celimax TXA Brightening Eye Patch
Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read
Read on 2026-09-21
What is this product?
A hydrogel-type brightening eye patch with tranexamic acid at a disclosed 1%, plus niacinamide and caffeine placed high in the list, for dull under-eyes and early tone care. It is fragrance-free with no drying alcohol, and soothing agents like centella and allantoin round out the formula.
What makes it different?
Unlike many brightening patches that bury their hero actives late, this one places niacinamide fourth, caffeine seventh and tranexamic acid eighth among 34 items, with the tranexamic acid concentration printed at 1%. The formula is fragrance-free and contains no drying alcohol, and soothing plus barrier items such as centella extract, ceramide NP and acetyl tetrapeptide-5 appear in the later half. The brand also discloses a pH range of 5.6 to 7.6 in its FAQ, which is uncommon for a patch.

says nothing1
- The Celimax TXA Brightening Eye Patch product can also be stored refrigerated, but if there are frequent temperature changes, there is a risk of product deterioration, so long-term refrigerated storage is not recommended. Since cosmetics are generally developed based on storage at room temperature (10~20°C), we recommend storing in a cool place away from direct sunlight.
Korean original
셀리맥스 티엑스에이 브라이트닝 아이패치 제품은 냉장 보관도 가능하지만, 잦은 온도 변화가 있을 경우 제품 변질 우려가 있어 장기간 냉장 보관은 권장드리지 않습니다. 화장품은 일반적으로 상온(10~20°C) 보관을 기준으로 개발되므로, 직사광선을 피해 서늘한 곳에 보관하시는 것을 추천드립니다.
