Review: The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack

This review post is a unique one! I discovered The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack by accident when I was loitering outside the shop while waiting for my friends to be done with their toilet business. The product intrigued me because I have never seen anything like it. Masks for your nail area? Weird but ingenius! It's also quite cheap, at S$2.90 per nail pack, so I just grabbed one to try! 

From the packaging itself, you would have already guessed what this nail pack does. It's a brilliant idea, especially for those who change nail colours so frequently. The acetone in nail polish removers is effective in removing nail polish, but at the same time, it is also extremely drying. You can say your nail polish remover has no acetone in it and it's written on the label! Well, my answer to that is you often see fruit juice labels that claim "no sugar" or "100% from fresh fruits", but we know the truth behind those labels right? 

The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack aims to moisturise those dry nail areas. The lemon in it is also supposedly great for brightening up the areas, or reduce the appearance of blemishes at those areas. 

Well, we don't really know the truth in those claims, so let's see if they really work! 

Packaging: No fuss and extremely straightforward. From the front, you immediately know what the product does. The nail pack is divided into 2 sections and in each section you have 5 individual masks for each of your fingers. It is advised to use up all 10 at once. I tried only 5 masks (left hand first), and noticed that after 15 minutes, there were still enough liquid for the other hand. So now, one nail pack can be used twice! Hoorah! :) 

Mask texture: It's just like any of those old face masks, but now in tiny pockets. The cloth used is quite rough, but since I wasn't using it for my face, the roughness didn't bother me at all. Obviously, the nail masks were longer and bigger than what was indicated on the front packaging.

Do be very dainty when you use The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack though. I wasn't and I immediately noticed the holes. =_=

LEFT: BEFORE NAIL PACK & RIGHT: AFTER NAIL PACK. 

Did it work? It's quite miraculous and I'm pleased to say that The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack did actually make my nail area more hydrated than before! If you noticed in the photo above, the fine lines on the right hand just above the nails were visibly reduced! I'm quite impressed by this product!

Will I buy it again? It's an accidental find, and I'm glad I bought it. I always complain about my increasingly ageing hands and now I can add The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack to the repertoire of products that I use to counter the ageing effects!

Do give The Face Shop Lemon Brightening Nail Pack a try and I hope you guys are as blown away as I am! :)
