Hello IMBBians,
I usually ignore my eye area while using face masks and only at times, I use potato slice or cotton with rose water. I recently spotted these eye pads at the store and today’s review is all about Essence cooling & relaxing eye pads. Read on to know more.
Price:
$2.35 for 1 pair of eye pads
Product Description:
Thanks to these cooling eye pads with a cucumber design, tired eyes are a thing of the past! Simply store in the refrigerator for a few hours, place on the eyes and relax.
Advice: Relaxing and cooling eye pads to refresh puffy and tired eyes.
Instructions: Put the pads in the fridge (but not in the freezer) for at least 1 hour, then put onto your eyes for 10-15 minutes and relax. Reusable.
My Experience with Essence Cooling & Relaxing Eye Pads:
The mask comes in a blue sachet. There is some information on the back of the package. The packaging is pretty basic and for the price it is okay! The eye masks look like cucumber slices. The mask is filled with green cooling gel. The size of the mask is perfect and it sits perfectly. There is no smell in the masks.
The use of the eye mask is pretty easy. You need to pop these in the fridge for an hour and then use it on your eyes. The mask can be used for around 10-15 minutes. The mask instantly adds cooling effect to the eyes; especially when you have tired eyes. The product is reusable. Since it has to be kept in the fridge, the product is not suitable when you are on the go! The product relaxes the eyes and takes the tiredness away! It instantly energizes and wakes up the eyes. The eye masks do not drastically reduce puffy eyes. The mask definitely is the prefect relaxation fix I need.
While the concept is nice, there is no other use from the mask. I sometimes use the mask on a fresh pimple to soothe them. The mask doesn’t reduce black circles or any others eye issues. The pads remain cool for a very long period of time, once it is taken from the refrigerator. I personally feel that the pads have to be a little longer than 1 hour in the fridge, to get the desired coolness. I wash them after use and put them in the fridge every time, so that when I need, I do not have to wait. The mask is okay, but you can find other alternate fixes too.
Pros of Essence Cooling & Relaxing Eye Pads:
- Soothes the eyes.
- Reduces puffiness.
- Inexpensive.
- Sleek and fits perfectly onto the eyes.
- Wakes up the eyes and refreshes the eyes.
Cons of Essence Cooling & Relaxing Eye Pads:
- Since it has to be placed in the fridge for an hour, it cannot be used for immediate fix.
- Doesn’t fix any other eyes issues.
- Alternate methods can be found for the same effect.
