whole reason I bought them. I do a patch the night before anything I'm being photographed at. By morning the crease that usually eats my concealer just isn't as deep.

Works past the under-eye

I bought them for under-eyes and now I use a pair on my crow's feet too. Leaving it on the skin for two hours does something a cream never did.

Start slow, seriously

I did five nights in a row out of the gate and got a bit pink and flaky. Backed off to three times a week like the instructions say and it's been fine since. My fault, not theirs.

Real customers

Real people. Real mornings.

Six ingredients

Three that do the work.
Three that hold them there.

Most eye products list thirty ingredients and bury the three that matter. This one has six — so here they all are, what each is for, and what isn’t in it.

ACTIVE 01

Retinol

INCI: Retinol

The active with the longest research history behind the look of fine lines. Here it's held flat against the skin for two hours instead of rubbed in and absorbed by your pillowcase.

ACTIVE 02

Caffeine

INCI: Caffeine

Tightens surface blood vessels for a few hours. That's the reason the area reads less puffy and less shadowed after a morning patch — it's a temporary look, and it's a real one.

ACTIVE 03

Vitamin E

INCI: Tocopherol

An antioxidant, and the reason the retinol in patch sixteen behaves like the retinol in patch one. It keeps the formula from oxidising in the sachet.

BASE 04

Mineral Oil

INCI: Paraffinum Liquidum

Carries the three actives. It doesn't feed skin bacteria, doesn't oxidise, and doesn't need a preservative — which is how a six-ingredient list stays a six-ingredient list.

BASE 05

Petrolatum

INCI: Petrolatum

The seal. It's what stops the actives evaporating off over two hours, and it's why the skin under the patch looks cushioned the second you peel it away.

BASE 06

Beeswax

INCI: Cera Alba

Gives the balm enough body to stay on a patch instead of running down your cheek. Not a skincare active — a structural one, and we'd rather say so.

And what isn’t in it

  • No prostaglandin analogues. None of the ingredient class linked to hollowing and darkening around the eye in lash serums — no bimatoprost, no isopropyl cloprostenate.
  • No fragrance. The most common cause of contact reactions in eye products. There is no upside to scenting something that sits eight millimetres from your eye.
  • No dyes, no alcohol, no water. No water means no preservative system, and a shorter list.

Percentages of each active are set by our manufacturer and printed on every carton. Not a drug and not a medical device — a cosmetic patch that changes how the eye area looks.

Two hours, two to three times a week

You didn’t do anything wrong. Your cream just ran out of time.

If you’ve spent years and a small fortune on eye creams and seen nothing, the formula probably wasn’t the problem. A cream gets about ninety seconds before it’s absorbed, smudged or on your pillowcase. A patch gets two hours, and it stays exactly where you put it.

STEP 01
Patting the face dry with a towel

Start clean and dry

Wash and pat dry. Nothing else on the skin first — serum or eye cream underneath and the patch slides off within the hour.

STEP 02
Pressing a patch under the eye

Place it where you want it

Lift off the clear film and set the patch over the crease — under-eye, crow’s feet, frown lines or laugh lines. Press flat for ten seconds.

STEP 03
Wearing the patches with a book and a mug

Leave it alone

Two hours minimum. Sleep in them if you want. Peel off, press in the rest of the balm, don't rinse.

Two to three times a week is the dose. One pair treats one area on both sides — eight pairs is three to four weeks.

Where it sits

Not a cream. Not a procedure.

The two-hour thing divides people.

Some love having a fixed window to sit still. Some find it a chore. Both kinds of review are below.

Started under my eyes, then tried a pair on my frown lines. Three weeks in and the whole area photographs differently. Two hours beats a cream that absorbs in ninety seconds.

Went too hard in week one and got flaky. Dropped to three times a week like the box says and it's been perfect since. Read the instructions, unlike me.

Morning puffiness is the thing I actually notice. I put a pair on while I answer emails and by the time I'm dressed the area has flattened out.

They work but two hours is a lot to ask of me. I've settled on Sunday nights only, which is probably not enough to see much. Honest three stars.

Bought them for under-eyes, kept them for my laugh lines. Six ingredients and they print all six — after years of forty-ingredient eye creams that's the part that sold me.

Reactive skin here. I patch tested on my arm for three days first and then went very slowly. No problems. I'd still say go slow if you're like me.

Placement

One shape. Four places it earns its keep.

The under-eye is what most people buy it for. After that they find the rest — the outer corner, the two lines between the brows, the fold from nose to mouth. Anywhere a crease has started to hold its shape.

Before you buy

Questions, answered plainly.

Partly, and we’d rather be specific than encouraging. A sudden change in your late thirties or forties is usually structural — oestrogen falling takes collagen and some of the fat pad with it, which is why a routine that worked for a decade suddenly stopped. No topical rebuilds a fat pad, and anything that claims to is lying to you. What a patch can change is the surface: how the crease catches light, how much the area holds fluid overnight, whether concealer settles by eleven. If what bothers you is texture and shadow, that is the part this works on. If it’s volume, a patch is not your answer and we’d rather you knew before you bought one.

Same active, different delivery, and that’s the whole point. If you’ve been using retinol nightly and stopped seeing change, the formula probably isn’t what failed — a cream around the eye is absorbed, smudged or on your pillowcase within about ninety seconds. This holds the same class of active flat against one spot for two hours under a seal. It’s not a stronger retinol. It’s a longer one.

No. The ingredient class behind the orbital fat-loss reports from lash serums is prostaglandin analogues — bimatoprost, isopropyl cloprostenate and relatives. None of them are in this, and the full six-ingredient list is printed on every carton and on this page. If you’ve been burned by a lash serum, that is the list to check, and we’d rather you checked it than took our word.

No, and we won't pretend otherwise. Clinical microneedling uses needles that pass through the skin surface to create a controlled injury. These are blunt polyethylene micro-points that rest on the surface and hold the balm flat against it. No piercing, no bleeding, no downtime. If you want the procedure, see a professional — this is a cosmetic patch.

You'll feel texture when you press it on, and most people describe a mild prickle for the first minute that fades. It shouldn't sting or burn. If it does, that's the retinol talking — take it off, wait a few days, and go back in at half the frequency.

Yes, and that is half the point. The crescent was drawn for the under-eye, but it sits just as well on crow’s feet at the outer corner, on the frown lines between the brows, and along a laugh line. One pair covers one area on both sides. Keep it off the eyelid itself and away from the lash line.

Two to three times a week, whichever area you are treating. The under-eye is the thinnest skin on your face and it does not reward enthusiasm. Eight pairs at twice a week is about a month; at three times a week, closer to three weeks.

Not on the same night. Two hours of occluded retinol on top of an acid or another retinoid is how people end up peeling. Alternate nights, and if you're on a prescription retinoid ask your dermatologist before adding this at all.

Skip it. Topical retinol is routinely avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Come back afterwards.

None. There are six ingredients and none of them is a fragrance, a masking scent or an essential oil. The balm has a faint neutral smell that comes from the base itself.

No. The balm is spent after one two-hour wear and a used patch has nowhere clean to live. One sachet, one treatment, both eyes, then bin it.

Email us inside 60 days and we'll refund the order. Keep the boxes, use them up, give them away — nothing needs to come back.

Not a different face.
Yours, on a better morning.

The people who like these don’t say they look younger. They say they stopped reaching for concealer without thinking about it, and that nobody has asked whether they’re tired in a while. Press a pair on tonight and look at yourself in the morning. If nothing sits differently, we’ll refund you and you can keep the box.
