NIJU Cucumber Essence Mask Review

Review by Awungshi

I am a huge fan of Asian cosmetics. I think they have the cutest packing and when i think nothing could get cuter,there they are with another kawaii innovation.

I’ve been looking around for asian face masks in India because i was running out of the ones i have. And that’s when i stumbled upon this face masks on Urbantouch.com under Konad brand.
I quickly bought one just to try it and here is what i have to say.

PACKAGE- it comes in sachets – not the usual cute package i’m used to .Inside , there is a single sheet of face mask made of thin absorbing cloth. The usual Asian masks i use has an extra plastic sheet to prevent the cloth mask from sticking to itself and for easy removal.

HOW TO USE- Remove the mask from the packet and spread it out on your face making sure every part of your face is well covered.
Put on some nice music and lie there for 15-20 minutes.
After that remove the mask and apply the excess fluid from the packet on your face and leave it to dry.
Do not wash your face after using the face mask

INGREDIENTS- Vit E, Collagen, cucumber extract,dipotassium glyrrhizate.

WHAT IT CLAIMS- Face mask to moisturize and increase skin elasticity for healthy and younger looking skin.

Details
The sheet type essence mask is easy to use and effective in skin recovery treatment. It contains cucumber extract for soothing, brightening and moisturizing the skin and Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate (Licorice root) which prevents skin trouble and makes skin healthy. Vitamin E and collagen presents in it increases the skin elasticity and brightens the skin.


HOW IT FELT- During the process of using the face mask, my face felt really cool and nice.

After the removal of the mask, my face felt soft and the pores appeared smaller.
However ,few hours after using it ,i noticed small tiny rashes on my face.(i don’t know if it was just some co-incidence or because of the mask).i have never experienced such things with any other masks, But i am, however, reluctant to try it again.

PRICE- Rs.65/-

Available HERE and HERE

I love face masks…But i’m not sure i will try these again.

3. Remove the mask and gently massage excess serum into the skin.

5. Use the product immediately after opening.

It has separate sheets inside..

This is like a normal sheet mask..I have used Neutrogena Fine Fairness one before..and this looks similar. Since this is meant for hydrating and moisturising the skin..it does exactly that..at first skin feels soothed and gives a cooling effect..I generally keep the mask for 20-25 minutes..and blend in the excess serum later..coz it keeps deeply soaked in lots of essence..and nothing is to be used on the skin later..as it still gets absorbed into the skin..

Each mask is separately wrapped in plastic on the inside too..

Skin feels soft and smooth and completely hydrated..and the effect stays even the next day.

Pros:

1. Does what it claims..super hydrating.
2. Makes skin soft, smooth and supple.
3. This is like pampering your skin..and your skin would surely love it.
4. Skin feels brighter and the effect stays a day or two.
5. The Fruits Acid Complex and Acerola Fruit Extract are beneficial for the skin.

Cons:

1. Availability is an issue..only available online. You can buy it here
2. Expensive.
3. Has parabens.
4. Effect is short lived.

Overall I like such pampering sessions once a while..and on occasions..as the effect stays a say or two. If you have dry skin, you would love it all the more..recommend it for dry skin.

They have other masks too..for every skin type and problem..do check them out.

Rating:

Quality: 3.5/5
Value for money: 3.5/5
Availability: 3/5

Overall Rating: 3.25/5

Would I buy it again: I don’t really require Leach Me as I am not dry skinned..but yes the other masks..

P.S: PR Sample. Honest review
