Today, I wanted to review two products I've been using: From Nature's Multi-Effect Collagen Honey Mask and IOPE's Essential Moisture Relief Cream.
Multi-Effect Collagen Honey Mask: As I noted in my February Favourites, using a sheet mask everyday in Korea is a trend many like to do. Whilst I am not a stickler to this trend, I do tend to use a sheet mask almost every day. I recently got this when I got home; I think I got this at Vic's but don't quote me on that. For me, I feel like most sheet masks, the essence ones, not the gel ones, generally are similar to each other. I wanted to review this mask because I don't think people realise that there are a variety of sheet masks available in Korea.
One thing I hate in certain sheet masks is the lack of surface area around the nose. This sheet mask did allow for coverage of the nose. There also were flaps which I think is to modify the eye area to cover the bags, depending on your face shape. I was not a fan of the flaps but I did like how it covered most of my face.
According to the package, this sheet mask is good to use to deeply moisturise your skin as it contains honey and collagen. With that promise, I decided use it after a late night with some friends. My skin was feeling very dry and I decided to use the mask to soothe my skin and also moisturise, exactly what the package described. I put the mask on and I fell asleep watching a movie ("Sausage Wars." It was mindless but very raunchy.) When I awoke and took the mask off, my skin definitely felt a difference.
Would I recommend it?: Yes; I think most sheet masks are effective, as I said before, supra. I also think this sheet mask really does moisturise without really irritating your skin.
IOPE Essential Moisture Relief Cream: During the summers, I like using a lighter moisturiser since the heat makes a heavy moisturiser difficult to use. I find, however, even if I want a lighter moisturiser, that doesn't take away of the need to moisturise. I find a lot of gel-based moisturisers really do not effectively give me the proper moisture I need and I end up producing more oil then usual.
The IOPE's moisture relief cream does not do that. It is a light-weight moisturise and immediately sinks into your skin. I like how it doesn't fight with the other products I am using and I love the scent. It feels so nice to put it on my skin with the delicate scent.
Would I recommend it?: If you live in a humid environment, viz. Southeast Asia, I feel this is a good mid-price cream to use. If your summers are humid, this also is a good one. The fact that it is water-based yet really quickly enters your skin whilst moisturising really makes this a good purchase.
