Garnier Hydra Bomb Green Tea Tissue Mask Review

I received this product to trial and was very excited when it arrived. It was much bigger on the outside which I didn't expect and really quite substantial on the inside too. I loved the freshness both in look and feel. It was definitely not the easiest to apply but it did feel lush and decadent once I worked it out. I liked the smell and feel which felt like a real treat and I think it would be fabulous on a hot day to indulge with. The mask was a bit fiddly for me but I am not used to masks that cover the whole face, I usually use ones you rub on. There was also lots left over on my skin.

I loved the result and would definitely try again now I sort of know how it all works.

I was excited to give this mask a go, my skin is a mix of oily and dry so I was excited to see what this could do for me! First observation was there is so much liquid in the mask, all the better for hydrating! It comes folded in quarter, after gently unfolding it it’s time to put it on. I found it fit a little funny as I tried to get it in place, the holes were quite narrow around the eyes and mouth but fit well enough, it was also quite long for my face. However, once you peel the protective layer off it’s very easy to mold the mask into a comfortable fit. I found it quite difficult to get the protective layer off, once I managed to get it lifting, it lifted the whole mask off my face as I peeled it off so I very gently had to maneuver it all back into place. After 15mins it was time to come off, I like that given how much moisture was in the mask, it doesn’t dry out and stick to your skin it’s just slides right off leaving a layer of moisture goodness on your skin. It suggests either rubbing this left over product in or removing it with a clean cotton pad. I chose to rub it in since I was just heading to bed anyway but I did find it left a sort of sticky layer on my face, which felt a little jelly like when I washed my face the following morning, so I would probably use a cotton pad next time if I weren’t heading straight to bed. My skin felt so good, and not just after doing the mask, it felt great the next day, and even more amazing after applying moisturizer the following few days, it just soaked up all the moisture and felt super soft and smooth. I’m not convinced it reduced visible pores or anything but maybe I just need to do a few more! All in all, this was a really lovely mask, it definitely deserves the name hydra bomb! My skin felt great for days following.

This little packet of wonderful came out to me to review last week. On receiving, I had a good look at the instructions and waited for a fairly quiet evening when I could crack it open. As I have pretty sensitive skin, I was skeptical straight off that it would do anything but was also excited to see how it would go. Taking it out of the sachet is a bit tricky but if you dont mind getting a bit of gloop on your fingers then you are all good. Un-folding it was pretty good, probably due to the blue film that is on the mask I would say, and this helped to get it un-folded without any tears, yay! Next, I put it on my face and smoothed it out before removing the blue film. It felt lovely, cool and refreshing, a nice surprise. Setting my timer for 15 mins, I sat back with a cuppa and waited... When the timer went off, I really felt like I didnt want to remove it as it still felt nice and cool. Removing was not a problem and I rubbed as much into my face, neck, hands as possible before finishing off with a cotton round to mop up any residue. My face definitely felt refreshed and hydrated and really smooth. I'd be keen as to get a couple more to try out over a week or so to see if it made more difference to my pores as one application I think is too soon to tell. Overall, it did a lovely refreshing, relaxing job which I was pretty pleased about, especially at this time of year when your face is extra dry and needs some hydration help. Lovely product and I will be looking out for it at my local supermarket for sure! PS.. a great price too!

I was having a bad day, and so in a grumpy mood I picked this up from the supermarket to cheer me up. It was on special for $3.50 which was a nice bonus.

The one thing I dislike about tissue masks is the wastage. The amount of product left in the packet and in the mask itself after you've finished applying it makes me feel a bit ripped off. So I always squeeze out the excess onto my decollatage.

The scent of this mask was super refreshing and light. I felt instantly calmer as I applied the cool mask to my face. The shape and size of the mask was a bit too small around the eyes and mouth, so I had to concentrate really hard to not get any product in my eyes or mouth. But this is probably the case with most tissue masks.

After initially removing the product I dabbed the excess into my skin and instantly noticed how plump and hydrated my skin felt.

The next morning was where I was really impressed. My skin still felt super hydrated and I felt naturally radiant. I wouldn't say that it mattified my skin, but I wasn't fussed about that.

The hydration certainly lasted 24 hours, leaving me one happy customer! I will definitely repurchase next time I need a little pick-me-up.

I'm a big fan of the Garnier tissue masks as an on-budget treat and was excited to try this one. It wasn't too soppy but I appreciated the blue protective film which adds a bit of stability when applying the thin tissue mask to your face. The green tea is a really nice, natural scent and it was lovely to take 15 minutes to relax with the mask on. Afterwards I massaged the excess product into my face and neck per the instructions and it more or less absorbed without stickiness. My skin definitely looked and felt like it had a hydration boost immediately afterwards but I'm not convinced that it lasted an entire 24 hours - probably just until I showered the following morning!

Loving this product even if I've only used it once. I was chosen for the trial team to try out this wonderful product of Garnier. I got the one in green packaging which is suited for Oily/Combination skin.

I applied the product for 20 minutes instead of 15 to make my skin absorb the product more. The product states that it will intensely rehydrate your skin, which is so true because it instantly rehydrate my face right after using it; also it states that it purifies and mattifies the skin, this is a bit tricky because your face will be all wet after using this product but I noticed the next day when I woke up that my face is matte! I usually wake up with an oily face so this is really amazing for me. Lastly, it states that it visibly reduces pores and imperfection, I'm quite not sure about this because I don't think it reduced my pores and imperfections so maybe that part is applicable to continued use of the product.

I will definitely buy this product again although it's a bit expensive than the other brands out in the market, simply because of its effectiveness to my skin.

I was skeptical about it when I pulled it out of the packet but it's really amazing, you can feel it working on the face and the smell is quite lovely. 1 out of 2 things is that it seems quite big for the face (i have maybe what 1 would call a round face) and fave feels a bit tacky after rubbing the access in but definitely not feeling disappointed in this product and will be buying it especially to try after I've had a walk, shower and cleanse.

The packaging for the product was very nice. It was well labelled. The pictures of the leaves on there were very nice. It makes me feel like it's very hydrating with the liquid on the packaging. It's great that it lasts for 24 hours. The mask looked great, a nice white colour and it was very easy to apply to my skin. After use my skin felt great! It was also very easy to take out of the pouch. A great product!

This mask is abosultely fantastic. No fussing around with a tube of product, or having to wash off a well-stuck product from your face or peeling off a painful mask. This was so easy to apply, easy to take off, smelt great and provided my face with an amazing cooling and refreshing feeling whilst on. When I removed the mask, my face felt very supple and refreshed. It removed excess oil, and prepared my face well to apply makeup on top. I'm unsure if it's a coincidence but since using the mask, my skin has become drasticly clearer too. I'd use this product again and i'd certainly try more from the range.

I loved the Garnier Green Tea Tissue Mask!

To begin with, I found it a little tricky to unfold the mask, but once I got the edge it was smooth sailing. It was super easy to apply, and the protective cover on top was easy to remove once I had applied the mask to my face. I did find that I had to spend a little bit of time positioning the mask properly as the eye, nose and mouth holes were not located in the best place for my face size. But it was simple enough to position the mask in a way that worked for me. It also contoured smoothly the my face without having to worry about the edges of the mask, and it stayed firmly in place.

The mask itself was beautifully refreshing with a pleasant and relaxing aroma. 15 minutes of pure bliss! I found it especially cool and refreshing on a hot day.

Upon removing the mask I massaged the excess gel into my skin, and then removed the excess with a cotton pad. My skin was left feeling cool, smooth, hydrated, and my skin tone was visibly clearer.

I highly recommend this product for a luxurious pampering experience. I cannot wait to see the results from continued use!
