innisfree it's real squeeze mask green tea

korean are pretty addict to their mask ritual, and mask sheet is a must for them. though i've bought some etude mask sheets, but i haven't got the time to try them yet.. and now i have some innisfree mask sheets too.. since it's an anniversary gift from innisfree singapore. yep, i was having a short getaway earlier this month and decided to drop by at their shop in bugis junction and let myself bought the bb cushion.. hahaha.. and since i've spent more than sgd 25, if i applied member, i'll get the gift, so why not? the gift was a mask kit, total 5 masks in it. superrr!!

innisfree it's real squeeze mask has 20 variants if i'm not mistaken... this is the product description from innisfreeworld.com: soothing and moisturizing with extracted green tea. jeju green complex - green tea, tangerine, white lotus, camelia, orchid. 3 layered sheet for long time moisturizing with great adherence.
i believe the mask has new appearance.. which makes them looks like food blogger's picture.. hahaha.. the main ingredients is captured in a wooden spoon, with white background. i like the new design though.. it's clean and somehow refreshing.
if you're curious about the 3 layered sheet meaning
from en.koreadepart.com: the ingredients are green tea extract, orange peel extract, orchid extract, camellia leaf extract, fruit extract of baeknyeoncho.
jeju green complex penetrate deep into skin providing moisture for bright and clear skin. triple layer sheet provide long lasting moisture and keep essence moist for long hours giving quick skin absorption. how to use: after face wash, use toner. take out the mask, apply onto face gently, remove after 10-20 minutes, tap lightly excess amount of essence for absorption.

actually, i don't know what to expect from a mask sheet, since a one-time usage might not give the best result, but as i read madaboutmyskin's blog, she described some aspects to expect from a mask sheet, which are effectiveness, adherence, and absorption. well, that gives me the idea..

the packaging: the design is clean and refreshing, with the ingredients picture in front of the package and english text, it's easier to help you to choose which mask you want.
the product: i think the size of the mask is okay. it's a bit bigger for me, but it's okay.. the eyes holes, the nose hole, and the mouth hole are in the right place. and the mask sheet is very wet with the ingredient.. though it wasn't dripping all over the place when i put it out. but it's still very wet.. before applying it, i even doubt that it will dry after 15-20 minutes, and i was right.. it was still wet after 15 minutes, and since the mask kept dropping a bit for that 15 minutes, i decided to take it off without waiting for the mask to be completely dry. oh, and it felt cool on my face, just like applying wet tissue.. but a little bit different. i was worried that it might cause allergic reaction, since i felt hot after the cool feeling when i took the mask off. but luckily nothing happened. 
the smell: i can smell refreshing green tea fragrant.. but very subtle. however, i can still smell alcohol, and that makes me think the sheet is like a big wet tissue that i have to put on my face. 
the result: well, i do tap the excess of the essence on my face, and it felt a little bit sticky.. but not for long. i feel my skin very moisturized, that's why i only apply my eye cream and night serum afterwards and skip the cream.. since i don't want to be super duper oily in the morning. the green tea is a moisturizing mask, so i guess for combination/oily skin, it's up to you whether or not to put the night cream afterwards. the miracle didn't happen that night, i just feel my skin moisturized, but the day after... i feel my skin is supple.. and moist, but not greasy. i love it, i can't stop myself from touching it. and somehow it makes me looks radiant. though i slept late the night before..

overall, this is a good start in my mask sheet world, but i won't purchase this one again. innisfree has 20 different ingredients to try.. so why stop now? probably i'll look for something else.. but for you who has dry skin or on long travel by plane, i think this mask is perfect for hydrating your skin.
