Soothing Gel Mask

My original review was titled, “better options out there”. I withdraw that statement. I’ll leave the original review below, but I’m OBSESSED with these masks. I will buy them over, and over, and over. I will never buy another sheet mask again. I could not be more sincere, these are EXCELLENT. By far, hands down, the absolute best face masks I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. I mean, I love them so much that I’ve come back and updated my review like 6 months later, okay. Anywho, let me comment that I’ve been taking immaculate care of my skin WELL before it was trendy and cool… I’ve tried it all, I’ve even paid whatever ridiculous amount for the sulwhasoo individual sheet masks… these bear sulwhasoo, dr.jart, Dennis gross, all of them….! This is a GEL face mask. Gel not as in hydrogel in lieu of the fabric sheet, gel as in the serum is a gel. It’s thick, luxurious…. And there’s so much product in the packet. If you’re a fan of gel, which I am, you will LOVE this. It just feels SO good on my skin… it feels good while the mask is on, afterwards, and when it’s been rubbed in. Truly, thick and luxurious. I don’t know a better way to phrase it. The only thing I’d change is I would prefer if there was a fragrance, but I know I am in the minority with that. I don’t see any noticeable change in my skin having been using these, other than I actually feel that they’re making my skin more HYDRATED, which is more than I typically expect from a face mask. For reference, I live at high altitude and use prescription tretinoin, so my skin is always outrageously dry. SO, feeling more hydrated, is actually HUGE. Added a picture in case it helps to get a feel for what is meant by “gel”… I also had like, a little piece of netting peel off the fabric… not sure if that’s intentional and there’s something I’m supposed to do with that or what, but it doesn’t bother me. 10000/10, have re-purchased, will repurchase again, have recommended to friends and will buy as a gift. ORIGINAL REVIEW: At the time of this review, it is about $20 for a pack of 5 masks. As a bit of a skin care conniseur, I can assure you that there are better masks out there for that price (or really, even less). It's a standard face mask, works as expected. I have used all 5 masks and have not noticed any change to my skin - that said, I would say that this is TYPICALLY my experience... I use face masks more as a form of self care than thinking a noticeable result will be produced. All that to say - the masks work, and for a good price (a bargain price) I would probably recommend them. However, I just can't encourage anyone to purchase at this price. TLDR: find yourself a cheaper face mask, there are many that are just as good if not better!

The serum with this mask is very thick, more than other masks I've used. There is a refreshing and relaxing added fragrance that I relly enjoy (not sure what it is, just smells very fresh and rejuvenating). This mask fits my face around eyes, nose, and mouth better than any mask I've used to date, though it did slip around my mouth just from drinking while wearing it. It stayed very well elsewhere. There is no particular sensation other than cooling when walking around. After the 20 minutes there was plenty of serum left to tap into my skin. The whole experience of using this mask was lovely, more so than any other masks I've used. However... The serum feels greasy to the touch as it soaks in, and doesn't feel like it ever fully absorbs. Any products applied after also feel greasy, and my face, where it didn't rub off on my pillow, was still greasy in the morning. But, my face was also very soft and hydrated in the morning, which is exactly what I'm looking for in a sheet mask. The ingredients are few, with niacinamide high on the list, plus 4 peptides. I really like that compared to the multitude of ingredients in many other masks. I didn't notice any immediate brightening effect, but realistically it will take multiple applications over a longer period of time to see results from niacinamide. So I'm conflicted. I love the experience of this mask, but not the greasiness after. It's also in the mid range for price per mask (about $5 per mask at the time of this review), and I feel like I've used cheaper ones with similar results that don't leave me greasy. One note about the greasiness - it may be exactly the effect you're looking for. This mask would do very well for a long lasting "just out of the shower" look, if that's something you're into.

I recently tried out this face mask, and overall, it did the job as expected. One thing worth mentioning is the thickness of the serum on the mask. It's a bit hard to articulate, but it's definitely on the thicker side. I applied the mask while catching up on my favorite TV shows, and I did notice that it took quite a while for the serum to fully absorb into my skin. Fortunately, this wasn't a major issue for me, as I used it in the evening with a few hours to spare before bedtime. One quirk about the mask itself is its size—it's huge! I had to fold and position it in a somewhat awkward manner to ensure it covered my face without the nose flap and upper lip section feeling suffocating. Despite this sizing challenge, I still managed to enjoy the self-care experience, and it didn't detract significantly from the overall use of the product.

My initial impression was overall confusion. I am not a mask-person, but I thought I would give this a go. It does appear to be sized for a face a bit smaller than mine, but I managed okay to put it on, though I was confused about what side goes against face; there is a slick side and a netted side. The instructions are translated into English, but not well. Step 1 says to "...arrange your skin texture with toner", I don't know if that means that I should buy and use a toner in advance of applying this mask? In any case, I put it on my face and immediately felt a cooling sensation. I did note that it is VERY moist (lots of product should be a plus, right?). After I removed the mask I wasn't sure what I should do, the instructions say to "take off the sheet... and tap it gently", which I'm assuming they mean to tap my skin, and not the discarded mask. To be on the safe side I washed my face with cleanser afterwards. Over all, not bad. I'm not sure if I'll buy again, but definitely a fun self-care experiment.

MY ⭐️RATINGS: 3⭐️- NOT BAD. I would recommend it as a second resort. The mask is soothing and hydrating on my skin. After each mask, my skin is brightened and smoother looking. Fine lines around my lips aren’t as noticeable. I did wish the results lasted longer than a couple of hours. This is a mask I will continue to use before a special event. The masks are easy to use. HOW I USE: ONCE A WEEK 1 - Cleanse my face 2 - I apply a mask and leave on for about 20 minutes. 3 - Remove mask and massage in any remaining serum from the mask. 4 - LAST, I finish with my usual moisturizer. EXPIRATION DATE: 08/22/2024 I always check for an expiration date before using, ESPECIALLY with health & beauty products. PROPERLY SEALED: ✅ It is important to me how manufacturers seal & ship their products. This item was PROPERLY SEALED, as you can see from the pictures. To me, this means the manufacturer cares about its products.✔️ These mask are as advertised, and work well. The PRICE is in the usual range.

I didn't take good care of my skin for several days, and tried a new cleansing brush that was way too rough for my dry, sensitive skin. It was chapped and uncomfortable. Usually I would not use a treatment until my skin is healed but wanted to see if the soothing properties of this sheet mask would offer some relief. The answer is yes! The mask has a mesh piece that you can peel off, which I really like on face masks as it makes it easier to apply and unwrap, and seems to reduce risk of tearing the mask. The pouch is loaded with serum. The mask is completely saturated. It felt so good to apply and provided almost instant relief to my dry skin. It did not slip off either. The scent is very light and fresh, a clean scent. The serum is kind of sticky and will leave a residue once it dries, though that may be partly due to how much there is in the pouch. There was enough serum left over for me to apply for a couple of days after using the mask. I used it for the full 20 minutes of the recommended 10 to 20. My skin was softer and soothed when I took off the mask. Note the instructions say to apply toner first, so make sure you have some on hand when you decide to use this product.

Using these moisturizing masks in Arizona is helping with the dry desert climate. I actually sleep with these on. You're only supposed to use them for 20 minutes or so. Anyways, this mask in particular is VERY wet and slimy. I feel like it holds moisture well because in the morning when I wake up, it's still fairly damp. But, does it actually do anything? I can't say. Besides scaring my dog, I don't know if this is really helping.
