[Review] Elizavecca Deep Power Ringer Mask Sheet - Tea Tree & Vita Deep

Price: $5 (~RM20)
(bought during BBcosmetic 50% discount. Use affiliated coupon: C10T190S3 for 8% off) 
Verdict: To be decided (only two masks tried so far) 
Repurchase: Maybe?

Price & Shop

I bought these from BB Cosmetic during their Facebook 50% off deal. It's sold for $11.03 for a pack of ten and is $10.14  after the 8% coupon code (C10T190S3) with free shipping, which is a pretty good deal. That's ~$1 per sheet mask. :) 

On the other hand, there are 10 sheet masks in the package, with no option to get just a specific type. Ten different sheet masks is a pretty risky deal, since there may be sheet masks that you love or hate with a vengeance. I hope there will be an option to get just one type of the mask in a pack of ten instead of ten different masks. As of right now, after testing out only two masks, I'm liking one and hating the other.  


Ingredients & Directions

I have no idea what's on these masks because everything is in korean, but I still have this up because the instructions found on on these sheet masks insist I wash my face with toilet water to prepare the texture of the skin. Honest!
I'll update this space with list of ingredients as soon as I get my hands on them. 

Fit & Texture


Texture and fit is just awful. The mask doesn't really cling to my face and the eye holes are like, legit power ranger level huge. Nobody has eyes that big, okay? I'm not stretching this or anything. It legit looked that big. Getting this to fit on my face took a little work, but actually wasn't impossible. It's just a lot more complicated than it should've been. 

It was soaked in essence, which helped getting it to stay on my face. Essence dripped from the mask in excess though. My neck was getting lots of love. ^^ 

Vita Deep Performance

The mask smells mildly citrusy, kinda nice. I enjoyed the smell. The moment I put this on my face, my skin started tingling a little. At first I thought, okay, this doesn't have tea tree in it, which is the only thing that made my skin tingle. And then, since the fit was so bad, I went to reach for my daiso silicone mask.

That was when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. Weird. The mask wasn't pink when I- bloody hell. I pulled this off and sure enough, my skin was blotchy, red, and very angry. Off it went. I smeared the lotion on my arm, but I had to wash that off too since it was turning sticky and anoying instead of sinking in. The only other mask my face reacted to so badly was the Guardian mask. 0 out of 10. Stupid bloody mask. I had to wash my face again after applying this mask, which is the last thing I wanted to do. I put my precious Benton Snail's Bee Essense prior to masking, damn you! T.T 

The ingredients I found are in Korean, so that didn't help me out any in terms of finding out what exactly triggered the redness.

Verdit: 0/10 
Repurchase: No!

Tea Tree Performance

Smells... medicinal. It wasn't too overwhelming, so I can't deduct marks from that. This tea tree, like the Holika Holika tea tree masks, tingles a little, but wasn't too bad. It was probably a bad choice to go from something that tingles from a bad reaction and something else that just tingles naturally. I kept checking to make sure my skin wasn't turning red because trauma- y'know? But nope. It's not too bad.

Texture was the same as the texture for Vita Deep, which was bad. I kept trying to find a way to make this fit my face, but it just felt like too much effort so I just allowed it to hang haphazardly. At about the 30 minute mark, the mask called it quits and fell off when I bent down to pick up something from the freezer. >.< It should've done it's magic by then though, so I was alright with that.  

Performance-wise, the mask was pretty moisturizing. Surprisingly, the pimples on my face were really calmed! It wasn't as inflammed and there was one pimple that was on the verge of popping and I swore this mask sort of forced it back down. Unfortunately, the effects were only temporary and the pimple returned with full force by the end of the day. :( It was nice while it lasted though! 

Pros 

  • Moisturizing and not sticky. 
  • Helps calm breakouts.

Cons

  • Fit is bad & too wide (-1) 

Verdit: 9/10 
Repurchase: Yes, but only if it's sold on it's own!
