Mask House Revitalizing Korean Herbal Hydro-Gel Eye Mask





Contents: 6 pairs of eye masks
Price: HK$99.00
Local of Purchase: Mannings

I had this ages ago, but I've really hated the smell (Ginseng and chinese herbs), so it was left unused, until recently, where I've noticed that it was going to expire soon, so I had to finish it.
 
This is a gel patch that left my under eye area really dry, I really have no idea why I would need a eye mask that will dry out my under eye area????, and in order to make this work, I had to put a thick layer of eye essence under my eyes before using this mask. This way it felt much better, but I think that's because the serum is working and not the mask.
 
I definetly won't repurchase and I don't recommend this product to anyone.

TCM Eliminates Eye Lines, Wrinkles and Puffiness Eye Mask




Contents: 10 pairs
Price: HK$45.00
Local of Purchase: Sasa

According to Sasa's webpage:

TCM Mask Eliminates Eye Lines, Wrinkles and Puffiness Eye Mask contains cubilose, aloe, gensing, angelica sinensis, ganoderma lucidum. This eye mask could directly affect your eye areas and boost up your eye areas with natural collagen, so that you can release the issue of black circle eye and eye bag.

how to use it
Apply on your eyes area for 20minutes and take it off. Apply the remaining essence around the eye areas.

ingredients
cubilose, aloe, gensing, angelica sinensis, ganoderma lucidum, etc
 
My Opinion:
 
I though this was a bargain when I got it, but after using this for 5 consecutive days, I didn't see any improvements at all, even with the worst eye masks that I've tried before, it'll at least leave my under eye area hydrated for a few hours, but with this particular mask, my eyes weren't even hydrated immediately after use, and to make matters worst, this has a strong chinese medicine scent which I've hated.

My Opinion:
 
OMG this stuffs rocks, for only HK$30 I could use it everyday and it won't break my bank account. I've been using the snail one and it really hydrates my under eye area without causing any irritation or millia.
 
Although the hydrating effect would only last for about a day, I've been using this daily and already went back for more.
 
At my local Mannings the Dr. Morita's eye masks comes in 3 different kinds:
  • Snail Essence Eye Mask for repair
  • Syn-ake Essence Eye Mask (snake) for lift up
  • Intensive Moisture eye Mask for moisturization
I've got all of those and would be reviewing them later, but so far I've been loving the snail essence and will definetly repurchase.

    It may be used every day.

    ingredients
    EGF, Collagen, Tranexamic Acid, Platinum, Vitamin K, Arnica, Camomile, Mulberry Extract, Elastin, and Q10

    My Opinion:
    I'm a huge fan of paper mask, and it always feel great to pamper yourself. Although most of the paper mask that I've tried didn't really do much to my skin apart from hydrating, I'm still happy to use them (as long as they are reasonably priced). After using this eye mask I've noticed that my under eye area seems to be better hydrated, but the effect has only lasted for about a day. A pair of these were less than HKD5.00, so definetly worth it.

    My Opinion:

    I love the shape of this eye mask, it covers the whole eye area, but i did not find it very moisturizing, but that might be because I've got super dry under eye area.

      容量: 一盒5對
      價錢: HKD110.00

      根據O'slee網頁






      我的意見:

      我幾喜歡這個眼膜的型狀,能覆蓋到整個眼部,可惜保濕功效只屬一般,但亦可能因為小妹的雙眼真的太乾....

      如果想加強保濕功效,可以先搽一滴透明質酸後才敷眼膜。

      O' slee Dark Circle Reducing Sleeping Mask

      Contents: 30ml
      Price:HK$98





      According to O'slee webpage:




      Reduce Dark Eye Circle + Reduce Fine Lines



      • Reduce Dark Eye Circle : Aerobicompound stimulates the blood circulation and neutralizes toxics of skin around eye areas, thus improving the dark eye circle problem.


      • Reduce Fine Lines: Provides intensive care and moisture for the skin. Dry and fine lines resulting from the dry skin problem can be reduced.

      Application:
      Use 2-3 times per week. Apply a thin layer to the skin around the eye area after cleansing at night. Smooth and massage from the inner to the outer corner of the eye area. Rinse with warm water in the morning.


      My opinion:

      I've read numerous bad reviews about this product, but I've still insisted in getting it, mainly because this is an eye mask that you can use while you're sleeping (I know I'm lazy....)

      The sales lady told me to start by using it consecutively for a week, afterwards, to use it 2-3 times per week.

      I did as I was told and I was very satisfied with the result, I guess that is because i've never expected this product to remove my circles or fine lines. I was only hoping that this would provide some hydration for my undereye area, and it did.

      Does anyone knows any other sleeping eye masks? please let me know, would like to try it.

      Eye Mask - Decleor Hydra Floral

      Decleor Flower Petals Eye and Lip Moisturizing Mask
      HKD$390 for 30ml


      This is how much you need for one eye.


      How to use:

      Once or twice a week, apply a generous layer around cleansed eyes and lips. Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes.
      Remove excess with cotton pad soaked in eye make-up remover lotion.


      Description: A rich, creamy treatment mask for moisturizing all skin types.
      • Deeply hydrates
      • Soothes and relaxes skin
      • Protects against enviromental damage
      • Ideal for all skin types
      • Formulated with natural, nourishing ingredients
      It contains: Water (Aqua), Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Water, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Leaf Water, Biosaccharide Gum-1, Glycerin, Vegetable Oil (Olus), Corylus Avellana (Hazel) Seed Oil, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Myreth-3 Myristate, Stearic Acid, Cetyl Alcohol, Cetyl Palmitate, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Propylene Glycol, Saccharide Isomerate , Codium Tomentosum Extract (Algae), Dimethicone, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Neroli Oil, Moringa Pterygosperma Seed Extract, Hydrolyzed Viola Tricolor Extract, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Flower Water, Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax (Candelilla Cera), Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Sorbitan Stearate,Octyldodecyl PCA, Menthyl PCA, Xanthan Gum, Caprylyl Glycol, 1,2-Hexanediol, Triethanolamine, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Dextrin, Biosaccharide Gum-1, Tetra Sodium EDTA, Ethylhexyglycerin, Fragrance (Parfum), Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Hexyl Cinnamal, Citronellol, Linalool, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Limonene, Geraniol.

      I've never used this on my lips, so can't review on that, but as a eye mask, this is just a satisfactory product. First of all, you should never leave it on for more than the recommended time, because it will sting. Although it claims that it s ideal for all skin types, I don't think it is suitable for sensitive skin, I have sensitive undereye area, and if I leave in on for more then the recommended time, the whole area will turn red (I ususally leave it on for 10 minutes max). Second the hydration effect isn't that obvious.

      Eye Mask - La Colline Cellular Vital Eye Mask

      La Colline - Cellular Vital Eye Mask (30ml)




      I had this for more than 2 years, and I still have 1/3 of it left, this thing lasts forever.


      This is how much you need for 1 eye





      I lay a thick layer under each eye and wait for 15 minutes before I rinse it off (I usually use it 2 times per week). When you first apply it under your eyes it might sting, but the sales lady told me that this will only occur if your under eye area is dry (I've confirmed this theory, because when my undereye area isn't dry, this stuffs does not sting). The sales lady also recommended me to use it daily for 5 minutes if the climate is really dry.

      This mask is really hydrating but it's kind of expensive, however, if you consider how long this stuffs lasts it might be worth it.

      Eye Mask - Gatineau Strategie Jeunesse

      Gatineau Strategie Jeunesse Eye Pads (Anti-Age)




      Ingredients: Aqua, Glycerin, Carbomer, Polysorbate 20, Triethanolamine, Phenoxyethanol, Soluble Collagen, Methylparaben, Benzoic Acid, Propyparaben, Sorbic Acid, Ethylparaben, Butylparaben.

      According to the instruction:
      Can be used alone for an immediate beautifying effect, and to smooth away traces of fatigue. 6X2pads. Collagen solution.

      I have combo skin, but my under eye area is always dry (i think is because of excessive use of concealer), so I got this for emergencies purpose, because this stuff is really expensive. I got it for HK$459 (about US$66)at colourmix, and it contains six pairs of eye mask.

      Each package contains 2 collagen eye compresses. You are suppose to apply several drops of serum then place one compress under each eye and wait for 10 minutes.

      This stuff provides instantaneous effect, your under eye area appears smoother after using it, but the effect doesn't last. After you wash your face, you are back to 0.

      The effect is not worth the price, so I don't think I'll be buying it again.
