REVIEW ON L'HERBOFLORE ROSE WATER REFINING HYDROMASK

When you want to feel like a royalty, try out L'HERBOFLORE masks.  Their beautiful packaging will makes you feel pampered like one.

L'herboflore rose water refining hydromask is one of their best seller and my first impression is their fancy artful sheet masks. XD

Lucky there is no witch hazel in it because my face doesn't like rose blended in with witch hazel.  I am fine using the ingredients on its own but not together.

It has watery essence which smell absolutely like rose.  There is slight sheen of oil which doesn't feel heavy and if you love the smell of rose, you will enjoy this mask for sure.

This mask has a really good fit on my face because there are 5 slits that I can use it to do adjustment on my face.  The mask has a good adherence and doesn't slip off my face.  The sheet mask is thin but holds well to the essence so that it doesn't rip onto my neck.  It doesn't irritate my face or clogged my pores but still do check the ingredients for potential allergy because you might have different triggers than mine.

Overall, my face does look hydrated, moisturise, calmer and brighter.  I do enjoy and bath in the smell of roses throughout the process.

The sheet mask has the cut of a butterfly which is beautiful XD. It has clear essence which smells really mild.  I can hardly smell it which is nice  The sheet mask is thin and adhere well to eyes area.  I left it on my eyes for about 15 minutes. L'herboflore Black Cherry + Tranexamic Acid Whitening Eye Mask doesn't irritate my eyes are but you still need to check the ingredients.

The essence absorb into my skin with not stickiness, does hydrate my eyes' area and lightly brighten it up.  Too bad, nothing could be done about my genetic eye bags and I guess I need more than just eye mask.  Overall, I think it is decent sheet mask for your butterfly area since it is cute and the butterfly mask is quite big for the whole lower face.

My forehead has this irritation which I have no idea where I got.  I guess using this sheet mask can show how it works on my face.

There is a lot of essence inside the sheet mask which is enough for another application or all over your neck and your body XD.  The clear essence has a light floral scent which is nice.  Since it is made from fermented coconut which easily torn, there is two protective layer-one white pearl plastic and the second blue mesh paper.

The fit is actually great.  It doesn't look like that on photo because my chin doesn't typical fit any sheet mask XD and that is why I cut it with a pair of scissors.  The bio cellulose sheet adheres to my face like second skin and doesn't budge even if I sit upright.  It does feel like a thin piece of dry jelly when I touch the mask but my skin is keep moist inside XD .  After 45minutes, the sheet mask will reduce the thickness and it becomes like a piece of dried up plastic so don't leave it on the face for too long.

My face feels cool throughout the 45minutes of having the mask on face.  I find the process really relaxing since the weather is so warm even when it is at night.  The sheet mask cools down the irritation of my face since it contains Aloe vera, ceramide and Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract.

The sheet mask does help with acne and also the irritation that I have. It doesn't worsen it but helps to reduce the redness.

Overall a great mask to have after procedures or for emergency first aid for the skin.  I think it does work great on my combination acne prone skin =) .
However do still check the ingredients that you are allergic to be safe.

REVIEW ON MINON AMINO MOIST MASK

Many celebrities attest their flawless skin to using sheet masks everyday.  While we do not have such fat wallet to be sheet masking daily, using sheet masks few times in a week does make us feel pampered and destress.

A hydrated and calm face is surely a good base for makeup.

Today, I am reviewing a popular gel sheet mask from Japan.  I also see this in the Cosme japan rank as one of the best sheet mask for dry sensitive skin.  Minon Amino Moist Mask.  Minon is also really famous for products for sensitive skin since they do not have fragrance in them.

MINON AMINO MOIST MASK
MINON AMINO MOIST MASK


Minon Amino Moist mask is made from the cotton mask which is thin, mesh-like, hug the skin and doesn't budge once you place it on the skin.  The mask fit is suitable even for those with bigger face than I do so I think that is great.  It doesn't fall off my face even when I sit upright .  It has a transparent jelly-gel essence instead the usual watery essence making this a sheet- mask-in-gel-essence.  There are enough gel essence in the sheet mask.

I wore it for about 30minutes and the moisture do last on my face and it better than traditional paper sheet mask.  It is recommended that you apply your toner, essence and serum for it to get absorb into the skin with the help of this mask.  It does feel cooling, comfortable and no irritation my skin.  The gel mask is like a sleeping mask and makes my skin hydrated until the next morning.

There is no added fragrance and I really can't smell anything from the mask.  I can understand why dry&sensitive skin will like it because it does hydrate, cool and reduce the redness on the skin after the usage.  It is also a great mask for those doesn't fancy hydrogel but wanting something with gel.

This mask is sure something luxurious and meant for special occasion because I will surely be broke if I use it daily. XP

I'M FROM honey mask was 2015 hot sensational product in Korea.  It was 'Honey' trend last year and many companies came out with honey products but this I'M From Honey Mask was the best seller last year along with the Honey potato chips that many love.

I'M From Honey mask sure smell exactly like the real raw honey and it is hard each time to only put it on my face but not my mouth.  It behaves like honey which is sticky, creamy and feels smooth when I apply it on my skin.  The honey smell lasted the entire 1 hour of it being on my face.  Do understand the 'mental torture' I get from being a food lover?  Also, please it keep it away from your family members that love food because they might think it is honey in a fancy jar and start spreading it on the bread!

It does moisturise my skin, feel smooth and brighten the skin.  Some people might not like a layer of film left on the skin which I use a cotton pad wet my toner to remove them.

I use I'M from Honey mask after I do clay mask to reap benefits of cleansing and moisturising the skin.  I use it once a week since I do not have dry skin so using everyday will be too much.  The moisturising effect last longer than using a sheet mask and it is more economical since you only need a little.  As for my stubborn acne and redness, not much is done about it actually and I do need to use it a few times in conjunction with other products to see more effect to it.

I don't think this product alone is able to get rid of acne.  It is great if your skin likes all those ingredients, good for moisturising dry acne skin type, during winter.
The I'M FROM contains honey, shea butter, bee venom, snails and a lot of plant oils and moisturising ingredients so if you are clogged prone do check out the ingredients first.

WHAT ARE OIL CLEANSER, ACTIVES,TONER, BOOSTER, LOTION, EMULSION, CREAM, ESSENCE, SERUM, AMPOULE, FINISHER, HYDROGEL, SKIN BALANCER, SKIN OR PEELING GEL?


This is a pictorial guide of my top post about skincare products(serum, essence, toner).  Since that post is already too crowded with information, I guess I am doing this on a separate post. After all, some pictorial guide is fun right?  You can still visit the old post because I have written for products in length compare to this one.

However, if you like colourful ones here it is =) .





WHAT ARE OIL CLEANSER, ACTIVES,TONER, BOOSTER, LOTION, EMULSION, CREAM, ESSENCE, SERUM, AMPOULE, FINISHER, HYDROGEL, SKIN BALANCER, SKIN OR PEELING GEL?


So, here is all the information on the skincare that is currently in the market.  Those in the bubbles are in the same categories. Actives is actually under special treatment since some of them comes under serum.

PS: I am sorry that I forgot to include sunscreen/sunblock inside it T_T  . Please add in Sunscreen which some called it 'sun cream'.

WHAT ARE OIL CLEANSER, ACTIVES,TONER, BOOSTER, LOTION, EMULSION, CREAM, ESSENCE, SERUM, AMPOULE, FINISHER, HYDROGEL, SKIN BALANCER, SKIN OR PEELING GEL?
toner

Okay, many people get confuse all over the weird terms when it is actually toner.  They all have the same texture which is watery.  If you are not sure if it is lotion moisturiser or lotion toner, check out the texture.

Toner with alcohol is usually clarifying so do not use it to do mask sheet!
Toner without alcohol can be use for sheet mask and it is called hydrating toner.


WHAT ARE OIL CLEANSER, ACTIVES,TONER, BOOSTER, LOTION, EMULSION, CREAM, ESSENCE, SERUM, AMPOULE, FINISHER, HYDROGEL, SKIN BALANCER, SKIN OR PEELING GEL?
essence&ampoule


Essence, ampoule &serum are in the same special treatment categories but each of them has different texture and concentration.  They target special issues.

Ampoules usually come in vial&used in bridal makeup since they provide the fastest result.  

Order of concentration
Most concentrate-ampoule
2nd best concentration- serum
3rd best concentration-essence

There are essence which is like water-people called it treatment essence which has fermented products.
other essence are cream or oil based.

WHAT ARE OIL CLEANSER, ACTIVES,TONER, BOOSTER, LOTION, EMULSION, CREAM, ESSENCE, SERUM, AMPOULE, FINISHER, HYDROGEL, SKIN BALANCER, SKIN OR PEELING GEL?
serum



Serum also has cream, water or even oil based.


There are some ampoules, serum and essence that are different from what you see here because the brands use different name for 'marketing strategies'. People will be more inclined to buy something when it is written ampoule than when it is essence.  Of course people will think that it is a great deal to spend little to get 'ampoule' but what you get is actually 'essence'.

WHAT ARE OIL CLEANSER, ACTIVES,TONER, BOOSTER, LOTION, EMULSION, CREAM, ESSENCE, SERUM, AMPOULE, FINISHER, HYDROGEL, SKIN BALANCER, SKIN OR PEELING GEL?
Moisturiser
There are many moisturisers out there and I am glad that I no longer have to suffer only on those thick cream mess.

Gel moisturiser usually contains silicone.
Emulsion is a light moisturiser and usually comes in a bottle.It is suitable for oily skin type.
Lotion is similar to emulsion.
Cream is usually for dry skin type and usually comes in a jar.
Snail cream is actually gel cream so it doesn't really comes under cream categories.




So does it make things easier to understand? So look into the categories before hauling everything and realise that it is actually under the same categories.  I hope that this is helpful. =)

REVIEW ON JAPAN GAL VC+NANO C MASK

When you need to do sheet mask daily but looking for affordable sheet masks to not break you account.  Sheet masks is not cheap here but I like using them for the cooling especially in this warm and dry weather.
So warm, that my skin itch and becomes irritated.  Japan Gal VC+Nano C mask offers 30 pieces of mask for daily sheet mask.

I actually went to the local drugstore shop and saw that the there is only a box of this Japan Gal VC+Nano C mask left so I guess it must be cheap for it to leave one box.  It turns out this is daily sheet masks and the price is affordable given that is 30 pieces.  Inside the box is actually a zip lock bag containing all the 30 pieces of masks.  Use a cleaned tweezers or some other tool to take the mask than your hands to avoid contamination.


The cotton masks is decent.  It is not particular soft but it is okay.  The fit is vertically longer that horizontal wider.  I wish that it is wider.  It doesn't fit my face and I have to cut the mask sheet each time.  The mask doesn't cling to the face but doesn't fall of my face which is okay.  The essence is not bad and it doesn't have any fragrance to it.  Not drippy as the mask dries up within 15 minutes so do not use it more than 15 minute else it will stick hard on you face.  It does help to calm my face, doesn't irritate and hydrate my skin.  Overall, it is a decent mask for daily usage.  You will need to use the mask daily to see brightening effect.  Although it is not particular amazing, I will buy it again for being affordable, the decent effect that it gives and also it doesn't irritate my skin. =)

I didn't include the photo of before and after but if you need it let me know.  It is okay and so I don't see much effect other than better hydration and slight brightening.
