Garnier Cryo Jelly Sheet Mask

The mask was nice and cooling, but I'm not sure it firmed up my skin. It did feel softer though. It does say after 4 weeks skin will look smoother, plumped and healthier, so perhaps if you used them weekly you would see better results than just after 1 use.

I really enjoyed trialing this product from Garnier. Firstly, it certainly did exactly as advertised. It was definitely cooling on the skin (perhaps a little too cooling for the winter time! It would be lovely in the summer) and it left my skin feeling extremely hydrated and plump.

I found the mask a little tricky to apply (in hindsight I should have done it in-front of a mirror!) but thankfully my husband was there to help me get it sorted. I did find the eye holes were a little small, and it felt like some of the jelly could slip into my eye at any moment! It didn't though :)

I enjoyed the smell. It was pleasant without being overpowering.

I wasn't the hugest fan of the feel of a sheet mask (I think it was because it sat too close to my eyes), but I would definitely be interested to use this exact product in a face mask form, where you can apply a thick layer to your skin and then wipe it off.

I absolutely loved the face that it was home compostable! I could throw it straight in our compost when I was done.... amazing!!

Overall, although It wasn't the most comfortable sheet mask ever, I would use it again to get the hydrating benefits. I can also imagine this mask being really nice to use in the summer-time, and if you are sick with a fever!

Love love this sheet mask!

Comes saturated with glycerin, hyaluronic acid and menthol. Find a quiet spot and chill out with this mask you won't regret it. The menthol provides the cooling effect and it truly does deliver as I nearly fell asleep. My skin felt very hydrated and smooth, I didn't need any moisturizer afterwards and used some of the excess on my neck and decolletage. The instructions say to leave on for 15 minutes but I always leave them on for longer. There is left over product in the sachet that can be used another day.

As this mask is cooling I can see this being a favourite over summer.

Wow I really liked this facemask. When I first put it on the gel felt hydrating and lush, within minutes I felt the cooling sensation start (after a mild panic I was reacting but realised it was the cooling!) I loved the feeling. It stayed cooling throughout the period it said to wear it for on the packet (15mins) after taking it off and rubbing it in my face feels soft, clean and hydrated with no sticky residue that some of these masks have. I loved this one

I'm not the biggest fan of sheet masks but I'm always keen to try something new.

So this one comes in a 50% paper-based sachet which is great and it opened easily from tearing the perforation. The mask came out in a complete soggy ball of slime and I really struggled to open it out and thought that it was going to be a dismal failure. But once it was open it just slid onto my face and settled into place. What a surprise! It was absolutely refreshing and cooling. The mask didn't stay slimy on my face which was interesting. I had already used all the excess jelly on my neck and hands, but the mask itself dried out more than any other face mask I've tried. It felt so nice and when I took it off, my face did appear fresher. It still feels quite hydrated for some time afterwards.

The product claim is that the mask cools skin’s temperature by -7°C* and instantly minimises signs of fatigue. I'd say that is a fair claim. It also claims to firm skin and provide a layer of moisture. Again, I believe it meets this claim. It is one of the better face masks I've used.

There are many other things to like about it as well, including that it is vegan, cruelty free, biodegradable and made in a carbon neutral factory. Anything that aims to reduce our footprint on the planet and avoids harm to living things is a plus in my book.

I like this mask and recommend it to others to try.

I also tried the jelly eye masks and they were equally good - very cooling and firming around my eyes.
