Texture & Scent:
This mask is quite wet, so be careful when you're removing it from the pack to prevent the essence from dripping! :) Like the Original one, this one needs some patting for the essence to sink in fully. It's not as sticky, and the "bouncy" effect is not as pronounced as well! :D

This doesn't really have a scent to it, but i can actually smell the alcohol in it! >.<

Packaging:


This mask comes in a box of 4! Each mask is invidivually packed in their respective foil packs:



This mask fits my face quite well! :D



Time Test:
10 - 15 minutes.

Price & Availability:

Usage:
This is perfect for a weekly treat or before an event to give your skin a lovely glow! :D


My $0.02:

I know i said that i won't purchase products with alcohol in it, but i really loved the Original one (and i got suckered in by the SALE word) so i decided to try this out too! :D

Like the original one, this moisturizes quite well (not as well as the former, but still quite well! lol!! XD). It also brightens up my face beautifully! :D

This is how i look after using this:


Sorry for the weird looking expression... i just woke up! :P

Super brightened face!! I really like it!! :D

All in all methinks that this is a really good sheet mask, but would be even better without the alcohol in it! I might repurchase though, because I really liked this! :D
