Review: Purederm Illuminating Arbutin Mask

wanted so much to love tis range of mask, but it let me down yet again its stated on the mask that it has got soothing & hydrating purposes.. though i tot the main result is to brighten up my skin since its Illuminating Arbutin.

The amt of essence found in this mask and the material etc is more or less similiar to the Pearl essence one that ive tried previously from this range. Even the smell is the same haha.

the hydrating effect is not as gd as the pearl essence one in my opinion.. not so much of the brightening effect as well. but jaime commented that i looked ‘white’ this morning.. im not sure what her white means.. but fr her expression.. i dont thnk she meant brighter face lol.

Verdict: 5/10. im so not looking forward to the remaining green tea collagen mask.. shldnt have bought 4 mask fr this range (3diff flavors though) at 1 go!

Review: Purederm Dark Circles Reducer Eye Patches

tried Purederm dark circles reducer eye patches fr watsons. there are 2pairs in each pack, $1.95 for 2pairs.

this eye patch is very diff fr my previous ones, in terms of material. one side is cotton, the other is a sticky patch to be stick onto my eye area. i dont really lk it cos it feels lk im pulling my delicate skin when i remove it. and if u accidentally stick it onto ur lashes, u can probably say bye to ur lovely lashes then. one advantage is that it wont drop off no matter how u shake ur head though lol.

next, there is no signs of essence. this makes me wonder hw my skin can absorb the essence seriously. but if u are those who don lk essence dripping down, u will probably love this eye patch.

results wise, my under eye do look a bit brighter, but dont look hydrated enough to me. for $1/pair, results is so-so, there are better ones around like my current ELG eye mask, cheaper still haha.

Verdict: i wont buy it again cos i dont like the idea of pulling my eye area! but for the fact that it dint cause me bumps, so yea, i’ll let it pass. 5/10

Review: Purederm Pearl Essence Mask

pretty packaging right! i Love the bottle shaped, and the very ‘glowy’ picture in the background. their illuminating arbutin & green tea mask are v pretty too! bought this mainly bcos i tnk its lovely haha.

its selling for $1.95 at watsons. Sasa has them too, but limited choices and slightly more expensive, at $2.5/pc.

the sheet mask is believed to be made from 100% pulp, which prevent skin trouble & close adhesion to our skin. well, this is q true cos the mask fits my face q well, the size is juz right too. the material is slightly diff fr my usual masks, feel smoother in texture & the thickness of the sheet is juz nice.

Essence is moderate and the scent is normal, pretty similar to skinlite (the other korean mask that im using). i tnk cos they added in fragrance, so they all smell somewhat similar =.= No detection of alcohol.

Result:
this mask seems to have soothing effect since my zits looks less red after masking. however, i dont really see brightening effect. my face juz feel soft & smooth, not sure if its the mask or bcos i exfoliated b4 applying this mask. the hydrating effect is so-so, so if u have dry skin or looking for sth more moisturising, i would suggest you go for silk whitia instead. but if u are looking for sth light, this might be gd. No sticky feeling after usage & dint give me any zits the next day too.

Verdict: 5.5/10. the half mark comes fr the pretty packaging lol. with $1.95, there are better masks like silk whitia in the market.


很漂亮的包装。瓶装型的，很特别。当初买这款面膜很大部分是为了它的包装。 我也买了这款的Green Tea 和 illuminating arbutin. 在本地的Watson和Sasa能买到，不过watson比较便宜，$1.95/片，Sasa则卖$2.5/片。

面膜是100% pulp，敷贴性确实不错。质地也满滑，不会像有些面膜一样薄薄的。 这款面膜添加了香料，但还好味道还算“正常”。面膜的精华液分量一般，无酒精含量。

结论： 面膜似乎有舒缓效果，敷完后痘痘没那么红肿了，也不会有粘粘的感觉，隔天用完也没新的痘痘。但我没看到应有的亮白效果，脸只是觉得蛮滑蛮嫩的，但我不排除是因为我刚去角质的缘故。保湿效果一般，所以如果皮肤是干的，或需要很滋润的面膜，这款大概不会太合适。

评分：5.5/10 那半分基于包装漂亮哈哈。满足了我个人的视觉效果，但$1.95其实还可以买到更物有所值的面膜。
