How it works
A hydrogel patch works by staying put: it sits against the thin skin under the eye and holds a gel there, which is something a cream rubbed in cannot do. The gel here is set with carrageenan, carob gum and guar gum, and it carries snail secretion filtrate, niacinamide, allantoin and adenosine. It goes on clean skin before serum, morning or evening, and the gel left on the skin afterwards gets pressed in. An under-eye that looks creased and tired when it is dry is the case this fits. Use it two or three times a week alongside an eye cream rather than instead of one.
Key benefits
- Snail secretion filtrate sits third on the list, niacinamide fourth
- The patches come in a smaller and a larger cut to fit the eye area and smile line
- Licorice-derived dipotassium glycyrrhizate keeps the formula calm
- A cool hydrogel that plumps the look of the under-eye before makeup

COSRX Advanced Snail Hydrogel Eye Patch
What is the gel material in this eye patch made from?
Carrageenan leads the gelling system, along with carob gum, guar gum and cellulose gum, all seaweed and plant-derived thickeners used to hold the hydrogel's shape and keep it in contact with the under-eye area during wear.
Where does snail secretion filtrate sit on this patch's ingredient list?
Third, right after water and glycerin. That is a high position for an eye patch, meaning the snail filtrate is a substantial part of the formula rather than a minor addition for the label.
Does this patch contain niacinamide?
Yes, niacinamide sits fourth on the list, directly behind water, glycerin and the snail filtrate. It supports the brightening-adjacent positioning common to snail mucin under-eye patches, and applying the patches to clean, dry skin gives it the best contact time to do that work during the wear window.
How long should these patches stay on?
Hydrogel eye patches built on a gelling system like this one are typically left on for fifteen to twenty minutes while the gel is still cool and moist, then removed before it starts to dry and pull moisture back out of the skin.
Is there anything soothing beyond the snail filtrate in this formula?
Yes, allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate, a licorice root derivative, both appear on the list to support a calm, non-irritating feel alongside the snail filtrate and niacinamide. Applying the patches to clean, dry under-eye skin and leaving them for the full wear window lets that soothing pairing settle in before the gel is peeled away.

How to use
- Use the Advanced Snail Hydrogel Eye Patch on clean skin, before serum, morning or evening.
- One patch under each eye, smoothed outward from the inner corner until the edges lie flat.
- Leave them for the time the pack gives, pat in what the gel leaves behind, then go on with serum and moisturizer.
- Two or three times a week. Do not stretch a patch to reach further across the cheek; one that has been pulled will not sit flat.
Worth knowing
- Snail secretion filtrate is animal-derived, so this is not a vegan formula.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
