I think it beats SK2 Whitening masks anytime too, considering it's not half as expensive.

ok ok I am SOLD Will be getting this.......Tinkling, thanks for being so sweet...I will get the whole pack...

If Tinkling has one to spare, it's a good idea to sample it first.
Which one will you buy. Meow?

I also like Fancl White sheet masks but some will tell you the cheap Kanebo ones are as good.

I'm always facinated with the 'paste-like' kinda masks. The paste that u apply on the face and can peal off afterwards? Any of that kind?

[Glossie]

Some clay masks are done like that, Goddess. But these days, they're formulated to be rinsed off. I try not to use masks with any kind of clay anymore since I'm dry. I do know a coupla masks that are peel-offs. St Ives Hydroxy acids mask and EA Refining mask. They're clear and dry down to a film; then peel off after about 20 mins.

Meow, if you've not already bought these, Bugis is selling 2 trial masks in a set. Didn't check the price. Should not cost more than $8 per piece.

Hi Karen,
This mask's packaging is yellow in color...different from the one I raved about...
This is purely for whitening..

The other one is a medicated whitening mask, lightens acne scars as well as even skin tone...

Oh ya, i think it is not part of any promotion..seen that for some time already!

It will not whiten furthur I believe if you are already very very fair, Although I believe it will even out your skin tone, & for your concern of glow, this kose seikisei lotion clarifies the skin & moisturises it, for added radiance best coupled with the emulsion or any light moisturiser.

Gosh just when I thought that Kose's lotion was a better & cheaper alternative to SKII whitening masks. Looks like another contender.

VitC, the Ettusais whitening masks I like may not brighten as well as the Kose ones. Afterall, Kose Sekkisei has an *older* proven track record than Ettusais. Of cos, no harm trying out the Acne Medicated one since it sounds really effective. Report back here if you do get to it.

I just tried the Medicated Acne Whitening Mask. Since I only used it once, the whitening effect is almost non-existent. It did dry out my zits though and my skin sort of peeled. I have some dry patches from recovering zits ( I know I shouldn't but I sqeezed them and irritated the heck out of my skin :roll: ) and the skin peeled. The day after I used the mask was the worst. But my skin looked very clean and exfoliated after. I have a pack of the Whitening one and will try it next week.
