Saborino Morning Face Mask 390yen
Are you a type of person who tends to hit the snooze button to sleep extra 5 minutes...becomes 10 minutes..end up with15 minutes, then start running around trying not waste a second in the morning? Well, I am. I have never been a morning person in my life, and I am always running late. So, I had to try out Saborino Morning Face Mask to see if it does what it claims.
Saborino Morning Face Mask does everything from cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising, creating a perfect base for makeup. How attractive does it sound for not-a-morning-person like me?
I got a smaller size that contains 5 sheets, they have a bigger one that comes with 32 sheets (which they claim contains 304ml of lotion!!) as well. Usually I struggle to take one sheet mask out of this kind of bag, but surprisingly this one was very easy for some reason. It might be due to the material of the mask, which is thicker than typical sheet mask I would say.
You're supposed to stretch the mask to fit on your face, but I didn't find it too stretchy. I placed it on my face, then realised they have very small holes for eyes, and they are very close to each other. Though my eyes aren't the biggest in the world, they did't fit in to the holes. I liked the fact it hugs the jaw and neck with the extra parts on the edges if that makes sense...
It felt very refreshing and soothing on the skin. You're supposed to leave it for one minute, which I did. It gently exfoliates the skin, while moisturising and nourishing. I removed the mask, and pat the remaining lotion on the skin, and put foundation on top to see if it really does work as primer too. Unfortunately my foundation didn't go on as smoothly as I was expecting, and it made me reassure that I prefer following my usual morning skincare routine than using this mask only.
I love the concept and how easy it is to take one mask out off the package, but for me it didn't do what it claimed to do. However, it's very popular among Japanese girls at the moment, which means it works well for them! Give it a go if you are a lazy girl, you might find it a lifesaver in the busy morning ;)
