Discover How Affordable Firming Eye Masks Help Achieve a Wide-Awake Look

No matter how much water I drink before bed or how many hours I sleep, I’ve had little success reducing the puffiness around my eyes in the morning. That is until I tried the Live Tinted Rays Copper Eye Masks ($22) a few weeks ago. Since then, I’ve been able to cheat my way into looking wide awake as soon as I hop out of bed at 6:30 a.m.

Ingredients Overview

Many under-eye treatments have come and gone in my beauty cabinet, but these eye masks have earned a permanent place due to their blend of naturally skin-firming and nourishing ingredients.

The eye masks contain bakuchiol, a plant-based retinol alternative known for enhancing skin elasticity and reducing discoloration without irritation. Bakuchiol boosts cellular turnover, resulting in fresher-looking skin by shedding dead skin cells, which can help reduce wrinkles and fine lines, particularly under the eyes.

Additionally, the masks feature banana extract, rich in essential vitamins such as B3, B5, B6, and C, which collectively promote skin brightness, strength, and nourishment. The vitamin A in bananas aids in restoring skin moisture, combating dullness, dryness, and damaged skin.

Moreover, copper peptides in the masks strengthen skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production, improving skin tone, texture, and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. These peptides are known for their non-irritating properties, making them suitable for sensitive skin types.

Product Review

I decided to test these eye masks over the past few weeks. The application is simple and seamless: place the masks under your eyes and leave them on for up to 10 minutes. The masks adhere well and are infused with a refreshing hydrogel-like solution that feels cool and slightly slimy to the touch.

After removing the masks, I noticed immediate results. The skin under my eyes felt firmer and appeared brighter, thanks to the copper peptides, banana extract, and hydrating components in the formula.

According to Marisa Garshick, MD, FAAD, a board-certified dermatologist in New York City, moisturizing the under-eye area can reduce dark circles and eye bags by hydrating the skin, giving it a healthier and plumper appearance. Ingredients like glycerin, present in the masks, can boost moisture levels and diminish under-eye bags by plumping the skin.

While the enhancement in my appearance was subtle, it was a significant improvement from the usual shadows under my eyes during sleep-deprived days. Overall, these eye masks provide a quick rejuvenation, helping me appear refreshed within minutes. Plus, the masks’ half-moon shape and bright orange color add a fun touch. Each pack contains six masks, ideal for daily use, including a self-care Sunday.
