When Salma Hayek shares one of her secrets for looking as good as she does, we listen. The 58-year-old actress is helping Us make sure our skin looks radiant even before we do our skincare routine or apply makeup. Part of what helps her do that are the Patchology FlashPatch Restoring Night Eye Gels.
“I have these patches from Patchology. Sometimes I sleep with them, and I’m under the impression that, because they dry, I don’t swell as much, because it kind of like, you know, sticks to wet. And even if I swell everywhere else, it doesn’t swell there,” Hayek told Vogue, noting that she layers an entire face mask over the eye patches for all-over hydration while she sleeps.
Patchology makes a range of under-eye gels, but the ones Hayek uses are specifically designed to restore the area overnight. They’re packed with retinol to speed up healthy cell turnover, squalane to soften and protect against free radicals and peptides to reduce fine lines and crow’s feet.
To use the patches, place them on dry, clean skin and leave them on for at least five minutes. You can also take a page from Hayek’s book and wear them overnight. When you’re done, throw the patches away, and massage the remaining serum into your skin. Patchology says you can also wear the gels on top of your eyelids and eyebrows for extra hydration.
The Patchology eye gels are available in a container of 30 (15 pairs). Depending on how your skin responds to retinol, you might only want to use these patches a couple times of week, so 15 pairs could last you longer than you think.
