Overall thoughts about Innisfree My Real Squeeze Sheet Masks


Price: 

0,80 USD without shipping, with about 1,50 USD / 20 ml, 1 mask

Bought from: 

Roseroseshop


Thoughts:


Broccoli (promises to leave a dull skin clear and supple)

I felt like my skin was tickling a bit throughout the masking time (25 min), continued a bit after removing the mask as well. I don't know if it was the essence, or the mask material. Didn't irritate me otherwise.

The scent is not strong, barely there, but something in it made me uncomfortable.

Still some redness on my face afterwards. No effect on pores.

- Could be a bit drippy mask. Already when I opened the pouch, some liquid splashed out.


Best fit compared to Etude House Air Therapy and The Saem Natural lines. The placement and size of eye and mouth holes ok, leaves only about 2 cm space uncovered of my cheeks on both sides. A bit long on forehead. No extra folding needed, some wrinkles.

Nice thin, comfortable material, fully and evenly soaked in liquid essence. Wasn't feeling drippy at all anymore while on face.

Adheres great, very easy and fast to place on skin, easier than before mentioned Etude House and The Saem. Stays put.

My skin felt hydrated and plump afterwards. Maybe even brighter, probably just thanks to the hydration.

There was extra essence left in the pouch, again I just plopped cotton pads in to soak it up.


Recommended masking time is 10-20 minutes, this time I paid attention to clock and peeled the mask away at 25 min mark because it was starting to show the signs of drying, but wasn't dry yet. Possibly could have been on for 5 minutes more.


Buy again? 

Probably not, but I possibly could. Not a straight out no. 

Worth the money? 

I think so, Innisfree's Broccoli Mask offers a quick hydration and is easy to put on and feels comfortable enough. For this price, for a daily mask type, it definitely fulfills its purpose! I'm more confident now to test the other Innisfree My Real Squeeze masks. I can see why they are a popular choice. 


Oatmeal (promises to leave rough, dry skin moisturized and smooth)


The same slightly uncomfortable barely there fragrance as in Broccoli mask.

The mask is almost too slippery and heavy with the lotion essence, it tends to slide downwards a bit. Wouldn't recommend moving much during masking. It still doesn't slide off though and I don't think I even bothered to fix the slightly off fit.

- Could be a bit drippy but to my surprise didn't make any mess.

- Not much extra essence. Used it as a lotion the next day.


Now we are talking. Amazing, lotion like essence, very creamy.

The same good fit as the other My Real Squeeze sheet masks. Easy and fast to place on face.

Fully and evenly soaked in essence.

So fully soaked, that I had the mask on for maybe 35-40 minutes before I removed it when it started to show signs of drying in the forehead area. But it wasn't dry yet on the skin side.

My skin looked so hydrated, plumped, glowing afterwards. Also very soothed, nourished. No redness anywhere. Zero. (But my skin wasn't irritated beforehand anyway.)

I almost think the mask helped with pore size too... could be my imagination though.





Buy again? 

Already looked up some bundles and prices. I guess that's a yes.

Worth the money? 

I feel like this mask offered more than just a quick hydration, it felt all over nourishing, brightening and soothing and the effect seemed to last well over to the next day. I don't think I've liked any sheet mask I've tried before this much. But I haven't tried too many and this is the first one that has lotion essence.


Tomato (promises to leave tired skin clear and vibrant)

I don't think the mask did anything to pores, also didn't have a soothing effect. There was redness afterwards.

Made my pimples and closed comedones very visible, almost like lifting them up from hiding, but still not enough so that it would have helped to get rid of them. So for a while I just looked like I had super bad bumpy skin. Very strange. Not a mask I'd want to use before going out.

- Not very much extra essence, barely enough to wet a cotton pad once afterwards.


To my surprise, even though the mask also includes alcohol, it is very hydrating and didn't tingle or itch at all.

I may have noticed my skin being a bit brighter as well. But, I was a lot more concentrated on my acne obviously!

The same good fit as other masks from the same line. Easy and fast to place on face. Not drippy at all. Stayed well put until started to dry around my mouth at 20 minute mark.

The mask was evenly soaked in the liquid essence despite there not being much extra. Essence felt light and absorbed into skin very well.


I must say I can't remember the scent of the mask at all. So probably very mild, similar and less noticeable than the other My Real Squeeze masks so far.


Buy again? 

No.

Worth the money? 

I feel the Tomato mask was a bit underwhelming. It was ok for hydration, but that's it. It's not bad, but not really worth it either considering you can get the other Innisfree My Real Squeeze Masks for the same price as well! I do love tomatoes though which was the reason I bought it.

The Saem Natural Tea Tree Sheet Mask Review

Ingredients:


Water, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceide, Butylene Glycol, Melaleuca Alternifoli (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract, Disodium EDTA, Panthenol, Hydroxyethycellulose, PEG-20 Hydrogenerated Castor Oil, Carbomer Treithanolamine, Sodiyum Hyaluronate, Chlophenesin, Glycyrrhia Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol, Schizandra Chinensis Fruit Extract, Cotis Japonica Root Extract, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Trehalose, Fragrance.

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...


Thoughts:

After removing the mask, I didn't feel like my skin was hydrated or plump. I do understand however that a tea tree mask is more for purifying/sebum control, not for plumping the skin.

My cheeks were still red-ish afterwards, I didn't notice soothing or brightness.

The mask dried surprisingly quickly, it was already almost dry especially in the middle after 30 min

- The mask's material felt uncomfortable and heavy on face

- The lower part of the mask didn't adhere very well and kept moving and wrinkling




Strange thing is, my nose looked good afterwards, my pores looked reduced, it was smooth - but why only the nose?! Pls make this thing to my whole face!

The mask was fit wise quite good, good size and placement of eye and mouth holes, it covered my cheeks almost fully.

Quite a bit of extra essence if you like getting that.

The essence is very suitable to use as toner, as it's so light and absorbs right away, maybe controls sebum as well because it's not hydrating or sticky. I threw some cotton pads in the pouch so I can use them the next day to wipe my face. (Too lazy to bottle anything.)




* What is it with me, not feeling any sheet masks I try lately? It has been a while since I masked and now I found my stash and started again. Maybe my skin is just having a tantrum phase.

The mask felt a bit drippy, but in the end didn't make any mess.

The scent was mild, a bit sweet even, not like tea tree.

I also bought a couple of other The Saem Natural Mask Sheets, I have Potato and Charcoal as well. Haven't tried them yet.




Price: 

0.63 USD without shipping, with shipping about 1.30 USD

Bought from: 

Roseroseshop

Buy again? 

No.

Worth the money? 

Probably aimed at people with really oily skin who still want to mask without overbearing moisture bomb. Also if you have big pores, maybe with good luck it smoothes them like it did to my nose. The mask does deliver some of what it promises, sebum control, but nothing else. Anyway, all that being said, it was uncomfortable mask with little benefits for me and again I could've bought something else instead!

Ceralan Cleansing Oil Pesuöljy 200 g Review

Ingredients:

Caprylic/capric, triglyceride, aqua, isopropyl palmitate, diethylhexyl sodium, sulfosuccinate, disodium laureth, sulfosuccinate, cocamidopropyl betaine, glycerin, ceramide np, ceramide ap, ceramide eop, phytosphingosine, cholesterol, sodium lauroyl lactylate, carbomer, xanthan gum, sodium chloride, propylene,glycol, phenoxyethanol.

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...


Thoughts:

A bit boring for me because there is no scent, I actually like (floral) fragrance in my shower products and the tube is not pretty




I haven't been a big fan of super cream like washing products for my body, usually I go for a gel or foam. But Ceralan's Cleansing Oil is so soft, so creamy but not thick at all and kind of melts on the skin with a little foaming - so pleasant, so surprised! Honestly afterwards I just stared at the tube thinking "how can this feel so nice?"

For me, not drying at all and I felt very clean and comfortable afterwards

No scent for those who are sensitive

Has ceramides and cholesterol




* Now I'm going to share something that is not really mine - Ceralan Cleansing Oil / Pesuöljy. I bought for my man because he currently has an eczema flare up all over his body (he looks like a leopard almost) and at the pharmacy they recommended this cleansing oil cream. He has liked the cleansing oil, but I don't think he really cares what he uses, as long as it doesn't make the spots worse.

I rarely feel that my body is dry so can't really comment how drying or moisturizing a shower product is. Or if I do comment, take it with a grain of salt.




Price: 

About 10 € / 200 g

About 16 € / 400 g

Bought from: 

Local pharmacy

Buy again? 

I think so yes, but I would go for the bigger 400 ml pump bottle this time. 

Worth the money? 

It doesn't look luxurious at all and is hidden in the pharmacy shelves, but it does feel luxurious. I see why Ceralan is so popular. It does exactly what it promises, I think it's worth the money.

Etude House Air Therapy Camellia Sheet Mask Review

Ingredients:


Water, Glycereth-26, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Xylitol, Alcohol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Carbomer, Arginine, Hydrolyzed Jojoba Esters, Coptis Japonica Root Extract, Sucrose Palmitate, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Coptis Chinensis Root Extract, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Extract, Xanthan Gum, Ethylhexylglycerin, Adenosine, Sodium Hyaluronate, Disodium EDTA, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Camellia Japonica Seed Oil (100 ppm), Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Oil, Zingiber Officinale (Ginger) Root Oil, Pinus Palustris Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil.

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...




Thoughts:

Dries quite fast on face, it's not a long pampering session mask (recommended time to keep it on is 10-20 min). I was lost in my thoughts and had it on for 35 min, and it was already dry at that point, especially in the middle

Smells weird, almost like it has gone bad, I feel like I can smell the alcohol, I hesitated putting the mask on (expiry date 2020)

The fit of the mask was uncomfortable, it left a big part of my cheeks uncovered (about 5 cm on both sides), was too long on my forehead, I had to make several folds on cheeks, and mouth and eye holes were so tiny!

- My cheeks were still red after removing the mask, not a negative really considering my face is red usually - but after using Tosowoong masks my redness has usually reduced




After a couple of hours and next morning, my face looked brighter and comfortable, a bit strange it didn't right away after removing the mask like usually

The mask was full of essence when I took it out of the pouch, and still it wasn't dripping or messy, the essence was quite thick, like jelly

Stayed well on my face, I was able to clean the house while waiting

Didn't leave face sticky, all the essence absorbed easily

My face did feel hydrated afterwards, but not very plump

The material of the mask felt nice, it was was more thin woven fabric like compared to the ones I've used before.




* Etude House has many different Air Therapy masks and I bought a few different kinds to test, Calendula, Collagen and Camellia. I have no idea how I made my choice, maybe I wanted only C-letter masks!

Not much extra essence left in the pouch after using the mask, for me it's okay as I generally can't find much use for it other than rub it on my body. I did buy those sheet mask tablets but I don't remember where I put them.

It's actually kind of funny how the mask is called camellia mask, when there is only 100 ppm of camellia japonica seed oil. 100 ppm is only 0,01%!




Price: 

0,68 USD without shipping, with about (I ordered a bunch of masks at the same time) 1,40 USD

Bought from: 

Roseroseshop

Buy again? 

No.

Worth the money? 

I do have to say using the mask wasn't that pleasant and the end result wasn't very visible. It wasn't expensive mask, it's a daily kind of mask, so I did get one use out of it and it was ok. For some reason I expected something more nourishing. It wasn't worth the money in that sense that I could've bought something else instead!

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...




Thoughts:


Korres Wild Rose Sleeping Facial doesn't feel hydrating or moisturizing, strangely. So maybe it's meant to be more like a repairing occlusive, but...

... where I apply it, skin actually feels in a couple of minutes more dry and tight! The feeling dissipates after some hours. I always apply it on top of my serums and moisturizer, so it absolutely feels like it's sucking the moisture out of the skin.

Not a product for people with asthma or other scent sensitivities, now this fragrance is strong and lingers almost the whole night. Even my man noted "you smell".

- First time I used it, I immediately developed some red blotches on my other cheek. However can't say they were related to this cream as that didn't happen again, they weren't itchy and were gone next morning.

- Didn't notice brighter skin by morning. But I use many things with active ingredients.




The cream feels luxurious, very smooth, almost buttery, just melts on your face. Very much A+ for this!

The fragrance grew on me despite being off putting at first. So in the end I quite liked it. I guess it's trying to smell like roses (?) but I don't even know, it's strange deep floral, stuffy, chemical, musky.

Doesn't leave the typical sleeping mask stickiness or film on face. You can apply it a couple of minutes before going to bed.

Skin feels soft in the morning, but nothing unusual.




* Korres Wild Rose Sleeping facial is a bit weird product. It boasts a lot of things (evens skintone, repairs fine lines, heals, softens, moisturizes...) but doesn't really deliver. I'm not sure if it does anything. So I feel like I am somewhat stupid, have I missed something? Maybe that's why it has been discontinued with this name at least. Is Wild Rose Brightening & First Wrinkles Advanced Repair Sleeping Facial the new name? The ingredients are almost the same, except for example rose canina fruit oil has been moved up. Maybe the new formula is better!

I am going to use the sleeping facial sample to the end, as it seems like it's not making my skin worse and not breaking me out much, maybe a bit on my forehead at least. It has a lot of fungal acne triggers.

Would be interesting to try something else from Korres. I often hear the name. But maybe I should just get sample sizes if possible and stay with shower products to be safe. Also their tube designs for facial masks (Damask Rose, Goji Berry...) are very cute!

About 35 € / 40 ml

No. 

Worth the money? 

I don't think it is for me. Maybe I just don't belong in the target group. I'm not sure what the target group is though. Oily skin that is not sensitive? If I didn't know the price of the product, I would've guessed something like 10-15 € / 40 ml. But if you want brighter skin, maybe go for vitamin c products, for example The Ordinary's Ethylated Ascorbic Acid (30 ml/18 €) that I love, or maybe for pure cold pressed rose hip seed oil (The Ordinary 30 ml/9,80 €) that is both moisturizing and brightening for me, and way more effective than Korres Wild Rose Advanced Sleeping Facial.

ModelCo Instant Brows Brow Pencil Light/Medium 0,3 g Review


Ingredients:


Microcrystalline Wax, Ozokerite Wax, Isopropyl Palmitate, Castor Oil, Mica, Cetyl Alcohol, BHT, Propylparaben. MAY CONTAIN: Titanium Dioxide (CI77891), Iron Oxides (CI77491, CI77492, CI77499).

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...





Thoughts:


3 months use time after opening? That's ridiculously short. That being said, it's been open now for a year and it hasn't dried.

I think the tip of the pencil could be smaller, sharper

I didn't fall in love with this pencil? Is the color, the formula or just my laziness?




Very creamy and smooth to apply, no tugging.

Versatile shade, not too dark or light. Blends in quite well.

Sturdy enough packaging, easy to handle, doesn't feel cheap. For some reason thought the pencil was more expensive than what it actually is.




* I'm lazy when it comes to my eyebrows. I barely have energy to pluck them. And it irritates my skin a lot too. I found a mini eyebrow razor that was like 1 €, it's surprisingly easy to use. I think I'll get another (better) razor.

I think this is my second eyebrow pencil, ever. So I'm not really sure what I'm looking for in one. I have naturally a bit bushy eyebrows, but they have started to thin. They are also quite ashy compared to my natural hair, that is also ashy/light brown/golden highlights. Should I try to match my eyebrows or try to get something lighter, darker, more warm?




Price: 

Around 10-15 € / 0,3 g

Bought from: 

Got in Lookfantastic Advent Calendar

Buy again? 

No.

Worth the money? 

Honestly can't tell because I have no experience with eyebrow products. Model Co's brow pencil are not exactly expensive but for me, I think I would rather bye cheap ones (under 5 €) for practising and testing different colors and formulas. So I'm happy I got this in the calendar, but I wouldn't have bought it myself.

Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Ultimate Oil Elixir Balsam Spray 200 ml Review


Ingredients:

Aqua, Cyclomethicone, Phenyli Trimethicone, Argania Spinosal Kernel Oil, Hydrolyzed Keratin, Cocodimonium Hydroxypropyl Hydrolyzed Keratin, Panthenol, Dimethiconol, Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone, Lactic Acid, Polyquaternium-16, Parfum, Cetrimoniuml Chloride, Sodium Benzoate, Hexyl Cinnamal, Linalool, Limonene, Phenoxyethanol, Potassium Sorbate, CI 15985, CI 47005.

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...




Thoughts:

As an overall product Schwarzkopf's Gliss Hair Spray works well on all fronts so I don't have complaints, really. It's not a heavy treatment, not even a proper oil treatment - but it's almost exactly what it promises to be. It doesn't repair hair in any way however, it just helped me to be able to comb and manage it.




I think the best point of Gliss Hair Sprays was the quality for the price! 200 ml for 2,5 €, yes please!

Not heavy, excellent for getting some shine and being able to comb dry distressed hair

I was able to use it every day and it didn't flatten my hair, or make it oily

Didn't make a mess or color walls, floors... but it did make floor slippery after a while where I sprayed




* Actually I thought this balsam hair spray had already been discontinued because the stores near me stopped carrying it for a while. Or that's what I think because I searched for it several times and couldn't find it, then bought some other pink colored (?) Gliss Spray but didn't like it that much. Then I decided to cut my hair and be done with all the extra care anyway. Still I think only some stores carry this spray.

I haven't used extra balsam sprays for two years, maybe? At the time I had butt length bleached hair and I had to figure out ways to be able to comb it but not make it too heavy.

Can't remember the scent anymore, but it did have some. Actually it could've been quite strong?




Price: 

2,50 € / 200 ml

Bought from: 

Supermarkets

Buy again? 

I did buy several bottles. Now, probably not (at least in near future). Now I think I'm going to find some salt spray for texture because my hair is only neck length.

Worth the money? 

Definitely! I went through one bottle in about 3 months I think and I did go through several Gliss Hair Sprays during that time of long hair (before and after bleaching). It wasn't perfect but something made me come back to it even though I tried other hair sprays as well.
