I have tried my share of sheetmasks and brands, probably not as much as some of the beautybloggers I follow but I have tried the known & lesser known brands
Sheetmasks strike me as a typical Asian-brand product. Even when they market for the Caucasian market, such a SKII or Shiseido.
Biotherm is (I think) a French brand. So let me see how this one lived up to my, rather elaborate, experience in sheet-masks.
Opening the package: quite the familiar formula:
I was surprised that it was quite wide: normally sheet-masks that target specifically for an Asian market will have a wider size, but this one sized up 9" at the largest part:
It also has the option for closing the eyes by the sheet and let you get fully rested (and moisturize the eyelids too)
Verdict:
- It was reasonably moisturized, but not completely drenched as some sheetmasks can be
- It didn't irritate my skin!
- Thick enough: doesn't tear
- It has a slightly scented base, but not hindering
- I loved the after-effect: I didn't put any other nighttime-care after having this masks and I woke up quite fresh.
- Anti-Ageing: not sure, as I only tried it once but my skin look fresher and slightly younger afterwards.
Conclusion:
I think Biotherm took notes from the Asian brands and incorporated the instructions (Asian brands often use pictures/animations). I kind of have the feeling it is a bit of a copy from another brand: but they did a good job on it.
I would repurchase this if the price was similar to their Asian ones: I found a single one over here for $4 but I estimate the retail price will be more expensive around $25 for 10.
