The under-eye area is delicate and lacks sebaceous glands, making it prone to dryness and the formation of under-eye bags when we don’t get enough sleep.

Cold eye masks are highly effective in taking care of the under-eye area. The cold temperature constricts blood vessels, reduces swelling, and firms the skin.
