GRITUAL Eye Patches

Hydrogel + Collagen.
Niacinamide and Beta-Glucan. 20 minutes, 30 pairs.

60 hydrogel patches (30 pairs) with marine collagen, niacinamide and beta-glucan. The gel matrix releases the actives gradually under the eye over 15-20 minutes, 2-3 times a week. The 24K gold in the formula is aesthetic — the work comes from the hydrogel and the actives, not the gold. Dermatologically tested.

TL;DR
  • 60 patches (30 pairs), hydrogel matrix
  • Marine collagen + Niacinamide + Beta-Glucan + Tocopherol
  • 20 minutes per use, 2-3 times a week
  • Dermatologically tested
  • What they do NOT: don't erase genetic or vascular dark circles. Reduce the look of puffiness and tiredness temporarily

Eye patches detail
Inside the jar

30 pairs of hydrogel patches, full immersion.

Patches sit fully soaked in the serum so the gel matrix stays loaded with actives until the moment you pull a pair out. Close the lid tight after each use to prevent the gel from drying.

What do you think about under-eye hydrogel patches with marine collagen, niacinamide, beta-glucan, tocopherol (vit E) and 24K gold flakes? 60 patches in a jar (30 pairs), 20 minutes per use, 2-3 times a week. Realistic claims: temporary reduction in puffiness, calming, hydration. Limitations: doesn't change genetic/vascular dark circles permanently; 24K gold is aesthetic (chemically inert, doesn't transcutaneously absorb). How meaningful is collagen applied topically (molecular weight too large to penetrate)? Compared to a basic caffeine eye cream, when does each make sense?
How it works

The hydrogel does the work. The gold is the photo.

1

Hydrogel matrix — sustained release of the actives

Formulation

A hydrogel is a polymer network that holds 60-90% water plus dissolved actives. On contact with skin, it cools the area (drains tiny blood vessels under the eye — visible "de-puff") and releases the molecules dissolved in the gel into the stratum corneum over 15-20 minutes. Past that window, the gel dries and there's no benefit to leaving it on longer.

2

Niacinamide — the studied small molecule

Literature

Vitamin B3 derivative. Repeatedly studied (J. Cosmet. Dermatol., Int. J. Dermatol.) at 2-5% concentrations for reducing transepidermal water loss, calming the skin and slightly lifting pigmented dark circles. It penetrates — molecular weight ~122 Da.

3

Beta-Glucan — the humectant from oats/yeast

Literature

A water-binding polysaccharide. Beta-glucan film holds water in the stratum corneum and is documented for soothing irritation. The effect at the moment of application is a hydrated, "plumped" look around the eye — especially valuable on dehydrated mornings.

24K Gold — aesthetic, not therapeutic

Transparency

Pure gold is chemically inert at the temperature of human skin. It does not penetrate, does not bind, does not react. What it does on the patch: looks gold under the camera. We're keeping it because it does no harm, but we won't write that "gold rejuvenates the cells" — that's not how chemistry works.

What they don't fix

Honest

Dark circles come from three main mechanisms: vascular (visible vessels through thin skin — hereditary), pigmented (excess melanin) and structural (hollow tear trough, eye position). Eye patches do not change anatomy. The effect is hydration, calming, temporary visual reduction of puffiness. For real fixes on vascular/structural, see a dermatologist.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I apply them?
Cleanse the under-eye area, take one pair with the spatula in the jar, place them with the wider side toward the cheek, ~2 mm under the lash line. Leave for 15-20 minutes. Remove, pat in the remaining serum. Don't rinse.
Will they make my dark circles disappear?
Not permanently. Hereditary dark circles (vascular and structural) don't shift from any topical product. You'll see a temporary reduction in puffiness, hydration, a slightly fresher look — that's the realistic effect.
Can I store them in the fridge?
Yes — the cold amplifies the de-puff effect (vasoconstriction). Keep the jar tightly closed. Take it out 1 minute before use to avoid icy shock.
Sensitive skin?
Dermatologically tested, but if you have eczema or active eye allergies, patch test on the wrist for 24 hours first. Niacinamide can rarely cause flushing in very sensitive skin.
