Hydrogel Eye Patch
A water-rich gel sheet that clings closely to the under-eye contour and releases water-soluble actives slowly through occlusion. The category default, and the easiest to scale.
Yanse is a hydrogel eye patch manufacturer in China making private label under-eye patches for brands. Carrageenan hydrogel (plant-based, halal and vegan compatible), dissolving microneedle (microdart) and CNF collagen under-eye patches — fully OEM/ODM, with custom die-cut shapes, actives and packaging. MOQ from 3,000 per SKU, 72-hour sampling on ready formulations, made by a 20-year specialist in patch and pad formats.

Most eye-patch suppliers offer one gel and one shape. The three questions below decide whether your launch performs.
Microdart eye patches — the fastest-growing eye format, strong content angle.
CNF collagen carrier for peptide and collagen positioning at a higher price point.
Hydrogel at scale — stable supply, value tiers, ISO 22716 & US FDA GMP.
Add an eye step to a patch range — same supplier, matched documentation.
Single-pair sachets, rotating actives, travel formats.
Custom die-cut shapes and jar formats for seasonal and gift SKUs.
All three are fully OEM/ODM customisable in shape, size, gel thickness, essence load, active system and packaging.
A water-rich gel sheet that clings closely to the under-eye contour and releases water-soluble actives slowly through occlusion. The category default, and the easiest to scale.
A field of soluble tips that dissolve at the skin surface, carrying actives past the barrier rather than relying on occlusion alone. The strongest content and PR angle in the eye category right now.
Cellulose-nanofibre carrier — a very fine fibre network with high water retention and close skin contact, suited to collagen and peptide positioning at a higher price point.
| Route | How it delivers | Feel | Best positioning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydrogel | Occlusion — slow release of water-soluble actives under a sealing gel sheet | Cool, wet, heavy cling | Mass to mid-premium; hydration, de-puffing, brightening appearance |
| Dissolving microneedle | Soluble tips dissolve at the skin surface, carrying actives past the barrier | Dry-touch, brief tingle | Premium DTC; fine-line and firming appearance, strong PR angle |
| CNF collagen | Nanofibre network holds water and actives in very close skin contact | Thin, second-skin | High-end clinical; collagen, peptide and recovery stories |

Slitting lineAn under-eye patch is a cosmetic in the EU, UK and US. Getting the claim wrong is the fastest way to lose a retail listing. A shortlist of capable makers across all four substrate routes — and the ten questions that separate a casting factory from a converter — is in the hydrogel eye patch sourcing guide.

| Hydrates and plumps the look of fine lines | Erases wrinkles |
| Helps brighten the look of dark circles | Treats or cures dark circles |

Your customers will ask these, and the answers decide whether a product gets a good review. We make these formats, so we explain the mechanism rather than repeat the marketing — including where the honest answer is "no".
Yes for fluid, no for structural — and the mechanism is mostly cold. What decides the cooling window.
Gelatin vs carrageenan — and why a "collagen" patch on a plant gel sheet still fails a vegan claim.
No — three reasons, including water activity around 0.99. And what customers are really asking for.
Usually too much free essence, lubricating the one thing holding the patch on. The six specifications that decide whether a patch stays in place.
15–20 minutes — and why a drying patch reverses and pulls moisture back out of the skin.
Dark circles are vascular, pigmented or structural. A patch helps one partly, one barely, one not at all.
Lips have no oil glands and a thinner barrier — which is exactly why occlusion shows more there.
An excellent hydration event, a modest delivery vehicle — and the essence matters more than the cloth.
