Review : Skinc Pure Deepsea Hydrating Mask



Skin Inc Hydrating Mask
Product Description
This triple-treat gel mask clarifies, hydrates and whitens in one simple step. Replenishing your skin’s moisture with precious deep-sea water – extremely pure and rich in nutrients – from southern Japan, this deeply hydrating mask also combines soy bean extract for brightening the skin and hyaluronic acid for the extra moisture boost. So gentle that it can used around the eye area and left on overnight, daily. The result? Radiant skin that feels plump and dewy soft. 0% Scent and 0% Paraben

At 30ml, the retail price for this mask is $72, too expensive, in my opinion but I managed to snag a deal during Luxola 30% storewide sale. Just wanted to see if the Made In Japan hydrating mask product is really worth the price. You can check out the rest of Skin Inc products here.

Skin Inc is founded by a Singaporean lady, with a vision of using the best and proven ingredients and then ensuring that the ingredient can be delivered fresh and effectively to the skin – to the skin’s deeper layers where it matters the most. Skin Inc products are said to be designed and formulated with zero percent paraben, zero percent scent and zero percent fuss.

With a clean and minimalistic design, the mask is housed in a plastic tub that looks elegant. The 30ml size lasts me for about 2.5 months where I use it as a hydrating mask once a week. It can be layered on the skin for up to 30 minutes or as an overnight mask although with the gel texture, I don't quite like using it as an overnight mask because it doesn't absorb into the skin unlike the conventional overnight mask from Laneige.

The gel texture is thick and glooey-like but without the messiness. It applies easily on the skin but requires slightly more effort to cleanse it off. It claims to whiten and hydrates but I feel that its performance is not on par with its hefty price.

The hydrating mask hydrates moderately well on optimal skin condition but not sufficient on dehydrated skin. In fact, it stings slightly on flakiness. And the whitening capability is hardly visible on my skin. However, I like the soft and supple skin, right after each treatment though the hydration doesn't last well beyond a day. On severely dehydrated skin condition, I will recommend one to use it every day.

Update 8/5/18 :
A 5ml sample size was part of my purchase set from Tangs Beauty Box, which came in timely, as I was battling with dehydrated skin after a bad cleanser experience. It lasted me 3 times of usages where I used it twice a day and the following morning.

Even though Skinc Pure Deepsea Hydrating Mask is recommended to be layered on skin for 30 minutes but the mask was absorbed into my dehydrated skin within 5 minutes, leaving a tacky left-behind feel. I washed it off after 30 minutes.

It soothe my parched skin and hydrates slightly. There is no stinging sensation or brightening effect. Just a mask suitable for those with optimal skin condition. Not necessarily one which you will reach for, during emergency cases.
