My Thoughts

First, I must admit that I've been spoiled by the amazing quality of Beauty Clinic masks which truly do feel silky and fit my face like a dream. Therefore, this mask material and shape just can't compare. However, this mask pack is also of high quality. There's actually a small portion of essence at the bottom of the mask that you apply first, before placing the sheet mask onto your face. I found the amount of both essence and serum to be nearly perfect for my face and used the leftover on my neck and a quick swipe along my arms and legs.

I didn't experience any bad reactions such as tingling, stinging, redness, etc. When I removed the mask, my face just looked very nice and healthy. My skin tone was evened out with no signs of redness, and my skin felt soft, smooth, and firm. I was very happy that my skin didn't feel sticky as it's been extremely hot here lately (100 degrees!), which has made my skin more combination type and oily and caused me to be hesitant to use face masks, especially since mine are usually aimed at providing deep moisture. Luckily, my face felt perfectly balanced after using this mask.

Would I repurchase?

Yes. I think is is a great essential mask for anyone who wants healthy-looking skin. Its benefits can be enjoyed by most skin types, including sensitive. I can overlook the non-perfect fit of the mask due to the visible improvement it gave my skin. Also, the current sale price is a real steal!

I have more Skin Factory masks to review once I put them to good use in the near future! =)
