Frequency of use
There is no single answer to the question of how often to use liquid patches. There is a range of options from the first week of daily use followed by 1-2 times a week, up to 2-3 times a week, a daily basis.
Sometimes a combined method is used: the first month every day, and then to maintain the effect 2-3 times a week. Temporary exposure can also vary, from 10 minutes to 1 hour, follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
The main thing is to take into account that everyone's skin is different. You should not keep the gel on your face for a long time, if you have thin skin, consider its features.

Do I need to rinse off?
When the exposure time ends, the liquid patches disappear, and the beneficial substances are absorbed into the eyelid. The remains of the gel can be "driven" into the skin, if there are no unpleasant sensations.
There is no need to rinse off the gel, except in a situation where too much product has been used... Then there is a chance that the makeup applied after this will roll off. Or rinse off at the request of the manufacturer. After using the patches, apply an eye cream to help maintain the effect for a longer time.
