Review : My Beauty Diary Bird Nest Mask


Product Description
My Beauty Diary Bird’s Nest Mask whitens, nourishes and renews the skin.(source)
Bird’s nest extract, a precious ingredient, and corallina officinalis, the so-called “bird’s nest from the bottom of the sea,” intensely enhances skin’s moisture level, and nourishes strongly.
Hydrolyzed soy and rice protein enhance skin’s defense, elasticity and transparency. They also relieve discomfort resulting from dryness.

A friend came back after a visit from Taipei and gave me 2 sheets of this flavour. My Beauty Diary is always coming up with new flavours which is both exciting and interesting. It reminds me of the days when I pursue on Nancy Drew series and I never finish the whole batch despite reading it so fervently.
I did, however, manage to finish all Sidney Sheldon books who was one of my all-time favourite author and who was unfortunately no longer with us.

Purported to have brightening and hydrating properties, products with bird nest ingredient always sound abit premium to me. Don't you think so? And as with anything that is considered premium, I thought it may be too rich for my sensitive combination skin.

Its quite a joy to think that I am layering bird nest on my skin. (think of Fann Wong and her fair skin, she drinks one bottle every day, if I remembered correctly)

Compared to the earlier versions of MBD masks, this sheet seems thinner and adhere better to the skin. Its soaked in essence which did not dry up even after an hour. I did not quite like scent though. Its not offensive but just weird.

My skin feels moist and comfortable. The flakiness near the nose have mostly disappeared, leaving in its place, moist and bouncy skin.
However, the next morning, I found a newly formed zit on my chin. Urgh. Too rich for my skin.

After my zit had subsided, I applied my 2nd and last mask, since my chin area was quite dry after pimple gel application so I thought I would try again. Ha, the perils of trying new products.
Thankfully, nothing happened and there was a soft dewy glow to my skin as well softer skin the next morning.  My chin's hydration level was better though not totally moisturised.
