JM Solution Glow Luminous Aurora Mask

JM Solution Glow Luminous Aurora Mask is one of my staple sheet masks for the day time use. It is so amazing at brightening my complexion and evening out the skin tone! I love the glow it gives and will keep repurchasing it probably up until I retire or if it gets discontinued. Despite the alcohol in the formula, it doesn't irritate my skin. I do experience slight tingling but it subsides within minute or two and after that it is pure pleasure.

My experience:

JM Solution Glow Luminous Aurora Mask is unique in it's own way. It contains some shimmer particles in the essence and is made for day time use so that we all could enjoy the beautiful glow. The amount of skin beneficial ingredients is off the chart, so it is quite normal to see quite few preservatives in the mix too. Being a fan of the brand and trying out nearly every sheet mask they produce, I can say that Aurora mask is one of my personal (absolute) favorites from the entire range.

One you open the pack you feel a massive cloud of rose scent emerging from it. The fragrance is very linear and strong at the first contact but then you get used to it quite fast. The sheet is very thin and soft. Due to the milky essence it looks like it is very thick and bulky but no needs to worry, it is simply an illusion because of how densely white the essence is. Adherence of the sheet of the mask is great, so is it's fit on my face. Essence is very creamy to the touch but melts into the skin in no time. Amount of essence left in the pack is enough to saturate second sheet mask in it.

Wearing time for this sheet mask is half an hour. After those 30 minutes you can remove the sheet mask and swipe it across your arms/legs so they get plenty of goodness too. Despite the alcohol in the formula, mask doesn't irritate my skin. I do experience slight tingling for the first couple of minutes but after that it feels like any regular good quality sheet mask - highly moisturizing and very soothing.

One important thing though, tap the remaining essence before it dries out on your face in splotches. Due to the pearl powder it, even finish is important. The essence tends to collect in crevices around the nose and if you don't make sure that the remaining  essence is in even thin layer, you may end up with shiny nose wings. Speaking if the glow: my face radiates beautiful shine and is looking very youthful after each mask. My dark circles around the eyes are diminished and my skin is even in color. In terms of hydration, JM solution masks are my golden standard sheet masks for returning moisture into my skin. Combine that with peptides, allantoin and beta-glucan trio and voila- reversing some signs of aging right here right now! I'd recommend this mask for anyone with not too sensitive skin. If you like the beautiful glow and healthy looking skin, JM Solution Glow Luminous Aurora Mask is definitely for you.
