Purchased by me
Founded here in Vancouver, BC I have not posted about Skoah since 2014 and it's mainly because I worked there and had a bit of a negative experience at head office where I worked, but now that I have had 10+ years of hindsight and life experience, it's mostly in the past and I feel comfortable sharing about this brand again. It also just goes to show how good the Hydradew Mask is that I have felt the need to come out of "hibernation" to let you all know just how good this mask is!
My skincare routine in the summer is definitely more lazy and especially on a humid day like yesterday where my hair was as large as the sun, I do not want my face to feel sticky, greasy, oily, moist or wet in any way. The Hydradew Mask is the ultimate summer saviour and after using many jars of this over the years, I have come back to it again and in new packaging!
This may say "mask", but don't let that fool you because in addition to using this as a mask (sleeping or wash-off), I have used this as moisturizer and even primer! I have even heard of people using this as a booster for their moisturizers and it is also great at oil-control ESPECIALLY in the summer.
This mask is oil-free and contains a powerhouse of plant-based ingredients like GAGs (glycosaminoglycans) that attract and trap moisture and maintain cell integrity of the skin, bearberry extract which is an antibacterial, soothing Arnica montana flower extract and calendula and even echinacea extract. It's literally EVERYTHING!
Ingredients: aqua, propylene glycol, hydrolyzed glycosaminoglycans, propylene glycol alginate, arctostaphylos uva ursi leaf extract, arnica montana flower extract, echinacea purpurea extract, mimosa tenuiflora bark extract, calendula officinalis flower extract, tilia cordata flower extract, ginkgo biloba extract, hedera helix extract, avena sativa kernel extract, hypericum perforatum extract, camellia oleifera leaf extract, allantoin, PVM/MA decadiene crosspolymer, triethanolamine, diazolidinyl urea, iodopropynyl butylcarbamate, parfum/fragrance, citric acid, sodium hydroxide
In addition to the unique melon scent (I hate melons, but the scent of this is actually pleasant!), the gel texture is cooling and absorbs into the skin SO FAST which is why it makes a great primer that doesn't pill! It leaves skin with a smooth finish in under 5 minutes that does not stick to your pillow or can even create that smooth finish when used on top of let's say an extra sticky sheet mask!
It is easy to wash off, unlike a lot of other sleeping masks, and I kid you not, this has been my moisturizer every single night for the last 2 weeks! I cannot get enough of it!
Final verdict: There is now a "summer sized" of the Hydradew Mask which means double the awesomeness for less than double the price so I think I will need to pick it up especially since we are going to be seeing some hot temperatures next week! This was a truly unique product more more than years ago when I first tried it and even after all this time in the beauty blogging world, this mask is still like no other so definitely give this mask a try if you haven't already!
You can find the Skoah Hydradew Mask at www.skoah.com and at all Skoah locations (go to the North Van one because that's the best one IMO!)
