Innisfree Intensive Ampoule Moisture Mask (Hyaluron) - Review

8:00 AM


December in Paris and excessive use of heaters on my behalf, change my combination skin to ultra dehydrated skin with really dry cheeks resulting in bumps on my skin and dry spots, instead of going for the purple version of my beloved Lulululun masks, I thought I’d try out the Innisfree Ampoule Mask (Hyaluron) ordered in my last Testerkorea order.


Price : 3500 won ( 3$/2,60€)


What the brand says

The main focus of this mask is to moisturize the skin with Hyaluron and Aloe as main ingredients.
This 2-Step ampoule mask concentrates on treating five different skin concerns related to moisturizing, antioxidant, firming, brightening and anti-trouble. Hyaluronic acid and aloe water penetrate your skin deeply and make it hydrated and radiant.


The ampoule is 2ml and the Sheet Mask contains 20ml of product.


Ingredients :

Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer, Alcohol, PEG-75, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Panthenol, Carbomer, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Sodium Polyacrylate, Potasium Hydroxide, Allantoin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Citrus Unshiu Peel Extract, Orchid Extract, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Camellia Japonica Leaf Extract, Opuntia Coccinellifera Fruit Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Copaifera Officinalis (Balsam Copaiba) Resin, Jasminum Officinale (Jasmine) Oil, Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Oil, Rose Flower Oil, Elettaria Cardamomum Seed Oil, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol

This mask contains alcohol , and a solvent is red flagged and some others are yellow flagged. On a brighter note, this contains many natural components like oils and fruit/plant extracts)


How to use


1. After cleansing, open the deep moisturizing hyaluronic acid ampoule and smooth over your skin according to skin texture.
2. Before the ampoule penetrates your skin, take out the Intensive Sheet Mask and apply over your skin excluding the eye and lip areas.
3. Remove the sheet after 10-20 minutes and gently pat the remaining essence.

Step 1 : Ampoule   

 

Ampoule : (An ampoule is basically, a concentred essence) There’s a lot of product, so much that I even wondered if I should put all of it on my face. However, the texture of the ampoule is more like a clear gel type almost watery which makes it easier to apply and absorb by the skin (so far, gel type of product are my favorites because of how the way my skin absorbs them). I eventually put all of the product onto my face and, as you are supposed to, I quickly put the sheet mask on afterwards before my skin absorb it all.

Step 2 : Sheet Mask

The sheet mask is for once, the right size width wise for my small face, it was a tad to lengthy as always, but because this is a mask that’s supposed to be brought down the jaw, it wasn’t as uncomfortable as usual. It's an organic unbleashed sheet and wasn’t as uncomfortable to wear as the more classic cotton like sheets. The mask stuck to the face without major air bubbles or moving.
I was studying while wearing this mask and it didn’t bother me at all (I sometimes have a hard time with uncomfy cotton sheet masks) and it certainly didn’t budge. I wore it for approximately 40 minutes and removed it afterwards (don't wear your sheet masks until they dry out to avoid any dehydration issues).


Results

- Minimal stickiness after removing the sheet
- Skin doesn’t feel tight anymore but I don’t have that feeling of ultra moisturized skin;
- Brightness :  My skin looks brighter instantly
On the spot : Result isn’t oily like Lululun's tends to be.
The next morning : My skin isn’t dehydrated looking but it isn’t plump and ultra moisturized either. I feel like it didn’t quite moisturize deeply enough but that’s only because I had extreme dryness going on, for normal skin to dry skin this is perfect. Even combination to oily skin can enjoy this, as it doesn’t leave an oily cast like my Lululun masks can do. I woke up with non sticky and non oily t-zone.

End of the next day : My skin doesn’t feel and look as dehydrated and dry as the day before, and it doesn’t feel extremely tight either. My skin is visibly less bright than when I removed the sheet but it’s still less dull looking than prior to the mask.

I like this mask and would re-purchase it, if you have extremely dehydrated skin like I do right now (the Parisian cold weather isn’t doing great for me + excessive use of heater), this maybe wouldn’t be enough but to get that boost of moist, once in a while, it is worth it.

  1. I also purchased the same product and was actually looking up for information on whether to wash it off after the application.
    But no info, so I guess, I'd adhere to the instruction and pat it dry before applying my usual skincare regime."
    Nonetheless, thank you for this review, it is useful.

  2. You're not supposed to wash it off because it will all get absorbed by your skin eventually ! Tell me how you like it :)
