I have tried hundreds of sheet masks over the years (at some point, I was using them daily). At first, I was so excited about the concept that I loved almost every mask. With time, some of that excitement wore off and I got picky, especially when considering the cost per mask and the waste resulting from packaging and the sheet material. These days, I still use an occasional mask, but it has to be truly great to earn my personal seal of approval.
Mediheal makes some of the best sheet masks I’ve ever had. And while we all have different budgets, I find Mediheal priced fairly well, especially considering their quality. Right now I’m using Mediheal D.N.A Hydrating Protein Masks. They are available on Plump shop (save 25% with my code lucy25) and Amazon (sold by Mediheal US).
Mediheal D.N.A Hydrating Protein Masks are made with squalane, ceramides, peptides, and plant oils and extracts to nourish and plump the skin. They promise to improve the look of fine lines and give a healthy glow. A full list of ingredients is available at the end of the review.
How to use:
Apply to a clean face after toner
Keep on for 15 minutes (or until you see the logo) - this logo part is on the Plump Shop website instructions. I assume at some point, when the mask sheet dries down enough, you may be able to see something. Mine never got to that point, which is fine with me.
Remove and discard the mask, pat in the remaining essence
Lock in with moisturizer
I love using sheet masks while taking long, relaxing baths (and watching skincare Youtube - guilty pleasure). I feel the steam from the water helps everything work better. Maybe that’s just in my head, but it works for me. The steam may also be the reason my masks don’t dry out while in use and that elusive logo is nowhere to be seen.
Mediheal masks are fully saturated in a creamy serum that reminds me of a thin emulsion / lotion - it’s such a treat for dehydrated, tired skin. I will have to get some more for the upcoming Fall / Winter season. There’s a light but noticeable scent; I’m not sure how to describe it - maybe “fresh”? It reminds me a bit of expensive cologne, but again - it’s very mild. I love it.
My impressions
This mask is like a hug for the face. I adore it. The thick, creamy serum/essence is nourishing but not greasy. My skin is so plump and happy. I use these at night and then seal everything in with a moisturizer. I wish I could get them for my hands, arms, and the rest of my body! Or maybe if Mediheal could bottle the serum… I digress. I highly recommend Mediheal D.N.A Hydrating Protein Masks to anyone in need of a hydration and moisture boost.
