- The inclusion of yeast extract further aids in soothing and barrier function, though more targeted ingredients would be needed for significant improvement of your specific concerns.
- The product is safe for your sensitive skin, containing no harsh ingredients and featuring soothing components like beta-glucan and yeast extract.

Questions and answers
How well does LANEIGE Eye Sleeping Mask work for sensitive skin?
This eye care is an average fit because, while it is safe and provides moderate hydration with soothing ingredients like beta-glucan and yeast extract, other products fit this skin better. An eye care for this skin needs higher safety, excellent suitability for redness and irritation, and extra soothing and hydrating ingredients without any potential irritants.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023
Which ingredients make this eye mask a good fit for sensitive skin?
Glycerin, beta-glucan, and yeast extract make this eye mask a good fit for sensitive skin by providing gentle moisture and helping soothe redness and irritation. They are safe and supportive, though sensitive skin generally needs more targeted ingredients for significant improvement of specific concerns.
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017
What does Caffeine do for sensitive skin?
Caffeine is unlikely to irritate sensitive skin and helps calm redness by boosting microcirculation and providing antioxidant protection against UV damage. It is generally well tolerated, though sensitive skin types looking for this benefit need formulas with soothing ingredients and without harsh fragrances.
Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, 2013Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
What does Hesperidin do for sensitive skin?
Hesperidin helps calm sensitive skin by reducing redness, swelling, and irritation caused by everyday stressors. It is unlikely to cause issues and may help protect the skin from UV-induced inflammation and oxidative stress.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2018Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2016
Where does it go in a skincare routine for sensitive skin?
This eye care product is unlikely to irritate sensitive skin, and it fits best as an evening treatment step or as needed to help keep the eye area soft and calm. To better support this skin type, eye products of this type need extra soothing and barrier-repairing ingredients to noticeably calm redness and irritation.
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021
Can I use this eye mask with retinol, and in what order?
You can use this eye mask with retinol by applying the eye mask after your retinol treatment has fully absorbed, or on alternate nights to keep the delicate eye area calm. This product helps provide moderate moisture and soothing barrier support, though sensitive skin using strong actives like retinol often benefits from extra barrier-repairing ceramides and richer soothing agents.
How often should I use it?
This eye mask may be used daily to help keep the eye area calm and soft. Because it contains soothing ingredients like beta-glucan and yeast extract, it is unlikely to irritate sensitive skin.
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021
Can this eye mask clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for sensitive skin?
This eye mask is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for sensitive skin, as it contains no harsh ingredients. Products of this type need calming and barrier-supporting ingredients like beta-glucan and yeast extract to keep sensitive skin calm and comfortable.
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021
Is it fragrance-free and alcohol-free?
It has no drying alcohol and contains fragrance (parfum).
