Garnier Vitamin C Anti Fatigue Ampoule Face Sheet Mask

I’m not usually a user of sheet masks, so I wasn’t sure what I was getting into. I really enjoyed that it felt nice and cool on my face, but getting it to sit right was an absolute pain, around the eyes it was a nightmare. if you have issues with things being too close to your eyes, you’ll hate this. I left it on for the recommended time, and lightly massaged the remaining product into my skin. It left my skin feeling sticky (maybe a good primer for foundation) and I noticed no other differences in my skin. I did have a great time freaking my family out while wearing it, but with no noticed benefits and the fact I found it impossible to relax while wearing it, I wouldn’t use it again.

I was sent this mask to review, it was a sheet mask so I was excited to try it. It applies easily to your face and stays on well. I kept the mask on for 5 minutes as advised. It has a strong fruity scent which I found overpowering and didn’t like. After removing the mask my skin felt clean however it didn’t make much difference other then that. I found no reduced dullness. It was good to try out but I wouldn’t use this product again.

I was very excited to try this mask as it sounded amazing, reduces signs of dullness and tiredness - Yes Please!

First of all I love the size of the packaging of this face-mask it is approx half the size of a standard face-mask. Making it great to take away and easier to store. Even though it is in a small packet it is the standard sheet mask size.

The mask was evenly distributed with product and quite wet, once applied it was just a waiting game to see the results! It recommended to 'let the mask infuse your skin for 5min.' Once I removed the mask I massaged the excess residue into my skin as directed.

Once removed I felt the residue was very sticky and it left my skln feeling super tacky for a long period even after I had massaged it into my skin. I did not like how it felt afterwards and it did take a while for my skin to feel like its regular self.

My skin definitely looked dewy and fresh straight afterwards, however I think it was more of the fact that it had left that residue on my skin. The next day I didn't really see any improvements and I had woken up with a couple of pimples around the crease of my nose, which isn't something I regularly get.

This product did not wow me away compared to other sheet masks on the market and I really did not like the tacky feeling it left on my skin.

I always have to giggle at my self when I have a mask on, so does my partner. Right let’s get down too it!!

Did it transform my skin ? Hmmmm no but I did like the way it made my skin feel so soft after. I still looked tired after but I feel like maybe I needed more than one mask too notice a difference?

I definitely wish that over time garnier will go a bit more natural with their products.

I have sensitive skin and felt okay with this! But apart from my skin feeling soft I would say I really didn’t see results. I’d still recommend to others because it could work for them.

I was very interested in trying this face mask as I know that vitamin c has so many benefits for our skin. When I opened the packet it smelt amazing! It smelt like pineapple and tropical fruit (almost good enough to eat).

I applied the face mask as per instructions. It went on well and it did not cause any skin irritation at all which is great as my skin can be sensitive to new products. I left the mask on for 5 minutes and then took it off.

I can safely say that my skin looked more awake and less tired. The downfall to me is that I did not like how it left my skin feeling - sort of sticky. It stayed like that all day. I applied makeup a few hours after I had used the mask and it made my foundation all patchy and I noticed all of a sudden my skin become oily, very oily and I don’t like that at all.

This mask is a great idea with potential benefits, perhaps it doesn’t suit my skin. It’s just not for me unfortunately.

I'm a big fan of sheet masks and usually use at least one a week to give my skin a hydration boost after sitting in an air conditioned environment all week. I like the packing on this mask, its compact and the message is clear what kind of mask it is and what it aims to do. The mask itself is easy to unfold and sturdy (nothing worse than trying to unfold a mask thats too thin and keeps ripping), the scent that is infused into the serum is quite over powering and once on my face was quite intense which I didn't like. After removing the mask my skin felt nice, hydrated and plump however the feeling did not last long and my skin felt like normal within a few hours. All up its a nice cheap and cheerful mask for something fun but there are much better masks on the market which have longer lasting results for a slightly higher price.

I LOVE sheet masks, but this one just didn't really do it for me.

The small packet is great for the environment, but it means the slippery yet sticky mask is folded a million times. And unfolding it is a blooming nightmare.

Once unfolded this fits well and molds to your face. It doesn't slip around despite being slathered to excess in serum.

It feels instantly cooling and is super refreshing, I definitely buy into the 'anti fatigue' ange. However it left me feeling covered in sticky product - the next morning I could still feel the product on my skin, which I did not like.

I love Garnier sheet masks but this isn't one I'd go out of my way to buy again/

First of all the packaging really impressed me - for such a small sachet it has so much information on it. It outlines the product, what's in it and how the ingredients work, plus suggests when to use the product. Vitamin C is everywhere at the moment so I was excited to try a product containing it, but I was a bit hesitant about the pineapple - I had a feeling that pineapple might be too strong for my facial skin.

It was nice and easy to open (the top came off easily in one tear). The mask definitely looked concentrated - it was soaked in the formula and the pineapple scent hit me straight away. It was a pleasant, natural scent. It lingered while the mask was on, which I enjoyed.

I applied it at about 5pm. I wiped my bare face with micellar water to start with to ensure that my skin was clean, then applied the mask. The mask was cool and pleasantly tingly. It fit my face pretty nicely and since it was so juicy it was easy to smooth down onto my skin. The coolness lasted the whole five minutes and for a few minutes after application, which was nice.

Massaging the excess product (as the packet instructed) felt good but after a few minutes the tingling started to feel quite intense. My skin looked glossy but the tingling was making it feel tight and I didn't know whether I should put any products like moisturiser on top (the sachet didn't say either).

I am not sure if I will purchase the mask going forward - my skin was definitely not dull after the mask but I feel like pineapple might be too intense for my facial skin. My face didn't go red but it felt tingly and tight for about an hour - I don't believe your skin should need to feel tingly or tight to know that a product is working. After this, it felt slightly tight for the rest of the evening but the tingling subsided so I felt relieved by that.

I didn't put anything else on my skin that night - when I went to bed my skin felt slightly tacky. The next morning, the glossy look had subsided and a cleanse removed what was left of the residual product. My skin looked a bit brighter than normal, but I wouldn't say it looked noticeably better.

While I wouldn't purchase this particular mask, I love that the masks can be purchased as single sachets and I would like to try other options in the range as they look like they contain slightly more soothing ingredients.

I appreciate the packaging size of this mask, it’s about half the size of a lot of the other sheet masks I’ve tried (a little less for the landfill is better right?) with just as much product saturation on the mask. The mask was very easy to unfold without tearing, applied smoothly to the contours of my face and didn’t feel stretchy or like it would slide off. I definitely agree that my skin felt really hydrated and revived after wearing for a bit over 5 minutes but the scent was a bit overwhelming. When the pack is opened the scent is really sweet, kind of fruity & floral however, when it’s on the face it becomes a bit much and has a chemical smell kind of like hairspray. I would definitely repurchase on sale for very occasional use.

I've done a fair amount of sheet masks in my time, especially in the era of lockdowns, so I'm quite fussy. This was a nice option in that it only sits on your face for 5 mins, so awesome to use before work or going out, or simply if you're time-poor. It smelt nice – but wasn't as pineapple-y as I was hoping.

After 5 mins of having the mask on my face, it did feel good. I felt more hydrated and dewy which was nice. The only thing I didn't like was the residue left afterward. I massaged it into my face as per the package instructions, but it stuck around for a good 5-10 mins afterwards and felt quite sticky. I had to put a layer of moisturiser on over the top to have a suitable base to put makeup on.

All in all I think I would rather buy the cheapie sheet masks from Mecca that doesn't leave a sticky residue at the end, but this is a nice option to grab from the supermarket.
