REVIEW: Etude House Red Ginseng Mask

Hello!
Time flies so fast. It's already December and next thing we know, it's already January 2014. I've been looking back at my posts this year and I've noticed that I did not post a lot of reviews. :( 



This year was a stressful but blessed year for me (in terms of my career). I've been promoted but along with that promotion comes a handful of stress. Jeez!

I promise to write more reviews next year ^^

*******************************************

I just tried one facial mask from ETUDE HOUSE and I wanna share my experience with. 

PRODUCT NAME: Etude House RED GINSENG MASK
Price: I am so sorry I forgot :( 
Contents: (1) One sheet per pack




Product Description:
Etude House Red Ginseng Mask uses 6-year-old red ginseng to help restore skin strength after being damaged by stress, pollution, debris and weather. If you have experienced harsh weather or environment or would like to relax after a long day of work, this mask will be sure to cure you from your troubles. Also helps maintain firmness and smoothness.

Directions (According to the packaging)
1. Prepared skin with toner after cleansing. 
2. Open the package and apply the facial mask onto your face, avoiding the skin area surrounding the eyes and lips. Make sure you get the mask properly adhere to skin. 
3. Leave it for 15-20 minutes then take it off. 
4. Let the left over essence absorb into the skin with gentle patting. 


For those who are conscious about the ingredients, here are the things that make up this mask: 
Water, Glycerin, Panax ginseng Root Extract, butylene Glycol, Cyclopentasiloxane, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Alcohol, Cyclohexasiloxane, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Dimethiconol, Acrylates/ C10-30Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, triethanolamine, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance, Squalane, sophora Flavescens Root Extract, Lonicera Japonica (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Prunus Persica (Peach) Leaf Extract, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract, Scutellaria Baicalensis root Extract



There's something written in Korean characters but I do not have any idea what it means.  :(
The directions I guess?




SCENT: It has a very herb-y, ginseng-y scent. Yeah. I felt like I picked some herbs from a garden, mixed them all up and placed them on my face. NOTE: The scent is not too strong, though. 


Here's what I love about Korean Masks, THEY FIT PERFECTLY ON MY FACE. I think the fact that these masks were made from Korea and they were meant to fit Asian face 'sizes'. I dunno but I really to not have problems with the fitting of these masks. 


I look like a serial killer from a movie. 


I'll give a very quick review for this. 
(Note: I used this before going to bed.)

*Did my skin feel soft, smooth, supple and moisturized after using? YES!

*Did my skin feel soft, smooth, supple and moisturized the next morning? YES!

*Was my skin still soft, smooth, supple and moisturized 24 hours after using the product? Hmmmm, not really 24 hours but I could still feel the effect of the mask the next day. Make up was easier to apply and I did not apply moisturizer the next day. 

*Did Etude House Red Ginseng Mask give you break-outs/acne/zits? NO! That's why I love this! 

*Will you buy this again? Yes, I WILL! I still have a lot of masks to try (and I am still in love with VANEDO Beauty Masks) but this mask will be definitely be on my list. ^^
