Review: B.liv Fine Line Stoppage Sheer off Crease Face mask

My love for face masks has always gone on and off on very weird reasons. As much as I loved starting with the regular mud face masks and peel-off face masks a couple of years back, I soon went in and out of my craze because of my sheer laziness. I could hardly pull myself up to apply a mask, let it dry for 15-20 minutes, not to mention the messiness it creates, and then spend another 5-10 minutes taking it off. Just writing it here made me feel tired about all the work that goes in it.

However, there came an easy solution for lazy souls like me - sheet face masks. I love the concept and when I was given a chance to review this new product from Cellinique that was a sheet face mask and offered such good and amazing results, I could hardly resist the temptation. And boy did it fare well? Let us check it out below:

My experience with this face mask

Each cloth/sheet mask comes in a separate packet. All I have to do is tear it open, take the mask out, place it on my face properly and then lie down listening to my favorite music for 30 minutes. The mask comes with holes for eyes, nose and lips. Though it is made up of standard size, I need to adjust it to fit my face properly, which hardly takes 1 minute or so.

I must say this is the best face mask I've ever tried till date that does deliver what it claims to. Though I don't have fine lines or wrinkles as of now, I do have spots and pigmentation. Every time I use this face mask, I feel my skin become super soft and smooth as silk. My skin gets a nice glow that stays on for another 5-6 days. I've been using this mask twice every week since past 1 month now, and I've definitely noticed the reduction of all small-small spots that I had around my jaw line. My skin feels fresh, hydrated, plump and glowing and I absolutely love using it.

So, on that note check out my likes and dislikes about this mask below:

Likes:

1) The mask comes in easy-peasy packaging. All you have to do is tear open the packet, unfold the mask and carefully place it on your face. Keep it for 30 minutes and then remove it off. There is no need to add any moisturizer after using this mask.

2) Though the mask is quite wet, I like the soft fragrance of it which isn't too irritating or intimidating to the senses.

3) The mask gives a nice cooling effect to my skin, which feels very relaxing.

4) It does deliver what it claims to - soft, smooth, fresh and glowing skin. I can't tell its claims on "botox replacement" therapy, but it does make my skin look super smooth and even toned over a period of usage.

5) Never irritated my skin or gave me any breakouts.

6) It can be used daily at night to give your skin natural boost and glow from within.

Dislikes:

1) It contains parabens! :(

2) Easy availability can be a problem but it can be bought from cellinique's website. The good part is that they give worldwide free shipping, so I don't see any reason or excuse of not buying it again. Definitely gonna get it again as soon as my current stock is over.
