Product Description
Reverse signs of aging around the eye area by using Dermatory Retinal Eye patch. Potent anti-agers like hydrolyzed collagen and adenosine reduce fine lines and wrinkles, while brightening agents like niacinamide and Vitamin E rejuvenate dull skin. The gel patches come in thin construction to ensure seamless adherence.
I purchased Dermatory Retinal Eye patch during my last trip in Korea in May 2024. I usually like to use eye masks 2 weeks to 1 month prior to an upcoming event, to keep my peepers looking less tired-looking. My last 2 emptied eye masks were Bring Green Toning Vita Brightening Eye Patch and JM Solution Marine Luminous Pearl Deep Moisture Eye Patch.
This is my first foray into Dermatory which I have not heard before my trip to Seoul, Korea.
Korean beauty brand DERMATORY specifically caters to allergy-prone and sensitive skin types. All DERMATORY products are made in Korea and are formulated without harmful ingredients like talc, sulfates, parabens, synthetic fragrances and sorbic acid. DERMATORY is a sister brand of CLIO and peripera.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
Dermatory Retinal Eye Patch comes in a round tub with 30 pairs of hydrogel patches, stacked upon each other and a spatula is enclosed for easy pick-up. It has a subtle plastic fragrance.
How to use:
1. After cleansing, place the eye patches on under eye areas.
2. Remove the mask after 10 minutes, dab the remaining essence to absorb.
Performance and Ingredients
The Dermatory Retinal Eye Patch is a thick hydrogel patch soaked in a firming ampoule. Upon application, it delivers a cooling and refreshing sensation—perfect for tired eyes after a long workday or before a special event when you need a quick pick-me-up.
These eye patches are designed with special curves to enhance adherence around the delicate eye area. However, because they are very saturated with essence, I found that they tend to slip easily—especially when applied on slightly damp skin.
I often had to readjust them multiple times during use, which can be slightly inconvenient if you're multitasking so it is recommended to lie down while using these patches. These hydrogel patches get thinner after absorption.
Although marketed primarily for the undereye area, these patches can also be applied to:
-
Forehead for expression lines
-
Smile lines around the mouth
-
Neck to target crepey texture
Personally, I’ve kept them focused on the eye area, since that’s where I experience the most visible fatigue and fine lines.
At the heart of this product is retinal—a powerful yet stable vitamin A derivative known to stimulate collagen production and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
These eye patches are also enriched with:
-
Hydrolyzed Collagen – Helps to plump and smooth fine lines
-
Bakuchiol – A gentle plant-based alternative to retinol that boosts firmness
-
Volufiline – A popular Korean skincare ingredient known to visibly plump and volumize skin
Together, this blend targets under-eye aging, fatigue, and loss of elasticity, making this patch a multi-functional treatment for anyone concerned with eye area aging.
That said, despite emptying the whole tub of 30 pairs of eye patches across 1.5 months, I haven't seen any visible difference on my eye area.

Conclusion
To conclude, Dermatory Retinal Eye Patch may be a great addition to any K-beauty anti-aging skincare routine, especially for those dealing with puffiness, fine lines, and tired eyes, based on the touted ingredients. If you're seeking an eye patch with retinal, bakuchiol, and collagen, this is a solid option to try.
However, Dermatory Retinal Eye Patch is not for me, as I didn't experience any visible difference other than the refreshing sensation but what don't work for me may just work well for you.
