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. And then It was automatically renewed before I got last month's Mask Maven. 
At the time that this August blog is published, I have yet (meaning did not received) my July Mask Maven.

1- LadyKin Saference Skin -RX Moisturizing Mask - moisturizing

2- Missha Real Solution Tencel Sheet Mask - Ceramide (soothing) - not good for sensitive skin

3- Beauty Friends Pomegrante Essence - passed along to sister

4- Beauty Friends Vitamin Essence - passed along to sister

5- Dr.Jart+ Vital Hydra Solution Mask - This was my first Dr.Jart+ mask and I had high expectations but I believe that the LoveMore brand is much better, but this was very hydrating.

6- Yadah Cactus Soothing Mask Pack - One of my favorites - very hydrating and face felt softer afterwards.

7- Yadah Honey Moisturizing Mask Pack - ditto to the above.

8- It's Skin Cream Mask Sheet - Glow - Very hydrating

9- Mystery Mask - Pore Ghassoul Pack - Not a fan and passed it along.

Top 5 Spring sheet masks

I did one last season and I'm picking the next 5 for spring/summer. I go through about 10-20 sheet masks per month and went through 60 sheet masks to make this countdown of 5 of my favorites. In order to make it to my favorites, the sheet masks must be ok for sensitive skin and moisturizing (full essence). I tend to like to keep a sheet mask on for 30-60 minutes. Read below for my favs:

1. Yadah Brightening Mask Pack - you know when you take out the cotton sheet mask out of the mask and the essence feels like it's glued onto the sheet instead of dripping everywhere from the pouch to your face-well this one didn't. It was great for my sensitive skin and it carried actual lime fruit extract! Plus I love the packaging!
2. PreLab Aqua - I guess I have a thing for semi-collagen feeling sheet masks that are able to keep my face moisturized for a hour. Packaging is cute.
3. Face Shop Real Nature Lotus - Hydrating - I wasn't expecting much from the Face Shop, boy was I in for a surprise! This is more of a creamy type instead of an essence type of a mask. The website claims that, "The mask sheet drenched in serum with the pure energy of Lotus Flower moisturizes and gives tired, rough skin a boost of radiance. (Drenched in a smooth serum with oil / Formula without added parabens)."
   
4. LoveMore - Loofah and Aloe Vera Hydrating Mask - Very hydrating and the packaging inside is interesting because they have a double layer packaging which keeps the moisture within the sheet mask. I had the mask on for about a hour and I convinced my aunt in Taiwan to buy me the combo box of the brand which consist of al the "flavors" in this brand.     
5. Dr.G Aqua Collagen Mask - I was coming back from a hot and humid shopping morning and ripped this open when I got home. It calm down my redness and inflammation and last well over a hour. It is a gel collagen mask instead of the regular cotton ones so it locks the moisture in instead of having it drip down your neck constantly. Absolute favorite of mine. I brought two boxes of this so it will last me the entire summer.

Banila Co. It Radiant Lace Hydrogel Eye Patch - I remember getting these pretty eye patches before from Beauteque and I like them. Will use them again when traveling on the airplane.

 

Yadah Vitalizing Mask - Pomegranate  - How do I not know of this brand until now??? Not very scented and very moisturizing. A must-buy!

Yahad Brightening Mask - Lime - I love this mask, I'm so glad that Beauteque introduced this brand to me. This has made it to my top 5 masks for spring/summer. I did look and feel radiance afterwards (about a hour of leaving it on my face). I'm going to buy more of this brand on my next skincare shopping trip. This mask was my favorite this month.

 

Re:cipe Slowganic Sheet Mask - Tangerine - Whitening

Re:cipe Slowganic Sheet Mask - Grape - Anti-Wrinkle - when I opened this, it smelled grapy. Like Dimetapp grapy. This is a mediocre sheet mask. Moisturizing but it dries up after 15 minutes.

 

Dermal Acai Berry Collagen Essence Mask - Firming - I got the Dermal Charcoal Collagen Essence Mask last month from Beauteque but sadly this isn't the best for sensitive skin people.

Lovemore Loofah Aloe Hydrating Mask - I'm mad at myself for not picking these up at the CosMed (drugstore) in Taiwan when I saw them. Well, buying more on my next trip to Taiwan. This is perfect for dry skin people! Very hydrating.

 

Skinfood Beauty in a Food Mask - strawberry - moisturizing and hydrating for dull skin - mediocre sheet mask

Skinfood Beauty in a Food Mask - orange - I got this in a previous mask maven. It helps with brightening.
