innisfree capsule recipe pack pomegranate bubble (sleeping pack)

i bought this capsule recipe pack when i went to singapore years ago.. but i didn't get the chance to use it up until now.. well, i'm on sample-finishing streak.. so this one quite hidden in my stash so i decided to dig it and use it. oh, and since i'm 30 now, i think i need to be more aggressive in anti-aging treatment, so don't be surprised if there're a lot of anti-aging/firming products review here.

this is the description from innisfreeworld.com: a pomegranate sleeping pack with oxygen bubbles to enhance the firmness of the skin. pomegranate helps retain elasticity of the skin. oxygen bubbles help absorb active ingredients. the enriched pack adheres to the skin to provide solution for skin concerns. bubble-foam sleeping pack.

when i bought this, i didn't know that this one is sleeping pack. i thought all the capsule recipe pack is a wash off mask.. but oh well, since i've already bought it i have to use it.

the packaging: just like the rest from the capsule recipe pack, it's packaged in a small tub with a cover that be slipped to a slit on the side for multiple usage. but i don't think the slit is useful. if you're not fitting it properly, the mask will dry out.

the smell: well, skinfood pome line has pome fragrant, and this one too. but i can't remember which one is better. all i can say that i can smell this one pretty well so it means the smell is very fragrant. so if you're sensitive to fragrant, you might want to skip this one.

the product: it's a pinkish creamy cream, a little bit sticky after applying it. okay.. this is the part when i admit of being stupid. i read the back and read the "bubble" part, and i'm hoping that it will bubble just like the bubble mask, but it doesn't. so i read for other reviews, and i found out that i have to spread an appropriate amount of the pack and then when it looks white (just like when i applied my sunscreen heavily), i have to press it with my palms to make it absorbed. the other blogger mentioned that she heard the popping sound when she pressed it, and that's the microbubbles sound popping.

the result: fyi, usually firming/anti-aging labelled product always pretty hydrating. sooo... this one too. it's quite hydrating. i can even feel a layer of moisture on top of my skin when i wash my face the next morning. but as for the firming effect, i can't say for sure. i've been using this every other day for almost two weeks now, usually on my acid day since acid can be drying. and i don't notice any difference. yet. it doesn't break me out luckily...

so, i don't think this one is suitable for oily skin since this one is pretty sticky (hydrating i mean..). after using this, my t-zone starts to become oily after a while. faster than when i'm not using this. and i don't like the sticky feeling when i touch my face at night. and that means no repurchasing for this one. if you're sensitive to fragrant, pass this. if you don't like sticky product, skip this. but if you love pome, and have dry skin or aging skin, try this one. after all, this one is quite economic, a pack for more than 7 usage for a cheap price. so choose for yourself.
