This is a review of March’s box.  The above picture shows everything in this month’s box.

Since August, they have been putting everything in an Ipsy-like gold foil mailer rather than the signature box that they used to send.

The Face Shop The Solution Moisturizing Face Mask (~$3) – I have been eyeing these test tubes masks form TFS for a while. The blue version is the moisturizing variant. The main active ingredient is Ceramide for skin moisturizing. The sheet came out the packaging soaked with creamy essence. The fit and attachment were both really nice. I had it on for 20mins. My skin felt moisturized and smooth afterwards. I’m excited to try the other variants.

A’Pieu Pore Deep Clear Black Charcoal Mask (~$2) – Black masks are my favorites! I believe this is a new-ish mask from Apieu. The mask contains Charcoal which releases infrared rays, cleaning out all dirt and impurities sitting in your pores. Bamboo and witch hazel extract aid in pore reduction. The mask material is very soft, and the essence is unscented. I was really happy with the fit and attachment. After 20mins, my skin felt hydrated and smooth. There’s no tacky feeling left on my face. The mask retails for about $2. I would recommend this mask for oily and combination skin types. I think it’s an overall nice black mask.

Papa Recipe Bombee Honey Mask (~$2.50) – Papa Recipe’s honey masks are very popular in the Asian beauty world. This mask is their regular honey mask and one of my favorite honey masks from them. The sheet came out of the packaging soaked with sweet honey scented essence. My skin felt moisturize and plumped after 30mins masking session. It’s definitely a mask I’m going back to.

Nature Republic Real Nature Mask Sheet Olive (~$1.50) – NR’s Real Nature line is not new to me either, but I had not tried the olive variant before. Olive essence is a good anti-oxidant. It also has a moisturizing effect. The essence has a clean fruity scent. The sheet is very big on the sides like a lot of the Real Nature masks. The material is soft. My skin felt soft and moisturized after 20mins. I think it’s nice basic moisturizing mask.

A’Pieu Green Tea Milk One Pack (~$2) – This is also not new to me, but I’m still happy that they included this mask coz I LOVE it! I’ve tried and loved all the Milk One packs so far thanks to Piibu. This mask contains Milk Extract that hydrates skin and prevents further dryness, Green Tea Extract helps to soothe the skin and increases skin elasticity. I love the yummy milk scent of the creamy essence although it doesn’t smell like green tea. The sheet is soft and fits really nicely. My face felt smooth and soft after 30mins. Definitely a must-try mask if you haven’t!

Tonymoly Pureness 100 Propolis Mask Sheet Skin Soothing (~$1.50) –  I have tried the pearl and snail variants of this mask. The mask contains 100ppm propolis extract and Sodium Hyaluronate for skin soothing and hydrating. The mask is made with non-bleached 100% cotton sheet mask soaked in glacier water. The mask sheet is textured and soft. I saw little black particles on it which I remember seeing in the other variants of this mask. The sheet was soaked with honey-scented essence. I was happy with the fit and attachment. After 20mins, my skin felt plumped and smooth. My face was left with a matte finish which I love. The mask retails for about $2. I would recommend this mask for oily and combination skin types. I’m excited to try the other variants of this mask!

The Saem Natural-Tox Apple and Green Grape Mask Sheets (2 x ~$1.50) – OMG YAS! I’d been drooling over these masks FOREVER! How cute is the packaging?!

The apple mask contains 10,000ppm apple extracts along with lycopene, polyphenol, and organic acids to cleanse and purify the skin. It also works to brighten and tone up the skin. I could smell the super refreshing apple scent when I opened the packaging. The mask material is soft and textured. It didn’t really have any essence leftovers in the package. I’m pretty impressed with the attachment power since the sheet was not very wet. I could sense some cooling effect while the mask was on. After 20mins, my skin felt moisturized and refreshed. No tacky feeling left on my face. I didn’t notice too much of a brightening effect though. I would recommend this mask for all skin types and summer uses.

The green grapes mask contains 10,000ppm grape extracts for skin vitalizing and purifying. It has plant nutrition of chlorophyll, citric a, id and lutein, to clear the skin and return it into its original clear and healthy tone. The essence smells like grapes. The mask material is soft and textured. I’m pretty impressed with the attachment power since the sheet was not very wet. After 20mins, my skin felt smooth and moisturized. No tacky feeling left on my face.

I need to try all the variants of this mask!
