Innisfree It's Real Squeeze Mask Manuka Honey



My skin has been a bit angry lately so I decided to use this sheet mask last night die to its anti-bacterial and healing ingredients.

Noticeable ingredients
Honey Extract (moisturizing, anti-bacterial), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (skin conditioning) and Sodium Hyaluronate (hydrating).

As you can see on the ingredients list, this mask - like all the other masks from this line - contains a bunch of different plant and fruit extracts.
Full ingredients list:


Claims
"This sheet mask with nutrient-rich manuka honey moisturizes dry and stiff skin for a dewy look".

The mask


When I opened the pouch and took out the sheet, it was easy to unfold.
The sheet material was medium thick and a little stiff.

Essence
The sheet was soaked in clear, relatively thin essence. It didn't run down my neck while I was wearing it but it did drip a bit while I was unfolding it.
There was a litte essence left in the pouch.

Smell
The essence had a weird smell. It's difficult to explain but I think it was a mixture between honey and alcohol?
I didn't like the smell and unfortunately it was noticeable while I was wearing the mask.

Fit
The fit was large but the sheet had slits at the cheeks and the chin to adjust the mask for a better fit.
Once the mask was placed on my face, it didn't move 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 when I took it off, it had started to dry around the nose and at the edges.

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

Results
After taking the sheet off, the remaining essence absorbed after a while - I lost track of time but it didn't absorb quickly.
Unfortunately, it left my skin sticky.
Besides the sticky feeling, my skin also felt very nourished. When I woke up the next morning my skin had a beautiful, healthy glow.

Would I recommend this?
No. The smell is simply too strong but if you don't have a sensitive nose and your skin absorbs the essence better, you might like it.

Price
This retails for about $1.50 so it's inexpensive.

Repurchase?
No, the strong smell and the sticky feeling afterwards bothered me too much.

Rating
2.5/5
