Good concept, doesn't feel very effective
I've been having a rough go of my chronic illnesses lately and have been looking for simple self care additions to incorporate into my regimen. My eyes have been struggling and uncomfortable lately, so these eye makes sounded promising. I'm not super fond of them thus far, however.<br /><br />The packet features simple instructions and individually wrapped masks. It's easy enough to remove the lining and place the thin masks atop your lids. I've used them during my red light therapy sessions at home and the effect seems to be more of a calming ritual versus cooling.<br /><br />If I press the mask to have better contact with my lids, I can feel a verrrrry subtle amount of cooling. The product against my skin sets off my sensory sensitivities, however, and makes me a smidge squirmy, so direct eyelid pressure is a no go for me.<br /><br />I have sensitive and reactive skin and I've placed a patch on my forehead after my eyelid time was up to see how it feels....and the patch did cause a slight itching sensation.<br /><br />I'm bummed that this product doesn't cool very much, and that it might not work for my skin. I plan to wait a few days and try another. I'll update this review if needed!
