Product & Shop
I was sent this Elizavecca Milky Piggy 24K Gold Waterdew Snail Mask Pack Sheet in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts are my own, as always.
Elizavecca has been developing and selling products for more than 20 years. Elizavecca isn't a new brand for me. I've tried a few products of theirs, including plenty of their assorted Power Ringer masks, Green Piggy Collagen Jella Pack Pig Mask, Elizavecca Donkey Piggy Steam Cream Mask Pack, and Elizavecca Kangsi Pack earlier. Elizavecca products are manufactured and sold by MIZ Tread Co., LTD.
The mask claims to contain 24k gold and snail mucin filtrate along with hazel extra and galactomyces fermentation filtrate which can moisturize the skin in addition to healing and calming skin problems.
Ingredients and Texture
Ingredients: Water, Butylene Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Hyaluronic Acid, Betaine, Allantoin, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Snail Secretion Filtrate (1000ppm), Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, Propolis Extract, Cornus Officinalis Fruit Extract, Alcohol, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin, Sodium Citrate, Adenosine, Fragrance, Ubiquinone, Colloidal Gold (CI77480)
The only product showing up as a possible acne trigger is butylene gylcol on cosdna, though it does contain citrus extract and snail secretion, which some people may react badly to. In addition, it also has galactomyces ferment filtrate and propolis extract as well as alcohol. There's plenty of notable ingredients in this mask in addition to the ones mentioned. snail is good for healing while galactomyces works as an antioxidant that can also help brighten the skin tone. The propolis acts as an antibacterial and antioxidant and can aid in anti-aging treatments in addition to being moisturizing. Adenosine helps reduce wrinkles. Gold is supposedly able to be antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, but there's no scientific background to it, so it's just in it for the fun-factor. XD There's really a healthy amount of good ingredients in this mask, which surprised me a little since the price is pretty good!
I'm more than a little disappointed to find that this mask isn't actually gold. Lol. Probably too much to ask for. The essence is a watery gel that adheres well to the cotton sheet mask, though there's enough in the package for my body as well. It's an odd cotton material though, cause I actually really liked it. I usually prefer thinner fabric on my masks, but this was really comfortable.
It doesn't really absorb all the essence enough to not drip all over me. I find the cutting perfect, to be honest. ^^ Fragrance is added, so this mask smells pretty nice, but the scent isn't too overwhelming and disappears upon application.
Performance
I used this mask while my skin was acting up due to a particularly harsh face cleanser that turned my skin , inflammed, flaky and itchy. >.< This good is good for acne/sensitive skin, which is what I was dealing with when I used the mask and I was pretty impressed with the effects! The mask stayed moist for an hour after application and I was almost sad to remove it.
I yolo-ed it with this snail mask because it's too shiny to pass up. I sometimes react badly to masks containing snail and I've actually tried some other Elizevecca (Power Ringer Masks) and weren't particularly impressed, so expectations weren't too high for this mask. However, I'm happy to report that I'm really pleased with this mask!
My skin was much less inflamed after using the mask and my skin was somewhat brightened! The snail didn't react badly to my skin, which is awesome. ^^ I also found that the red spots on my forehead was less so and my skin wasn't as itchy. All in all, it's a pretty great mask with really good ingredients at a decent mask. What's not to love?
