THEFACESHOP Egg white peel-off mask review

Hello all!!!

Today’s article is a review of a face mask from the company called THEFACESHOP, the Purifying Egg White Mask. 

 

 As always, when it comes to Asian products, I purchased this from yesstyle.com around the same time I bought the Lovely Me:ex - Magic Pink Powder Mask (read review here: http://thefriendzyzone.blogspot.gr/2013/02/lovely-meex-magic-pink-powder-mask.html) 

Egg white masks are great for the summer because they absorb the extra oil from the face and prevent breakouts caused from that and a mask containing egg whites is also good for evening out the skin tone, helping to get rid of the red areas that seem to become more persistent around the summer months. 

Product description:

This is a peel-off mask. There’s a 120ml worth or product and a little goes a long way. You evenly distribute the product all over the face – or just the areas you want to treat such as blackhead prone areas – and after 15-20 minutes, rinse with lukewarm water. The direction say that you can use a toner on a cotton pad to remove any remainder.

Here’s what the product looks like before it dries on the skin: 

Product performance:

This is (without a doubt) one of the best peel-off masks I’ve used. I tend to avoid peel-offs because they can be damaging to sensitive skin but this one delivers every time. It’s very gentle – so, no irritation – and soothing, and as you take it off you can feel it removing all the dead skin cells, dirt and sebum off your face. It’s for frequent use (although no more than twice a week) and the results do last. After using it for a while, I’ve noticed the area around my nose and mouth that tends to be red is less irritated and the rest of my face looks rejuvenated as well.

It won’t remove deep set black heads and the like but it’s great for everything else J However, I have come to believe that for sensitive or mixed skin types, using it twice a week like instructions say might be a bit too much. Since it removes a lot of the oil from the face, the areas that are already dry might get irritated (for mixed skin) and sensitive skin might also get irritated. None the less, if you adjust the frequency of use for this mask to your needs, it will still work pretty well.
