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.

In theme with Halloween and for some reason this review was stuck in my "drafts" and I just forgot about it.

Nohj Superfood - Honey - this nohj brand is one of my top 5 favorite brands of sheet mask! Always happy to see it in mask mavens.
Tsaio Stayed Up Late Mask- love the name of this sheet mask but if I was a student I would buy it if I saw it in the stores, but I still used it and this black sheet mask felt moisturizing.
Tony Moly Broccoli Mask Sheet - tony moly sheet mask are always a nice one to use when face is dry.
Berrisom Horror Mask - Black Rice (Skull) - I actually saved this and used it on Halloween and I was so tempted to walk outside in the middle of the night and scare some people haha.
Ariul 7 Day Mask - Pomegranate - new brand to me but sheet mask was quite mediocre. Help with anti-aging is always a plus.
Ariul 7 Days Mask - Tea Tree - same.
Esfolio - Bird's Nest Essence - Interesting that esfolio came out with a bird's nest one.
My Beauty Diary - Caviar - my beauty diary was a cult favorite in Taiwan and I still reach for them one in a while. However, to have caviar as one of them is quite interesting.

I have to say that I am quite disappointed with this month's mask maven. Did they even try? Three masks were doubles and they added a hand, foot and nose strip. WTH?

1. A'Pieu Sweet Melon Mask - this mask was a repeat and I didn't like it. Just a mediocre sheet mask.
2. Annie's Way Peptide Anti-Wrinkle Mask - I gave these to my mom.
3. Annie's Way Honey Deep Moisturizing Silk Mask - I actually like this brand but I would have preferred a more diverse of brands this month. Anyway this mask is perfect for this upcoming winter.
4. AngelLooka Collagen Mask - this is a new sheet mask for me and it was quite moisturizing during my long 2-hour bus ride to Philly but it has alcohol denatured in it!
5. AngelLooks Ultra Moisturizing Hand Mask - This is also a repeat and I have tried it before but I'm not a fan of hand mask because you can only do so much with these one.
6. Aritaum Bamboo Charcoal Blackhead Nose Patch - gave to my teenage brother hahaha.

Clio Clio Art Lipstick MO28 Blossom Ruby and MO14 Rose Pink and Art Shadow 417 Forte Green Brown

I got these lipsticks at a the Club Clio Korean sample sale.
The packaging are soo cute and artistic!
The shades were MO28 Blossom Ruby and MO14 Rose Pink.
Hydrated and creamy but I got bored of this spring color after a week. 

Clio Art Shadow 417 Forte Green Brown

Rich color

Love the combination of color and it's very shimmery.
I was going to buy the jcat "green tea frap" eye shadow trio which is very similar to this but I didn't cause I ended getting this first.

I love the green, brown and gold.

Primera Massage Cream

Primera Massage Cream -
I think I got the last one at a sample sale in NYC. I'm a fan of this brand but I was surprised to see it there. I used this as a body cream for this fall/winter months at bedtime. When I wake up the next morning and my skin is softer than the night before. The texture is a bit thick hence the reason I use it as a body cream instead of face cream.

Not going to repurchase because there are so many creams out there to try out but I love this brand.

Sephora Play November 2016

Best in Glow
Meet Your Partners in Shine

Stellar Products are Only the Beginning

This month's play box has a mix of makeup and skincare.

CoverFX Illuminating Primer - gifted it to my mom because she loves primers and I dont use them.
Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colour in Rose Gold - it is a very light rose gold color; nice for the highlighting your inner eyes area.
Maison Margiela Replica Lipstick On
Caudalie Vinosource Moisturizing Sorbet - the amount of product in this bottle was less than 1/3.
Sephora Collection Ultra Shine Lip Gel in Pin Up Pink - a very sheer and shiny lip gloss
GlamGlow ThirstyMud Hydrating Treatment - anything from glamglow is great

MayCoop Mini Raw Sauce

MayCoop Mini Raw Sauce - retail $14 - wasn't happy that they didn't have the full-sized product but it was nice that the size was just right to try out if your skin likes it or not.

It is thicker than toner or essence, but thinner than serum.
I use this after toner and before serum.
Will not be repurchasing because I have many bottles of essence that I have to get through first.
However, it was great for my sensitive combination skin.
This is better for the drier cold weathers.

THE FACE SHOP Essential Damage Care Hair Essence

THE FACE SHOP Essential Damage Care Hair Essence

Smells really nice hence the name of the product.

Its texture is more serum-like than essence-like.

I apply it wet and it leaves my hair soft when dry.

I would like to imagine that it helped "heal" my roots or prevent some split ends.

But I haven't seen much of a difference so won't be repurchasing.
