The £22 Korean collagen pads used on Love Island for 'glass skin' have become a sensation among fans. These pads contain a mix of collagen, ceramide, and milk protein, designed to 'firm and lift saggy skin'. Love Island enthusiasts are snapping up this Korean skincare item, which has been one of this year's key beauty secrets in the villa.
What Are Mediheal Collagen Ampoule Pads?
The Mediheal Collagen Ampoule Pad (100 Pads) is used as the first step in your skincare routine, providing a hydrating glow and radiance. Containing a blend of collagen, ceramide, and milk protein, these pads can be swiped across the face or left on for five to ten minutes in areas where fine lines are most prevalent. Users report that their skin 'looks like glass' due to the radiance, and they also claim their makeup applies much smoother afterwards.
User Reviews
One five-star review for the Mediheal Collagen Ampoule Pads reads: 'Brilliant product. This does do exactly as it says, my skin texture looked great, it was more hydrated and radiant and looked firmer. It sank into the skin brilliantly and felt lovely.' Another user said: 'I bought these on a whim, after feeling like my skin was looking dull and tired. I'm 47 and I genuinely believe these have greatly improved my skin. I will 100% purchase them again when they run out.' While a third fan commented: 'As a fan of Mediheal products, I really love the collagen ampoule pads. These are the ones I reach for when my skin needs a bit of extra hydration and I like to use these as a mini mask, they leave my skin feeling soft, plump and fresh with a really natural glow. Say hello to hydrated glass skin!'
Despite an impressive five-star average rating, one shopper didn't see immediate results. They said: 'Happy I found these, they're a good texture and feel. Not sure how effective they are, but worth trying for a little while longer.'
Alternative Products
Alternatively, the BIODANCE Collagen Gel Toner Pads are priced at a slightly cheaper £20 and contain 10% collagen water along with Oligo hyaluronic acid and galactomyces to help reduce the appearance of pores and texture. Another K-beauty favourite, these pads have earned a high 4.8/5 star rating on Space NK's website where one shopper said they're 'like a 10 step routine all in one product'.
For those wanting an all-over summer glow, this year's Islanders have also been spotted using the Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Body Oil 200 ml, which is currently on offer for £5.50 instead of £8 at Boots. Formulated with 100% natural cocoa butter, this moisturiser has a delicious fragrance which works as a great base layer for your holiday perfume.
