Our verdict

A retinol sheet mask for the eye area that softens the look of fine lines and dryness in a short session. It is a periodic treatment, and the ingredient list includes fragrance despite the unscented label.

Overview

Mornings after a short night and the hour before an event are when these Shiseido eye masks earn their place. Each sheet rests on the outer eye area, delivering retinol and plant extracts to smooth fine lines and dryness.

A quick visible lift for tired eyes, with the option to use the stretchy sheets on smile lines too. The pack covers a limited number of sessions, and fragrance in the ingredient list may bother sensitive eyes.

Who it's for

Dryness and early lines around the eyes suit the short, regular sessions. Those using prescription retinoids should check with a doctor before stacking more retinol.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Short treatment time
  • Retinol for fine lines
  • Stretchy sheets also fit smile lines
  • Either side can be used
Cons
  • Fragrance in ingredients despite unscented label
  • Limited sessions per pack
  • Retinol may irritate sensitive skin
  • Not a daily treatment

Performance notes

Sheet masks hold the serum against the skin so it absorbs rather than evaporating, which is why a short session shows results. Retinol works over repeated use, while the hydration gives the faster smoothing effect. Placing the broad end at the outer corner covers crow's feet where lines are deepest.
