Review: Sexy Look Rejuvenating Duo Lifting Mask

[Disclaimer: This mask was sent to me for review purposes. However, all opinions are of my own and not purposely written more positive/more negative because the product was sent to me.]

Once again, mySecretive.com was extremely kind to send me one box of the Sexy Look Rejuvenating Duo Lifting Mask to review. 

The Sexy Look Rejuvenating Duo Lifting Mask retails for S$8.80 for a box of 5 masks. 




Ingredients List


This mask promises to:
  • give your skin double moisture to keep skin supple (due to addition of bird's nest)
  • fight against gravity, especially with the ear hooks, to lift up your skin in various areas
  • delay aging, repair damaged skin and firm sagging skin (thanks to the addition of caviar)
Any mask that has anti-aging and firming properties, I'm all for it. I'm currently in a sad situation in which I realised my skin is going to age much faster - so much more than before, and hence I cannot be complacent anymore. I need to nourish my skin!! 




Mask design: It looks like a typical sheet mask but with the ear hooks. Masks with ear hooks are gaining popularity quite rapidly because of how they are beneficial for lifting and firming purposes. Personally, I'm on the fence. The good news is your mask will no longer slide down when you are sitting up right or walking around, and yes perhaps you will see lifting effects. The other end of the story is it gets really messy, especially when you hook it around your ears - your hair is bathed in all that goodness as well, not necessarily a pleasant feeling. Also, lifting effects will normally not be seen after one usage - it requires diligent and habitual application. So, I'm not a fan, but I'm not going to bash it either. 


Application: I was really enjoying the application process. This mask is definitely made out of a different kind of material. On one hand, it's very resistant to tears so you can really pull the mask to fit your face contours (and you get that "pulling" sensation as well), and on the other hand, it's very smooth and it fits onto your face easily without the irksome "bubble" troubles. I truly enjoy putting this mask on my face! 

Fragrance: Nothing much to complain about. However, if you have the tendency to suffer from giddy spells due to strong smells, then perhaps you should avoid the mask/use it when your headache condition is better, because the smell is a little bit strong. 

Double hydration? I definitely noticed a difference in my skin after using this mask in terms of moisturising factor. It's really an effective mask to use for those with dry skin! I'm not a person with dry skin however because of my acne medication, I have been getting dry spells on my face. One week it will be oily, and one week it will be extremely dry and flaky. I used this mask when my skin was horribly flaking, and I'm glad that the mask helped to salvage the situation quite a bit. 

Firming and lifting? Since I only used the mask once, it's not wise for me to go all excited about firming and lifting effects I did experience the "lifting" sensation though, so that's a good start eh? I'm quite sure with more applications, I will see perhaps a more defined jawline? :D 

Did the mask deliver what it promised? Yes, definitely! I loved how it saved my flaking skin! Also, I don't know if it's just me, but I really enjoyed that "lifting" sensation. It's like an indication that there's some lifting mechanism working underneath the sheet. The Sexy Look Rejuvenating Duo Lifting Mask is something that you should try! And it's so reasonably priced too!
