I love this month's bag because it focused majority on skincare!!!

1. Dr. Morita Caviar Moisturizing Essence Eye Mask - even though the packaging say to leave it for 10-15 minutes, I had it on for half hour and it was still filled with essence. This was the first product I ripped open and used when my bag arrived.
2. The Saem Saemmul Easy Eyeliner (Black)- creamy perfect black eyeliner- enough said!
3. Baviphat Urban Dollkiss Peach All-in-one Peeling Gel - cute peach design and I was going to get it to my sister but this will be on my summer skincare routine line instead.
4. Seatree Art Moisture Mist - not much information on this product. The mist spray is very watery and it dispensed is very scattered. This mist is a far cry from my current mist (Clio Micro Fine Collagen Mist) but it's cute to leave on your work office table to have your coworkers envy it!
5. Toyoepin 2-in-1 Permanent Crazy Mini Natural False lash- I never used or brought eyelashes. I like how these are separated so you can take the amount that you need. This will hopefully be a first of many eyelashes to purchase in the future because Asian lashes are pretty much non existent.
6. Somoon Dog Nose Pore 3-step Pack - These get rid of sebum and disgusting blackheads but 3-step nose pack in general usually doesn't work on me and it's too much of a hassle.
7. Hot cute pink make-up bag - I like how this material is a step better than the one we got last month.

Overall, I loved this month's bag. You can say I'm biased because I prefer skincare over to make-up products. Happy Spring!!

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. 

 

This month's theme of "Put Yourself First" made me re-think on why haven't I paid attention to my skin earlier in life instead of waiting until my late twenties to start. My main focus this winter is moisture and healing and this month's mask maven does just the job.

1. DeWyTree Honey Black Moist Mask - This is my favorite new winter mask. I am inspired to make a top 10 favorite winter mask for those that are in search for winter mask sheet. This has top number 1 for me!
2. Somoon Ampoule Juice Animal Mask - Bear design was the only good thing about this mask. My skin (especially my eye area) felt really uncomfortable. You know that itchy burning feeling but has nothing to do with heat - yea, that is the feeling I had. This means that this mask isn't for people with sensitive skin. Plus it sorta stinks.  
3. Hanaka Snail and Black Pearl and Elasticity Mask - my favorite brand this year but I'm biased because I love Hanaka sheet masks!
4. Hanaka Cactus + Hyaluronic Acid mask - ditto from the previous mask. Lots of moisture and who doesn't like to have a look of glow afterwards?  
5. Esfolio Honey Mask - I would have prefer the Nature Republic for diversity of brands but esfolio is ok. Just another sheet mask.
6. Esfolio Green Tea Mask - no complains here cause I love green tea masks.  
7. Leaders Aquaringer Mask - I actually wanted one of the other two (pores scaling black aqua or the AC dressing mask) because I have tried this anti-aging related one twice.
8. Mizon Enjoy Vital Up Time Calming Mask - I had high hopes for this one but the one thing that stuck out for me was the lovely floral scent.
9. Ladykin Blueberry Wash Off Mask - I'm not a fan of this brand or wash off mask in general. I have previous tried the pear version and didn't really like it.

  

There were great ones and the not so great ones. I know which ones to avoid. Still searching for more kinds of sheet masks for the winter!
