i've mentioned in my previous post that i decided to do double masking, and i did a clay mask with my face shop clay mask mousse and the missha firming clay, and then i felt my skin was too tight. and then i remembered i have this innisfree honey mask to use on dry day, just like yesterday. so i decided to continue the pampering session with a mask sheet. and since i don't experience "dry day" often, i think it's a good chance to use my mask sheet.
this is the description from their website: moisturize your skin with the manuka honey it's real squeeze mask. manuka honey from new zealand's manuka flower has abundant nutrients for healthier skin. the jeju green complex consists of green tea, tangerine, cactus, camellia leaves, and orchids to keep your skin healthy. this triple layer sheet has a long-lasting moisturizing effect so that the essence can gradually be absorbed into the skin.
the packaging: the sachet itself is pretty boring, white with a picture of the main ingredient in front. this time it's a beehive with honey spreading from it. it makes it easier to grab which one you want to use.
the smell: i do hope this one has a honey smell, probably something sweet, but i'm disappointed. i can only smell like wet tissue (perhaps it's the alcohol) and a little bit something else, but not honey.
the product: the mask sheet is thicker than etude's, and i like it. and i prefer the cutting to compared to etude's but this time, somehow the cheek part is not fitted at one side. or it's probably just me, or my position at that time since i was lying down and looking to one side to watch my ipad. the essence is generous but not dripping wet (i hate if the essence's dripping to my neck).
the result: it's moisturizing enough, but not as moisturizing as i thought it will be. after all, it's honey which is a famous ingredients for hydration and also anti inflammation. i thought it will be like using a sleeping pack or a night cream, but it's just so-so. and plus it stings a little on my eyes. when i used this, i watched my ipad, so both my eyes were open, and it stings. although i've been experienced the similar experience with the etude one, but this one stayed longer than stinging from etude.
so, definitely won't buy it again if i can find something else more moisturizing for a keepsake in the future "dry" day. and if you're a honey lover, i think u'd better skip it, it's nowhere near honey-honey. but if you like cheap mask sheet that helps a little with hydration and have no problem with alcohol, then buy it.
