Ciaté London Watermelon Under Eye Patches
Works for
MoisturizingGlycerin, Tartaric acid + 4 moreWorks
“Enriched with a host of fortifying ingredients, the watermelon-shaped patches give an intense burst of moisture to parched, stressed under-eyes.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, hydrolyzed collagen.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: hydrolyzed collagen.
Anti-agingCentella asiatica extract, NiacinamideMay help
“The nurturing, hydro-gel eye masks replenish, restore and revitalise to help reduce the appearance of fine lines, puffiness and dehydration.”
This product contains centella asiatica extract. This ingredient might be able to help reduce and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity and firmness, but there is not enough evidence that it actually works.
Anti-oxidationNot advertised by the brand · Tartaric acid, Centella asiatica extract + 2 moreMay help
This product contains antioxidants (centella asiatica extract, tartaric acid) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
