REVIEW: DEARY EDELWEISS HYALURONIC ACID MOISTURISING INVISIBLE ELASTIC MASK

MaskGenie Challenge Mask 18: Deary Edelweiss Hyaluronic Acid Moisturising Invisible Elastic Mask (Taiwan)


This mask was soaked completely in essence when I took it out of its packaging. The fitting was okay except for the nose again, as well as the hole for the eyes which was a bit small and it kept poking into the corner of my eye (that's probably what caused my eye infection). There's hardly a scent in the mask, so leaving it on for 20 minutes was easy. After removing the mask, my face felt very moisturised and soft, and it didn't leave any sticky feeling. The other complaint would be that the texture of the mask feels a bit cheap, but it's definitely better than the paper mask I got from Etude House last time.

REVIEW: SAM TIN DR. MORITA HYALURONIC ACID ESSENCE MASK

MaskGenie Challenge Mask 4: Sam Tin Dr. Morita Hyaluronic Acid Essence Mask (Taiwan)


The mask was quite big for my face, so it'd probably even be big enough to use on hubby. It has an ever so slight scent, and it was dripping wet when I took it out of the packaging. The mask didn't cover my nose again, and the sides kept sticking up. This is a 10-15 minute mask and it's not recommended to exceed 15 minutes, so make sure you set an alarm or sit by the clock. After 20 minutes, I removed the mask, and I realised that there was still a lot of essence left on my face, but I massaged it in, and it absorbed pretty quickly, leaving no sticky feeling on my face. My face felt hydrated afterwards, though I still prefer the Sam Tin Dr. Morita Firming Essence Facial Mask more.

REVIEW: MY SCHEMING BIRD'S NEST COLLAGEN HYDRATING MASK

MaskGenie Challenge Day 3: My Scheming Bird's Nest Collagen Hydrating Mask (Taiwan)


There was a lot of essence in the mask and it was dripping wet when I took it out of its packaging. This is a 20-30 minute mask which gives you plenty of time to relax, but also not so great if you don't have much time to spare before you head to sleep. There's not much of a scent, so that's good if you have sensitive skin or an itchy nose. The fit is great except for the nose area (it doesn't cover the sides of nose again). After removing the mask after 30 minutes, there was still a lot of essence left on my face, and it took me a while to massage it all in. It did, however, leave a slight sticky feeling on some parts of my face. My face felt tightened and hydrated (I ended up using less products in the rest of my skincare regime that night too).

REVIEW: BEAUTY MATE 3D MULTIPLE REFINING & REVITALISING SNAIL MASK (LEVEL UP)

This is the second mask that I'm trying for the MaskGenie Challenge!

MaskGenie Challenge Day 2: Beauty Mate 3D Multiple Refining & Revitalising Snail Mask Level Up (Taiwan)



There was sufficient amount of essence - it wasn't dripping wet, but it was enough to last 10-15 minutes. The good thing about this mask is that it is fragrance free, so it's particularly good if you have sensitive skin! The coverage is okay - the area below my nose and above my mouth was too long, so I had to push it up to avoid it touching my lips, and again, the sides of my nose were not covered. I was slightly disappointed to see that the mask was not a 3D one as claimed in its name. After removing the mask, there was still a lot of essence left on my face, and as I was massaging it into my face, I felt that the essence was very water-like (not sticky or thick at all), and it absorbed quickly into my skin too (like how water would). There was no sticky feeling left on my face afterwards, and surprisingly, I realised that the milia on my chin weren't bumpy anymore (this was very surprising, because they seemed impossible to get rid of)! Despite the wonders of the mask, my face felt slightly dry afterwards and desperately needed to apply moisturiser.

REVIEW: SAM TIN DR. MORITA FIRMING ESSENCE MASK

This is the first mask that I'm trying for my MaskGenie Challenge!

Mask Challenge Day 1: Sam Tin Dr. Morita Moisturising Line Firming Essence Facial Mask (Taiwan)


Suitable for dry and delicate skin / mature skin

This mask provides intense nourishment, it moisturises and repairs skin.


Organic Helichrysum contains rich orange blossom acids which are effective in repairing and soothing
Organic Elderberry Special Herb from Europe contains flavonoids, phenolic acids, and tannins that are good for soothing and repairing
DNA Repairing Element

A lot of essence was in the packet as well as in the mask - there was so much essence that it was nearly dripping as I took the mask out from its packaging! The mask is a thin cotton blend mask, and although it smells of flowers, it's not a perfume type of scent, so it wasn't irritating for my nose! It's a 10-15 minute mask, so if you don't have a lot of time (other masks are usually 20-30 minutes), this mask is great! The mask covered my face pretty well, although the sides of my nose were not really covered (pretty common in face sheet masks so I don't blame them). After I removed the mask after 15 minutes, there was no sticky feeling left on my face, and the essence absorbed into my face pretty quickly. My face felt firmer, smoother, and softer after using the mask. I must say I'm pretty impressed! This will definitely be added to the MaskGenie Pouch!!!
