After major disappointments with Kao Biore Tegotae Eye Mask, Dr. Hu Collagen & Seaweed Eye Treatment Mask and Dr. Hu Bird Nest Peptides Collagen Eye Treatment Mask, I chanced upon Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Lines-Smoothing ) and Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Brightening ) in Guardian and promptly purchased 2 of each variant.
Part of the L'Oreal Group, Garnier is an international haircare and skincare brand reputed as a renowned beauty expert. Harnessing the bounty of nature, all ingredients used in the products are extracted using the brand's cutting-edge expertise and techniques offering customers worldwide uncomplicated care products formulated for radiantly alluring hair and skin.
Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Lines-Smoothing ) is a new generation of eye masks enriched with rejuvenating Coconut Water and hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum. Smooth lines and de-puff eyes with a bomb of hydration in just 15 minutes! For tired eyes showing first signs of ageing, this domino-shaped mask lifts skin around the eyes, revealing awake, fresh and younger looking eyes.
How To Use :
1) Apply eye mask on cleansed skin
2) Smoothen the mask gently to ensure contact with skin
3) Adjust eye mask to cover full eye contour area
4) Leave for 15 minutes.
5) Remove mask and gently massage excess formula into skin.
Tip : For more cooling effect, keep in fridge
Made in China, Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Lines-Smoothing ) is thin like a tissue mask and comes folded with a protective layer. It sits comfortably on the eye area, with a shape that looks like one of the superheroes. I enjoyed the generous size so that all areas around the eyes are covered. That said, there seems to be a subtle scent of alcohol but it wasn't listed on the ingredient list.
Its been said that after use of the eye serum mask, the skin temperature is reduced by up to -4°C to provide a refreshing cooling temperature. Indeed the undereye areas felt comforted.
Enriched with the goodness of coconut water and hyaluronic acid, the first eye serum mask has provided me with a pleasant surprising result as my undereye area looked calm and the eczema redness disappeared after 15 minutes. However, there was no difference to my skin with the second eye serum mask although it left my undereye areas refreshed like a mini-spa session.

Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Brightening ) is a new generation of eye masks enriched with Orange Extracts and hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum. It brightens dark circles and reduces eye bags, revealing awake, fresh and brighter looking eyes.

1) Apply on clean face with white protective film facing outwards.
2) Remove the protective film, adjust the mask to cover full eye contour.
3) Leave for 15 minutes.
4) Remove mask, gently massage any excess serum or use a cotton pad to remove.

Similarly to Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Lines-Smoothing ), Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Brightening ) is also made in China, with a thin material shaped like a long crescent moon for the undereye area.
It is wet with a hint of alcohol scent although its not listed in the ingredient list. The eye mask layers moderately well on the skin with a cooling and refreshing sensation, however, there was a subtle taut sensation immediately after removing the mask.
Adding on, the longish shape doesn't really suit the undereye area as the eye mask edges ended up more to the face edge. A crescent moon shape is much preferred so that it can cover the crow feet area for a masking delight.
Unfortunately, even after using 2 eye serum masks over 2 consecutive days, they did not yield much positive results. There were no differences before or after masking. This was a disappointment considering its not cheap as compared to other eye masks in the market.

Conclusion
To conclude, I preferred Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Lines-Smoothing ) over Garnier Hydra Bomb Eye Serum Mask ( Brightening ) as its more comfortable and provided a rested and refreshing experience after the eye masking session.
I wouldn't repurchase both of them though. My search for the perfect eye mask continues.
