Facial masks are a great and inexpensive way to relax after a long day at work and to rejuvenate your skin. I do enjoy using masks every now and then and one of my personal favourites is the Kanebo Impress Concentrate Mask. It comes from the Kanebo Impress range, which is their newest range promise to give users dewy soft and silky smooth skin.

It comes in a foil pack with a folded paper mask, soaked in the Impress Concentrate. When I first used it, I was surprised to see how much liquid there was inside. In fact, my beautician used to use the excess liquid to massage my hands and neck area so the precious concentrate doesn’t go to waste! The mask comes in a one size fits all and people with smaller faces might find that the mask holes don’t quite fit where they are supposed to!

It has a slightly sticky texture to it but is amazingly moisturising. I like to use it cold from the fridge and a mask can usually last me more than half an hour, even under the fan or in an aircond room! That’s how much moisture it contains! I would recommend using it after you have cleansed your face properly so your skin can fully absorb the moisture from the mask.

Do try it, especially if you have dry skin like me! Each mask retails for RM55 and is easily available at any Kanebo counter or salon.

Note: I found that using the Impress mask sometimes broke me out as the formula is rather rich. Hence, use it only if your skin is very dry and avoid using it if you have some pimples or oily skin.
