Packaging: Not MBD's cutest, so just kinda meh. Not that the packaging reeeaaalllly matters in masks beyond making sure the mask's hygienic and well-soaked. So... sufficient?
Scent: Smells kind of similar to the Red Vine mask, but less grapey and weaker. I actually kind of like it. Anyway, I assume that the smell is due in part to the fact that they both contain alcohol-derived yeast extracts! That's the 'key ingredient' in that one product by SK-II, the Facial Treatment Essence . Missha also has a copy-cat product of that toner/essence/whatever if you're interested. Check those out here. I've heard mixed reviews. Anyway, on with this one.
Fit: As with all MBD masks, they are not made with my features in mind. The masks are just too long and wide for my face, and I have to tear the eye holes near my nose to get it to actually cover my nose. However, because the material is so thin, you can make little tears here and there to customize it a bit more. Still annoying. See here for more pictures and a better explanation.

Results: Ahh, it's so nice!!! The serum is similar to the Red Vine mask in that it's more watery, but not as weirdly soapy. It's very calming and nice to have on, really. Because the serum is more watery, it does drip a bit. This is irritating, but not the end of the world.
The mask did live up to its claims, though. It was very moisturizing and soothing, and my skin was so soft and glow-y afterwards! The serum isn't sticky and sinks in reasonably fast, so... it's just a really great mask. I'm actually thinking of ordering a box of them once I'm finished with my current (massive) mask stash.
It might be a bit too moisturizing for those with oily skin, but I'm not sure. :c

Conclusion: Final Score 4.5/5
Pros:
Pros:
- very effective
- leaves skin smooth, soft, moisturized, and glowing
- smells kind of nice
- probably my favorite mask yet
- watery serum that can drip
I know this review isn't super long, but that's because there isn't much to say. I love this mask, and would encourage everyone to consider it!
Thanks for the review! I have tried MBD masks before and I love everything except the fit! I totally agree with you on how MBD masks are ill-fitting.
ReplyDeleteits so irritating haha. but i think it's okay given how thin they are and the price :D i'm planning on doing a sheet mask comparison post in the next month, cause i've tried out a few other brands!
DeleteThank you for the review! ♥

ReplyDeleteI recently found a store where I can buy them, I might get this one! It sounds very nice~
Thanks for your awesome review!♥
So how does the firming effect compare with red vine? I like the red vine too because it's got that effect and also my skin was so normalized after (for lack of a better description) and this one sounds comparable.
