an unscented evening soak, foot baths, people who skip perfumed bath products
Twenty single-use sheet masks in four types – ten quiet minutes that fit inside a 20-minute routine.
A sheet mask is the easiest mask to fit into a short routine: nothing to mix, nothing to rinse and a wear time that is printed on the pack. This Mediheal set holds 20 single-use masks, five each of four types – Collagen, Tea Tree, Vita and Hyaluronate. The maker’s instructions are short: apply to clean skin, leave on for 10 to 20 minutes, take it off and pat in whatever essence is left.
What the listing does not give is an ingredient list, the sheet material or the sheet size, so the sachet itself is the place to check if your skin reacts to fragrance or plant extracts. Four formulas in one box is a good way to find a favorite – and a gamble if one of them does not agree with you.
Tip: Try a new type on a quiet evening first, and take the mask off and rinse if it stings – freshly steamed skin can be touchier than usual.
