Nature Republic Real Nature Mask Sheet Acai Berry


Tonight's sheet mask was Nature Republic Real Nature Mask Sheet Acai Berry. This mask from Nature Republic is from their very affordable sheet mask line 'Real Nature'.

Packaging
The packaging of this is pretty standard when it comes to sheet masks with plants/berries - with a picture of the berries on the front side. On the back side there's directions and ingredients list both in Korean and in English.
There's also small slits to make it easy to open the packaging.


Noticeable ingredients
Grapefruit Extract (skin conditioning) and Achillea Millefolium Extract (anti-inflammatory).

Full ingredients list and directions:


Claims
"Acai Berry extracts moisturize and reduce wrinkles". 

The mask

 When I opened the pouch and took out the mask, it was easy to unfold.
As you can see on the pictures above, the sheet material was white and thicker than average sheet material. It didn't break easily.

Essence
The essence was white and lotion-y. Even though there was plenty of it, it didn't drip while I unfolded the neck or run down my neck while I was wearing the mask - probably because the essence was so thick.
There was a lot of essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a strong smell of artificial berries and alcohol. Luckily, the smell was barely noticeable while on.

Fit
The fit was large. Like way too large - the mouth hole was so big that my mouth would be able to fit in there twice. 
There were two slits on each side of the cheeks making it possible to adjust the mask for a better fit.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I kept it on for half an hour and it was still wet when I took it off.

While wearing the mask it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I removed the sheet from my face, there was a lot of essence left on my skin. It absorbed after about half an hour but it left a tacky finish that didn't go away.
It left my skin so moisturized.
(I can't tell you whether this works on wrinkles since I'm only in my early twenties).

Would I recommend?
No. I did enjoy how much it moisturized my skin but there's just too many negative things about it for me to recommend it (the alcohol smell, bad fit and sticky residue).

Price
This retails at $1 (USD) so it's inexpensive.

Repurchase?
No.

Holika Holika Pure Essence Mask Sheet Cucumber


I colored my eyebrows two days ago which has made the skin around my eyebrows red, irritated and itchy. So last night when I was going to sheet mask, I decided to use this mask from Holika Holika to sooth my skin.

The packaging
The packaging looks appealing to me. Unlike a lot of other sheet masks, this line comes with an "easy open" function which makes it easy to open (obviously) and you don't get annoyed by slips.


Noticeable ingredients
Centella Asiatica Extract (anti-inflammatory, smoothing, soothing), Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract (skin protecting), Allantoin (soothing) and Cucumis Sativus (cucumber) Fruit Extract (skin conditioning).

Full ingredients list and directions:


Claims
"A moisturizing sheet provides moisture to skin and keeps it hydrated with cucumber extract".

The mask

When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was difficult to unfold.
The sheet material was very thin - almost as thin as the 'Etude House 0.2 Therapy Air Mask' line. The sheet didn't break easily.

Essence
The essence was clear, thin and runny. There was plenty of it - so much that it was dripping when I unfolded the sheet and it ran down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was a lot of essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a pleasant smell. It's hard to describe the smell but it wasn't strong or overwhelming. It wasn't noticeable while I was wearing the mask.

Fit
The fit was great. There were one slit on each cheek and at the eyes to adjust the fit. Since the sheet material didn't break easily, it was no problem to do so. Both the holes for the eyes and the hole for the mouth were big enough. It adhered well to my skin.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and it was still very damp when I took it off.

While wearing the mask, it had a nice cooling effect. It didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took off the sheet, the remaining essence absorbed after about 25 minutes. It left a slightly tacky and sticky finish but that went away when I continued my skincare routine.
This mask was soothing and hydrating. My skin was irritated when I put this on and this mask did a nice job calming it.

Would I recommend?
Sure. This is a nice budget friendly mask that does what it claims to do. The only negative thing I can say about it, is that it takes a long time to fully absorb.

Price
This costs $2 (USD).

Repurchase?
I will definitely buy this again in the future.

Pros:
- Comfortable sheet material
- Nice fit
- No noticeable smell
- Does what it claims
- Didn't irritate my skin at all
- Cheap

Cons:
- Takes a long time to absorb

Etude House 0.2 Therapy Air Mask Strawberry


I had trouble falling asleep last night so when I woke up this morning, I looked a bit like a zombie. I was so tired - I had puffy bags under my eyes and my skin looked dull. I decided to use this sheet mask in my AM skincare routine in my attempt to look more alive. I'm happy to say that it worked!

Noticeable ingredients
Niacimide (brightening), Strawberry Fruit Extract (rich in vitamins), Allantoin (soothing), Licorice Root Extract (anti-inflammatory, smoothing, soothing) and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (moisturizing, antioxidant).

As you can see on the full ingredients list below, this mask is 7 free: Imidazolidinyl Urea, Polyacrymide, Triethanolamine, Mineral Oil, Silicon Oil, Pigment and Fragrance.


Claims

"The mask moisturizes skin with the abundant moisture of fresh strawberry extract and makes skin look clear and bright with Niacimide, a skin whitening agent".

The mask



When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was difficult to unfold.
The sheet material was super thin (0.2 mm) as you can see on the pictures above. 

Essence
The sheet was soaked in clear, thin and runny essence. There was so much that it started dripping as soon as I took the sheet out of the pouch and it kept dripping while I unfolded the sheet. It also ran down my neck while I was wearing the mask.

Smell
The smell of the essence surpriced me. I was expecting a smell of strawberry but in my opinion, it actually was more of a citrus-y smell. I did like the smell even though it was not what I expected.
Since this mask (or any other of the masks from this line, for that matter) doesn't contain fragrance, the smell was natural and not overwhelming. It was barely noticeable while the mask was on.

Fit
The fit was, as it always is with masks from this line, great. Both the holes for the eyes and the hole for the mouth were big enough for me. There were one slit on each side of the cheek to adjust the fit and since the sheet material didn't break easily, it was no problem adjusting the mask for a better fit.
Once the mask was on, it adhered so well to my skin and due to how thin the sheet material was, I felt like my skin could breath.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and it was still super wet when I took it off. 

While wearing the mask, it had a nice cooling effect. It didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took the sheet off, the remaining essence absorbed after about 20 minutes. It left a sticky residue but that disappeared when I continued my skincare routine.
Besides the sticky residue, it evened out my skintone so well and my face just looked refreshed - no more dull and zombie-looking skin. My skin looked clear and felt hydrated but not hydrated enough for me to skip the 'cream' step in my routine afterwards. 

Would I recommend?
Definetely. This is a nice every day mask.

Price
This costs $1.30 (USD) on www.etudehouse.com.

Repurchase?
I will probably repurchase this in the future. It's nice to have on those tired, zombie-looking days ;)

Missha Pure Source Cell Sheet Mask Honey


Here's a review of the sheet mask I used the other night. This is another mask from the budget friendly 'Pure Source Cell' sheet mask line from Missha.

Noticeable ingredients
Isopropyl Palmitate (moisturizing), Honey Ferment Filtrate (nourishing), Portulaca Oleracea Extract (skin conditioning), Allantoin (soothing), Hexadimethrine Chloride (restores, soothing) and Phytic Acid (moisturizing).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
"Sheet mask containing honey essence in its compact cell fabric gives skin satiny texture of flowing honey. Nutritious honey extract makes skin moisturized and provides healthy radiance to the skin".

The mask

 When I opened the pouch and took out the mask, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was made compact woden cells and it was thicker than average sheet material.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in white milky essence. It didn't drip while I unfolded the sheet and it didn't run down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was plenty of essence left in the pouch.

Smell
It had a lovely smell of honey. The smell wasn't too strong or overwhelming and it was barely noticeable while the mask was on.

Fit
The fit was nice. Both the holes for the eyes and the hole for the mouth were big enough. There were slits at the eyes and one slit on each side of the cheeks to adjust the mask for a better fit. The sheet material didn't break easily so it was no problem adjusting the mask for a better fit.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes. I left it on for 25 minutes and it was still damp when I took it off.

While wearing the mask, it had a nice cooling effect. It didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took the sheet off, the remaining essence on my skin absorbed within a few minutes.
It left my skin non-sticky and non-shiny. My skin had a nice glow and it felt a bit nourished. However, it was not nourishing enough for my dry skin. I had to use a moisturizing cream afterwards. After using nourishing sheet masks, I usually just have to use a hydrating cream.

Would I recommend?
Not to those of you with dry skin but I think it will be good to those with oily skin because it's nourishing but not that nourishing, if you know what I mean?

Price
This costs $2 (USD) at www.misshaus.com so it's a budget friendly mask.

Repurchase?
I will not repurchase this. It was a nice mask but when I use a nourishing mask, I need it to be nourishing enough for my dry skin - like the honey mask from Welcos (review here)

The Face Shop Real Nature Calendula Face Mask


I bought a packet with 10 masks on eBay - one of each kind from this line. I gave me the opportunity to try all the masks and then order more of the ones that I like. Spoiler alert: This is not one of the masks that I am going to buy again.

Noticeable ingredients
Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract (skin conditioning), Betaine (moisturizing) and Allantoin (soothing).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
"The mask sheet drenched in serum with Calendula helps smooth dry, rough, dead surface cells".

The mask



When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was difficult to unfold due to the amount of slits.
The sheet material was medium thick and very soft.

Essence
The essence was thin and runny and there was plenty of it.
There was some left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a flower-ish smell - nothing overwhelming.

Fit
The fit was okay. There were plenty of slits to adjust the mask and both the holes for the eyes and the hole for the mouth were big enough.
Once the mask was on, it stayed in its place the whole time I was wearing the mask.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-15 minutes. I left it on for 20 minutes. I could easily have left it on longer because the mask was still drenched in essence but since it made my skin sting (probably because of the amount of alcohol), I took it off.

Results
The remaining essence on my skin absorbed quickly. It left my skin non-sticky and non-shiny and a bit hydrated.
Unfortunately, when I woke up the next morning, I had gotten a bunch of pimples and bumps.

Would I recommend?
No.

Price
This costs somewhere between $1 and $2 (USD) depending on where you buy it.

Repurchase?
No.

Innisfree It's Real Squeeze Mask Rose



Another sheet mask review of a mask from the 'It's Real Squeeze Mask' line from Innisfree.

Noticeable ingredients
Rosa Centifolia Flower Juice (moisturizing), Sodium Hyaluronate (hydrating) and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (moisturizing, antioxidant).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
"This sheet mask with fragrant moisture squeezed roses leaves skin looking smooth and radiant".

The mask





When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was - as it always is with this line - a little thicker than average sheet material due to the three layer.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in clear, thin essence.
There was so much essence that it started dripping as soon as I took the sheet out of the pouch. It also ran down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was plenty of essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a lovely but strong smell of roses. I really enjoyed it since it was just like the smell of Mamonde Rose Water Toner which I just love. The rose smell was noticeable while the mask was on.

Fit
The fit was nice. There were one slit on each side of the cheek/chin and slits at the eyes to adjust for a better fit. The holes for the eyes and the hole for the mouth were big enough for my face.
The sheet material didn't break easily so it was easy to adjust the mask for a better fit.
Once the mask was on, it adhered well to my skin and it stayed in its place the whole time I was wearing it.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes.
I left it on for half an hour and it was still really wet when I took it off.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took off the sheet, the remaining essence absorbed after about 20 minutes.
It left a sticky residue but that disappeared when I continued my routine.
This mask made my skin radiant and smooth just like it claims to do.

Would I recommend?
Yes. This is a nice every day mask and if you look aside the sticky residue, I have nothing bad to say about it.
I think it will fit all skintypes but if you're easily irritated by strong scents, this is not the mask for you.

Price
This costs $1.20 (USD) at www.innisfreeworld.com so it's inexpensive.

Repurchase?
I might repurchase this if I ever find it on sale but it's not a mask I will go out of my way to repurchase.

Holika Holika Juicy Mask Sheet Blueberry


I used this mask the other morning and I am so impressed by it! I honestly just bought this because the packaging looked tempting so I didn't expect anything.

Noticeable ingredients
Sodium Hyaluronate (hydrating), Vaccinium Angustifolium (Blueberry) Fruit Extract (anti-inflammatory, soothing) and Allantoin (soothing).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
"Mask sheet containing blueberry juice for vibrant skin".

The mask 



When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was a little thinner than average sheet material and it didn't break easily.

Essence
The essence was clear and there was plenty of it. So much that it was dripping while I unfolded the sheet and it ran down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was a little essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a strong smell of artificial blueberry. I didn't find it overwhelming but some might since it was noticeable while the mask was on.

Fit
The fit was nice. The hole for the mouth was a bit small but that was the only bad thing I can say about it. There were slits to adjust the fit.
Once the mask was on, it adhered nicely to my skin and it stayed in its place the whole time I was wearing it.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes. I left it on for 25 minutes before it started to dry.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
The remaining essence on my skin absorbed after about five minutes.
It left my skin feeling non-sticky and my t-zone didn't look oily. It evened out my skintone and my skin looked vibrant and had a nice glow that lasted all day.
It literally made it look like I had slept for two extra hours! The puffiness under my eyes were gone and my skin no longer looked tired and dull.

Would I recommend?
I highly recommend this mask to anyone who wants vibrant, less tired-zombie-looking skin. However, if you have a sensitive nose, the strong scent of blueberry might irritate you.

Price
This costs about $2 (USD) and you can often find it cheaper online.

Repurchase?
I will definetely buy this again!

Innisfree It's Real Squeeze Mask Strawberry


I've used this mask three times now so I feel like I've given it a fair chance. Unfortunately, it didn't impress me.

Noticeable ingredients
Niacimide (anti-inflammatory, brightening), Strawberry Fruit Juice (skin conditioning), Sodium Hyaluronate (hydrating) and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (moisturizing, antioxidant).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
This sheet mask with moisture from squeezed strawberries leaves skin looking smooth and bright.

The mask



When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was on the thicker side since it is made of a three layer sheet. It didn't break easily.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in clear, thin essence. It was dripping while I was unfolding the sheet and it ran down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There were some essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a strong smell. It was a mixture if strawberries and alcohol - it reminded me of the drink "Strawberry Daiquiri".
The smell was noticeable while the mask was on and it was a little overwhelming.

The first time I used this mask, the smell wasn't too strong but the second and third time, it was overwhelming. You can't count on this line when it comes to smell - it varies from mask to mask even though they're all supposed to be the same.

Fit
The fit was nice. The sheet had slits at the eyes and the cheeks to adjust the mask for a better fit.
Once the mask was placed on my face, it stayed in its placed the whole time I was wearing it.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and it was still damp when I took it off.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took the sheet off, the remaining essence on my skin absorbed after a while. Well, it actually never felt like the remaining essence was totally absorbed since my skin was left sticky and that feeling didn't go away.

This mask had an instant brightening effect but it didn't last more than a few hours.
However, it did make my skin look more clear and smooth and that feeling lasted until the next day.

Would I recommend?
I do not recommend this mask. If you still feel like trying it even after reading this review, just be careful especially if you have sensitive skin - the amount of alcohol might be irritating.

Price
This costs $1.20 (USD) on www.innisfreeworld.com so it's inexpensive.

Repurchase?
No.

Welcos Juju Natural Mask Canola Honey


 Noticeable ingredients
Allantoin (soothing), Camellia Japonica Flower Extract (skin conditioning) and Honey Extract (moisturizing, anti-bacterial).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
This mask claims to be nourishing and tighten the skin.

The mask


When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was difficult to unfold.
The sheet material was - like with the Aloe mask from this line (review here) - medium thick but very fragile.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in clear essence. It wasn't watery but it wasn't that thick either - somewhere in between.
Even though there was plenty of essence, it didn't drip when I unfolded the mask and it didn't run down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was a little essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a lovely smell of honey. It wasn't too strong or overwhelming even though it was noticeable while I was wearing the mask.

Fit
The fit was not good. Actually, it was terrible. Even though it had slits to improve and adjust the fit, it was difficult to do so because of how easily the sheet material broke.
Once the mask was on, it adhered well to my skin and it stayed in its place the whole time I was wearing the mask.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and it was still damp when I took it off.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
After taking the sheet off, the remaining essence on my skin absorbed within a few minutes.
It left my skin feeling so soft and nourished and it gave my skin a nice glow.

Unlike a lot of other nourishing sheet masks, this didn't make my t-zone look oily which makes it perfect to use in AM routines too.

Would I recommend?
If you look at the results, this is a great mask - especially at its price - but if you look at the sheet material, it's not good. So if you don't mind the awful fit and the fragile material, I highly recommend you to try this. I think it will fit all skintypes but if you have a senstive nose, the honey smell might irritate you.

Price
This costs less than $1 for a mask so it's a very budget friendly mask but if you look at the sheet material, you can see that you get what you pay for.

Repurchase?
I still have a few of these left but once I've used them, I will not repurchase it.

Welcos Juju Natural Mask Aloe


I've used this mask six times now so I feel like I've given it a fair chance. It's probably the most budget friendly mask I've ever used since this retails at less than $1 (USD) for a mask.

Noticeable ingredients
Allantoin (soothing), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract (soothing, moisturizing) and Camellia Japonica Flower Extract (skin conditioning).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
This mask is supposed to be soothing and moisturizing.

The mask


When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was difficult to unfold.
The sheet material was medium thick but it was really fragile and it broke super easily.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in clear, thin and slimy essence. It didn't drip while I was unfolding the sheet and it didn't run down my neck while I was wearing the mask.

Smell
The essence had a nice and fresh smell. It wasn't overwhelming and it was barely noticeable while the mask was on.

Fit
The fit was terrible. Like seriously bad. Even though it had slits to improve the fit, it was difficult to adjust the mask due to how easily the material broke.
Once the mask was on, it adhered well to my skin and stayed in its place the whole time I was wearing the mask.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and it was still damp when I took it off.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took the sheet off, the remaining essence on my skin absorbed within a few minutes. I left my skin feeling a little sticky but that went away after about 10 minutes.
My skin felt soothed and hydrated.

Would I recommend?
If you only focus on the results, this mask delivers what it claims and it is a nice mask but if you look at the material and the fit, it's terrible. So if you don't really care about the fit and the material, I recommend this mask. I think it will fit all skintypes.

Price
As I mentioned in the top of this review, the mask costs less than $1 (USD).

Repurchase
No. I like the results but the fit and material ruins it for me.

Missha Pure Source Cell Sheet Mask Mango


This sheet mask is from the 'Pure Source Cell' sheet mask line from Missha. I have used this mask four times now (I think?) and I've enjoyed it every time.

Noticeable ingredients
Portulaca Oleracea Extract (skin conditioning), Mangifera Indica (Mango) Fruit Extract (smoothing, radiance), Allantoin (soothing) and Phytic Acid (moisturizing).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
"Sheet mask containing mango essence in its compact cell fabric makes skin moist and flawless".

The mask


When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was thicker than average sheet material but due to the compact cell fabric, I still felt like my skin could breath.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in white milky essence. It was dripping while I unfolded the sheet and it ran down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was plenty of essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a delicious smell of mango. I was strong and noticeable while I was wearing the mask but I love the smell of mango so it didn't bother me. The smell was also noticeable when I had taken the sheet off and the essence was absorbed.

Fit
The fit was nice - a bit large at the cheeks. It had one slit on each side of the cheeks and at the eyes to adjust the mask for a better fit and since the material didn't break easily, it was no problem to adjust the mask. Both the holes for the eyes and the holes for the mouth were big enough.
Once the mask was on, it adhered nicely to my skin and it stayed in its place the whole time I was wearing it.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and when I took it off, it was still very wet.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took the sheet off, the remaining essence on my skin absorbed quickly.
It left my skin non-sticky and my t-zone didn't look shiny - instead my entire face had a beautiful glow. My skintone was evened out a bit and my skin looked smooth and radiant. It also felt moisturized.
When I use this in my AM routine, my skin gets a nice, healthy glow that lasts the entire day.

Would I recommend?
YES! This is such a nice and budget friendly mask. I think it will fit all skintypes but senstive noses (and sensitive skin) might be irritated by the amount of fragrance and the strong smell.

Price
This costs $2 (USD) at www.misshaus.com and you can find it cheaper other places online so it's a budget friendly mask.

Repurchase?
Definetely!

Innisfree It's Real Squeeze Mask Rice


Another sheet mask review of a sheet mask from the 'It's Real Squeeze' line from Innisfree.

Noticeable ingredients
Rice Extract (brightening), Aloe Barbedensis Leaf Juice (soothing), Sodium Hyaluronate (hydrating) and Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (moisturizing, antioxidant).

Full ingredients list:


Claims
"This sheet mask with nutritious and pure rice extracts helps dull skin look clear an bright".

The mask


When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was thick as you can see on the pictures. I expected this since it is a triple layer sheet.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in white lotion-y essence.
It didn't drip while I was unfolding the mask but it did run a bit down my neck while I was wearing the mask.
There was plenty of essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a pleasant smell of rice. The smell wasn't too strong or overwhelming but it was noticeable while I was wearing the mask.

Fit
The fit was okay. The hole around the mouth was a bit small. There were slits on the sides of the cheeks making it possible to adjust the mask for a better fit. It didn't break easily so it was no problem adjusting the mask.

Time
According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 10-20 minutes. I left it on for half an hour and I could easily have left it on longer since it hadn't even started to dry.

While wearing the mask, it didn't irritate my skin or feel uncomfortable at all.

Results
When I took the sheet off, there was plenty of essence left on my skin. It didn't absorb well. After half an hour, my skin still felt very sticky - like the essence hadn't absorbed at all.

The mask had an instant brightening effect. It evened out my skin so well - even my red cheeks.
It was so nourishing that I didn't feel like my skin needed any more products. However, I did use Laneige Water Sleeping Pack afterwards to add some hydration. The sleeping also helped my skin to feel less sticky since it absorbed well.
The next morning my skin felt really soft.

Would I recommend?
This is a nice mask that delivers what it claims. The only problem for me was the absorption - if your skin absorbs the essence better than mine, then it's a good mask! Due to how nourishing it is, I think it will fit people with normal/dry skin best.

Price
This costs $1.20 (USD) on www.innisfreeworld.com so it's a budget friendly mask.

Repurchase?
I will not repurchase this due to the sticky feeling it left my skin with.
