I signed up for a free sample of Garnier’s new sheet face
mask. I have used Asian sheet masks before and I do really enjoy them. I wanted
to see how a western version would compare, so as soon as I got it I tried it
out.
As soon as a pulled it out of the packaging it was
completely saturated in the serum. There was also a good amount of serum left
over in the packet that you could use anywhere else on your body; why waste it
right? It was a little tricky unfolding the mask but eventually I got it and
started to apply it to my face. It did not fit my face perfectly, however it
still worked fine. I would say the Asian sheet masks I have used in the past
fit my face a little bit better. They say to leave it on for 10 minutes but I
left it on for about 15 minutes.

The mask has a moderate floral perfume smell to it. I could
smell it the entire time I had the mask on, but I found it to be pleasant. If
you are very sensitive to scents then I wouldn’t recommend this mask. After
removing the mask I rubbed in the remaining serum on my face and then finished
up the rest of my skincare routine which for me is serum & then moisturizer
and eye cream. I didn’t notice any significant difference. There was the
slightest overall brightness to my face and that was it. They claim that you
must use it 2-3 times a week for 2 weeks to see the most brightness and they
also say to use it with their other dark spot products in order to see the
optimal results in lightening dark spots.
I don’t have dark spots myself, plus I have only used
this product 1 time so I can’t testify as to how well it works on dark spots.
In comparison to the Asian sheet masks I have used, I prefer the Asian sheet
masks. The smell is milder than the Garnier masks and it makes my skin feel so
nice after every use.
