TRY THIS: Patchology FlashPatch Eye Gels

Hey Glamazons! I’ve found THE BEST product to help you keep you from looking like a tired, hot mess in the eye area. Side note: I know, I know. It’s a serious problem about how obsessed I am with eye products. From creams to gels, I’ve pretty much tried it all. But, I felt that it was my Glamazon Beauty Duty to tell you about this one because it’s just that good!

It’s a product called Flash Patches and I’ve been using them for a couple of months now. I was invited to an event at the brand’s public relations office where I got a firsthand account on how they work. When all of us beauty editor/bloggers arrived, we were immediately given our own pair to put on. They are kind of slippery, but once they’re on, they feel very cool to the touch. I could feel my entire under eye area saying “ahhhhh.”

Flash Patch twinning with my PR boo, Ryan. I heart her so hard! 

After listening to a brief presentation from the brand, I had to skip out because I was about to be late for #datenight with my bestie boo, Lauren. We decided to take one of those painting classes that everyone talks about and has labeled as a “Basic B*tch” activity, but whatever. It was so fun! Anyways, back to the Flash Patches: I kept them on during my cab ride over, peeled them off and chunked them in the garbage before jetting up a flight of stairs to the class. Lauren immediately wondered where I had been because my skin looked all “fresh and dewy.” This, in beauty girl terms, means #winning when anyone notices how great your skin looks right after you’ve used a new product for the first time.

Since then, I’ve been using them religiously. If you have puffy eyes, they are great for de-puffing. I like to apply them at least 5-10 minutes before I put on my makeup and have noticed that they are a great way to make my under eye area look brighter so I’m usually able to nix the concealer. (This is what I pat on religiously in order to make sure that my face doesn’t look a haggard mess….especially considering that I’m forever running after a two-year-old smh.) Put them underneath your eyes and leave on for 5 minutes. (If you want to leave on longer, that’s fine, too.)

Power ingredients for the FlashPatch Eye Gels include:

-Caffeine: to improve micro-circulation for brighter tone and reduced puffiness

-Sodium Hyaluronate: naturally binds moisture to the skin

-Centella Asiatica: encourages collagen synthesis while inhibiting skin inflammation

-Hydrolyzed Collagen: improves skin hydration, elasticity, tone and density

-Portulaca Oleracea Extract: brightens the under eye, rich in Vitamin C and essential Omega3 fatty acids

Each Flash Patch contains the HydraSurge Moisture System. Ingredient benefits include: 

-Yeast Amino Acids: to reduce trans-epidermal water loss, as it moisturizes with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant protection

-Therapies: locks water into the skin for lasting hydration

-Taurine: softens and moisturizes the skin

-Inositol: enhances water-binding properties for skin

-Betain: strengthens skin barrier and controls water in skin improving skin firmness and elasticity

If you aren’t running around behind a two-year-old like me, these are also great to use after super long flights (as you know that the air-up-there can suck the moisture out of your skin like a vacuum!), as a morning after pick up (ie. to help that hang over lol) or even just as a daily part of your eye skincare regimen. OH and you can also layer on eye cream after removing for a super moisturizing effect. (Just make sure you under eye area is clean before applying.)

So, give them a go Glamazons and be sure to let me know what you think after you try them!
