The apple of my eye

Like a pebble in the hand, the sleek, light-colored box with a single button feels both simple and refined. It opens up to reveal two ergonomically shaped pieces, securely held in place by magnets. But this innovation isn’t meant for your ears, as one might assume; it’s designed for the area underneath your eyes. What at first glance resembles Apple’s wireless earbuds are, in fact, high-tech eye pads from Temprastones: a piece of design artistry, honored with the European Design Awards and poised to become a favorite beauty gadget for eye care.

Open the Box

Just like the MagSafe case of the AirPods, the Temprastones box can be charged – though only itself, not its contents. That’s because, unlike Apple’s duo, what’s inside is completely free of electronics. Instead of earbuds, it holds eye pads made of ceramic or optionally coated with silver.

But that raises the question: what exactly does this magnetic case do, and how do you use it?

Press the Button

  • Once

Naturally, intuition tells us what to do: press the button! But pressing it once won’t do anything. After all, an accidental tap can happen all too easily.

  • Twice

With a double press, however, the inside of the case heats up to 44 degrees Celsius within a minute. The eye pads absorb the warmth and can then be easily removed. And then? You place them under your eyes and hold them in place for 15 seconds.

Ideally, you apply a serum before or after, as the heat enhances the skin’s permeability: making it perfect for your evening routine.

  • Three Times

With a triple press, the inside of the case and with it, the eye pads are cooling down to 14°C. Then it’s time to press them under your eyes for another 15 seconds, helping tired morning eyes feel refreshed and radiant again.

Be rewarded with Temprastones

These high-tech eye pads are a treat for the skin, and Temprastones itself has been treated to a well-deserved award. Thanks to its successful fusion of aesthetic design and innovative eye care technology, Temprastones was honored with the European Product Design Awards 2024 in the Personal / Wellness & Beauty category.
