[ Review ] IAC-labo Rice Mask

 

Product Description

IAC-labo Rice Mask is a facial sheet mask formulated with four types of 100% domestically sourced rice. Its rice fermentation solution helps prevent rough skin, leaving the complexion feeling fresh and looking radiant. Ceramide helps maintain skin hydration and support the skin’s moisture barrier, keeping the skin moisturised and balanced.

I purchased several Japanese facial sheet masks during my trip to Hokkaido, including the Lululun Hokkaido Milk Mask, Lululun Hokkaido Premium Face Mask Sheet Honey and Lululun Hokkaido Melon Face Mask. The IAC-labo Rice Mask was another addition to my skincare haul.

Featuring rice-derived ingredients, this Japanese sheet mask is designed to help keep the skin moisturised, smooth and radiant. With rice ferment filtrate, rice bran extract, rice bran oil and rice ceramide among its highlighted ingredients, it offers a simple way to incorporate rice-based skincare into my routine.

WHERE TO BUY : Yesstyle | Shopee SG

I purchased the PDC Wafood Made Sake Lees Fermented Rice Pack from Don Don Donki some time ago, and it has become one of the face packs I reach for whenever my skin looks dull or needs a little exfoliation. The 170g pack lasted me quite a while, making it a relatively value-for-money addition to my skincare routine.

My recent mask pack empties were PDC Wafood Made Uji Matcha Pack and Lindsay Modeling Mask Cup Pack.

What drew me to this Japanese skincare product was its use of sake lees, a traditional by-product of sake brewing, combined with a distinctive rice-like texture. 

Packaging, Scent and Texture

PDC Wafood Made Sake Lees Fermented Rice Pack comes in a soft, squeezable pouch with a plastic nozzle for convenient dispensing. The packaging makes it easy to squeeze out the desired amount without having to scoop the product from a jar.

[ Review ] Olay Retinol24 Night Eye Cream

 

Product Description

Olay Regenerist RETINOL24 Night Eye Cream penetrates deep into the delicate skin surface around your eyes. And its safe enough to use every night with virtually no irritation. Apply nightly to the skin around your eyes for 24-hour hydration. Retinol 24 Eye cream visibly firms, brightens, evens skin tone, and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dark circles. It has a light, silky feel and absorbs quickly, going deep into your skins surface so you wake up every morning to plumper, younger-looking and radiant eyes. This formula is fragrance free and free of dyes.

WHERE TO BUY : Amazon

This is my first time trying an Olay product, despite the brand having been available in Singapore for many years. After finishing Dermalogica Multivitamin Power Firm Eye Cream and Kleem Organics Firming Eye Cream, I decided to try something different and incorporate retinol into my eye care routine.

Olay Retinol24 Night Eye Cream is formulated with Olay's proprietary Retinol24 complex and niacinamide. The brand claims that this combination helps resurface the skin, visibly smooth fine lines, improve skin texture and reveal brighter-looking eyes, while providing up to 24 hours of hydration.

Made in Thailand, Olay Retinol24 Night Eye Cream is marketed as being free from added fragrance, synthetic dyes and mineral oil. Despite my initial concerns about whether a retinol eye cream might leave my undereye area feeling dry or contribute to milia, I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable it felt on my skin.

[ Review ] Lululun Hokkaido Melon Mask

 

Product Description

Lululun Hokkaido Melon Face Mask is designed for anti-aging skin in need of increased elasticity and intense hydration. Ideal for all skin types, thanks to natural ingredients from Hokkaido, this mask effectively addresses dullness and the appearance of fine lines, smoothing and refreshing the skin. Maximum results are achieved with daily use, providing deep hydration and restoration. The mask contains collagen and elastin hydrolysates for firmness, as well as kelp, shiso, and melon extracts.

WHERE TO BUY : Shopee

After emptying Lululun Hokkaido Premium Face Mask Sheet Honey and Lululun Hokkaido Milk Mask, it is time to open up the Lululun Hokkaido Melon Mask.

I like to focus on using one pack consistently before opening another, as I find this gives me a better idea of how a product performs without having too many similar products in rotation. This also helps ensure that my review isn’t skewed by switching between different sheet masks.
