my husband bought me this mask set per my request since he was leaving me for a few days with two toddlers and a newborn baby at home. although i have helpers, but still i have to deal with them myself at night. so, this mask is a reward for me. although he's grumpy about the price, but he still bought it for me anyway..
this is the description from their website: cutting-edge plant biotechnology isolates and replicates the perfect rose stem cells for truly astonishing results. with state-of-the-art, 21st century breakthrough technology, five rose plant stem cells - rose commiphora, desert rose, damas rose, pale rose, and white rose - are blended with four rose extracts - rose damascena, rosa canina, rose hip seed and rose water - in a cooling gel to help invigorate and improve the look of skin vitality. helps to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, dehydration, dullness and sagging as it strengthens and tones the look of skin. skin is left looking silky soft, radiant, beautiful and youthful.
the packaging: it comes in tiny tube, the rose one is pink. and it's a see-through so you can see the remaining mask that you have inside the tube. there's description at the back of each tube. and it's really tiny, about 5 ml.
the scent: i have to say this definitely smells like rose. although i can't be sure which one i like better, TBS rose mask or this one.
the product: the mask texture is gel, jelly-like. it's more viscous than the cucumber one. it's easy to spread on my face, but remember to apply it thick since it might get dried if you didn't put a lot on your face. actually, this mask can be used as wash off mask and sleeping pack. if you use as wash off mask, put it as thick as possible and wait for 10-15 minutes before washing it off. while as a sleeping pack, use it as thin as possible all over your face and leave it overnight. i only try it as wash off mask. as wash off mask, it's okay in terms it's easy to spread on and wash it off. and during the waiting time, i can feel it's slightly dried a bit. and it's sticky. so if you wash it off using your bare hands, it might take a while. it's easier using washcloth. i think it will be sticky when use as sleeping pack and i'm worried it might stick to my pillowcase, so i skip it. since i mostly use this on my whole face, this tiny tube only last 4 times uses tops.
the result: it does give moisture to my skin. but the effect is temporary and not instantly. i have to use it couple times to realize it. the soothing effect is unnoticeable for me. as for making it radiant, i have to say i finally can see it after a couple uses. in the next morning i can see that my skin is more radiant than before, slightly glowy.
overall, it's a nice moisturizing mask, slightly brightening too. it does what it's promised for but for that price, i was hoping that it will give more instant result. i find it similar to my TBS rose mask, and TBS one is cheaper. and scent-wise, i like my TBS rose scent better. so overall, i like it, but not as much as my TBS one. actually this mask is one of their bestsellers, so i'm disappointed that i don't feel the hype, considering this one is quite expensive.
