I'm a Panda!

No Comments »

On my recent trip to Japan and Hong Kong, I did a massive beauty mask shopping haul. It is all the rage with some having different designs on the mask, purely for fun and aesthetics. Out of the different brands I purchased,  I bought a panda faced one made by SNP. SNP is a korean beauty company. They have tons of different masks available. This one that I bought focuses on whitening.


On the front of the package, it advertises, whitening mask to restore dull and rough skin with brightening energy delivering luminosity and softness.


When I first opened the package I could tell it was overloaded with serum. And I was right. After removing the mask from the package the package was still heavy from the serum, which I set aside. I applied the mask after cleansing and toning my face. It asked that I leave it on 15-20 minutes, however I like to leave it on longer and kept it on for 30 min. Which was about the duration of my show, Criminal Minds. After which I removed the mask and let the rest of the serum absorb. 
I found that while the serum was great and left my skin feeling more buoyant and refreshed, the serum had a sticky residue that I'm not quite fond of. I applied the rest of the serum the following day and patted it into the skin. The panda was cute but pointless and I dont think I would spend the extra money again for an animal om my face. All in all, it was a great mask. I would definitely recommend

Dead Sea Mud Spa Mask

No Comments »

I received the Dead Sea Mud Spa Mask by Montagne Jeunesse a few months back in the influenster voxbox. I have tons of face mask so I haven't had the chance to get this one. That is, until the other night. I've personally never tried a mud mask before so I was quite interested to see what it was like. This mud mask only uses Dead Sea mud, Dead Sea salt and seaweed.


I applied it to my face and let it rest for 15 - 20 minutes like the instructions suggested on the back of the packaging. I definitely wasn't very happy with the cut-out of the mask. I felt that they didn't allow for a full and even/thorough coverage of the face. However, it did stay on which was good to know. While the mask was on, my face did feel very refreshed. Which I though was good, because I've had negative reaction to some masks before.  


After the 15-20 min had passed, the instructions said to remove and massage. This I found was hard to do as the mud had dried out. Maybe it was suppose to do that? But the dried mud mask made it hard to massage. I attempted for a minute or so before I gave up and rinsed it off and then off to bed. 


The next morning, I could feel my face was super refreshed and soft to the touch. My face looked rejuvenated and refreshed. It is definitely a mask I would recommend.
