Today's spotlight is on another of Skinfood's popular mask- Rice Mask Wash Off. This is my second mask off this popular Korean brand. Skinfood is popular for its masks. They offer more than a dozen mask from wash off to paper masks. So many I just wanna have all of them. According to their website, this wash off mask contains rice extract that moisturizes and brightens tone. with its texture of ground rice, it leaves skin bright, soft, and luxurious.
To use this mask, simply apply the desired amount on your face after washing, focusing on the nose area. Wait for 10-15 minutes and wash off with lukewarm water. On both website and product itself, it didn't mention how many times in a week one should use this product.
The Rice Mask is in a white sturdy plastic tub containing 100 grams. Each tub is full which is one of the reason why I love about Skinfood masks. Same as with the other masks it has a plastic lid to secure the product inside. The tub has both English and Hangul description written on the sides. The product's manufacturing and expiration dates are stamped. The mask is colored white and has this creamy old floral scent. I don't like the scent sorry. The product's texture is creamy ans smooth with rice grain particles. These particles are not as hard and abrasive as the Black Sugar Mask. It feels like there are these big beads gliding on your face. These particles are not as many and solid as the black sugar. You can feel the cream more than the particles.I feel the need to add more as I massage my face with the product.
PROS:
- sturdy tub
- content is full upon purchase
- rice grains are mild for scrubbing
- moisturizing
- does not trigger excess oil production
- brightening
- improves skin tone
- packed with nutrients
- non-irritating
- does not cause breakout
- a tub can last for months
CONS:
- the old school scent
- not that exfoliating
- the need for me to apply more to exfoliate my skin
Same as the Black Sugar Wash Off masks, this is also an exfoliant. But I don't find it near that purpose. I find the grains' purpose is to massage the skin instead of exfoliating. I use this alternately with my other masks. I also place this inside the fridge for more cooling effect. I tried using this for 4 days in a row and I never experienced any negative reaction on my skin. After using this during daytime I notice my face became radiant and the tone improved. When I look in the mirror. My face does not appear nor feel tight and dry (prior to using toner and moisturizer). This mask is more suitable for people with dry, normal, or combination skin as this product is more on the moisturizing side. People like me with oily skin can benefit from this wonderful mask if used 1-2 times a week. I won't recommend this to people with acne and lesions on their skin though. Thoughts on repurchasing a tub? Ummm...perhaps i will repurchase once I run out of it. It is good to have a mask like this when I need a weekly moisturizing boost. I give this little precious a 5 out of 5!!!!
