STARSKIN

I received this awesome product in my Ipsy glam bag plus subscription last month it took me a little while to get to it and now that I have I wish I had 20 of these! STARSKIN - Close-Up Bio-Cellulose Firming Face Mask COST $17 @ Sephora FOR JUST ONE!!😱 A firming bio cellulose facemask packed with awesome serum complex. Contains coconut fruit extract, (not the same as coconut 🥥 Oil...has revitaling and energizing affects as well as some smoothing and hydrating properties.  Suitable for all skin types a slight temporary redness may occur and is normal. Says so on the package...  Cruelty free and vegan. MY EXPERIENCE 🙌🏻🥰 I have never used a sheet mask quite like this one. It was pretty different all around. Start with a cleansed face open up the package, and reach in and get some of the serum on your fingertips and gently distribute it evenly on your face before you even apply the mask. Then when you open up the sachet you have to remove the white protective layer, then you lay the mask on your face, then you gently pull off the second protective layer which was really really sturdy material. I almost thought it was plastic but I don’t think it was. This mask adhered to my face probably quicker than any other sheet mask I had used. It’s like it wanted to just cling to me. After I had smoothed everything out I went to sit down and let it chill for 20 minutes. After about 5 minutes, the mask (to the touch with fingertips) adhered so well it was almost like I had a silicone face it was so strange! After my time was up I peeled the mask off and patted in all the extra serum. My skin felt nourished and rejuvenated and it did feel slightly tighter not a lot but I could feel a slight difference. That’s why I wish I had like 20 of these!!! There was no discomfort and the scent was so fine you could barely even tell what it was. ❤️This was one of my most enjoyable sheet mask experiences yet. My only complaint is that it’s $17 for something that’s going to be thrown in the trash in 20 minutes. Yes I know I’m getting some great serum on my face and it feels amazing.. I just don’t know 😂

My daily skincare routine is full of hydration, nourishment, and gentle exfoliation. It keeps my skin looking plump and smooth and I love dedicating even just a few minutes to just being with myself every morning and night. In addition to my daily routines, I have a Saturday routine that ties in with my day of relaxation and self care. During my time in college, I’ve always tried to dedicate Saturdays to myself. Incorporating a fun skincare routine into my Saturdays is a newer development, but it really elevates my day. I love spending the day with fresh, dewy skin and think it’s so peaceful to just sit on my couch with a sheet mask on, scrolling through TikTok. Keep reading for more details on my favorite weekend routine: 1. Cleanse - OSEA - Ocean Cleanser or ACURE - Resurfacing Glycolic & Unicorn Root Clenser I like to start my Saturday routine with a cleanser I don’t usually use, just to change it up a little. Recently, I’ve been using up two samples from my Allure Beauty Box and I really like them both! The Osea cleanser smells so good and is really creamy and hydrating and the Acure cleanser exfoliates really gently and leaves my skin feeling super clean 2. Exfoliating peel - The Ordinary - AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution The fan-favorite chemical peel from The Ordinary, of course! If my skin is especially wonky, I’ll use this over my whole face. I like that it controls my pores and gets rid of dead skin, it’s very versatile! If my skin looks really good for the most part, I’ll just put it on my nose and chin to get my pores and dark spots specifically 3. Hyaluronic acid serum - The Ordinary - Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Right after I rinse the peel off and while my skin is still damp, I rub a couple drops of this hyaluronic acid on my face. I do this to lock in the first bit of moisture and to prep my face to absorb my next step 4. Sheet mask - I like to use soothing or hydrating masks on Saturday to calm my skin down after the intensity of the exfoliating peel. Pictured are a few of my favorites that I have right now 5. Moisturizer - belif - The True Cream-Moisturizing Bomb My favorite moisturizer ever, surprise! At the end of my routine, I apply this thicker moisturizing formula to lock in all the goodness. Sometimes I use belif - Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask as a little treat if I’m having an especially dry week or just want to make extra sure my skin is happy after I’m done 😌 6. Relax! Not a skincare product, but so vital nonetheless. Taking care of yourself and your mental health so important. Spend some time with yourself and just enjoy life! And that’s my Saturday skincare routine! Sometimes I do a different routine on Wednesdays if my skin is being finicky, so stay tuned for how I tackle more problem-specific products.

#STARSKIN - Cream de la Créme VIP Instantly Recovering Luxury Cream Coated Sheet Face Mask 0.63 oz[products]#[FiveStars] The Cream de La Creme luxury coated face mask features a double layer of sheets to maximize the products efficiency. The top layer is a shield (and is covered in a star design), while the second layer is a super-concentrated delivery system of “half a jar” of moisturizer. The description on the website states that this method allows you to “force feed dry and depleted skin.” I’m actually a huge fan of this double layer- it’s not messy or drippy, it doesn’t slide down my face; and the cocoa, tomato, and broccoli extract nourish my skin. This is a very pricy sheet mask at $15 a pop, but I would happily welcome more of these into my stash.

StarSkin Pink Cactus Mask This was everything I wanted in a mask, hydration and glowing skin and this delivered. First using a couple drops of the picky pear cactus oil then applying the sheet mask, I usually leave the mask on for a bit longer than usual, then pat in the excess product on the face into the skin. You can also use the rest of the oil on the face if you like, I didn’t feel I needed more oil and left my skin as is. I kept feeling my skin throughout the day and it felt super hydrated and looking in the mirror I could see a glow about it. Usually when I use sheet masks the hydration wears off a bit after a few hours not with this baby StarSkin had hydrated my face all day. Cactus is amazing for hydration and high in vitamin E. The prickly pear oil is high in fatty acids which help calm the skin of inflammation and redness, it also penetrates deep into the skin so it’s not leaving an greasy residue. There are so many benefit for this oil, helping brighten pigmentation, controlling acne oils, replenishing the skins moisture and dehydration. This is my third purchase of this sheet mask and I constantly come back for more. I try and savour as much as I can when using it because I love my skins outcome after using it
