REVIEW ON MORITAYA TOFU YOGURT PACK


I think if you are with me, enjoying food and skincare are two blissful things.  Today review is skincare and food blended into one package- Moritaya Tofu Yogurt Pack.

It has really interesting ingredients and I am a sucker for something that can make my face like TOFU!  Who doesn't right?  Tofu is actually bean curd.  Moritaya tofu yogurt pack is actually part of my haul from Japan.

Pack is actually mask =).

Please excuse me looking like an idiot here.  I wet the cotton pad with toner/green tea water and apply really thick moritaya tofu mask on top of the cotton pad. You could use those compressed mask too. Just make sure the 'sheets' is really thin. The moritaya yogurt pack could double up as prevention for mask sheets to dry up slowly.

The rice bran oil which has squalene makes the skin smooth.

The pack feels a little cooling on the face, application is very smooth and easy.  I wouldn't say the same for removing it > < .  You will have really buttery palm if you remove it with water alone.  I actually wet the cotton pad with green tea water and swipe it off my face or do the 'cotton pad method' .  It is easier that way.  Sure enough, I have really smooth skin after that.  the smooth skin is attributed to the rice bran oil which has vitamin E and squalene that keeps skin soft, supple and smooth.  I don't think you can see much of the effect on my skin.  It is more of the differences in the feeling when you touch your skin.

It is really great moisturising mask for dry skin or during winter but not so much for removing it because it is super problematic with direct application. The price is quite high at USD21.65 but it last really long since you actually use very little of it each time.

Overall, I think I will get those 30 sheet masks for USD16  or LuluLun new mask USD21 from the same website given that those is lesser of a hassle to remove the 'wash off mask'. Besides, I think many will find sheet masks less of a hassle than this wash off mask. Recommended for double masks if you don't like to use those silicon mask.


PS:warning. If you are living in Malaysia like I do, then please do not Order brands that is not in the notification list through EMS.  IF you are really lucky, you will get a warning letter like me. I am really grateful and can't thank my lucky star enough that my product arrived to me with just a warning letter.  Worse your things get stuck at the "custom" and destroyed just because some people is not holding the licence to import those product here.  Do read this problem written about another person here too  It has to comply with some healthy regulation which I don't know what.

Also added here from a reader, Nur Hanan that kindly provide me with information, try not to use EMS and opt for the cheaper registered mail(SAL) since our Malaysia kastam will open 90% EMS content, charged you if it is above RM500.  Even if it is cheap item, you will get charged or destroyed your things.  Sob, sob, sob.  Lucky you other people from other countries.
