To tighten and brighten? I've noticed so many masks and facials say to avoid eye area, and I'm wondering if there is something wonderful that can be applied around the eyes while enjoying a facial. Thank you. |

Yes Matis have 2 mask for the eyes, both target different concerns, basically lines and wrinkles and dark circle and puffy eyes. Have them both and love them |

Valmont also has a collagen eye mask which I really like. The mask includes the collagen vial which is poured onto the pads before placing around your eyes and then another moisturiser type product to use after the mask. |

I have also tried the above Valmont eye mask, I got a few as a gift with my orders a while ago. These are very nice and the eye area looks fabulous after the treatment. Im just very hesident is purchasing the full size as they are very expensive. But if thats of no concern I would probably go the Valmont over the Matis eye masks |

la vie--have you tried the DHC revitalizing strips for the eyes? each treatment is infused with a bunch of moisturizers and brighteners and it's so very affordable at about $7 for a box of 6 eye treatments. The also sell the ones for the mouth area and neck. I love DHC, such high quality products at great prices.

Both SKII and Shu Uemura have eye masks. I haven't tried SKII. I tried the Shu Uemura ones many many years ago so I can't say if they are any good now. |

Clarins has an eye mask and a beauty flash balm that I've used on my eye area...both are nice...help to give me a relaxed, less tired look around my eyes...I tend to cheat though, and use instant radiance products around my eye area that I should probably use only on the forehead/cheek/chin area (like Orlane's morning recovery fluid)..

I like Origins No Puffery eye mask. It is a clear light green/yellowish gel. It really helps my eyes feel totally relaxed and refreshed. It also doesn't irriate my eyes at all. I keep it in the fridge and use it when I wake up looking really tired or got puffy eyes. |

I use a ton of different eye masks on a regular basis. They are very popular where I live and can be found in many beauty shops and by many different brands. Most of them are fabric/sheet masks much like face masks and after doing a side by side comparison of ingredients and results, I now simply get the face masks equivalent and cut them up to fit the eye area. So much more cost-effective and results are exactly the same as using the eye ones. I'm now using and liking a collagen crystal mask (instead of paper or cloth, it's made from collagen infused silicon, leaves eye area extremely smooth and line-free albeit temporarily, good for at least 2 whole days), Kanebo collagen face mask which I cut up and on days when I feel like splurging, SKII's eye masks as well as Shiseido's Revital are very good as well. |

I just put cucumber slices on my eyes, and I love it. Sometimes I also use tea bags. |

I think I should try Valmont collagen eye mask. I tried SKII and Kanebo Collagen before. I was not impressed at all. My esthetician has used Nelly de Vuyst Lifecell mask on eye areas which worked well. But now I want to try different eye masks. One more item on my next order. Hope it is not too expensive! |

I won a box of these in a contest and love them. They really brighten up the eye area -- I use them if I have an important meeting or a date I want to look great for. I'm not sure how long the effects last. My impression is a couple of hours. Either way, it's long enough to make me feel pretty good when I leave the house.
I'd use them a lot more often if they were cheaper (not nearly as pricey as the valmont though!). I keep thinking it should be easy to find something similar for a lot less $$, but haven't seen it. Any suggestions would be welcome! |

I'm also looking for a good eye mask.
I try Estee Lauder Perfectionist Correcting Eye Patch, but they are not very effective to the fine lines under my eyes. |

dermalogica's skin hydrating masque can also be used as an eye masque. it does not brighten and tighten, but it does make your eyes feel good |

It seems that the DHC eye and mouth masks contain the same ingredients. hhm... so wat exactly does it do to ur eyes? Does it help with eye circles? And for Valmont collagen masks, does it help with eye circles? Anyone know of a mask that help with that from lack of sleep or poor circulation? Thanks! |

Most Asia brands carry eye masks. have you heard of Kose, they just released a new product line with Q10, so you can have Q10 eye mask and Q10 face mask at the same time. |

Jurlique's Deep Penetrating Cream Mask is great around the eye area. I can see the brightening effect
Also, SK-II's eye mask also got decent reviews.
I hope this helps. |

I tried origins too. It was just Okay. I like AVON Advantage eye peptide complex because its cheap and effective. I catch it on sale 4 2 for ten and put those bad boys in the fridge. In the morning, it really reduces puffiness and redness. HTH |
