Purchased by me
Early on in my sheet mask "career", the PibuWang #17VDerma sheet mask was one of the few out there that were vegan and had EWG certified Grade 1 ingredients (I never liked the EWG, but to some this is important). This brand also pledged to donate a portion of their revenue to animal rescue efforts in Korea as their "beauty muse" is their adopted street cat Mormi. The cynic in me wants to say this is all just a convenient way of putting a cat on their packaging, but I am going to be positive and believe that all of this is indeed true!
PibuWang touts using a "REST Formula" to restore and strengthen the skin barrier after exposure to external stressors like pollution and UV, which is a blend of 17 EWG certified Grade 1 ingredients like cypress tree oil (anti-inflammatory, astringent and antibacterial), allantoin, calendula and hyaluronic acid and avocado oil for hydration. Safe and soothing for even the most sensitive skin types, this mask is free of artificial fragrance, alcohols, dyes and parabens and is made of 100% natural cotton.
The mask itself and the experience was LOVELY. It smells like lavender which is one of my favourite scents and the mask was nice and thin and fit well across the facial contours.
Mask Summary:
Price: 5 Pack/$17.99 USD
Skin concerns: Stressed skin, compromised skin barrier
Scent: Lavender
Essence Type: Clear, viscous
Duration: 20 minutes
Thickness: Thin
Mask Fit: Pretty good. Just had to cut some slits higher up on the nose so that the mask would lie flat.
Tackiness: Ever so slightly tacky like the way normal skin feels
Hydration: Good and very even skin tone!
Other notes: My skin looked like I had just done a Silk Peel which is very gentle form of microdermabrasion.
Final verdict: I am glad I bought a pack of 5 because I would hands down use this mask again for both the therapeutic benefits and overall skin-glowing results! I just wish it was easier to find online or in-store!
