    sunkisstiffy: hee.. i have all the masks that i mentioned earlier on.. just did green tea + barley mask (wo de xin ji mei ren). face is fairer and my pimples are less swollen. i'm having out breaks now don't know it's caused by estee ANR, or chanel hydrating toner (gel like). stopped using those 2 and waiting for my face recover now..

    i only used SK-II mask twice a month. haha.. i bought them from HK @ approx. S$12 per pc. so, not that bad as compared to buying in SG (around S$19 per pc). the effect is good! i love it!!! but too ex to use it once a week.

    for my beauty diary mask, i tried the nano platinum, pearl, and rose. i find that the effect is so-so only. i can see better results in wo de xin ji mei ren mask (esp milk, cavier extract, grape seed, and green tea + barley) :wow:

    i still have a lot of masks trying to restrict myself from buying any more before i used finish the ones that i have. think i have about 35pcs of different masks now

    my top few favourites (effective on me) are: SK-II, wo de xin ji mei ren: milk, cavier extract, and grape seed masks

    Watsons Fruit Masks

    Aloe Vera

    Super nice smell! but effects are so-so only. It is supposed to have whitening and moisturizing effects, i didnt see much whitening effect after i pull out the mask, but for $1, it does a pretty ok job Will buy again if i need some small kick! Slightly sticky feeling but should be able to tahan if you can take it.

    Cucumber

    Smells very refreshing when I just took it out, I generally like cucumber products' smell Well this is pretty good! It is supposed to have firming and moisturizing properties. When I took off the mask, I could see my pores abit more refined! Great! And my skin did look tighter, will stock up if I can find it!! Slightly sticky feeling but should be able to tahan if you can take it.

    Lavender


    Didnt smell as good as the cucumber and aloe vera ones (i think im abit bias here... oh no, lol! cos when i heard the $1 masks promotion, the first 2 flavours i thought of grabbing are cucumber and aloe vera ones!)

    Properties: Soothing and moisturizing. Yes it did feel soothing, smelling it made me felt quite sleepy! I feel this one is more sticky than cucumber and aloe vera, i had to wash off the serum cos my face cannot take sticky serums. My pimples looked abit more calm after using, other than that, not much effect.

    i got same comments as you for the lavender.
    Sleep inducing. At first still smell ok. After smelling it for 10+ mins, it gets a little unbearable. >.<

    Zicon Wastons' Fruity Masks!

    Lycopene mask
    As quoted from the pack: Antioxidant + Moisturising
    I say: out of all the 6 masks, i dislike this the most. when masking, it didnt sting but my skin itches after about 10 mins. break me out the next morning.
    Overall: never going to buy anymore.


    Lavender mask
    As quoted from the pack: Soothing + Moisturising
    I say: the smell is heaven! very calming & i always feel refreshed after masking. helps with my breakouts, very moisturising also. i dont wash the essence off as the smell is great! i want it to linger.. i love this alot!
    Overall: i have 15 pieces of this in my room now, need i say more?


    Cucumber mask
    As quoted from the pack: Friming + Moisturising
    I say: the smell is.. fresh? i dont know how to describe it, but it is a light smell which i think most people would be able to take it. have to wash off the essence after mask as my skin itches after sometime. one minus point - contains witch hazel.
    Overall: might buy only if it is $1 or 20%, but still got to consider about the witch hazel part.


    Aloe mask
    As quoted from the pack: Whitening + Moisturising
    I say: love this for its whitening! it hydrates very well (better than the lavender mask.) & whitening my skintone. it is a keeper!
    Overall: buy it buy it buy it!


    Chamomile mask
    As quoted from the pack: Brightening + Moisturising
    I say: moisturising. emmmm, does not help with my pimple, sadly.
    Overall: find it ok, will buy only if it is $1 or 20%.


    Rose mask
    As quoted from the pack: Revitalising + Moisturising
    I say: like the lavender mask, it smell great. prefect for an perk-me-up masking session. hydrates the skin, gentle too! i dont like to wash it off after masking as i like the smell to linger..
    Overall: love it as much as the lavender mask.


    I hope i dont bored you babes out!

    vivavoomz, witch hazel is great as an astringent and heals skin irritation but too much of it causes irritation like alcohol does. it is also harsh for skin. some people do break out from it. (like me, sometimes.)

    so i try to avoid witch hazel.

    Skin type: Mild sensitive, combination skin ( t-zone oily & dry cheeks)

    Dermal Face Masks:
    I bought the masks on my korea trip and it was super super cheap hence I grabbed 200 pieces back for my gfs. For the amount I paid, it works nicely as a hydrating mask, most of the masks are good for hydration. My gfs reviewed that it is really cheap and works great for its price. If you have other concerns about the skins, have to look specific into each different mask (e.g. the pearl mask helps to brighten the skin a little). If you are getting the mask locally, for the price you pay, you can actually try other brands of mask which works better with a little higher price.

    Fancl Clear White Mask: I love this mask, the size and shape of the mask caters for our asian face and it covers the face nicely as compared to other brands of mask. It really helps to brighten the skin and I love the supple feeling of my skin after using the mask.

    Laneige Water Sleeping Pack plus: This is a must have for me when I am overseas or when i need a hydration boost. For the tub you pay for, it can last really love, just alittle is enough for the whole face. I know some people hate the fact that it gets all messy and all over the hair and pillow when sleeping as it is an overnight mask. I like the after effect of my skin the next morning hence I thought about to utilise it without having all the mess. I tried massaging the mask all over my face, my skin slowly 'drinks' up the mask and I go to bed with a supple face.

    Kose black mask: Peeling this off is like a torture to me sometimes, but when I need to get rid of my horrible black heads, I will bear the pain. For the price you pay, you can get much cheaper alternatives such as Daiso Charcoal Mask.

    Watsons Green Tea Mask: This mask gives a refreshing feeling and it helps calm down my occasional pimples.

    The Face Shop Sheet Mask: Most of the masks are just great, works well for the price and true to its individual's purpose, the effect is visible.

    Sorry for the lengthy post, will review other masks another time

    reviews on SASA crystal white (brightening radiance)~
    the mask essence does not drip, and the mask type is similar
    to that of olay's but softer.
    after removing the mask, it's a little sticky. brightens up the skin.
    BUT i think that OLAY whitening mask is still better :D

    The Face Shop Vita B sheet mask:
    Sticky but not very much for my case, i do not see any effect after that like hydration or brightening.

    My Beauty Diary Red Wine Mask:
    You could see your face brighten up and feels hydrated. Compare to TFS's vita B masks, MBD mask works better and some more cheaper. And best part is, after the mask, whole day even until the next day, my face not so easy to come out oil and feel refreshing.

    TFS Sheet Masks:

    Lavender and Neroli:
    Pros: Good for pimply days. Reduces swelling and redness almost overnight. Soothes sensitive skin, great for inflamed, irritated skin. Smells lovely, very sleep-inducing. My HG!
    Cons: Sticky after use if not properly massaged.

    Rose and Pine:
    Pros: Good for hydration, helps with soothing sensitive skin. Not helpful on pimples, but still good overall.
    Cons: Sticky after use.

    Tea Tree and Bergamot:
    Pros: Good for basic hydration.
    Cons: Sticky after use, no other benefits.

    Cereal Rice/MungBean:
    Pros: Said to be good for pimples and for brightening. I find it so-so, good for basic hydration, more worth it to spend on Lavender and Neroli instead.
    Cons: No other obvious benefits. Mungbean causes me to itch around the jaw.

    Dioscorease Rhizoma & Japanese Cornel :
    Pros: Great for hydration, leaves skin smooth and supple after use. 100% cotton sheets are used. Excellent because they fit nicely on face.
    Cons: Sticky after use.

    Tawny Mulberry Mushroom & Sika Deer Antlers:
    Pros: Another HG! Helpful with soothing irritated skin, soothes pimples overnight and smells wonderful (herbal though)! 100% cotton sheets, adheres to face very well. Sheets are soft and comfortable.
    Cons: Sticky after use, but VERY WORTH IT!





    p.s Will repurchase and recommend those marked with !

    Watsons Inhouse-brand Masks

    Birdnest Masks
    Pros: Good list of ingredients minus the Witch Hazel which may irritate some people. Comes with rich essence. Excellent for hydration. Leaves skin supple and soft in the mornings.
    Cons: May be sticky initially. Will repurchase if it goes on promotion

    Green Tea Masks
    Pros: Helps with soothing of pimples. Essence is rich and thick but not as sticky as Birdnest masks. Leaves skin soft and supple as well.
    Cons: Not much. Will definitely repurchase irregardless of price.

    Aloe Masks
    Pros: Smells good, excellent mask for hydration. As usual, Watsons masks are thick and rich with essence. At $1 (promotional price), this is a great purchase. These inhouse masks are made in Korea
    Cons: May be sticky after use. Will repurchase at promotional price.

    Lavender masks
    Pros:Smells great. Good for hydration. Essence is rich and thick.
    Cons:Gave me tiny poppable zits the first time I used it. Will monitor the next few times.

    Chamomile masks:
    Pros:Helped brighten skin in the morning! Leaves skin soft and silky, skin is noticeably clearer the next day. No breakouts so far. Smells lovely too.My favorite out of the fruity range.
    Cons:May be sticky after use.

    Neutrogena Deep Hydrating Masks
    Pros: Excellent list of ingredients! Contains mulberry extract, Vit C (if I remember correctly) and a few others which helps in whitening and deep moisturisation.
    I always wake up to smooth clear flawless skin. Another HG!
    Cons: No help with zits, not good for pimply days.

    Olay Deep Whitening Masks
    Pros: Provides very basic hydration. But it is VERY VERY GOOD for whitening! Works better with a whitening essence eg HABA WL
    Cons:Ill-fitting mask sheets. Or maybe my face is too big/long for the mask to sit comfortably.
