Review: Skincare: Garnier Skin Naturals Light Whitening Infusion Tissue Mask
I was traveling all day yesterday the length and breadth of the country… ok its a slight exaggeration but I was on the road for most of the day under the hot sun (thank goodness I had my sunscreen applied liberally!). When I got home in the evening, I was dog tired. After my shower, my eyes fell on this Garnier Skin Naturals Light Whitening Infusion Tissue Mask I’d had on my dresser for a while.

I decided on a whim to try it to see what it was like. So, after cleansing my face, I opened up the foil pack and spread the mask on my face. Unfortunately, I cannot find any information about the Garnier Skin Naturals Light range online except for this old article. From what I can tell by an online search, the Garnier Light range is targeted at the Asian market where all whitening ranges are targeted.

I don’t take aspirin for headaches or pains - it isn’t common here in Malaysia where paracetamol is usually more popular. That said, I learnt of a useful tip of using aspirin as a facial mask and here is my recipe for the aspirin mask. Continue Reading >> Tip: Home Remedy: Make an Aspirin mask
Review: Skincare: Kanebo Impress Concentrate Mask N
I have been wanting to try something from the new Kanebo Impress line. I got my opportunity when I went for my regular facial and purchased the Kanebo Impress Concentrate Mask N.
The mask comes in a sealed foil pack with one Impress essence soaked paper mask inside it. When you open the foil packet, be careful because there is quite a lot of excess liquid.
The mask is a regular paper mask that you unfold and then apply onto your face. I find that chilling it in the fridge for a couple of minutes makes it feel more relaxing as its then very cool.
The essence has a slight scent that isn’t unpleasant. The texture has a slightly slimy feel to it, but in a good way. It feels nice and cool on the skin and you can leave it on for up to 20 minutes. After that, any excess liquid/essence can be used on your neck or arms so as not to waste it.
I found that my face felt awesomely soft after using this. It did feel rather sticky though and I found that rather off-putting. In an air-conditioned room however, it was nice because then your skin doesn’t feel dried out. I follow up with the usual toner and night moisturiser. The skin feels and looks glowy the next morning, which was great. I don’t know if the effects get better with more regular use though I would expect so.
One piece of mask retails at RM55 and a whole box of 6 is RM330. Pricey but I’d say it’s quite regularly priced for a product of this nature from a department store brand. Available at all Kanebo counters that carry the Impress line and all Kanebo beauty salons.
Pros: Feels nice, skin looks glowy
Cons: Scent, stickiness, expensive
