FOR BRIGHTER EYES AND A SMOOTH, HYDRATED EYE CONTOUR
The eye contour is the area that shows fatigue first and resists skincare the longest. Puffiness, dark circles, crow’s feet: traditional cosmetic actives struggle to penetrate, and results are slow to follow. This is exactly the problem the Wrinkles Schminkles Smoothing and De-Puffing Eye Mask solves—differently.
Its advanced biocellulose technology delivers a concentration of active ingredients directly into the deeper layers of the skin—something a traditional cream cannot achieve. Results are visible in 15 minutes. This isn’t a marketing claim: it’s the mechanism of a professional-grade patch, adapted for daily use.
This guide explains how to use it properly to get the most out of it, and which treatments to combine with it to prolong its effects.
What this patch does that your eye cream doesn’t
Most eye creams remain on the surface. The skin under the eyes is thin, poorly vascularized, and its structure naturally limits the penetration of actives applied through rubbing or tapping.
Biocellulose works differently. Derived from bacterial fermentation, it forms an ultra-thin film that perfectly adheres to the eye contour and creates an occlusive effect: active ingredients are driven into the deeper layers instead of evaporating at the surface. It’s the same principle as professional in-clinic patches, now available at home.
The 24 concentrated actives in the patch include marine collagen, caffeine, peptides, and MYOXINOL®, a patented ingredient clinically proven to inhibit the micro-contractions responsible for expression lines. Clinical study results are precise: +22.3% hydration and -21.1% wrinkles from the very first use.
Who it’s for: all skin types from age 25 onward, with or without an established anti-aging routine. Effective both preventively and correctively.
How to properly use the Wrinkles Schminkles Mask: the exact protocol
Step 1: Prepare the skin
The quality of application determines the effectiveness of the patch. Biocellulose adheres only to clean, dry skin. Skin with residual cream, sebum, or skincare products creates a barrier between the patch and the skin, reducing absorption of actives.
Thoroughly cleanse the eye contour before applying the patches. Do not apply any other product to this area beforehand. The skin must be bare.
Step 2: Apply the patches
Gently peel off the patch starting from the inner corner. Place it under the eye, moving from the inner to the outer corner, following the natural curve of the orbital bone. Smooth lightly with your fingertips to remove any air bubbles.
Important: do not stretch the skin during application. The eye contour is the thinnest area of the face. Repeated pulling contributes to long-term sagging.
Recommended wear time: 15 to 20 minutes. This timing is optimized for active ingredient penetration. Beyond that, the patch begins to dry out and the effect reverses: it may start absorbing moisture from the skin instead of delivering it.
Superskin tip: store your sachets in the refrigerator. The cold enhances the de-puffing effect on bags and dark circles and turns the treatment into a true express ritual. Ideal in the morning before an event, or after a short night.
Step 3: Remove the patches and seal in the actives
Remove the patches from the outer corner toward the inner corner, without pulling. There is always a residual serum left on the skin after removal: do not rinse it off. Gently tap from the inner to the outer corner until fully absorbed.
To maximize results, immediately apply an eye contour treatment to seal in hydration and extend the action of the actives. This is where the choice of complementary care makes the difference.

Step 4: Frequency of use
For visible and lasting results: 1 to 2 times per week. The patch can also be used occasionally before an important event, as an intensive 5-day treatment to address accumulated fatigue, or in the morning as an express de-puffing ritual.
Consistency is the key factor. A patch used twice a week for a month transforms the quality of the eye contour skin. A patch used occasionally provides temporary comfort without structural results.
Expected results and realistic timelines
From the first use: puffiness visibly decreases, dark circles fade, and the eyes look more rested. This is the immediate effect of caffeine and cold.
After 4 weeks of regular use: crow’s feet are smoothed, skin gains firmness, and texture becomes more even. This is the combined action of peptides, MYOXINOL®, and marine collagen on the dermis.
This patch does not replace: a daily eye cream, sun protection, or quality makeup. It complements an existing routine by intensifying the action of actives where traditional skincare reaches its limits.
