yes.. this month i'll be reviewing a lot of stuff.. some because i just bought it and can't resist to try it, but some in order to get rid of my samples mountain so i can buy again something new.. hahaha.. anyway, it's the end of the year, so why keep piling on that good stuff? plus i'm in my last trimester.. might as well pamper myself before i can't do it anymore after the baby's arrived. okay, one of the stuff that kept hidden in my closet is this mask sheet. i had it probably for almost 6 months and haven't got the chance to try it.. and after trying innisfree mask sheet, i feel the urge the finish all my mask sheet.. so i decided to open my etude mask sheet.
actually, etude house i need you alphabet mask sheet is quite famous.. they have cute and attractive designs and lots of choice make it harder to choose which alphabet to choose. are you going to pick the alphabet of your name or by it's use? well, at first i ordered V and Q, but the seller sent me A and V instead.. oh well, never mind.. i thought if i tried it and liked it, i will order the other mask sheet. but i kept procrastinating and now the alphabet mask has changed i assume. below is the picture of the original alphabet mask series.

the description from their malay website: 26 types (i think it's 27 since there's a heart mask after Z) of facial masks that treat all your skincare concerns with an array of ingredients by alphabet A-Z. mix and match these mask sheets to take care of your skin concerns, such as, dryness, lacking of elasticity, dullness. face and environment friendly sheet. sheets made of alphacon, corn fiber and natural pulp cover your skin perfectly and discompose naturally when buried for the environment. deep moisture. natural hydrating ingredients for sensitive and dry skin.
but lately, i've noticed that some sellers stop posting the alphabet mask and start selling this type of mask..and on their website, it's written it's their i need you mask (2014). below is the picture of the new line mask.

| i need you mask (2014) |
the new line only consists of 20 masks.. i haven't got the chance to figure out which ingredients got kicked out. but i think most of the masks still have the same ingredients as the previous line.
okay.. back to the alphabet mask.. i tried the V one first. if you're wondering about all the 26 alphabets + 1 heart, here's the list of the ingredients.
A = aloe = soothing
B = bulgarian rose = whitening
C = collagen = firming
D = dandelion = revitalizing
E = elder flower = soothing & moisturizing
F = fir = purifying
G = green tea = moisture & relief
H = hyaluronic acid = richly moisturizing
I = imortelle = energizing & nourishing
J = job's tears = revitalizing & smoothing
K = korean ginseng = revitalizing & nourishing
L = lemon = tone clarifying
M = mango = nourishing & firming
N = noni = revitalizing
O = olive = deep moisture
P = pomegranate = smooth elasticity
Q = q10 = tightening & firming
R = royal jelly = smooth hydration
S = shea butter = richly nourishing
T = tea tree = trouble care
U = unpolished rice = firming & nourishing
V = vitamin complex = radiating skin
W = white pearl = bright complexion
X = xylitol forrest = clean moisture
Y = yogurt strawberry = soft & moist
Z = zucchini = nourishing & moisturizing
Heart = antioxidant
as you can see, most of the masks are meant for moisturizing and nourishing.. and the V that i tried is for radiating. vitamin complex extract from fruits provides natural radiance (that's what it said on the malay website).
the packaging: the design is cute and colorful. each alphabet has different design according to its ingredients. the vitamin one has capsules picture all over the package.
the product: the size is similar with innisfree's, but i think it's a bit smaller than innisfree. and it's also very wet with the ingredients, but this one dries up after 15-20 minutes.. it felt cool when first applied on my face, just like wet tissue, but since the serum dries up at the end of usage, i don't feel hot when i took it off, unlike innisfree's.
the smell: all i can say it smells like wet tissue.. there's a hint of alcohol scent that every wet tissue has.
the result: since most of the essence has been absorbed.. i only massaged it for a little bit, i do feel my skin moisturized like innisfree's, but not that richly moisturized. probably since it isn't for moisturizing like green tea... and the day after, i don't notice the suppleness like green tea, and no radiating effect.. i don't see any brightening effect, but since i slept very late almost everyday now, the mask helps in that matter. i don't look like a person that lacks of sleep.
overall, this is a fun mask, the design is cute and makes you want to collect them all. and it has huge variants to choose from.. and i have to say it works quite well too.. and the most important one, it's not that expensive. oh well, i can't say about the whole line, but hopefully i can try the new line soon...
