These Pure Smile masks are brilliant and very affordable to boot. These were given to me by Ashley but they can be purchased at iMomoko for $1.50 each.
Red Wine Essence Mask contains Vitamin E, collagen, Hyaluronic acid and arbutin. The serum had a slightly artificial grape scent but it dissipated after a little bit.
Green Tea Essence Mask did not have any discernible scent other than general lotion aroma. Instead of arbutin, this one contained ceramide 3.
Pros:
- Excellent mask fit and softness
- Ample serum amount
-Soothing liquid gel-like texture to the serum
- Leaves skin feeling cool and hydrated
- Serum absorbed into the skin readily, leaving no stickiness
-Affordable
Cons:
- Scent can be mildly off putting
- Minimal noticeable improvement of fine lines or problem spots
I would certainly buy this brand of masks again. I have used the following essences in the Pure Smile line: Cherry Blossom, Moonstone, Horse Oil, Bee Venom, Cobra Venom, and Pearl. The Pure Smile lip masks rock too. I will post about those later. How do you feel about this price point? Too cheap or just right or still too spendy? I can't get over how much some sheet masks cost at Sephora, so this price point pretty much rocks for me. $2 or less is my happy place, though I will spend a little more if I am interested in one.
I'm going to be in for a rude surprise when my go to masks start costing me more than about 50¢ per. The most expensive masks I've bought were the Pokémon ones at about $1 per while they were on sale. There are sales often so I can stock up when they're about 20¢ per when they normally go for around $2.
ReplyDeleteI can see below $2 being a good price point. I guess it depends on how often one plans to use a face mask. I aim for every other day and $2 would only put me out about $15 a month.
Wow!!!! 20 and 50 cents?! I am in awe. I agree. I was thinking $2 per month too. I try to wear a mask fairy often too. It kind of ticks me off how freaking expensive masks are at Sephora. You can't hardly touch one for less than $6 or $8. And to know how nice and affordable the Korean and Japanese ones are makes it a tough pill to swallow. If you are ever up for me to send you money for a mask shopping spree let me know :-)
