Koelf patches: overview and rules of use
The desire to look good is inherent in all women, regardless of age. However, living in a megalopolis with its frantic pace of life and a desire to be in time everywhere, many simply do not have time for themselves. In this regard, more and more ladies are becoming fans of the so-called "lazy" care, which replaces expensive trips to the salon, multicomponent masks and complex procedures for cleansing, nutrition and other beauty products.
One such care option is eye patches. There are a huge number of brands that produce this product, therefore if desired, you can find options for any wallet. Patches of the Korean company Koelf are very popular among consumers.
Advantages and disadvantages
First of all, let's figure out what it is, and what is the secret of their popularity. Literally translated from English, "patch" means a patch or patch. Indeed, hydrogel patches are small stickers (or as they are also called - plasters) that are attached to the area under the eyes. They are impregnated with a certain cosmetic composition, which can be different (depending on the problem that needs to be solved). Today this invention is known all over the world, and even men use it.
Korean cosmetics has a huge army of fans all over the world. First of all, because it is a combination of centuries-old traditions, new technologies and exotic ingredients, which are often absent from many European brands.
Koelf Hydrogel Eye Patch has many benefits. As a rule, the reviews for this product are overwhelmingly positive. In particular, most users point out the many strengths of these stickers.
- The convenience of use... It is enough just to take two leaves and put them on the area under the eyes. And then take off. No more effort is needed.
- Fast effect. The mask can be used immediately before work or a gala event, when you need to urgently quickly put yourself in order.
- Multifunctionality... As you know, our skin is naturally protected by the stratum corneum, which serves as a barrier against external negative factors. Therefore, traditional creams and masks often do not give the desired effect. Masks in the form of patches eliminate several problems at the same time: they have a lifting effect, tighten the skin and eliminate small swelling, improve the complexion, giving the skin a well-groomed appearance. Some foods have a cooling effect.
- Cumulative action... It is believed that with prolonged use of patches, the general condition of the skin improves, they give the face a more even color and a rested look,
But there are also some downsides.
- Price. The price of some varieties of this product may not be affordable for everyone - a quality product cannot be too cheap.
- Individual intolerance to some components. Asian cosmetics in general and Korean cosmetics in particular are famous for the fact that their products sometimes include too exotic ingredients that can cause an allergic reaction. Therefore, before buying, it is recommended to carefully read the composition of the purchased product.
- Limited shelf life. An open package with patches must be used within 1-2 months. Then they dry out, and the effect of their use fades away.

Such a powerful vitamin composition activates metabolic processes, improving skin health.
All products of this company are packed in plastic jars with a nice design. Each jar must be sealed with foil and packed in a cardboard box. The set contains 60 stickers and a handy spatula for more comfortable use.
