QuickFX | Liquid Ice Cooling Face Mask Review
QuickFX | Sculpt Tightening Face Mask Review



Where I was able to purchase: SM Store Beauty Section
Price: Php 89.00 (~$ 1.70)


Claims and Key Ingredients:

From the front label of this sheet mask variant, it states that this skin-fitting mask "delivers ultra hydration to dull skin, leaving it replenished from moisture loss and dryness to achieve that dewy glow."

Notable ingredients that make this mask work its charm (as stated at the back label) include:
Snail Extract which creates stimulation in the formulation of collagen and elastin in order to help repair dry and damaged skin,
Aloe Vera Extract & Licorice Root Extract which regain moisture balance and brighten skin tone for a dewy glow, and
Peptide Complex & Adenosine which also aid in promoting the skin suppleness and also lift drooping skin for increased elasticity.

Instructions and Ingredients list:



Additional points from an Ingredients Analysis*:

This mask is mostly recommended for those with dry skin and can also be used by those with oily/acne-prone/sensitive skin (with caution). 

This mask is found to be:

↪ sulfate-free
↪ alcohol-free
↪ silicone-free
↪ EU allergen-free

2 anti-aging ingredients:

↪ Niacinamide (also good for Brightening)
↪ Adenosine

2 ingredients for wound-healing:

However, this mask is also found to contain:

*Ingredients listed on the reviewed product were inputted in a cosmetic ingredient analyzer by SkinCarisma (a community platform website which helps consumers and skincare enthusiasts get to know better what's in the products that they use).

Product Review: 

As observed from the previous mask variants from QuickFX, this one also has the same thick and soft-to-the-skin mask material. A point which I like among the three. This was also expectedly convenient to use and easy to unfold as well as take out of the packaging. A mild fragrance may be notable from this mask which was not so bothering, personally. I could also point out a bit of a floral hint in the scent. The mask serum had a clear and watery consistency which was a bit runnier than the one from the Sculpt Face Mask. As this variant claims to make your skin "dewy" as well as to provide hydration, this one definitely had a lot of excess amount in the packaging, also more than that from the Sculpt mask variant. This also adhered to the face a bit okay, making me give a 3/5 probably in this aspect. The mask also fit a bit okay.



While using this mask, it bothered me a bit that the chin area kept unfolding and that I also had to keep adjusting the sides. Other than that, the mask experience with this one was fine. After wearing this, my skin brightened a bit, giving a glow to the face and making it look and feel less stressful. I was actually contented with this one. It was true to its claims on the label stating that it provides hydration and replenishes the skin's lack of moisture. Definitely another good find, especially for those living in countries with summer weather like the Philippines. 🌞😎

Pros:
→ Good thick and soft-to-the-skin mask material
→ Good amount of excess mask serum
→ Adheres fine to the face on most parts
→ Fits okay
→ Mild scent (hint of floral)
→ No irritation observed
→ No sticky after feel
→ Glowy and hydrated skin after use

Cons:
→ Kept unfolding around the chin area
→ Needed a few adjustments



Go-Buy or No-Buy?
This is a Go-Buy for me. 😊 I was happy with the after effects this mask provided. Overall, it was a good mask which met its claims. And that's something I'm very much happy about with this variant.

{{Additional sidenote though, Idk if it's just me, but are most of the ingredients in the three variants just the same? I know that the cosmetic ingredients analysis is just a guide, but after running the ingredients list, results are just so identical. Just an observation, and maybe that's just me though.}}

But nonetheless, I really like the glow I got after wearing this. One thing is also that there was no sticky after feeling. If I could rank all three, this one comes second to the first mask I reviewed by QuickFX which is the Liquid Ice Cooling Face Mask. I would also recommend using this as a good refresher mask after a stressful day (just remember to pop it in the fridge before use! definitely makes the sheet masking experience a whole lot better 😉👍).

That's it for my review on the QuickFX Dewy+ Hydrating Face Mask.
