First Impression Review | Saizen-Daiso BB Face Mask with Hyaluronic Acid

It's me again! This time I'll be reviewing this face mask from Daiso (or Saizen here in PH). I am sure most of you (if not all) know what Daiso is. But just in case you don't know what it is, well it's a variety store that sells mostly cute, quirky and reasonably-priced stuff if not totally cheap! Here, most items are priced from Php85.00 - Php88.00. If you want to know more about Daiso just click here.

Each pack has two individually-packed face mask sheets for Php88.00 

Now, onto my experience and thoughts about this product.

This is a typical moisture-filled mask as stated on it's packaging. When I took it out of it's pack, it wasn't dripping so I guess it's a good thing. LOL. 

On the back, you will see some instructions on how to use it (English instructions are provided).

I've let this sit on my face for 15 minutes max. It says 5-15 minutes but I really felt like extending it up to 30 mins! LOL. DON'T DO THAT of course, because if you do this the mask will reabsorb the moisture from your skin. Reverse osmosis, right? 

Anyway, here's my goofy face with the sheet mask on. 

Please DON'T laugh! :p 

Okay, as you can see from the above pic, this mask is a bit big for my face.

I also find that the pack still has some essence after taking out the mask itself, so I just use the remaining essence for my neck, hands, etc. 

To be honest, I don't usually use face mask regularly. It's not that popular in my area and also these types of masks are not easy to find. Of course you can buy these online.

Now, for my overall rating: 4/5

Let me explain why. 

It's very moisturizing but it kind of felt like I'm putting some kind of light slime or mucous on my skin. Does this makes sense? Hehe, I guess that's because of the Hyaluronic acid in it, right? It doesn't really feel that sticky but if you're not used to that feeling, you will not enjoy this.

The next day, or following morning ('cos I use masks before bedtime), I felt that my skin is well moisturized or smooth to touch but still has that slight stickiness so I definitely have to wash my face after getting up.

Do you recommend this?

Yes, I recommend this to those who have normal to dry skin, but of course (and as always) do a skin test first before trying this out.

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Review | Saizen Charcoal Face Mask/ Charcoal Natural Pack (Daiso Japan)

Hi!

Finally I'm back to blogging!

My first review post of the year is this charcoal mask.

For reference, my skin type is normal-dry.

This was bought by E from Saizen Robinson's Place Tacloban for only Php88.00.

What does it claim to do? Obviously it promises to remove skin issues like black and white heads.

Results for me....

This is actually the first time that I used a charcoal face mask. I think this product DOES remove whiteheads and even blackheads. But I did notice that my face becomes a bit red when I peel off the mask. My mom actually complained that it stings on her face so she doesn't like it. For me it's not that painful. I suppose it's because of the very small hair on the face "peach fuzz" can also be removed when you use this product. (A tip for sensitive skin people is that they should remove this type of mask from top to bottom. If you have a normal-dry skin type it's okay to remove it bottom-up.  Honestly, I don't exactly know why. I've just read that somewhere. Hehehe.)

Overall rating: 3/5 

Why? Well, it does work but I think I don't like the consistency of the product. I do like the fact that it does not have a scent, or whatsoever. But I did not like that it makes me a look a little red after using it. Aside from that, it does not dry within 10-15 minutes as it's stated on the bottle. It took me 20 minutes sometimes longer than that if I put on a thick layer! Overall, I still think this is a good product. For 88 pesos it delivers what it claims naman. :-)

Will you repurchase and recommend this product?
Hmmm I don't know if I'll be able to repurchase this anytime soon. I'm no longer staying in Tacloban City. In my current place, there's no Saizen/Daiso around so probably not at the moment. For those who DO NOT HAVE a sensitive skin and has a huge problem with whiteheads and/or blackheads, I recommend you try this out.

(BTW, I still have a lot of product left in the tube even though this was purchased over a year ago. I think I only used this for about 5 times or so. Hehe, so yeah. I only use this if I have really stubborn spots on my face, and I have to wear makeup on the following day.)

This is NOT a sponsored post.
This product is from my BF's sister, E.

Thanks for reading! :-)
