I’ve talked before about my love of snail secretion as a skincare ingredient. It’s almost old-hat at this point, but it will always be a favourite of mine. Most of my snail skincare has slowly been replaced by ferments lately but the one area I still indulge is the eyes. Snail secretion is so soothing and moisturizing without being greasy, it lends itself wonderfully to delicate eye skin. My favourite delivery method is the Tony Moly Intense Care Snail Eye Mask Jumbo. If, for whatever reason, you don’t like the idea of applying snail secretion to your face, you may prefer to shop collagen eye masks as an alternative for making your eyes more refreshed.
These little comma shaped gel eye patches are perfectly contoured for your eyes. They come in a pack of 30 (15 uses) which I like better than the single use eye masks. I love the gel that these are made out of, the way it mollifies is unparalleled in the eye mask world IMO. Also packed with Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Aloe Leaf Juice, Rose Extract, Diamond Powder, and even Colloidal Gold, the ultra soothing patches cool and nourish. When I’m having a particularly rough morning, I love slipping these on my eyes, one set under my eyes, and one set on my lids, for the ultimate in remedying puffy tired eyes. I really love how they’re oversized and cover such a big area! I don’t like to be wasteful so after I’m through using them on my eyes (time permitting) I flip them over to the other side and put them on my smile lines. Their shape fits the contours of that area perfectly. I’ve also been known to put them on my lips. They’re definitely a lot more multi-purpose than they’re marketed as.

It used to be available on all the major sites but I’m not seeing it anymore. I hope it’s not discontinued! Maybe we should stock up while we can!
OK. I really need these. I better buy them soon or I’ll miss out!
But more importantly: WHY HAVEN’T I BEEN WATCHING “GET IT BEAUTY” ALL THIS TIME?!
“But more importantly: WHY HAVEN’T I BEEN WATCHING “GET IT BEAUTY” ALL THIS TIME?!”
Yes! Fair warning, it’s a dangerous show that will have you wanting ALL THE THINGS ALWAYS!
Interesting! I feel like I totally neglect my under eyes and I don’t know why, because they’re always puffy. Maybe I need to improve my routine…
Mine are always puffy as well, but that’s my fault. Well specifically, that’s soju’s fault lol
Oooooh! Totally going to see if the Tony Moly in ktown has these! Fingers crossed!
OMG gurl if they do LMK so I can send you some money to get me some
