@itsfi So happy to hear these masks turned out so good! Banana and honey?! Sign me up! That just sounds amazing! I'm sure I'd "accidentally" take a lick of that. 😂🍌🍯 I'm not sure if "scrubbiness" is a word, but it works for me! I'm pretty sure I've used that "word" before too! 😆
I really loved that Laneige mask – in fact I think I liked most of them in this line! I'm glad you loved this one too! 👌
That honey and taro mask was so nice, @Shosh85! I have plenty of exfoliating masks to get through so I should be glad they didn't have a FS in stock. Hahaha!
These Laneige sheet masks are fabulous - have you tried all of the other ones in the line? I keep meaning to but always finding myself reaching for this one or the replenishing one. 🙂
@itsfi I've tried all the masks in this line except for the Clear C (2) – I don't know why I haven't gotten around to using it yet. 🤔🤷♀️
O is for Oozoo
I really like this mask. The fit was great and I really like the smell. I left it on for 30 minutes. My face feels so hydrated and refreshed. I will definitely buy this one again. A+🤗
@faeriegirlI can just imagine that the scent is amazing! Awesome Honey theme!
@faeriegirl This one is definitely a favorite of mine! So happy to hear you enjoyed too! 🍯👍 The Honey lip scrub is the perfect with this this mask! 👌
I'm so glad you found a good mask match, @faeriegirl! I I am excited to try this one again tomorrow night, from everyone's posts I'm guessing it will be an easy ❤️
Yeah!! So glad this was a love for you @faeriegirl! Great idea to pair it with the Sephora honey lip scrub!
I was thinking the same thing @itsfi. After you try the rose, I'm curious which one you like best @faeriegirl 🙂
I went for O theme for last nights quick masking sesh.
Last night I did my entire night routine with all Ole Henriksen products. I don't usually use all one brand for my routine only because I like to try different product. But I've really grown to love Ole.
I've tried all the products listed here before except the berry mask. It was a little different as I'm not used to a gel wash off. It was very pleasant. The scent wasn't too powerful, can't say it smelled a lot like berries, which I was hoping for, but something sweet or floral. Easy to apply and wash off and it definitely left my skin bouncy and hydrated. Will definitely look forward to using this again and again. (got this lovely at TJ Maxx)
I do use the eye gel at night regularly because I love the cooling sensation it gives to help with any depuffing.
Glad to hear you liked the Berry mask, @GalPalVal17! I haven't tried that one yet, but OH has so many nice products, I'm glad to see this is another good one.
@GalPalVal17 It's too bad it didn't have a berry scent, but results sounds great! I've had my eye on the moisturizing cream from the line – it would be nice to have the pair!
I like that the eye gel had a cooling sensation – definitely great for depuffing! I'm to hear you enjoyed it! 👍😃
Oh @GalPalVal17 lucky you, that mask has been on my hunt-down list since @heartsmyface reviewed it awhile back! It sounds very nice, a good berry scent isn't easy to find in a mask, especially one that's meant to nurture/hydrate. Nice on-theme masking 😄
Oooh, Ole!! Great to hear you like the berry mask, @GalPalVal17! I've seen it at TJ Maxx and Marshalls but haven't been able to decide whether to pick it up. I'll definitely look for it the next time i'm in the store.
The Oozoo Cocoon Silk Fresh Capsule Mask
This cotton sheet mask has a milky, creamy serum on the mask itself and a capsule of serum 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 serum 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 pretty unpleasant scent – it smelled a lot like mold to me, but the scent did dissipate a little bit, not too long after putting it on. The mask was too long at the chin and just a little big at the forehead. It was comfy to wear and had good adherence, just the extra length at the chin popped up a couple times. I had it on for about 40 minutes. When I removed it the little bit of serum that was left was a little tacky, but it all absorbed pretty quickly. My face looked looked a bit brighter and felt very soft and smooth. It also made me feel just a little dry.
This is not one I'd use again, even if it were free. This one gets a D, mostly due to the scent and the dryness.
Ingredients:
Sounds like this mask could have been for gross week @Shosh85 ! Ewww
@missjeanie Haha! In my opinion it could! 😂
@lmaster Yeah, I definitely won't be using it again!
