Innisfree It’s real squeeze mask Bamboo

Today I am reviewing the Innisfree It's real squeeze mask Bamboo. This sheet mask is very lovely and affordable option suitable for for the daily use. It is moderately hydrating and will suit all skin types. Use it in AM routine on  a humid day and your make-up will stay put the whole day long. I love how light and non-irritating these masks are.

My experience:

I enjoyed this mask Innisfree It's real squeeze mask Bamboo a lot. Starting from it’s nice recognizable packaging and ending up with good results on my oily skin. It met it’s claims making my skin more firm and on the top of it it evened out my skin tone. I ended up having on of the best skin days in few weeks and I think that major player in it was this particular product since nothing else changed that day.

Once you open the packet you can catch a light green scent. It is so subtle that you may even not notice it at all. The sheet is made of thin cotton that is slightly rough to the touch. It is quite stretchy so you can stretch it sideway if you would like to. My biggest complaint to these masks remains the same. Please, Innisfree, if you will ever read this, please change the sheet to something more soft and fluffy.

The big downside of the sheet for me is the fit of this mask. I have quite prominent nose and no matter how I try to push it down around my nose, the sheet keeps lifting up. Even when  I wear my glasses over it it seems to have air around the nose bridge area. this time I was too lazy to cut it here and there so I just left it the way it is. The wearing t ime is 15 minutes for tis one. The essence is quite watery so it evaporates faster than other ones in this line.

I took the mask off and was left with baby smooth skin that was very hydrated and looked brighter than before the application. The leftover essence was completely absorbed by my skin in less than a minute. I did enjoy the final results a lot and will be buying it again. The mask does what it promises and has an affordable price tag to it so why not use it more often. Any skin type could use this one without sensitizing their skin. Wonderful one this one!
