This Korean face mask review in Kenya blog post is about the k sheet masks that are locally available in E. Africa.

These k beauty masks are cotton-based or cellulose sheets that are infused with potent serums and essences. Once you apply them on the face, the sheet seals the ingredients in the skin to aid their penetration.

Packaging

The usual Korean face mask packaging of a sealed paper satchet. However I liked the Aritum Glow shopping bag that it was placed in after I bought it.

How to use a face mask sheet in Kenya

Ingredients

Water, butylene glycol, PEG/PPG-17/6 copolymer, glycerin, citrus paradisi (grapefruit) fruit extract, PEG-75, alcohol, PEG-60, hydrogenated castor oil, camellia sinensis seed extract, xanthum gum, odium hyaluronate, disodium edta, phenoxyethanol, fragrance.

The Science

Water is the first ingredient which means it is has a high percentage of water which is great for a hydrating mask.

Glycerin (glycerine, glycerol) is a humectant or hygroscopic which means it attracts water from the air to the outer layer of the skin and this makes it great for hydrating the skin. It is similar to the skin’s natural moisturizing factor (NMF) which makes it suitable for all skin types.

Grapefruit contains antioxidants which fight the free radicals that cause premature aging. It also contains natural exfoliants which help even the skin tone.

How to Use a Fask Mask Sheet

The instructions according to the package are as follows: 1. After washing the face, apply toner to prepare the skin for the next step of skin care. 2. Open the pouch, pull out the mask, and place on the face, using the eye area to align correctly. 3. Remove after 10-20 minutes and gently pat for better absorption.

Fragrance

It has a very mild “barely there” scent which is understandable since fragrance is the lasting ingredient.

Availability

This Korean face mask is available in Kenya and I bought it from Aritum Glow on Instagram

Price

Ksh 250

Pros

I love this Korean face mask because it transformed my face and give me an awesome, dewy glow in just 20 minutes. I also love the price because this means I can buy a whole stash.

Cons

I generally prefer using natural, organic products and this is not one of them. I would not recommend this or any other face mask for a person on treatment for acne to avoid interactions with their medications.

Would I Buy It Again?

Yes, I would and I have already bought some to keep for when I want to look like I spent a whole afternoon in a spa but do not have the time to spare.
