Beauty Empties | Sheet Masks 9.0

I guess the caption space for a single post on Instagram isn't much to begin with so that's why I'm going to keep updating my empties for sheet masks here. Anyway, for this quarter; July till this month of September, I've used a total of 66 sheet masks! Yay!

First thing first, let's go to sheet masks that I've used for morning skincare routine where I would prefer to use simple hydrating sheet masks and black charcoal sheet masks to help with moisture and sebum-control.

These are some basic My Real Squeeze Masks from Innisfree. There are 3 types; water-type, serum-type and cream type and I love the water-type the most as the thin sheet complements the essences in the so well. 

I bought the whole box for all 3 Oozoo Bear Masks from the brand The Oozoo. The essence is actually in the transparent bubble and needed to be popped into the masks and spread even before putting onto facial area. Unfortunately, i don't find these as hydrating as I'd expect them to be so after finishing them all hopefully next month, I won't be repurchasing them again.

I'm so impressed with these Annie's Way Secret Garden Masks. The sheet is charcoal black and helps with sebum controlling and purifying but these moisturise my skin so well afterwards. I do love them and definitely will be repurchasing some more.

Another charcoal black masks are those 3 from My Beauty Diary. I do love their black sheets as they adhere so well onto facial area. I love the Moisturising the most! I bought all those in whole box of 5 each and there are still some that left to be used. I've tried the cooling mask also from the brand but I think I got it from a friend and it's actually not available in Malaysia.

Next are these 2-step masks from common labs. I really like these as they moisturise so well  with ample of ampoules and essences especially Vitamin E that soothe my skin as well. I'll repurchase these from Althea soon.

Senka Malaysia sent these 3 sheet masks for review on Beauty Memo by Hermo and I'm so glad for discovering the supposedly new Soothing White! Although the brightened up effect lasts temporarily, the hydrating and soothing effect is very nice on skin so I recently bought a whole box of 7 from Sasa. 

Some random Taiwanese masks that were given to me; the HerbaLine mask that I got from local spa here in Kota Kinabalu. It's nice but just average to me. As for that Hey! Pinko Girl Triple HA Seaweed Collagen Moisturising Mask however is actually feels really good on skin but the ingredients are bit low in quality with different kinds of preservatives in it. That was the first Neogence mask that I've tried and the moisturising effect is actually quite good! Still got some more before repurchasing.

Now, let's go to sheet masks that I've used for my evening skincare routine!

Thanks to a fellow K-beauty skincare enthusiast, I've discovered these sheet masks from Wonjin Effect. These are probably the best ones I've tried in years since Mediheal and Leaders. the sheet adherence is amazing and the ampoules are great for my my currently dehydrated skin. Love them and I've already repurchased their whole boxes from local sheet mask reseller, Mask.Have.

I bought these Illiyoon; hanbang (oriental) brand from South Korea through an Instagram reseller and there are several variants that I've got but so far I like the Lotus and Cameliia ones the most but I don't think I'll be repurchasing again as it's quite expensive to be sourced from Seoul directly.

Of course, you would be seeing this coming! I really do like these Mediheal sheet masks and only have few left in my sheet mask stash. These work so well with my skin as they moisturise, brighten and soothe my skin so well! I'll repurchase when there's a sale in Sasa or Watsons.

 I've received a box of the moisturising anti-wrinkle sheet masks from HelloSkin and actually quite like it! The sheet adheres greatly on skin and the essence is very moisturising although the scent for these is quite overpowering. The brand is now available on Wynora.com so definitely do check them out!

You guys know this, my most prized sheet masks from B.Liv, bio-cellulose sheet masks that comes in 3 variants. These days I'm loving the Soothe Me Now the most but I'm down with the last couple of box of it and I'm sad that the brand is discontinuing this mask line. As for the regular sheet mask on the left, I'm still trying several other variants before reviewing them so do stay tuned.

Now as for these masks from SexyLook that I've got from fellow sheet mask addicts on Instagram are great in terms of result as they hydrate well but the one in black packaging however irritated my skin so bad I thought maybe the first one I've used a faulty one then decided to put on another that's when the irritation got worst and that's when both masks got thrown into the bin.

I've always been curious about the brand Acwell but after trying the sheet masks, I found these unimpressive at all so I no longer curious. I know the toner is raved a lot even on Instagram but I guess I'm gonna pass their masks.

 It's really hard but these sheet masks from Forencos are expiring next month so I've used up both masks and finally say goodbye to Song Joongki oppa but I guess, it's hard for Song Hyekyo unnie too. >.< The masks are great but it's goodbye now. haha so dramatic!

I'm sad that my favourite masks from THE FACE SHOP are being discontinued - those from Mask.Lab line as only the lifting ones that are available in the store right now. I still have a lot more of their basic Real Nature masks and am loving most of them especially that Calendula mask. 

The above is actually bunch of masks that I've got to try once and after only first try, i decided to purchase the whole box of that Shangpree mask. It's so soothing and the sheet is amazing, I'm telling you guys. I'd be repurchasing them again for sure!

What about you guys? have you tried sheet masking? Let me now in the comment box down below. I guess that's all of it and I'll be seeing you guys on my next post!

Beauty Empties | Sheet Masks 8.0

Here we are again at another Empties post for sheet masks! I've rounded up all the sheet masks that I've used throughout the past 3 months and the total is 30. I know it's considerably low compared to previous quarters but I've been focusing a lot on finishing my opened essences, serums and ampoules and I am trying my best to use soon-to-be expired masks that I have in my stash so let's go in-depth about some masks that I've been loving.

I legit really like the sheet for this mask line from FORENCOS but unfortunately these 7 DAYS masks are only released for one batch only; you guessed it, with Song Joongki oppa faces on it. Sad!

I've gotten these Illiyoon; hanbang brand from South Korea through a local mask reseller but as much as I love them, they're not worth to sourced direct from Seoul again. Too expensive, I'd say.

I super love these thin sheet masks from Etude House and surely love to repurchase all the variants.

Oh yes, I've discovered these simple, hydrating morning sheet masks from Althea A'Bloom and also a sister brand to B.Liv; Jayeon Cosmetics. Oh, I forgot to mention that you can get these as low as RM2 a piece!

Bunch of Taiwanese sheet masks that I've tried; super love Annie's Way charcoal masks and that CY Lab mask is such a revolution as I've never tried a triple Hyaluronic Acid-containing mask so that one is a definite repurchase. I've also dipped into my Naruko sheet mask stash and used one; the rose one that gives warm sensation which is weird but I love it! 

I guess that's all of it! I'll be seeing you guys on my next post! Annyeong~

This quarter, I feel like I've used lots of more expensive sheet masks compared to previously. Of course, it's because there are more concentrated treatment masks, multi-steps masks, etc but discovering new brand like Jayeon is just nice as I love using affordable sheet masks for my morning routine. Hope to see more brands like this! 

As I've already talked about most of these sheet masks on my Instagram by #myrasheetmaskdiary, feel free to ask me about any of them by leaving comments down below. I guess that's all from me, I'll be seeing you guys on my next post! Annyeong~

Blogger Mail | Jayeon Raspberry, Aloe and Pearl Masks

I guess it's official. I'm a certified sheet mask addict that has been acknowledged by brands so they sent me bundle of sheet masks to try! Okay, just kidding! haha but I'm not kidding about the part that I'm addicted to sheet masks to the point that I've been sheet masking for almost every single day as I'm living in colder environment for weeks now. Still, let's keep calm and rehydrate our skin, drink plenty of water and just continue on shortlisting the things we're going to buy during the upcoming sale season. What?


At this point of using numbers of sheet mask, I bet you're already know that there are different types of sheet mask and currently there are about 10 types of fabric for the sheets that I've discovered and personally used. The most common ones; cotton fibres which are used in regular daily sheet masks then there are the sheets made from silk, my favourites; cupra sheet, and tencel sheet and not forgetting those bio-cellulose sheet and hydrogels. But no matter what kind of sheet being used for sheet masks, the ultimate goal would be delivering hydration and moisture as instant remedy to dehydrated skin mostly added with active ingredients for different skin concerns e.g. brightening, anti-wrinkle/ageing, soothing, etc.


Whether you're adding sheet mask to your simple skincare routine as the essence, serum or ampoules step or to boost hydration or moisture level to your skincare routine of the day, just make sure to seal everything in with hydrator or moisturiser as your last step; be it a water-based hydrators like cream and sleeping mask or oil-based moisturisers like facial oils.

Now, before we're jumping right into these minimally packaged sheet masks, let me just go through quickly about the brand; Jayeon Cosmetics.

• A brand that offers the ideal personal care from top to toe affordably. Jayeon also means nature and kind! 
• Focuses on providing the best of natural skincare products from Korea. Since July 2016, Jayeon has released Aloe Vera Gel as it's first in the Aloe Vera skin care series and manage to secure the fan favourite 300ml as one of the best sellers. Upon popular demand, Jayeon has successfully introduced an addition of two cleansers for men & women. 
• Recognizes the struggle for good and affordable skincare products. Bringing natural skin food for sensitive, dry & combination skin, the brand offers an affordable and easy way to keep your skin healthy and restore your confidence. This year, the brand aims to expand its Korean skin care line with many more surprises to come!

First, I'd like to note that these sheet masks are Made in Korea and Jayeon is the first brand that I have ever encountered with product description provided in our national language, Bahasa Melayu printed on the packaging itself; not a label sticker at the back of the sachet like we usually seen on imported Korean beauty products locally available in beauty stores and drugstores. Not only that, the brand also guaranteed that these sheet masks contain no alcohol, paraben, benzophenone, artificial colour, mineral oil, and animal oil.

Secondly, if you're already gotten this in your hands and wondering on how to read the expiring date, the format is MMDDYY. 

Now, let's go to each and every variant of sheet mask the brand offers.

However, witch hazel’s high tannin content (tannin is a potent antioxidant) can also make it sensitizing if used repeatedly on skin. The bark of the witch hazel plant has a higher tannin content than the leaves. Producing witch hazel water by steam distillation removes the tannins, but the plant’s astringent qualities are what most believe give it benefit. - Paula's Choice

USING THE SHEET MASKS

Overall, I find the packaging is super cute with the taglines on each front of the sachets are totally on point for their respective featured ingredients. The cotton sheet is actually quite thin and adheres to my facial curve well with minimal bubbles. The essence is serum-like, almost clear and smells nicely. ​

All 3 variants contain Vitamin E to supply nutrients to the skin, restores and rejuvenated dehydrated skin plus it's also an antioxidants which helps to neutralise free radicals that caused by environmental exposures such as pollution and UV radiation. Also, Aloe extracts that contribute to soothing sensation which helps giving me refreshed look every time I've used this on.

I've used all the sheet masks in my morning skincare routine; having them incorporated in brightening skin care line of products that I've been using for the past months at the serum step i.e. after toner and before moisturiser and all of them did helped in boosting the hydration level I need as I find my skin feeling dry whenever I used the whole skincare line without adding any hydrating product like hydrating first essence or toner even though I'm using hydrating sunscreen on top.

      

Out of all three, I do find myself liking the Aloe Hydrating Mask the most. All these while I've been preferring brightening sheet masks in every sheet mask line that I've tried from other brands but this moisturising variant is the winning variant for me. This particular sheet mask made my skin not only feeling nice and smooth like its other two sisters but also looking plumped and well hydrated; I feel like I can skip the brightening lotion and go ahead with my sunscreen. Of course, I didn't skip as I need all the hydration I can get from my skincare products.

On Monday this week, Jayeon Cosmetics contacted me about sending the above sheet masks to try and then bam! The package arrived on Wednesday via GDEX and that's when I found out that they actually have HQ here in Malaysia which explains the super-fast delivery to my place here in East Malaysia.

These sheet masks are available for purchase individually or in set on Hermo, 11Street and their on website (below linked) so feel free to check out their current promotions. I'd be sure to recommend buying in bulk so you can save more.
