Skin Republic 2 Step Hyaluronic Acid + Collagen Facial Mask

 Hello Lovelies,

Today I’m going to talk about Skin Republic’s 2 Step Hyaluronic Acid + Collagen Facial Mask. The 2 step includes a scrub and a sheet mask. Microdermabrasion exfoliant removes dry, dull skin cells and allows the skin to more effectively absorb the serum from the mask. The second step is an anti-aging facial treatment sheet mask containing Hyaluronic Acid and Collagen to smooth, nourish and promote a more youthful appearance. Skin Republic is continually exploring the latest natural ingredients to develop new and innovative skincare products.

Packaging
I like the no-fuss packaging, which comes printed with all the information you need. It’s easy to open and use.

How to use:
Cleanse skin, remove mask from packaging, unfold and place it on your face using the eye areas to align correctly. Remove after 10-20 minutes and gently pat for better absorption. Do not rinse.

Texture:
The mask is slimy as its heavy with serum.

My experience:

These masks are so easy to use and are perfect for the scorching summer’s when you want to relax at home.

The mask fits the shape of my face well without needing to tug and refit every few minutes. Each mask comes heavily soaked in serum and once I’ve popped the mask on, there’s plenty of serum left in the packet. I apply them on my neck, decolletage and even arms and legs.

As the skin has a 4 week regeneration period, the masks are more effective when used twice a week for the first month and then as required. Apply just before bedtime for best results.

The mask is drenched in serum, however the serum doesn’t drip and stays in the mask. Although, if you want to reuse it just fold the mask and there is enough serum left in the mask for one light application over the face. You do feel a nice cooling/ tingling sensation when you first put the mask on. Taking it off, you notice the mask is not as heavy as it was when you put on, the serum completely soaks into your skin and there isn’t excess serum left on your face to massage in.

There's a whole range of masks available, targeting all sorts of skin concerns (one for blemishes, one for brightening, one with collagen, etc). They even have masks for your hands and feet, which sound interesting too. All the masks are hypo-allergenic and dermatology tested, and designed to give you salon quality results in the comfort of your own home without the spa treatment price tag..

Skin Republic Platinum Lift

If you are a first timer with sheet face masks like me, then I'm sure you will be apprehensiveness about a 'ready to wear' mask. Sheet face masks involve very little effort from your end. All you need to do is to put on the face mask and relax.


I used the Skin Republic Platinum mask. For starters,Skin Republic is a scientifically formulated, dermatologist tested hypo-allergenic range combining the latest advances in skin care with nature’s restorative properties. 

The Skin Republic sheet face masks are incredibly effective in delivering nutrients due to the close and continuous contact with the skin. They have seven sheet face masks which are infused with concentrated serum targeting six primary skin concerns: anti-aging, firming and lifting, regenerating and revitalising, brightening, repairing and restoring, cleansing and pore refining. The Platinum Lift mask reduces the signs of aging, it's rich in antioxidants, firms, tones and lifts your skin. It contains Nano-Platinum, Trehalose and Pomegranate that have antioxidant capabilities and assist in firming and lifting the skin, enhancing its elasticity and texture. 

 The instructions say to cleanse and tone your skin first, and then applying the mask leaving it on for 15-20 minutes while resting. Any excess serum left in the pouch can with benefit be applied to the neck, décolleté and hands, which i must say is super amazing. 

 My first impression was that of a gooey, slimy mask. The mask is soaked with serum which instantly gets absorbed into your skin. The mask is a little tricky to put onto the face, as it is a little larger than it really needs to be. However, the area for the nose is smaller (or i have a bigger nose than average). And as it is soaking with the serum, you also have to be careful not to get this into your eyes. Once you got it on, you can just sit back, or ideally lie back and relax until it is time to remove it. You need not rinse your face post removing the mask. So it's less work compared to your regular masks. I did feel mummified, and it was difficult to keep the mask on, as my husband was in constant splits! 


The mask does have a scent that you can only love. And as soon as you’ve folded out the mask and applied it to the face, you can feel the lovely coolness of the serum working its magic on the skin. I did feel that my skin was soft and supple, but didn't notice any major changes. However the next day I did get a few compliments, about my skin. 


All in all it is a great mask and I do love how it makes my skin feel so soft and smooth and glowing afterwards. I loved it and I'm all geared up to try the rest as well. 

 Do let me know your feedback on the same.
