The Face Shop Sheet Masks

Anytime from now we will have no lights/electricity again! grr! ... total blackness!... That's what happen 3 hours ago. I was writing this post when suddenly it was dark. This is due to the rotational blackout imposed by the energy department. So that would mean no internet for a few hours :( But since it's back, let me post a quick review on The Face Shop sheet masks I bought before and is overdue for a review.

Fresh Fruit Lemon, Herbal Therapy-Clarifying and Cereal Mung Bean

Fresh Fruit Lemon Mask Sheet
        Lemon containing impressive amount of vitamin C whitens dull skin and helps tighten enlarged pores. Great for oily skin

My say:
Performance: 3/5 stars
Packaging: 4/5 stars
Price: 3.5/5 stars

I bought this since this is good for oily skin. Again, I have an oily and acne-prone skin.  There were lots of mixed reaction on this. Some were happy while others were disappointed. And I'm on the disappointed team. I don't like this sheet mask. I remembered it was itchy on my face. It didn't do much on my skin :( This will never be on my shopping list for mask sheet to buy.

Herbal Therapy-Clarifying Mask Sheet in Tea Tree and Bergamot      
        Tea Tree & Bergamot are excellent for oily acne-prone skin as having strong sebum controlling.

My say:
Performance: 3.5/5 stars
Packaging: 4/5 stars
Price: 3.5/5 stars

This really caught my eyes since it has tea tree in it. I love anything that has tea tree. Tea tree does help in calming/soothing my acne-prone skin. Did this mask do anything on my face? Well no! There wasn't any soothing effect after 20 minutes of using this. But it didn't made my skin itch unlike the Lemon Mask. So it was just a plus point for no irritation.

Cereal Mung Bean Mask Sheet
        Soothing Mung Bean famous for its detoxifying quality soothes irritation and break-out of the skin while supplying protein-rich moisture. Great for oily acne-prone skin.

My say:
Performance: 4/5 stars
Packaging: 4/5 stars
Price: 3.5/5 stars

I had no idea that Mung Bean (Monggo in native language) can actually treat pimples. I just recently read this when searching for a good DIY mask for acne-prone skin. Now I understand why this mask actually works. It does help in soothing my already irritated skin. Though there wasn't much after using it but then since it help in soothing my skin I give it plus point.

Out of these three mask sheets, Mung Bean works for me. This will be on my list for mask sheet. These masks were sold at around Php90 a piece. I think with the price I'll only get Mung Bean again. Still Skin Food Herb Salad Mask Sheet tops my list :)

What's your favorite mask sheet? Share!

Take care guys :)
