Garnier Vitamin C Tissue Mask

This is a refreshing mask to use and has a nice smell, but not overwhelming. It was easy to move around and do jobs whilst wearing this for the 15 minutes. Afterwards, when I rubbed it in as suggested it ended up feeling a bit sticky and grimy. To be honest I didn’t notice a big difference in my skin post using the mask unfortunately.

This mask is absolutely saturated with serum, almost too much!

The scent is not overpowering and the mask is easy to apply.

After 15 minutes my skin did look more hydrated and healthy but I didn’t notice it any brighter.

Overall it’s a nice sheet mask but nothing special enough for me to buy and use again.

I’m not sure I entirely understand the point in tissue masks. Surely just applying serum achieves a very similar goal without the sitting around with a wet, cold tissue on your face? I went into this a little skeptical (obviously). The mask itself is so drenched in serum unfolding it alone is a mission in itself. The second mission came in the form of trying to line up the eye, nose and mouth holes as best I could without getting serum in my eyes and mouth. It was cold, slimy and generally uncomfortable. The mask did stay in place for the 15mins but I was constantly feeling like there was serum dripping down the side of my face and neck. Removing the mask is easy enough, just whip that sucker off. But the amount of serum left behind is…a lot. I had to wipe most off with a cotton pad as it was way too much to just rub in. The drying/soaking process has a horrible sticky situation in the middle, and when it finally dried I did not feel at all hydrated or ‘brighter’. I could feel my face become slimy the next day as I washed it, I do not have this with any other serum I have used so feel that this one just sat on top of the skin, not doing anything. I would not use this mask again, I saw absolutely no benefit and found the entire experience uncomfortable. Not to mention the environmental impact on single use, tissue masks.
