Sheet Mask Chronicles : The Face Shop Real Nature Calendula Face Mask – Review

Hey everyone! I hauled quite a few sheet masks from The Face Shop during its launch offer at Nykaa. I have the Real Nature Calendula Mask for review today. With the occasional raining and following humidity and the rising heat, I was quite apprehensive of trying out a sheet mask, because these come so loaded with serum. But I love the effects of the sheet masks on the skin, so gave the Calendula one a try. I think I took a little risk with this one because of the weird way my skin behaves at season transition times. I also tried this on an experimental basis to understand whether my oily-combination skin can tolerate the moisture levels that sheet masks tend to provide, during the upcoming summers and moonsoon. Nevertheless, the sheet masks undeniably feel so cool and relaxing that I love unwinding after a hectic day with these. 🙂

Product Description :

A mask sheet that mildly calms sensitive skin with rich essence, the Real Nature Calendula Face Mask is here to transform your skin! Your skin will be soft and supple in a couple of minutes with this Mask, leaving you looking effortlessly flawless. The rich extracts, with soothing properties, offers softness and hydration to skin. So ladies, this is a mask we absolutely swear by. Are you ready for gorgeous skin days? We think so!

The Face Shop : Mini Haul

Hello everybody! I had heard rave reviews about The Face Shop. This is another Korean skincare brand and has a great lineup of products ranging from sheet masks to bath and body to makeup. I was elated when Nykaa launched the brand only recently. I have tried sheet masks from Innisfree(find my reviews here, here and here) and was pretty impressed. Korean skincare is known worldwide for their innovative products, and brands like Innisfree and The Face Shop source their ingredients largely from nature. Since I am inclined more towards natural products, so I always wanted to try brands like this.

So I picked up a few sheet masks (they have become a staple for me now 😀 ), a cleanser, a lotus gel and a cute little hand cream. 🙂 Read more
