What does the product description say?
Targeting dehydration lines and tired eyes, each pair of hydrogel patches is infused with caffeine to improve micro-stimulation for brighter tone and reduced puffiness; sodium hyaluronate that naturally binds moisture to the skin; centella asiatica which encourages collagen production while inhibiting inflammation; hydrolysed collagen to improve skin’s hydration, elasticity, tone and density and finally, vitamin C and Omega3 fatty acid-rich Portulaca Oleracea extract which brightens the under-eye.
urea
2.4% -
2.9%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH
Naturally present in skin (urea makes up about 7% of natural moisturizing factors in skin). Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Also has a positive effect on the skin barrier beyond the humectant action. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients. Is an exfoliating ingredient when used in high concentrations
hydrolyzed collagen
0.45% -
0.65%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH
A typically plant-derived compound that is supposed mimic human collagen. Cannot penetrate the skin barrier so is not particularly useful in skincare products beyond attracting water to the upper layer of the skin

acetyl glucosamine
0.25% -
0.4%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH
An effective moisturizing ingredient that also has been shown to be effective in evening out the skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation. It can help somewhat reduce wrinkles in skin
taurine
1.2% -
1.5%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Effectiveness:
LOW
Could be helpful in reducing inflammation in skin, evening out the skin tone and neutralizing free radicals, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness
galactomyces ferment filtrate
0.5% -
0.7%
Irritation risk:
Concentration: Insufficient!
A yeast ferment filtrate (also known as Pitera - a trademarked name for the filtrate reserved by the SK-II brand). It helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin, can help neutralize antioxidants and can be helpful in evening out the skin tone. It might be somewhat helpful in preventing premature skin aging but solid evidence is lacking. A small manufacturer study also shows that, when used in high concentrations, it can help reduce sebum production and help against blocked pores
