As I write this, I have been struck down with a winter cold that started quite suddenly yesterday at work around 1pm when my chest started feeling super itchy and congested. I just figured it was how dry it was in the store with the cold and the heat on, but I woke up feeling equally congested and my voice has now become the "sexy phone voice" and I start to want to cough uncontrollably if I speak more than couple of sentences or at a louder volume so I will be using my inside voice for the weekend in the hopes that I am better by Monday as I ended up having to text in sick today. I figure that now it's not worth it to "power through" being ill. If there is a manager there to take over, then I'll take my rest where I can get it!

I got this mask for the brand, but mainly how pretty the packaging was! It has been a great prop in flatlays and served me well, but the time (and expiration) came for me to finally use and enjoy this mask.
So, what makes this mask special? The whole idea behind this series of masks was to have ingredients found in teas be in this mask so for ingredients we have white tea extract, licorice root extract, ginger root extract and featured ingredient - hibiscus extract. Note that this latter ingredient is close to the very bottom of the list.
Missha masks generally fit well and for the price, I've always been happy with the "service" they provide.
Mask Summary:
Price: $4
What it does: Revitalize the skin
Scent: Very faint
Essence Type: Clear and almost a little slimy, but not in a gross way
Duration: 30 minutes
Thickness: Thin
Mask Fit: Good with just a little bit of the mask creeping into my hairline
Tackiness: Light
Hydration: Quite nice with me not wanting to apply moisturizer afterwards
Other notes: N/A
Final verdict: I think this mask was very hydrating more because there was castor oil and glycerin in very high concentrations rather than due to the featured plant ingredients, but I don't mind based on the price of this mask. It is one of those more fun masks that if you get a deeper skincare benefit out of it, it is a bonus!
Unfortunately, I think these masks are no longer in stock, but thankfully Missha has tons of other great masks!
