Review: Boots Sheet Mask

 

When it comes to skincare and pampering my self there is nothing more than a good face mask. Sure the standard face masks are brilliant and I love the results but lately I've really been enjoying sheet masks. And Boots have recently released a collection of sheet masks that brilliant.

The Boots Ingredients Sheet Masks are a range of masks individually designed to aid different skin types. There are five masks in total ranging from hydration to clarifying.

 You have the Safflower and Peony Mask to help aid skin's youthful appearence.

 Then there is the Lotus Flower and Tiger Lily Mask to help with skin's radiance.

There is the Charcoal and Willow Bark Mask which cleanses and purify's the skin.

 There is the Super Hyaluronic which helps boost skin's hydration levels.

And finally you have the Rooibos Mask that helps to energise and revitalise skin.

These are a thin cotton sheet masks that are drenched in serum. Each one is designed to aid a particular skin issue or skin type. They fit well against the skin unlike some sheet masks out there and there's no worries of getting any product in your eye as the pre cut slots are cut large enough to fit comfortably on the skin. And once it's smoothed into place they do no budge. You can bend down, carry on with housework or even just lay back and relax and they won't shift in the slightest.

Most of these masks you leave on for 15-20 minutes. There will be excess serum on your skin when you take the mask off but you can just rub that it in or leave it to soak into skin naturally. And that's when you'll start to see the results. If you use the Super Hyaluronic mask which contains Hyaluronic Acid your skin will feel instantly hydrated and plump once you remove it. Whilst specific skin types can use certain masks in this range, there is nothing in any of these that would stop you from using all of the masks.

Overall these are really good masks. My personal favourites are the Super Hyaluronic and the Safflower and Peony. Whilst they are saturated in product there was no dripping or unnecessary spillages. They fit comfortably against the skin and didn't bunch up or peel away. And the best bit is that they only cost £2.50 and can always be found on a save off or 2 for £3 offer in all Boots stores.
