PACKAGING
I remember getting the sheet masks in a box and the sheet masks came in simple packet with product description and the ingredients list printed in English at the back side of the packet for your reference. Back when the brand first available in Malaysia, there was the Distributor sticker at the lower part of the sachet but now that information is being printed right on the sachet.
There’s supposedly expiry date embossed at the bottom part of the sheet in the format of EXP YYYYMMDD (Year-Month-Day) so make sure to take note of that because some sheet masks have shorter shelf life as most Korean brands have 24 to 30 months.
APPLICATION
The sheet mask does not come with a plastic separator but it is still easy to unfold the sheet and apply onto the skin. The sheet was kind of thin and adhered well onto the skin.
The serums contained were clear, with subtle scents to them but I’m thankful they’re not too overpowering nor linger throughout the minutes I’ve had them on my face.
I’ve noticed that after taking the sheet off, my skin was well-hydrated with my pores appearances seemed minimised and felt so smooth to touch.
THOUGHTS
While I can’t really differentiate the effect of one variant to another, I’d say all of the sheet masks works nicely into my simple morning skincare routine and I love how my skin stayed hydrated all day long. With my skin being a little bit dehydrated, I’d prefer the soothing and hydrating ones better.
Do note that that if your skin cannot tolerate Witch Hazel then you might want to avoid these sheet masks as all of them contain that ingredient although I think the mild astringent effect does well for my pores.
I usually use simple cleanser followed with gentle exfoliating toner, hydrating toner then applied the sheet mask and finish off with gel moisturiser to seal my morning skincare routine prior my sunscreen of the day.
