Review: SK-II's Brightening Derm Revival Face Mask

Hello, my friends!

Bottom Line - I really saw a difference with this mask and will rebuy it soon to prep for my wedding!

SK-II:
SK-II is a Japanese skincare company that was founded in 1980 by Japanese scientists. During the 1970, Japanese scientists began researching powerful naturally derived ingredients that could be used in skincare products. When they observed workers at a sake brewery in Japan, they noticed while their faces appeared aged - their hands (which were submerged in fermented yeast everyday to make the sake) were smooth, youthful, and clear. The scientist began research the yeast and discovered a specific yeast strain which they felt was responsible for this youthful transformation. PITERA - the yeast strain - is now in every one of their products and has been marketed to the world as the secret to everlasting youth.

SK-II's Brightening Derm Revival Face Mask:
I didn't have high expectations for this mask because I tried SK-II's other mask (I'll post a review of that one another time) and I wasn't impressed. So when I was given this mask as a freebie from a SK-II representative, I figured it would hydrate, but do very little else. I was wrong and pleasantly surprised with the results. Not only did it hydrate, but it brighten and evened my skin tone. I even noticed some hyperpigmentation from a recent pimple was much lighter. I liked this mask so much that I plan to buy the set for my wedding this Spring - even though it is quite expensive.

Stats:
Like I said - this is expensive (as all SK-II products are) at $170 for 10 mask (that's $17 per mask). I wish the masks were sold individually since their other mask is sold individually and as a set - but I haven't seen this one sold separately.

You can purchase this on SK-II's website (www.sk-ii.com), but it's also available at Neiman Marcus, Macys, Saks Fifth Avenue, Sephora, and Nordstroms. 

I do not recommend buying high-end beauty products from Amazon or eBay. While I love Amazon and eBay and most sellers are legitimate with quality products - beauty products tend to be highly susceptible to fraud. If you're going to spend your hard earned money, make sure you're buying what you think you're buying. 

That's it. Let me know if you have any questions.

Review: 6 Different SokoGlam Sheet Masks

Greetings, my friends! Bottom Line  - I would buy almost every mask again with the exception of the E-Nature mask. E-Nature: Per SokoGlam.com, E-Nature was founded on the principle of creating breakthrough formulas for your skin by fusing cutting-edge Korean technology with the safest and most effective natural ingredients. E-Nature's Squeeze Green Watery Sheet Mask: This mask was "okay." It's a cotton mask soaked in watery essence (not goo) which felt nice and cool on my face, but I didn't see any difference other than that it slightly hydrated my skin. It's meant to treat excess sebum, but I didn't notice a difference either. This costs $2.50, but I don't think I'll buy it again. Klavuu: Per SokoGlam.com, Klavuu is Korea's first marine pearl cosmetic brand that infuses natural pearl, essential oils, and marine plant extracts into their signature formulas. Natural pearls will enrich, hydrate, and firm the skin, for the most ra...

Review: Dermalogica's Oil Free Matte SPF 30

Greetings, my friends! Bottom Line  - this is a great matte daytime lotion which I think is worth a try for someone looking for a new lotion. Dermalogica : Dermalogica is an American skincare company founded by Jane and Rey Wurwand in 1986. However, before the first Dermalogica products were made - in 1983, Jane, a U.K. trained skin therapist, opened "The International Dermal Institute" for licensed skin therapists to teach hands-on postgraduate level skincare training. Realizing there weren't products on the market which matched what she was teaching, Jane and Rey established Dermalogica. They decided they wanted a p roduct line free of common irritants and ingredients which they felt led to breakouts, such as lanolin, SD alcohol, mineral oil, artificial colors, and fragrances - and that's exactly what they ended up creating. Dermalogica Oil Free Matte SPF 30 : This is a great light daytime lotion. Not only does it  soak in quickly and leaves a matte-ish s...
