Description
What it is
The Calcium Volume Eye Patch is the hydrogel patch of Dr. Melaxin’s Cemenrete calcium line. Each jar holds 60 patches, or 30 pairs, with a small spatula for hygienic handling. The patches are soaked in a hydrating essence and are designed to give the under-eye area a smoother, plumper, more rested look in about 20 minutes. On Amazon.ca they are listed for sagging and puffy under-eyes, and they can also be placed on smile lines, the forehead or between the brows.
Key ingredients
- REBORNIC calcium complex (10,000 ppm): calcium gluconate, calcium lactate and calcium chloride. The signature of the Cemenrete line, which the brand links to skin elasticity and barrier support.
- Niacinamide: listed fourth, for a brighter, more even-looking under-eye area.
- Adenosine: a common Korean ingredient for the look of fine lines.
- Hydrolyzed collagen, collagen extract and hydrolyzed elastin: included for a firmer, bouncier look.
- Allantoin and dipotassium glycyrrhizate: soothing ingredients for thin, delicate skin.
- Carrageenan, locust bean and guar gums: the plant gums that form the cooling hydrogel.
- Mica, titanium dioxide and tin oxide: mineral shimmer that gives the patches their pearly look.

How to use
- Start with a clean, dry face.
- Use the spatula to lift a pair of patches and place them under the eyes, or on any area you want to target.
- Leave them on for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Peel them off gently and throw them away.
- Tap the remaining essence into the skin until absorbed, then continue with your eye cream.
Tip: keep the jar in the fridge for an extra cooling effect on puffy mornings, and close the lid tightly so the patches stay moist.
What to expect
- Right after: a cooled, hydrated under-eye area that looks smoother and more rested.
- With regular use: 2 to 3 times a week, or before events, the patches are a comforting boost on top of a daily eye cream.
- Limits: patches do not lift sagging skin permanently; puffiness from allergies, salt or lack of sleep comes back if the cause stays.
Who it suits
These patches suit anyone who wants a quick under-eye pick-me-up: early mornings, long screen days, flights, or before makeup. They pair naturally with the Cemenrete Calcium Dark Spot Eye Cream and the Calcium Intense Cream. To understand what causes the look of dark circles, read our guide to dark circles under the eyes.
Who should be careful
For external use only. Do not place the patches on the eyelids or the lash line, and do not use them on broken or irritated skin. The essence contains parfum and sweet almond fruit extract, which matters if you have a fragrance or nut-related skin allergy. Remove the patches right away if stinging or redness appears. Sudden swelling around one eye is a reason to see a doctor.
Patch test first. Apply a small amount to the inner forearm or behind the ear and wait 24 to 48 hours before using it on the face.

Frequently asked questions
How many uses are in one jar?
30 uses if you wear one pair under the eyes each time. Using extra patches on smile lines or the forehead means fewer sessions per jar.
Can I sleep with the patches on?
No. The brand recommends 20 to 30 minutes. Left on too long, hydrogel patches dry out and can start pulling moisture back from the skin.
Can I use them every day?
Yes, if your skin is comfortable. Many people keep them for 2 to 3 times a week or for mornings when their eyes look puffy.
Do they work under makeup?
Use them before makeup, not under it. After removing the patches, tap in the essence, let it absorb, then apply eye cream and concealer.
