Review : Shills Hyaluronic Shaking Mask

Product Description
Recommended for dry skin, this miracle gel mask turns into water after shaking and hardens back into a gel after application. Active ingredients help to deeply moisturize and rejuvenate the skin.

How It Works
Keep Shaking for 3 seconds, gel amazingly turns into water essence. Apply to face like a skin mask for deep hydration and water balance. Keep your skin moist and supple.
This gel-water-gel technology uses a quadratic kinetic energy. It utilizing a special condensation crystal sphere to penetrate the essense deep into skin

First kinetic energy: Solid gel state turns into a liquid state. This solid gel technology is able to quickly change into watery liquid (rich in rose & pearl water essence) to be infuse deep into skin.

Second kinetic energy: Liquid state turns to solid gel state. The liquid returns to form a sealing moisture membrane on the skin surface and prevents water from being volatilize into the air.

Thus this helps to moisturize and rejuvenate the skin, balances sebum secretion, control oil shine, tighten pores and gets rid of the acne scars. Skin repair and care, the Hyaluronic aqua shake mask brings to you an amazing experience of firming, whitening and hydrating.

I bought this from Beauty Bistro for $9.95, down from the usual $19.95. It was quite a steal and I thought I would just try and see if its indeed such a miracle.
 
I have been using this for the past 2 months ( over 50% used up ) and I can only conclude that the effects are only temporary.
 
It is packaged in a hard plastic bottle which is not very user-friendly. Its just too difficult to get the contents out of the bottle. According to the instructions on the packaging, I am supposed to shake the bottle and the gel-like contents would become fluidized and hence able to flow out from the bottle easily.
 
However, after shaking the bottle for a short while, only some of the contents have turned to fluid, and only little squirts of the contents splashed onto my palms as I tried to further shake the bottle. I thought it was quite messy. 

Next, I tried to squeeze the hard plastic bottle, in order to get the contents out, but the bottle is too hard and after pressing on it for several times, the bottle broke abit. Urgh, another mess again. Thank goodness that the label on the bottle helped to seal in the crack.

There are some tiny white beads within the gel and I am supposed to massage it on my skin. The transparent gel with a slight tinge of blue colour, is refreshing cool and has an almost slippery gel-like texture.

Initially when I started out with this mask, there was not much results on my skin. I used it when my skin was dehydrated but I cannot feel any hydration improvement on my skin after rinsing it off. In fact, my skin feels even more taut, which is quite bad.
 
However, I still continue to use it faithfully, to see if there is any improvement.

Next, I used this mask after a scrub and finally, I did see some positive results yet not entirely positive. I experienced some itchiness on the skin after 20minutes which I quickly wash it off. This itchiness does not happen every time. Only once. That one time, was after several usages of the mask. 

It was fine, on other times. My skin did indeed become smoother ( probably due to the scrub as well ) and much hydrated thereafter. However its only temporary as the effects did not last till the next morning.. I also did not see any whitening and firming benefits too.
 
So will I repurchase this item? Probably not.

Hi Everlyn,
Nice to hear from you. As every one of us have different skin types, so what work for me may not work for you.
