Sheet Masks Review #1




101: Masks are great for any occasion. Whether it be an event, a date, or a simple day of relaxation. If you want to have good skin, masks should be a staple product in your skincare routine at least 2-3 times a week. When I have problems with my skin, I use them every single night before I go to sleep and they work miracles on the skin.


Tips: leave them for an extra 20-30 minutes for better absorption, leaving your skin soft and oh so supple. 

There can be a range of functions so give your skin what it really needs =)


Holika Holika sheet masks
I recently bought these masks at the Holika Holika store at pacific mall because my skin has been pretty bad as you can see. I have tried the cherry blossom one and the the tea tree mask. I personally like the cherry blossom mask because it smells so good and it has enough essence so the sheet doesn't dry out as quickly. It made my skin super soft and feeling hydrated. So thumbs up for the cherry blossom sheet mask =) 
As for the tea tree masks, it gave me a weird tingling sensation when I first put it on. Maybe it's because I have super sensitive skin but this is the first time I felt this. It tightened my face immediately and it was quite uncomfortable, almost like my face was burning, but it went away after 10 minutes. As opposed to other masks, this mask didn't leave my skin as plump or hydrated but it felt clean and my skin looks a lot better than it did a couple of days ago believe it or not. 

Is this really what I look like
 It didn't fit that great so I had to move the mask around. It's almost like it was made for people with small faces, large eyes, tall noses, and big lips? That's the only way I can sum it all up unfortunately. The good thing was that it didn't have the film that other sheet masks have; it was folded with plenty of essence. I left it on for about 40 minutes and the results are shown in the picture below. The essence pretty much absorbed into my skin so I didn't have to pat in any extra. The sheet masks are sold for $2.00 canadian each, which is a little expensive for this quality of masks. Overall I give them a 7/10 and I probably won't repurchase these anymore. I prefer the my beauty diary sheet masks.
