There are plenty of eye masks and gel pad in the market, range from fresh cucumber eye pad or eye mask. I am not really a big fan of eye mask because sometimes I am too lazy to apply it, applying it means I can’t do anything else other than chilling.

But, recently, I have been facing computer really a lot, other than when I am sleeping, I am sitting in front of monitor, and I think it’s time to do something to soothe my puffy eyes.

This OSIM eye gel pad can be used in two ways, either you freeze it or heat it up. Instructions are printed at the back on the holder. They say, you can heat it up in the oven! That’s quite extreme, I wonder if it will burst open in the oven. I did not use the oven, I heat it up in the warm water.

Although they say you should soak it in boiling water for a minute, but I find soaking in the boiling water for a minute is way too hot for my eyes, I even pad with a towel on my eyes before padding in onto me, but the heat is just too extreme. Instead of relaxing my eyes, it burns my eyes. So, now, I only soak it in warm water for about 3 mins, the heat absorbed is just nice.
It feels like a burden on eyes when I place it for too long, but, my eyes indeed feel more relaxed after using it. And, bonus to that, when you feel like you are having fever, you can freeze the pad and put it on your forehead. Sounds good right.
This is available at all OSIM stores, retailing at RM55.00.
