The Best Eye Masks for Dark Circles and Signs of Ageing

Have you tried countless eye creams and concealers and still getting pesky dark circles, fine lines, and puffiness? You’re not alone. The skin around our eyes is fragile and thinner than anywhere else, which unfortunately means this area is prone to showing signs of ageing – and those dark circles are actually the result of prominent blood vessels beneath the skin’s surface. Genetics, dehydration, late nights and a poor diet can also lead to puffiness and dark circles but thankfully, there is a way to achieve brighter, more youthful-looking eyes.

Enter: the eye mask. Like sheet masks, eye masks are applied for approximately 15 minutes before being removed and any residue gently massaged in. They’re specially formulated with powerful ingredients that target the skin around the eye area - and if you’re looking for an eye mask for puffy eyes, dry eyes or simply want a cooling eye mask to soothe skin after a long day, there’s one out there for every skin concern. Here are four of our best eye masks for dark circles and signs of ageing.

BIOEFFECT EGF Eye Mask Treatment

Good for: Dry Eyes and Signs of Ageing

A serum and mask in one, the BIOEFFECT EGF Eye Mask Treatment is an intensive combination used to revitalise tired, ageing skin and restore radiance around the eye area. Thanks to EGF - or epidermal growth factors - in the eye serum, greater activity is encouraged in skin cells, which leads to the natural production of collagen and elastin. The result: deeply hydrated skin and reduced appearance of lines, wrinkles and under eye puffiness. Gently massage the EGF Eye Serum into clean skin under the eyes and place one sheet mask under each eye, leaving them to absorb the serum for 15 minutes.

MZ Skin Hydra-Bright Golden Eye Treatment Mask

Good for: Puffiness and Dark Circles

If you’re looking for an eye mask for dark circles and puffy eyes, look no further than the MZ Skin Hydra-Bright Golden Eye Treatment Mask. Infused with Nano Gold Particles and anti-ageing ingredients such as collagen and hyaluronic acid, this eye mask hydrates and soothes the under eye area, brightens dark circles, and reduces the appearance of puffiness, fine lines and wrinkles. Apply to freshly cleansed skin and leave on for 15 minutes before removing.

HydroPeptide PolyPeptide Collagel+ Mask for Eyes

Good for: Signs of Ageing

This eye mask contains hydrogel technology infused with key collagen supporting peptides and hydrating nutrients, which help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles whilst brightening the under eye area. After cleansing, leave the masks on for 10-20 minutes to boost collagen production, plump and firm skin around the eye area, and provide immediate and long-lasting hydration. HydroPeptide PolyPeptide Collagel+ Mask for Eyes can also soothe, calm and cool skin after in-clinic treatments.

Avant Skincare Advanced Pack Hydra-Bright Collagen Eye Restoring Pads

Good for: Dark Circles, Puffiness and Signs of Ageing

These gel eye masks work to smooth, hydrate and minimise the appearance of fine lines, dark circles and puffiness. The masks are formulated with collagen, which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as hyaluronic acid which penetrates deep into the skin to hydrate the skin. The addition of aloe vera acts as an astringent to tighten pores and reduce the appearance of oily skin. Use once a week for best results.
