Tonymoly I'm Real Mask Sheet Lemon

This morning, I had plenty of time so I decided to sheet mask. I went for this mask from the budget friendly sheet mask range 'I'm Real' from Tonymoly. It was the third time I used it so I figured it was about time I made a review of it.

Claims
"Lemon mask makes dull and dark skin look radiant".

The packaging
I love the packaging from the 'I'm Real' masks - so cute and still simple. On the back side you can find claims, directions and ingredients list in both Korean and English.

Noticeable ingredients
Allantoin (anti-inflammatory, soothing), Lemon Fruit Extract (brightening) and Licorice Fruit Extract (smoothing, soothing, anti-inflammatory).

Full ingredients list and directions:

The mask

When I opened the pouch and took out the mask, it was easy to unfold.

The sheet material was stiff and thicker than average sheet material.

Essence

The essence was clear and thin. The sheet didn't drip while I unfolded it and the essence didn't run down my neck while I was wearing the mask.

There was some essence left in the pouch.

Smell

The essence had a nice smell - like lemon candy. Some might find the smell artificial but I liked it. I didn't find it too strong or overwhelming even though it was noticeable while the mask was on.

Fit

The fit was not good. Due to the stiff sheet material, the mask didn't adhere well to my skin so even though there were plenty of slits to adjust the fit, it was difficult to do so, Both the holes for the eyes and the mouth were big enough. 

Time

According to the back of the pouch, you should leave the mask on for 20-30 minutes. I left the mask on for 25 minutes before it started to dry and let go at the edges.

While wearing the mask, it had a pleasant cooling effect.

Results

When I took the sheet off, the remaining essence absorbed after about 10 minutes. It left my skin a little sticky but that went away when I continued my skincare routine. 

My skintone was evened out nicely and my skin no longer looked dull. Instead, it had a beautiful glow.

Price

This costs somewhere between $1 and $2 (USD) depending on where you buy it so it's a budget friendly mask.

Would I recommend?

Sure. This is a nice budget friendly mask if you don't mind the stiff material.

Pros:

- Lovely smell.

- Does as it claims to do.

- Budget friendly.

Cons:

- Stiff material.

- The fit was not good.

Would I repurchase?

I probably won't repurchase this because of the stiff material and bad fit. Instead, I will try to find a mask with similar results and a better fit.
