My experience:
Emojination Aloe Vera Mask Sheet has been a pleasant surprise for me, who loves loves loves hydrating masks. It comes in a bright pink packaging that is easy to handle and has an image of emoji printed on the front. Each emoji represents the print of the mask inside. Out of 4 styles that were laying in the store I grabbed two and immediately went out and tested it for you.
The sheet is made of soft cupra and has a perfect fit for my round face. The sheet adhered very well and remained put on my face through-ought the process. Due to the fact that cupra absorbs a lot of moisture at a time, this mask is a heaven on earth when it comes to hot humid weather. The essence is great and gellishly thick making the whole think last on my face much longer than initially advised. I've kept the mask on for 25 minutes and my face felt very relaxed and smooth afterwards.
The essence is transparent in color and is unscented which is a big bonus. for those who can't tolerate strong smells in the heat. I love everything perfume'y if the scent is nice. This one was a lovely change for me even though it is scentless. As for the action on my face, all I can say is Wa-wa-wi-wa! I love how plumped and hydrated my skin looks after using it. the sheet is delicate enough not to feel heavy on the skin and it is sooooo refreshing. My skin was very red after 2 hour long biking outdoors and this mask has reduced the redness to the minimum. It is a wonderful soother too.
If your skin is sensitive or you are looking for a great sheet mask for the burning hot weather, look no further. This is it for me. Despite the horrific print on the mask that makes me look like I grew a beard overnight, this stuff is wonderful. Zero trace on the skin, quick absorption of the remaining essence, mild and gentle formula, what is there not to love 🙂
