REVIEW: ETUDE HOUSE HAND BOUQUET RICH BUTTER FOOT MASK

MaskGenie Challenge Mask 16: Etude House Hand Bouquet Rich Butter Foot Mask (Korea)


This mask was a little annoying, since there are actually two steps to it: firstly putting the mask on, then secondly putting the plastic sleeve on. I didn't realise there were two steps to mask, so I (stupidly) left the packaging on the table while I took the masks over to the bed to take photos, then to realise that the foot masks were really moist, so I had to slide myself across the bed to get the other half of the packaging. The size of the foot mask, I would say, is rather small - I wear a size 38 and it was just right, but any bigger feet would find it too small. The mask smells of shea butter, which is really nice. After putting on the plastic sleeve and taping it, I could finally walk, but the tape was on too tight. It was quite hard to massage (like how it said on the instructions) because of how small the mask and sleeve was. I removed the mask after 30 minutes, and my feet still had a lot of essence. I massaged the essence in, and my feet felt really soft and smooth!

REVIEW: ETUDE HOUSE COLLAGEN MOISTFULL MASK SHEET

MaskGenie Challenge Mask 12: Etude House Collagen Moistfull Mask Sheet


When I took the mask out of its packaging, I originally thought that it was going to be a rough and harsh mask, but luckily that was just the plastic...but the mask wasn't really much better - the mask is not made of cotton, but in fact, it felt like a piece of paper (did I receive a fake?), and obviously paper doesn't stick well to the face, and the shape of the mask didn't help at all. Someone also commented on my Instagram photo saying the same thing about the mask feeling like paper, so it's not just me. The mask was dripping wet when I took it out, but surprisingly, after 20 minutes, the nose part was dry already although the rest of my face was still very moist. The essence absorbed very quickly into the skin, and my skin felt soft, smooth, and pores tightened. No sticky feeling.

I have tried using the 3D Princess masks from Etude House, and they were a nice and silky cotton sheet mask, but of course, those masks were more expensive, so perhaps it's because they're from a different series? I talked to the lady I bought the masks from, and she said that the brand, Etude House, is actually aimed at teenagers and the early 20s, and they have less expectations, so hence the poorer quality. Not sure if that's the case, but oh wells, moving on...
