kao meg rhythm steam eye mask in chamomile

if you read my other post, you'd find out that i'm trying to finish my stash, especially these eye mask. i've tried one in yuzu and i like the experience, so i decided to try other scent to find out which one is my favorite before buying a box of my favorite scent. i bought a box of mix scented eye mask, and it has 4 scents. i've tried yuzu and now i'm trying chamomile.

this is the description from their singapore website: developed with japan's unique and innovative steam heat technology, meg rhythm steam eye mask is a self-warming steam eye mask which produces comfortable steam heat. the abundance of comfortable 40°C steam heat produced gently envelopes your eyes to relieve and relax strained eyes and eases away tensions to soothe your stressful moods.
relieve eye strain and work stress! long working hours and a heavy workload can leave you with strained eyes and feeling stressed out. indulge in a well-deserved relaxation after a hard day's of work!
3 comfort features of meg rhythm steam eye mask: abundance of warm steam, warms up quickly, comfortable feeling lasts 2x longer.

the packaging: since i bought the mix box one, it comes in a big black box with the the same design as the individual scented ones, but this time there's a big text that probably said that there are 4 scents in a box (the text is in japanese). there's also the picture of all 4 scents in tiny boxes. at the sides you can see some pictorial description about the usage suggestion and a bunch of other description in japanese. inside you can find individual packaging, 5 from each scents, so there will be total 20 sachets. for chamomile, you can see a banner with picture of chamomile at the top of the sachet. the other part is totally the same for all 4.
the chamomile packaging
the scent: since chamomile is a common ingredient in tea, no wonder it smells like tea, chamomile tea. so it's very relaxing, compared to yuzu that's more refreshing.

the product: after ripping off the sachet, you can find a soft cotton eye mask. you need to rip the perforated line at the back so you can separate the ear holes. i don't know what it is made of, but the material for the earloop is really soft. the mask itself has purple quilt pattern at front and from the back you can see the circular heating pad. the mask starts to heat up immediately after you open it and it will reach its highest temperature in about 5 minutes. it will stay hot for about 20 minute-ish (it's hard to remember the time when you have to close your eyes and do nothing for the whole time). then it will start cooling down. the ear loop is quite loose so sometimes i feel i can feel the heat better if i push the nose part down. again, it's dead on similar to the yuzu one.
the eye mask inside is the same as the other one
the result: it's definitely soothing for aching eyes, but i don't see any noticeable effect. at that time i don't have swollen eyes or anything, so it's just something that you can feel, not noticeable. but the heat combines with the relaxing chamomile scent is very relaxing, really suitable to end your tiring day.

i have to say that i like the sensation that these eye masks give. the heat to soothe the eyes and added fragrance to give maximal relaxation effect seems work well to end a hard day. if i have to say, i like the chamomile better than the yuzu. it's more subtle than the yuzu one. but it's also a bit weird since i always thinking that i have a cup of tea in front of my nose because of the chamomile scent. if you face screen all day and you feel that your eyes are tired, this is a good way to soothe your eyes and do a relaxation for a bit. the price is quite affordable as well. two down, two more to go. do you have any favorite? let me know in the comment below.
