1. How often do you use a mask?
I used to use a clay mask every alternate day or about 3 times a week. Found out that clay actually clogs my pores!
Now, I use a whitening mask 1-2 times a week.

2. Which brand of mask do you use?
Kose Sekkisei lotion mask
Ettusais acne whitening mask

Looking for other soothing/calming/moisture masks.

3. You usually left the mask on for how long?
At least 30 min but not until the paper dries...don't like waiting too long and I don't like sleeping with it on.

4. Do you prefer rinse-off, peel-off or paper mask?
Rinse-off and paper

5. Do you use eye mask? Which brand is it?
No.

6. What is your holy grail for mask and why?
Don't have yet but I use Neutrogena Oil-Absorbing mask to spot-treat big zits and on my oily t-zone. It has 5% bp and really clears up my skin. It is a clay mask though and I use only when necessary.

Btw, where can I find the Kanebo whitening mask? I tried Sasa but the SAs say they don't sell them. I am really interested in this!

1. How often do you use a mask?
3-4 times a month.

I use some of these: Shiseido deep pore mask, Loreal deep whitening mask, Sekkisei lotion mask, Dermalogica skin refining mask

3. You usually left the mask on for how long?
Depends on which one. For most whitening/hydrating, I leave on for 15-20 min.


4. Do you prefer rinse-off, peel-off or paper mask?
No preference, as long as it works.


5. Do you use eye mask? Which brand is it?
Nope.


6. What is your holy grail for mask and why?
All the above. Because they're the best I've ever tried.

[spiceychild]

1. How often do you use a mask?
When I remember to... or at least once a fortnight

2. Which brand of mask do you use?
Origins Clear Improvement
La Mer Refining Facial

3. You usually left the mask on for how long?
I usually apply them onto my face before I do something at the computer... or a solitary activity that doesn't require much facial contortion.

4. Do you prefer rinse-off, peel-off or paper mask?
Rinse-off. I used to use a peel-off from Estee Lauder's whitening series, I found that it made my pores bigger!!! :stars:
I find paper masks too much of a hassle... big drip-factor which I find messy.

5. Do you use eye mask? Which brand is it?
No.

6. What is your holy grail for mask and why?
So far...the La Mer Refining Facial. I'm starting to notice little lines when I smile forming just above my cheek apples and those disappear whenever I use the RF. My mom says my skin glows whenever I use it. I find it has the same effect on her too. Her skin looks much smoother after she uses it.

I'm still on the lookout for better masks. How is SKII??

[atypical]

1. How often do you use a mask?
When I remember also! I am very erratic with masks. Sometimes I don't do it for months, sometimes I do it up to 2x a week.

2. Which brand of mask do you use?
Medicated Sekkisei Lotion mask
La Mer Refining Facial

3. You usually left the mask on for how long?
I tend to leave it on for quite a while cos I always get too caught up with whatever I am doing at the moment.

4. Do you prefer rinse-off, peel-off or paper mask?
Peel off cos I am usually too lazy to rinse. Exception will be the La Mer cos I get to scrub after it dries up.

5. Do you use eye mask? Which brand is it?
Sometimes. I used Ayura, RMK & recently the Chanel one.

6. What is your holy grail for mask and why?
I guess it'll be the two I am using now plus the Chanel eye one. I am looking out for a hydrating one though .. thinking of getting the Lancome Hydra Zen ..

[Shon]

1. How often do you use a mask?
Hydrating Mask - Everyday
Purifying Mask - 1 to 2 x per week

2. Which brand of mask do you use?
SKII Aqua Pack
Lancome Pure Emprete
Precision Instant Purifying Mask

3. You usually left the mask on for how long?
SKII Aqua Pack- Usually use it during shower
or leave on face for 10 mins after toning
Purifyin Mask- 5 to 10 mins, 15 mins is the maximum because it will dry my face out if more than that.

4. Do you prefer rinse-off, peel-off or paper mask?
Rinse off and paper mask. Rinse-off is still more effective than paper mask especially hydrating mask and purifying mask.

5. Do you use eye mask? Which brand is it?
None, I just apply SKII Essence and Estee Lauder Advanced Night Reparir for Eye twice a day.

6. What is your holy grail for mask and why?
SKII Aqua Pack. It is the only oil-free hydrating mask that I can find it in the market. Furthermore, it can be used daily or whenever u find your face is dehydrated.

[babyflite]

1. How often do you use a mask?
I'm rather lazy. Probably once a month.

2. Which brand of mask do you use?
Darphin Intral mask
Darphin Purifying clay mask
Home made aspirin mask

3. You usually left the mask on for how long?
Till the mask dries, about 10-15mins. I leave on the Intral mask for as long as possible since it's a hydrating mask

4. Do you prefer rinse-off, peel-off or paper mask?
Rinse-off. Feels cleaner to me.

5. Do you use eye mask? Which brand is it?
My Darphin Intral mask doubles as an eye mask. I also have La Prairie Skin Caviar revitalizing eye pads but I hardly use it.

6. What is your holy grail for mask and why?
Aspirin mask. Cheap and good. Also love the intral mask during the dry winter months.
