@Shosh85 It wasn't bad.. I'd use more of them if I come across them, but likely won't seek it out. Too many others to try to worry about seeking out stuff that didn't really wow me. The ingredients are nice, but I'm not much for masking in the morning where I think this would be more targeted. My skin did still feel nice the a few hours later when I went to bed though!
Iโve not seen this mask before @missjeanie! it has some good ingredients for brightening; love that it was moisturizing too! ๐
@itsfi I don't even remember where I got this one from. Its been lounging in my drawers for some time.
That sounds all too familiar @missjeanie! ๐ I still find masks in random places; I donโt necessarily remember purchasing some of them! ๐คช
Gotta love that โsheet mask scentโ @missjeanie, Iโve got one on now๐ Sometimes I think your skin just happily drinks it up, wouldnโt matter which mask you had on...just appreciating the ๐!
@eshoe exactly! I've got a mud mask on at the moment... sheet mask post shower tonight I think!
I finally got to try out this Fresh Capsule Rose Mask!
The Oozoo Fresh Capsule Rose Petal Mask
This cotton sheet mask has a milky, creamy serum on the mask itself and a capsule of rose oil on the front of the package, that you are supposed to firmly press, releasing it into the pouch. After bursting the capsule, you are to massage the pouch, ensuring the rose oil from the capsule gets distributed evenly. The mask was very saturated with the milky serum and also had plenty extra left in the pouch as well. It had a very refreshing, but subtle rose scent โ that actually smelled like fresh roses, not fake and perfumy. The mask fit ok, just a bit long at the forehead and chin. It adhered well, felt comfortable and had a soothing, refreshing and cool feel. Due to how soaked it was with serum, I ended up leaving it on for about 45 minutes. When I removed it there was still some serum left that I massaged into my skin, and it wasn't tacky or sticky at all. My face felt refreshed, looked less dull and had a slight glow. After the serum had fully absorbed, my skin felt soft and smooth and stayed comfortably moisturized for most of the day. I am so glad @itsfi and @eshoe gave such glowing reviews of this mask, or else I may have never tried it! I'm also super happy that I was accidentally given a whole box of these instead of the single I ordered and paid for, because this is one I'll definitely want to use again! This one is an A+ for sure ๐
Ingredients:
Oh sounds like a good one @Shosh85! If the scent is light maybe I can tolerate it... even though I'm not a fan of rose/floral scents. ๐
@veronika23 Most floral scents I can't handle either. I like some rose scented things, as long is it's more of a fresh scent rather than fake and perfumy. It's kind of like the scent of the Fresh Rose Face Mask, except I think it's a little better than that. (To me the Fresh Rose Mask scent isn't too strong, I can handle it, it's just not my favorite)
Thanks so much for that! I feel the exact same way about the Fresh rose mask. Thx!!! @Shosh85
@lmaster This is definitely a great one! I'll be interested in hearing what you think about it! ๐๐
@Shosh85 Sounds like you had a wonderful masking experience! Yay!
@missjeanie Yup, this was definitely a great mask! I'm happy to have more to use later! ๐
@Shosh85 I just love this mask, itโs probably my favorite of all The Oozoo masks! Glad you finally tried it, the serum is so silky smooth, it is a real treat for me and reminds me to add a couple to my cart;)
@eshoe So far the only Oozoo masks I've tried are the Bear ones, and while I think those are excellent as well, I do think this one is better! I'm very happy you spoke so highly of this one! ๐๐โค๏ธ
This sounds like a great one @Shosh85 ! The ingredients list looks great too, including my current obsession beta-glucan.
@CC3616 It really is so wonderful! ๐ I'm still learning about ingredients โ what does the beta-glucan do?
@itsfi Yeah, I don't know why it's taken me so long either... oh wait, yes I do, it's because I have like a million masks to choose from! Haha! I'm really glad I have more of these to use! ๐๐
Thanks for the new thread @eshoe!!! I have some catching up to do... I always feel so behind. ๐
Also looks like Kopari is coming out with a mask called Coconut Detox. According to the post it was available now... but I can't seem to find it so I guess it will be out sometime soon.
