A dynamic lifestyle girl often has to deal with fatigue and lack of sleep. A blockage at work, gatherings with friends until late at night, prolonged evening reading of your favorite book - all this leads to the appearance of unwanted defects on the face, such as swelling and dark circles under the eyes. There is a modern and effective solution for this problem - hydrogel patches will help you get rid of such troubles in the shortest possible time. Let's talk about the features of popular Korean patches.
Features, pros and cons
Korean cosmetics won huge popularity in the Russian market, and for good reason:
- natural ingredients;
- lack of harmful additives in the composition;
- natural flavors;
- efficiency at the level of luxury European facilities;
- low price in comparison with popular brands of other manufacturers.
Of course, it cannot be argued that absolutely all Korean manufacturers do not use perfumes and parabens as part of their cosmetic products, however, most popular brands do without them.
Almost all Korean manufacturers produce samples of their products so that the customer has the opportunity to test the product before buying.
Most Koreans release patches in jars of 60 pieces, which means that with daily use, one package for a month is enough for you, which is very economical. Moreover, manufacturers do not spare serum, so even the very last pair of patches in your jar will be abundantly saturated with useful substances.In addition, the Korean manufacturer likes to delight the beautiful half of humanity with beautiful packaging with a cute and unusual design.
A jar with a picture of a panda or a raccoon, of course, does not affect the effectiveness of the product, however, it can cheer you up. Korean patches simply do not have serious disadvantages, unless they can be found in not every store. Although sometimes the products of popular Korean brands are faked by unscrupulous Chinese manufacturers.
