The delicate under-eye area is often the first to show signs of aging and dehydration. With the launch of PCA Skin's new Hyaluronic Acid Eye Patches, we aim to address these concerns using advanced technology and targeted ingredients.
The Challenges of the Under-Eye Area
The skin around our eyes is unique and requires special care due to several physiological factors:
- Thinner than the skin on our face: The eyelid is the thinnest layer of skin on the body, less than 1 millimetre thick, with no subcutaneous fat.
- Weak moisture barrier: This area does not produce enough natural moisturizing factors or oils necessary to lubricate the skin.
- Least natural elasticity: The skin here has the least natural elasticity, making it more susceptible to fine lines and wrinkles.
- Blood vessels and pigmentation: Thinning skin causes blood vessels under the eyelid to dilate, leading to under-eye darkness.
- Stress and genetics: These can cause fluid and lymph build up, resulting in puffiness and bags.
- Multiple gland types: The eyelid contains sebaceous glands, sweat glands, tear glands, and Meibomian glands. Meibomian glands, which are only present on the eyelid margin, produce oil to protect the eye surface. This leaves the skin on the orbital bone susceptible to dryness.
Inside the Technology: Hyaluronic Acid Microneedle Patches
HYDRATES + PLUMPS: 4-D Hyaluronic Acid
Our formula features four types of hyaluronic acid, each with unique properties that create a three-dimensional hydration network targeting various skin layers. This network effectively hydrates the skin from both the outside and within, significantly improving hydration, fine lines, and wrinkles.
BRIGHTENS: Daisy Flower + Hawkweed Extract
A powerful blend of natural extracts that rejuvenates the skin by helping to reduce the appearance of skin puffiness and under-eye dark circles.
SMOOTHS: Amino Acid + Copper
Helps to soften the look of expression lines and wrinkles.

- MORE NEEDLES: Each patch contains 1,254 self-dissolving microneedles.
- MORE ACTIVES: Each patch delivers 50mg of 4-D Hyaluronic Acid.

Directions for Use
- Preparation: Stop using sensitising products near the eyes two weeks before applying the patch.
