Peter Thomas Roth Even Smoother Glycolic Retinol Hydra-Gel Under-Eye Patches — 1% Glycolic & Microencapsulated Retinol, Hydrating

Peter Thomas Roth Even Smoother™ Glycolic Retinol Hydra-Gel Eye Patches are single-use gel patches formulated for the delicate eye contour. They pair a 1% active complex of glycolic acid and encapsulated retinol with soothing and moisturizing botanicals to address tiny bumps, uneven texture, and early signs of aging, while ingredients like niacinamide and a Revital-Eyes blend help promote a brighter, less puffy look.

How do these patches improve under-eye texture?

The patches use a targeted 1% glycolic acid and time-released microencapsulated retinol complex to gently encourage surface renewal under the eye. This combination helps smooth tiny bumps and reduce the look of roughness without abrasive scrubbing.

• 1% glycolic acid for mild chemical exfoliation
• Microencapsulated retinol for controlled, gradual release
• Hydrogel delivery for consistent ingredient contact with skin

Can these eye patches help with puffiness and dullness?

Yes—niacinamide and the proprietary Revital-Eyes blend (probiotics, green tea, pomegranate and caffeine) are included to help soothe the area, reduce visible puffiness, and support a brighter appearance. The formula also contains humectants and emollients to keep the skin hydrated and comfortable.

• Niacinamide to even tone and soothe
• Revital-Eyes complex for de-puffing and antioxidant support
• Shea butter, avocado oil and vitamin E to moisturize and reduce dryness

How and when should I use the hydrogel eye patches?

Apply one patch to each under-eye area on clean, dry skin and leave in place for the recommended time on the packaging. They work well as a quick boost before events or as part of an evening routine when retinoid activity can act overnight.

• Place on clean, makeup-free under-eye skin
• Wear for the time indicated in product instructions
• Use intermittently if you’re new to chemical exfoliants or retinoids

Are these patches safe for sensitive skin around the eyes?

The formula balances active exfoliation and retinol delivery with soothing and moisturizing agents to minimize irritation risk for many users. However, because glycolic acid and retinol can sensitize skin, those with very reactive or compromised skin should patch-test or consult a skincare professional before regular use.

• Contains calming niacinamide and botanical antioxidants
• Includes emollients to help counteract dryness
• Patch-test recommended if you have sensitive skin

Who is this for: These hydrogel patches suit people aiming to reduce under-eye texture, smooth the delicate contour, and brighten or de-puff the area without aggressive mechanical exfoliation. Ideal for users comfortable with mild chemical exfoliants and time-released retinol, they provide a targeted, convenient treatment for occasional or periodic use within a broader skincare regimen.
