Hey guys, I hope all is well, I have a full review of the 111 Skin Rose Gold Brightening Facial Treatment Mask got in my ASOS face and Body Advent Calendar. I love sheet masks so I was very happy to get this in my calendar.
111 Skin Rose Gold Brightening Facial Treatment Mask was founded by Dr Alexandrides of Harley Street London. The mask promises to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reinforce skin’s barrier function. It also nourishes the skin and the 24K Gold in the formula helps to brighten the skin
Experience
This is a gel textured sheet mask and I don’t remember ever using something similar. I am used to ‘cloth’ sheet masks. The mask feels cooling on the skin however compared to ‘traditional’ sheet masks, it feels slippery so I had some difficulties putting it on. I left it on for about 10- 15 mins. it’s been formulated without silicones, parabens and paraffin.
Afterwards, my skin felt nice but not as hydrating as I thought it would be or would like. The mask doesn’t leave my skin sticky but there is a slight film it leaves on the skin. There is also a very subtle shimmer the mask leaves on the skin. The eye & lip patches I used didn’t make a difference. My skin had a subtle glow to it. I thought my subsequent serums would ‘pil’ because of the ‘shiny’ film this leaves but that didn’t happen. My skin also felt slightly itchy.
What I find quite unique about the mask is that they have the cut out parts as well i.e. eye area and lip area so I also used these( I’m not sure if you are supposed it but why not?) the mouth cut out area is also quite large which prevents the mask from sticking down around the chin area. I also had some difficulties with the mask staying in place around the jawline on the right side of my face.
Verdict
This mask retails for £20 and I honestly think it’s not worth that much. I find it difficult to believe any single-use product when they claim they reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. They probably mean this along the lines of plumping the skin so that the wrinkles and fine lines appear reduced however this didn’t even do that much hydration and plumping anyway. I wasn’t hoping for that result anyway as I don’t have any wrinkles but for those that may get the sheet mask for this purpose, you may feel slightly cheated. My skin also felt slight itchy afterwards, I’m not sure what that is due to
This came in my advent calendar but it’s not something I would go out to purchase.
