Garnier Vitamin C Tissue Mask

This tissue mask was so simple yet so effective. I loved how easy it was to apply, although it had to be wiggled around a bit to ensure full coverage. The smell was nice and not overpowering. It was definitely a relaxing experience, I waited until the kids were asleep, a nice drink was in hand and love island was on the telly. The added extra of this mask made this quiet moment so much better. After using my skin felt smooth and refreshed. I would definitely use this again as a pamper moment, but prefer something that could be used many times as apposed to single use.

The face mask was in a nice packet, easy enough to get out. It was slippery and a bit slimy but is smelt really nice. It was very cooling on the face, and you do need to check in a mirror that it's all unfolded and even over the face. I left it on for the full 15 minutes and once removed rubbed the remaining into my face. My face feels nice and smooth. I will definitely be doing this again. A great start to the weekend.

I am a big face mask user and try to use them at least once a week. So I was excited to try the garnier one as it claims to have a whole bottle of serum in each pack. I found the mask easy to put on and fitted my face just fine. It was moisturising and my skin did look super plump after. I wouldn’t call this my holy grail mask as results were pretty short lived but it’s great just before a night out.

Cute packaging of this wee mask that i found quite eye catching. Was pleasantly surprised to find the scent was subtle not over powering. On application the mask itself was felt quite saturated which was a bit odd but settled after time. Definitely felt like my skin was absorbing serum and didn't have too much to remove afterwards. I enjoyed using the mask and find my skin felt plumped and seemed more vibrant. Will use again.

This sheet mask is good at hydrating the skin but I’m not sure how much of a brightening effect it can have with just one application.

It comes folded in the packet and was easy to unfold and place on my face. The mask was a thick, plump material and did not have a plastic backing. The mask is more of a round shape and fit my face well - I have a low forehead and wide face and it covered everything perfectly. It was easy to smooth on and adjust.

The serum is a thick milky consistency and has a faint fresh/citrusy fragrance. There was plenty of leftover serum in the pack to apply to my neck, chest and arms.

The mask stayed on well while I relaxed in bed for about 20 minutes. It was still very wet when I removed it. The serum remained on my skin but absorbed nicely after patting it in for a few minutes. It left my face feeling supple and plump. It was slightly sticky but did not bother me as it just felt very moisturising.

I don’t expect miracles from sheet masks but it does a good job in general. The brightening effect may be more noticeable with regular use.

I really liked this. I used it after waking up and feeling quick dry on my face and wanted makeup to sit better. It certainly hydrated and I was able to rub in excess serum to make my face even more glowing. I would purchase again. I do really enjoy sheet masks and I’ll add this to the collection

I’m not sure I entirely understand the point in tissue masks. Surely just applying serum achieves a very similar goal without the sitting around with a wet, cold tissue on your face? I went into this a little skeptical (obviously). The mask itself is so drenched in serum unfolding it alone is a mission in itself. The second mission came in the form of trying to line up the eye, nose and mouth holes as best I could without getting serum in my eyes and mouth. It was cold, slimy and generally uncomfortable. The mask did stay in place for the 15mins but I was constantly feeling like there was serum dripping down the side of my face and neck. Removing the mask is easy enough, just whip that sucker off. But the amount of serum left behind is…a lot. I had to wipe most off with a cotton pad as it was way too much to just rub in. The drying/soaking process has a horrible sticky situation in the middle, and when it finally dried I did not feel at all hydrated or ‘brighter’. I could feel my face become slimy the next day as I washed it, I do not have this with any other serum I have used so feel that this one just sat on top of the skin, not doing anything. I would not use this mask again, I saw absolutely no benefit and found the entire experience uncomfortable. Not to mention the environmental impact on single use, tissue masks.

My skin was definitely glowing after using this mask and it looked very dewy afterwards. I did it in the morning to hydrate my skin, it was very lush and one of the better tissue masks I've done.
