My experience:

I like the 3-steps masks as they save a lot of time when it comes to  traveling. They are a great space saver because some sort of cleanser, peel, ampoule, SPF, oil, eye cream is usually a part of the 3-step program. I like to take such masks for short getaways because I don’t have to pack a whole bulk of skin care items with me and I’ve got everything I need in one of such packages. This particular 3-step Hydrating Mask by MISSHA contains a moisture ampoule, sheet mask and a hydrating cream.

The essence is transparent and lightly scented. As we all know, MISSHA fragrances are always mild and pleasant to the nose. In this case all products have the same marine type of fragrance that is very fresh and energizing. Ampoule absorbs into the skin in no time and you can proceed to a step to within a minute. The sheet of the mask is soft and made of synthetic fabric. It is stretchy and hugs face curves in an excellent manner. The fit and adherence are superb.

After 20 minutes there is little to no essence left on the mask. Everything seems to be absorbed into my skin leaving me with no residue. My skin is very hydrated and has a lovely glow to it. In order to keep it that way it is always advised to use a cream no matter what. This particular cream that came with the mask is more of a thick white gel. It has a slip to it and what is in the sachet is enough to cover my face and neck. Overall a perfect amount of everything for a lazy skin care day. My face remains hydrated till the next day and I don’t have to worry about my skin screaming for more moisture.

Pros:
+ Great 3 in one product for travel
+ Amazing hydrating results on my skin
+ Calming and cooling + it reduced texture on my skin
+ Good ingredients in all 3 steps
+ Perfect for all skin types
+ Affordable and very effective for it’s price

Cons:
– All 3 steps contain fragrance which may not suit the ultra sensitive skin
