There was a time when I went through single-use eye masks daily, oblivious to the waste I was creating. Once I started learning about refillable beauty and how to build a more sustainable routine, I thought I’d have to sacrifice my favorite morning skin-care step. Thankfully, that’s not the case.
Allow me to introduce you to Three Ships Beauty’s Brighter Days Red Algae + Avocado Biodegradable Eye Masks ($32). Unlike other single-use eye masks, these actually dissolve in water when you’re done using them—i.e. no plastic waste.
Before I get carried away, let me back up a bit. Brighter Days Red Algae + Avocado Biodegradable Eye Masks are hydrogel eye masks designed to brighten, depuff and hydrate the under-eye area in just 10 minutes. Each patch contains antioxidants, fatty acids and humectants thanks to red algae, avocado extract and glycerin. Red algae is a potent antioxidant and amino acid-rich hydrator that gives the patches their jelly-like texture and biodegradable abilities. Avocado extract brightens and acts as an emollient for smoother and softer under-eye skin. Glycerin is a humectant that penetrates below the surface to plump and lock in moisture for a visibly depuffed under eye. (Pro tip: throw the whole jar in the fridge for an extra refresh and depuffing treatment.)

One shopper called them “heavenly” and said their under eyes are “so much brighter” and “much less puffier.” A second agreed the Eye Masks “make the puffiness disappear” while a third said they’re a “10 out of 10” for depuffing. “I love how smooth and refreshed my eyes look,” commented a reviewer, while another in their 50s noted how much “tighter and dewy” their whole eye area looks.
Whether you’re trying to achieve a more eco-friendly beauty routine or just on the hunt for a really good eye treatment, give Three Ships Beauty’s Brighter Days Red Algae + Avocado Biodegradable Eye Masks a try.
