I scoffed when Gwyneth Paltrow said the Goop Lift + Depuff Eye Masks are the best eye patches she’s ever used — but I’ll be damned, that girl was right! After a year of testing, I can confidently say these are, hands down, the best eye patches out there.
After one use, my under-eyes were undeniably brighter, hydrated, and ever so slightly less puffy. They have beaten every other patch I’ve tried. I also like how they stay put on my face without sliding down. The only downside is that there is a little string attached to the patch that annoys me, but it just needs to be brushed to the side.
Tip: I recommend rinsing off your night serum before putting these on in the morning. When I didn’t do that, my skin got red where the two products overlapped.
The Testing Process: My under-eyes were discolored, wrinkly, and puffy, so I went on a year-long mission to find the best under-eye patches to address these concerns. Testing took that long because results are easy to skew — a salty dinner or a fun night with prosecco can hinder results and make you think an eye patch isn’t working like it should. I wanted to ensure each eye patch was tested under the same conditions before declaring a winner.
