ERABELLE Mizu Therapy Mask

The Japanese word MIZU means WATER 

• Performance Wise:  Loved the smell and the moisturizing effects of this mask. If you need a dose of calm, this mask delivers. The essence is thick glue-like, non-sticky and would make your skin touch-ably soft; for the price I have expected it would at least brighten my skin but I did not notice any of that.

• Price: OMG, price point is absurd, SGD26.75 per piece? If you purchase a box consisting of 5 pieces, it's SGD107!  I know I know it's made in Japan, well not really only the material is from Japan but this is Taiwan made. The only mask I am willing to spend on is still the SK II WHITENING INTENSIVE SOURCE MASK ....it's addicting, nuff said. Besides the SK II is only SGD128 so it's not much of a difference. HAHA BIAS? I'll bet you'll choose SK II as well LOL

• Packaging: I have misplaced the cover of this mask, but it comes in a sturdy cardboard like cover, with a dainty floral design similar to the print you see on the above pic. The cloth is soft with a medium thickness and fits my entire face well..really comfortable when worn. 

Here is the catch. Every time I use a facial sheet mask, I do get breakouts. Like a pimple or two, right after washing my face. Yes, with any mask I still do wash my face afterwards. I do not believe in letting the essence sink into your skin for too long. I am already immune to the breakout scenario that is why I try to stay away from them. The SK II is one sheet mask that does not give me anyof those, that is why I love that. Now, I was surprised that this ERABELLE is officially the 1st Runner Up. Nadah sight of a pimple after first use! Overall it's a great mask, nourishing but non-radiance boosting.

P.S. I got no blardy idea on why was the mask so ripped apart .  It's as if there was a mice nibbling on my face that it somehow turned out to be like that LOL.
