How are you, blog?
I hope you are doing OK coz my skin is not =(
Etude House was having their sales like forever ago (seems like forever, or was it really forever? hmmm) and being me, a cheapskate (self-proclaim and not too good at it) will just walk into the trap. Hahaha, no lah. When I was in KL some time in 2011, I went to Etude House at The Mines (which is in Selangor larr) and bought a 5 - packet Sheet Mask for RM12. I managed to finish it all by mid of 2012 because am a lazybum like that.
Earlier this year, I bought another set coz I'm a beauty queen like that (more like a drama queen pfft). And because they finally have 2 outlets in Kuching (yay!!).
Today am gonna blog about this Red Ginseng Mask Sheet. I dunno what it does to the skin, but whatev! Actually it restores skin strength after being damage by stress (hambek kau nyah!!), pollution, debris and weather (as stated by the packet. I'm typing word for word). Then, it claims to maintain firmness and smoothness (again, as the print says lar).
Shewww, this is the Mask Sheet. Taken straight out from the refrigerator. Yes, I love keeping them tucked away at the corner of a fridge in a container and then left them there forever til I'm hungry looking for food suddenly find food for my skin de.
Taken with camera phone. Hands are shaky hence the quality of the photo.
Water, Glycerin, Panax, Ginseng Root Extract, Butylene Gycol Cyclopentasiloxane, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruti) Fruit Extract, Alcohol, Cyclohexasiloxane, Disodium Edta, Fragrance, Squalane, Sophora, Flavescenes Root Extract, Lonicera, Japonica (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract, Camella Sinesis Leaf Extract, Prunus Persica (Peach) Leaf Extract, Ginko Biloba Leaf Extract, Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract
THE TEXTURE
I super love the texture. It's watery and absorbs very fast on the face after you remove the sheet. The downside, it's a bit runny =(
THE SHEET'S SIZE
I don't know if this is a plus point BUT it's definitely a BIG TURN OFF for me because the sheet is very "loose" and the liquid "sometimes" enter my eyes. As you can see from the photo, it's very close to my eyes even I have adjusted it. Since it's not sticky, so I just bear with it for 20 minutes (max).
OTHER USAGE & BENEFITS
After 20 minutes of leaving it to make wonders on my face, the sheet is still damp with all the liquids, so I wrap it on my feet for 15 minutes (both feet). My feet feels fresh in the morning. A definite plus point!!
THE RESULT / EFFECT
Since it's a sheet mask, I don't expect it to make my face "glowing" or "fresh" for 30 days. The effect is very minimal but I'm happy looking at how "clean" and "fresh" my face looks when I wakes up. No regret on buying this (if it's on SALE).
THE PRICE
Being a cheapskate, RM15 for 5 packets is definitely a good bargain. There are other "flavors" in the mix, so it gives you a chance to try and see which mask suit your skin. So far, every "flavors" works well for me. I'm a happy buyer :)
THOUGHTS
Repurchase? I will not give it a second thought if it's on SALE. Meaning, I will buy it right away if the price is "within my budget".
NOTE : The review is solely based on my skin's reaction and how I feel while using the product. Result may varies. Have fun "pampering" your skin. =)
