WHY USE AT NIGHT?
The regeneration of our cells happens at night during the sleep cycle. The Microcrystalized Elastic Fibre Eye Strips’ elastic tension can effectively inhibit the squeezing movement of the skin and muscles around the eye area during the time of treatment. Smoothing, firming and fading the existing wrinkles while preventing the formation of new ones.

For best results, use before going to sleep.
