After a day at the beach while on holiday, I thought it would be the best time to crack out this mask to test it.
The sheet mask has two layers inside the packet. The blue one is the protected barrier and the white one is very lubricated with serum. The white side is pressed to the skin and then you peel the blue layer off and throw away. I was impressed by the amount of serum on the sheet....there was a lot!
This sheet mask was a little big for my face like I find with most sheet masks, but with some subtle folding in parts, it had a very good coverage and adhered to my face very well. It had a lovely smell that wasn’t too strong either.
I kept the mask on my face for the 15 minutes as stated in the instructions. When I took off the mask, I wasn’t sure what to do with the excess serum as there was a lot remaining on my skin. I massaged the excess in and my skin felt really soft and plump after.
I was very happy with the result of the mask and felt it exceeded my expectations and would definitely buy in future.
The L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Youthful Brightening Tissue Mask is a brightening mask promising anti-aging benefits, extra radiance and a healthy glow. The packaging recommends using three masks a week for four weeks for less visible find lines and wrinkles, improved skin tone, more luminous skin and a reduction in signs of fatigue but as a tissue mask is a far more occasional treat for me, I'm never going to get to these results.
From it's foil packaging mask was absolutely freezing and a shock to put on, but after relaxing for 15 minutes my face felt refreshed. Some of the claimed improvements in comparison to other tissue masks on the packaging seemed less than beneficial to me - at 0.3mm the mask is perhaps too thin as it's fiddly to get on even with the supportive blue film to assist in applying it and lots of bubbles needed to be smoothed out. Having 10x more serum is also excessive as the tissue mask is quite saturated and a lot of excess remained on my face after the 15 minutes. I will revert back to my regular Garnier tissue masks for the future.
