I went from an easy, hurried, low-maintenance facial cleaning ritual to trying out the Asian 10 step skincare routine. Being raised in New York City has damaged and polluted my skin; I'm now repairing and focusing on anti-aging.
I want to buy and use products from a broad number of brands, I didn't just want to stick with one brand, I shopped around and compared all. I will try to write reviews each month, one which will be a list my skincare routine products, sharing my experiences on each product.

Beauteque January Mask Maven 2016 review + PROMO CODE

Beauteque January Mask Maven 2016 review
Beauteque's Natural Beauty theme
Beauty from the Land and Sea!


Shipped : January 13
Arrived : January 28

Why so slow this month?
Because NYC was hit with Blizzard Jonas.
It was the second biggest snow storm in NYC history.
And usually the USPS takes time.

This theme was perfect for this month because this winter weather is drying up my skin which needed a lot of moisturizing.



Use promo code "ILENE" for a special something (10% OFF) at checkout at beauteque.com and/or beauteque.com/subscriptions.

Every month there could be 9-11 masks in every bag which can range anything including sheet mask, hand mask, wash-off mask, eye mask, foot mask and etc. If you buy it per month or up to 3 months it is $15, $14 for 6 months or $13 for 12 months.

I brought it for a year to try it out. 
 
  • Freeset Donkey Milk Skin Gel Mask Pack - Aqua - Gel skins are an upgrade from the regular cotton mask, but I think I prefer cotton ones. This had a cooling sensation once I placed it on my face bit stinging to my skin. Will not be re-purchasing, because it dries fast after 10 minutes but the other side is very moisturizing. I don't want to waste it so I rub it all over my body. I think donkey's milk ingredients doesn't fit my sensitive skin well.
  • Mediheal Mogongtox Soda Bubble Sheet - most excited about this one! I had a "before" and "after 10 minutes on my face" picture. It does clean your pores very well, but you have to wash your face afterwards.  I guess I am lazy and rather not wash my face again after cleanser. You can feel the bubbling sensation, reminds me of baking soda haha. Alcohol is in this product.



  • SNP Animal Otter Aqua Mask - moisturizes and cute (best for guys who don't wanna feel girly because they are using "face masks"). At first I didn't think much about this mask because it dried fast. But the next morning, I still felt the moisture left from the mask on my face. I really did not want to wash my face, ha. Afterwards I think I used it on the wrong side because the prints wear darker on one side.
  • TonyMoly Pureness 100 - Hyaluronic Acid - hydrates well and tones down inflammation - I will be saving this for summertime because I love these Tony Moly Pureness 100.




 

Hanaka Camellia and Hyaluronic Acid - hydrates and moistures
Hanaka Marine Mud and Seaweed Mask - I brought a whole pack of these when I was in Taiwan. I love these, they are full of essence and leaves your skin looking brighten and clean.


Scinic My Juicy Bottle Mask - Firming and alot of essence
Baviphat Juicy Mask - Strawberry (oil production - perfect for summer)
Baviphat Juicy Mask - Green Tea firms, moisturizes (perfect for winter) - nothing special about this sheet mask when I tried it.



Overall, I'm glad about this month's mask maven. The bubble sheet was nice but now I know that that particular sheet mask is not for me.
