Reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness can
seem like an uphill battle especially for those whose genetics, lifestyle or
lack of sleep frequently cast unsightly shadows under the eyes. Even with a
radiant complexion hyperpigmentation can make you look tired haggard and
stressed causing some women (myself included) to temporarily remedy the
situation by layering on heavy concealers or correctors which can look cakey
and irritate delicate skin. I have tried many different products but when eye
creams are not effective enough on their own it may be time to target the
source and try something more potent and healing.
The O2M Oxygen Eye Masks by VIICode are unlike any
other I've tried before! These soft gel masks fit comfortably under all eye
shapes and are formulated to be worn overnight. As you get your beauty sleep
the rich serum infused pads packed with essential vitamins, antioxidants, proteins,
botanicals, peptides and essential fatty acids go to work to regenerate and
revive the sensitive eye area.
Although the
packaging leaves much to be desired it’s what’s on the inside that counts and after
8 hours of treatment I saw a visible difference! The darkness under my eyes was reduced enough
to impress me and I looked fresh, awake and bright-eyed. The texture of my skin
was also noticeably improved; it felt smooth, soft and intensely hydrated which
is just what I need since my skin tends to get a bit dry.
I don’t suffer from
bags or fine lines but the masks also target the signs of aging with active
cell oxygen that helps repair, even texture and diminish the look of wrinkles to improve
vitality and elasticity. They are also cruelty-free, made in the USA, safe for
all skin types and the portable packets slip into a purse or carry-on for use during
travel.
The eye strips can
be used 2-3 times per week and come in a box with 6 pairs for $59.99. They are
very easy to apply with a thick, jelly-like substance that adheres well to the
skin and stays secure even if you toss and turn in your sleep like I tend to
do. The strips are also enriched with aloe and vitamin E to soothe and
alleviate tired eyes and I noticed a long-lasting cooling sensation that seemed
to stimulate circulation, target specific areas and deeply rejuvenate. For an
extra boost you can pop the pads in the fridge for 10-20 mins before use which helps
activate the ingredients and increase the invigorating sensation.
If you are sensitive
to fragrances this formula is mild and relatively odorless. Although the price
tag may put this beauty product in the splurge category I think the results are
quite dramatic especially when used over time and in rotation with other
trusted eye products.
Because the masks
are large enough to cover dark circles plus some of the skin underneath and
around the eyes they also help brighten and moisturize the areas you highlight
when applying makeup and they seem to help reduce enlarged pores. I like that
the formula is not wet or dripping so it didn't seep into my eyes or burn and I
did notice that I required less concealer the next morning!
If you are looking
for a great pick-me-up and a dark circle savior especially before a big social
event then these little masks may be the secret weapon! You can add them to
your night time routine with ease or use them after tiresome days,
jet lag and anytime you want to recharge your complexion and look healthy and
energized! You can order the eye masks on Amazon by clicking HERE.
