Nature Republic’s Whitening Collagen Dream Sheet Mask review~!
Facial mask advertised by JYJ? I'll take it!
Instructions and other tidbits in Hangul~
1. After cleansing, clean up your skin with toner first2. Attach the sheet mask on your face tightly3. About 20~25 minutes later, take off the sheet and tap lightly.
Didn't dig the mask texture at all. The quality felt a bit, err, I'm not exactly sure how to put it, but it felt like it was definitely lacking in quality. Though the mask soaked in the liquid it still felt like it could dry out so easily.
s c e n t : Baby cologne. I'm not fond of baby cologne scents when it comes to facial masks baby cologne but thankfully it wasn't the strong painful baby cologne type of scent that gives me headaches. More of mild baby cologne with a hint of... let's just say it smelled like baby cologne mixed with what i assume to be the scent of young virgin women running through a field of flowers (clearly i'm horrible at describing things, yeah? haha~)
It isn't a bad scent, but it's not exactly my favorite either.
photos with face masks matched with post-shower hair are always frightening
Closing my eyes and posing all chio-like as I take in the scent of virgins carrying babies in a field of dasies~
*using that as an excuse to cover up the fact i'm not wearing any lenses*
still so incredibly creepy-looking!
In the end, the mask delivered by giving me a teeny tiny bit of a brighter complexion (though not as noticeable as compared to facial masks i've tried in the past) and firmer skin. That's all I really need in a facial mask, to be honest. But still, it's not enough to make me purchase another.
Only decent photo of me for today!
Happy smiles today because of dinner with Darren at Bon Chon!
All cause of Bon Chon, clearly.

Nature Republic's Foot Therapy Peeling Mask
There's a shop by Taft that I like to stop by that re-sells a bunch of Korean cosmetics and facial masks and I was a bit shocked when the employee told me about the arrival of a "foot peeling" mask. I've read about foot peeling masks before and I've seen a couple of reviews, but I decided that I really had to see it for myself.
Nature Republic's Foot Therapy Peeling Mask!
Opened up the package and found this! Inside it comes with this plastic sock type of thing~
(Keep it on for around 90 minutes.)
Remember that you need to keep your feet flat on the ground to avoid the liquid inside from spilling out. There was a little spill because I was lying down on my bed while watching tv, waiting for an hour and a half to pass.
A few nights after, my feet started feeling a bit weird. I don't know how to perfectly describe it. It kind of resembled hard wax?
Well, I didn't really mind it until I was in bed one night feeling really uncomfortable because I felt like there was large pieces of dirt under the covers (Which immediately freaked me out because it reminded me of sand getting in the bed whenever I go to beaches which honestly just pisses me off like nothing else in the world.).
I looked under the blanket and I felt... pieces of skin?
Then suddenly I see my foot...
A bit frightening to look at at first, but before I knew it I began peeling away skin!
I must admit, peeling away the skin feels a bit.... theraputic in a way?
There's a teeny tiny heart shaped piece of skin.
Still in the peeling process at the moment.
[I'll go on and update this entry once my foot stops looking like a snake.]
