Too Cool for
School - Egg Cream Mask Pore Tightening
@rita
Hello
Beauties,
This week
we bring you the Egg Cream Mask Pore Tightening by Too Cool for School. As you
know, I have combo skin and some open pores, so I’m always looking for a good
pore tightening mask!
This time I
went to Sephora and as always, I was drawn to the Korean section. After some
time reading the back packaging, I decided to buy this mask.
To tell you
the truth I don’t know and never heard about this brand, but for what I saw,
they have some cool stuff (no pun intended)!
According
to the Sephora’s website this brand is ‘’Dedicated
to quality and creativity, the Korean brand brings together the latest skin
care and makeup trends with a diverse community of experimental artists. The
result? Innovative products, playful packaging, and a unique beauty
experience’’.
According
to the necessities, they have an Egg Cream Mask Firming (salmon), Pore Tightening
(blue) and Hydration (yellow).
They also
have an Egg Mousse Soap facial cleanser (that I really wanted to try) but in my
country, it’s unavailable.
But for now, let’s look at what they say about
the mask that I bought.
Which skin type is it good for?
✔ Oily
✔ Combination
(Great, I have a little bit of both)
It’s basically a pore diminishing
and tightening microfiber sheet mask with egg (that is known for his properties
in diminishing the look of pores) and vinegar extracts (that clarifies),
excellent for oiliness, enlarged pores and blemishes.
What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates
What else you need to know:
All Too Cool for School products are
not tested on animals and are hypoallergenic. Microfiber sheet has high
moisture retention rate and helps with the delivery of active ingredients and
hydration. Delicate ultra-fine microfiber is 100 times thinner than a strand of
hair to conform precisely to skin and maximize absorption of the active
ingredients.
I tried it and what I liked was
the fact that the mask adheres comfortable in the face (this is always a problem
for me in a sheet mask). I was a little apprehensive because it has vinegar,
but don’t worry, the smell isn’t strong. On the contrary, it’s pleasant.
When you take it off the package,
it’s easy to unfold and it’s saturated in a ton of product.
I followed the directions and first
it was required to freshen the skin with a toner after washing the face. Then
open the pouch and separate the mask sheet from the support and place it on the
face. Done!
According to the directions, the
mask should be on face for 10-20 minutes and then remove the sheet. I left it on
the face for 30 minutes (Netflix distracted me, what can I say?).
And finally, I gently tapped my face
to let the remaining contents to be absorbed into the skin. I noticed that the
mask was not dry. On the contrary, I think that if I let it on my face for more
10 minutes it probably would come off still damp. This is good!
In the first hours, the skin was so fresh!
I tried on a hot day and when I took it off I noticed how cold my skin was.
Are my pores more tightening? I
don’t really know. But I see my skin more uniform, firming, soft and hydrated.
I really see a big difference!
But let’s talk about the cons. The
stickiness after a while. I felt my skin so oily! At night, I needed to wash it
off but even then, I felt oil in my skin. I don’t know if this happens because
I left more time that they recommend or if it’s my skin reaction to this mask.
VERDICT: Am
I going to buy another one? I think I will, but this time I will follow the
10-20 minutes rule. Despite the oiliness, I felt a good difference in the
appearance of my skin. Until today I had never seen my skin so beautiful.
It’s available at Sephora’s and costs $6.
