 Review: My Scheming’s Skin Clarifying Astringent Mask

At our Asian specialty store, Uwajimaya, they had a whole shelf of face masks. I decided to go with these three to start:
The Rose Dew Moisturizing Mask for days that my skin needs extra moisture.
The Apple Brightening and Hydrating Mask for days where my skin needs a picker upper.
The Skin Clarifying Astringent Mask for days where my skin is “breaking out” or just not looking it’s best.

Mind you, I didn’t read the backs of any of these and just went with the name of the mask. There were literally so many to choose from! At only $2.00 a piece, it’s quite a steal. I’ll most likely go back and try other options. Let’s start with the Skin Clarifying Astringent Mask.


About the product:

This Taiwan brand describes this mask to help purify pores, balance oil secretion, condition skin, and help bring back hydration and nourishment to the skin. On top of that, the hyaluronic acid should make your skin feel silky, smooth, and clean!

How to use this product:

After cleansing, place the “silk” side of the mask on your face. There is a plastic piece that allows you to unfold and apply the mask easier. One you placed the mask on your face, you can peel away the plastic and smooth out any air bubbles in the silk mask. I found that this mask fit well but because it was so wet, I found it sliding down my face. It might be useful to stay in one place and not trying to do housework while wearing the mask.

I left the mask on for 20 minutes. It is recommended between 15-20. After time was up, I tapped the mask to make sure the moisture would transfer to my skin. Next, peel the silk from your face. It’ll leave a lot of the moisture on your face. At this point, you can either rinse your face or leave the moisture on your face. I left it on to experience the full effects of the mask.

The results:

IMAGE NOT EDITED SO YOU CAN SEE THE SLIGHT DIFFERENCES

I found that the moisture left my face feeling sticky and not as clean or silky as it claimed. However, I feel like my skin looked smoother, hydrated, and in slightly better condition. One of the nicest things I found with this mask is how it didn't irritate my eyes. Most face masks that are similar hurt my eyes but this one had very minimal irritation.

So will I try it again? Yes. I think maybe with multiple applications, you’ll see more results. However, I feel like doing this before going out or at the beginning of the day would be best because you certainly will feel refreshed. I would also recommend rinsing your face to feel cleaner skin.
