This box came with 10 facial sheet masks from Leaders Cosmetics. They were founded in 2004 by two leading dermatologists from Seoul National University. Woohoo, my parents alma mater! Their first brand, Insolution, quickly become one of Korea's best selling facial sheet masks and are now being introduced to the American market. Their mission is to inspire the natural beauty that lies within in order to reveal a new confidence through healthy, glowing skin. Leaders high performing products are made with innovative technology and the finest natural ingredients which will help women and men achieve flawless skin with exquisite results.
Product Description
Recommended for troubled skin + redness + excess oil + enlarged pores
An AC-fensine mask that balances skin by cleaning pores and reducing excess oil, leaving the skin feeling fresh, clean, and smooth. Flower waters and plant extracts promote the toning and moisturizing of the skin by penetrating deep into the pores.
Our coconut gel mask is made from all natural fermented coconut juice which contains vitamins B and C. All of their masks are free from alcohol, parabens, mineral oil, and artificial coloring.
I was thinking what the heck is AC-Fensine? On the back of the sheet mask it explains that AC-fensine ingredients help to balance the skin by extracting dirt around the pores and regulating oil production. First of all I'm thrilled to have finally found a sheet mask that doesn't contain alcohol. Every one I've used so far lists alcohol as the second or third ingredient. I might save this mask for the summer when I've got all of the issues mentioned above like excess oil and troubled skin.
Leaders Insolution Coconut Gel Brightening Gel Mask x 2 ($5 for single mask)
Product Description
Recommended for dark spots + dull/uneven skin tone
A moisturizing mask that brightens dull and uneven skin tones while improving complexion and reducing discoloration. With continuous usage, the mask systematically restores luster and vitality to the skin. Skin tone improving ingredient Telangyn works with functional brightening ingredient Niacinamide to create a "double illuminating system."
I've definitely got some dark spots on my face from old acne scarring and could use some more brightening so this is right along my alley. I'll probably use the mask in the next day or two to see how effective it is.
Product Description
Recommended for rough + dry skin
An ultra hydrating mask that provides long lasting moisture, leaving the skin feeling smooth and nourished. Peptides create a "moisturizing system" by penetrating deep into the skin to give it a boost of instant hydration. Amino-acids reinforce the skin's natural barrier to seal in moisture for a long lasting hydrating effect.
Currently I don't really have dry or rough skin but I could always use some moisturizing. I may give this to my mom to try if she has the patience to keep this on for 20-25 minutes. She seems to prefer regular face masks over sheet masks strangely enough.
Leaders Insolution Coconut Gel Lifting Recovery Mask ($5)
Product Description
Recommended for fine lines + loss of elasticity + dull skin tone
An anti-aging mask that minimizes wrinkles and restores the skin's youthful appearance by maximizing elasticity and firmness while replenishing moisture. Active lifting ingredients help to create a "firming network system" to strengthen skin tissue and restore skin structure.
This is the last of the four in the Insolution line. It's nice to know that Memebox included all four in the line to try. Since I'm in my late thirties, anti-aging is something that I'm starting to look for in all my skincare. Anything to minimize fine lines is appealing to me so I'll definitely use this mask.
Leaders Coconut Gel Mask with Orange x 2 ($4 for single mask or 10 mask pack for $35)
Product Description
Recommended for dull/uneven skin tone + blemishes
Orange extract is abundant in vitamin C which boosts collagen and brightens skin, while AHA improves texture by exfoliating and tightening the pores. The extract also helps to rejuvenate dull skin while restoring radiance.
As I've said before I suffer from cystic hormonal acne. It's significantly improved but I still suffer from a pimple or two during that time of the month. This particular sheet mask would be great to use before "it" arrives.
Leaders Coconut Gel Mask with Tomato x 2 ($4 for single mask or 10 pack mask for $35)
Product Description
Recommended for loss of elasticity + dull skin + malnourished skin + signs of aging
A powerful antioxidant Lycopene improves the skin's elasticity and resilience by keeping harmful environmental factors out and locking moisture in. Lycopene also reduces redness. Minimizes pores and revives the skin's healthy glow.
There is vitamin A and C in this sheet mask which can control acne and brighten the face. I also have redness on my face from old acne so it would be nice to see the redness fade away. I'm really curious about how these masks smell the more I look at them. The combination of coconut and orange or tomato is intriguing to me. I like the scent of coconut and orange but that's on its own. I have an empties post coming to you in the very near future and I will write an update about my thoughts on these masks.
And Memebox even included samples, yay!
3 Clio BB Water VF21
1 Goodal Oil Plus Skin Mist
1 Goodal Oil Plus Moist Emulsion
1 Goodal Creamy Plus Hydrating Cream
Final Thoughts
So, the cost of this box was $25. In order to qualify for free shipping I also bought the Yeondukong X Memebox Easy Brightening Stick for $12. I then used a 10% promo code on the brightening stick for $1.20 off. AND I had 9 Meme points to use so it was another $9 off which brought the total order to $26.80. In my mind this was money well spent and I'm super happy with the contents of the box. I was hoping it would contain some more variety with Leaders products but I do love my sheet masks. Unfortunately this box is now sold out on the Memebox website but you can purchase the masks individually from their site. The fruit masks are on sale for $2.75 while the Insolution ones are $3.50.
Happy Lunar New Year! and thanks for stopping by!
