i have tried almost all lululun masks, i only have two left from this plus line, the lavender and lemongrass. if you're interested in lululun masks, you could read them in my blog. this plus line is thicker and meant to be used weekly instead of their regular masks that supposed to be used daily. in the plus line, there are two groups, the aroma care (which is clearly has fragrance in it) and the non aromatic one. the last two are from the aromatic, and this time i'm trying their lavender mask.
this is the description from their US website: dreamlike healing - blend of lavender essential oils from france. lavender is known to be the most versatile of aromatic oils. its soothing floral aroma is an excellent source of stress relief. lavender extract firms up the skin, and effectively permeates dry skin to restore optimal nourishment.
french lavender essential oil formulation - lavender is known as the most versatile aroma oil. a floral fragrance revitalizes your mood. in addition, lavender flower extract permeates moisture deep into the skin for a supple and healthy appearance.
marjoram, symbolizing happiness. marjoram meaning "joy of the mountains" in greek. known as an herb that symbolizes happiness, it was used in ancient greek-roman weddings as the bride and groom decorated the corolla with marjoram. extracts from leaves of marjoram give moisture to the skin for a smooth and supple appearance.
blueberry rich in anthocyanin. blueberry is a rich source of anthocyanin, which is present not only in the fruit but also in the leaves. anthocyanin gives the skin a superior boost of moisture and gloss.
the packaging: it comes in regular rectangular sachet which is color coordinated according to the type of the mask. for lavender, it comes in light tosca green sachet with the picture of lavender at front. at the back there's description as well as ingredients list. the description is written in japanese as usual, but the ingredients list is in english.
the scent: i supposed it smells like lavender, but it's totally different from my lavender essential oil, so i can't say which one is more natural. the scent is quite strong when it's freshly opened, but it dissipates once you put the mask on your face. so if you have sensitive skin or nose, you might want to try or even avoid it at once.
the product: the mask is thick but still soft cotton, it's similar to other mask in this line, but thicker compared to regular lululun mask. it's drenched in clear runny essence. there's a bit left in the pouch. the fit is okay for me. it has long nose flap which i appreciate since most mask won't reach the tip of my nose. it has decent forehead length and cover my temples and jaw area but i have to tuck a bit on my temples area. it has weird inner eye slit but luckily it doesn't poke my eyes. it doesn't have any other slit, but it's adjustable just okay.
the result: i put it on for about 20 minutes and it's still damp when i take it off. it's definitely moisturizing but i don't see anything else. it does leave tacky feeling and it layers well under my usual skincare routine.
if you like lavender scented mask, then you should try it. as for me, i think i like the non aromatic one better. i think it will suit any skin types, but if you have sensitive skin, since it's obviously has added fragrance, you should think twice before getting it. but even if you decided to get it, it's really affordable so it won't break your wallet. now i believe lululun is easier to get in japan and online, but here in indonesia you can't really get it with decent price. most preorder shop sells these masks double in price, so i won't suggest you to preorder here. at this point, i will tell you which one i would get if i could find them in japan again. for me personally, i will repurchase sunny days and probably homeo age, and probably nothing from the aroma care. i know i still have one more, but considering i don't like lemongrass, i don't see myself repurchasing that one. if i have to pick one from aroma care, i would pick the yuzu one because it smells okay, not floral and not weird at all. what about you? have you tried this line? and which one is your favorite?
