Sephora's Sleeping Masks

Hey everyone! I wanted to come on here and talk to you about Sephora's Sleeping Masks which are inspired by Asian beauty rituals! There are about 11 to choose from and there should be one to address your skin care concerns as well as your needs! 


I purchased the Algae Sleeping Mask because it claims that is, 'cleanses and detoxifies skin while helping to eliminate impurities for a fresh, radiant morning complexion.' 


Here is a visual of how much product that you are getting inside. It is impossible to tell unless you pop it out of its packaging. You are looking at 8 ml or 0.27 fl oz of product in each one. You can definitely stretch out your usage with one pod and one Sleeping Mask can last you multiple nights. 


On the back of the box, it tells you what each one claims to do for your skin. All the ingredients are listed at the very bottom in a small font. 


I did receive the Rose Sleeping Mask in my Sephora Mystery Bag that I featured in another blog post and that is why the barcode on the bottom of the packaging has been blacked out with a sharpie. The claim is that it, 'plumps skin and gives an immediate radiance boost for hydrated, more luminous skin.'

How To Use:
I was a little bit confused on how to use one of these sleeping masks at first. Basically, you apply the product onto your face at night and then you wash off any excess product that is left on your face in the morning. Once you are asleep, you let the sleeping mask work its magic and you will see the results the next day when you wake-up! It recommends to use all over your face, down your neck and also around your eye area. I did apply a thin layer onto my face and I brought it down my neck. However, I prefer to use my current eye cream and I just layered it on top of the Sleeping Mask.

Final Thoughts:
I really did enjoy the light scent of the Algae Sleeping Mask a lot more than I originally thought that I would! It wasn't sticky or greasy on the skin and it absorbed very quickly. It wasn't messy to use and it is a cream-gel formula. My skin looked more radiant in the morning and it was soft to the touch! Sephora should definitely consider making the packaging more convenient such as in form of a bottle or tube because you can't reseal the top once it is open! As I previously mentioned, you can stretch your usage out of each Sleeping Mask and it just isn't a one time only use situation. 

These retail for $5 CAD on the Sephora web site. There are a wide range of scents that have various benefits that you can choose from to fit your skin type!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Illumination Anti-Aging Concealer & Waterproof 5-in-1 Micro-Fiber Creme Gel Stain Review

Hey everyone! Today I will be sharing with you two products from IT Cosmetics that I love! Both items have already replaced other beauty products that I have been using in my every day makeup routine.

It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Illumination Anti-Aging Concealer in Tan

It is described as a "full coverage anti-aging concealer" and it comes in four shades: Light, Medium, Tan and Deep. This product is equally as pigmented as the original Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer. The main difference with this concealer is that they added Drops of Light Technology for a more lit-from-within look. Since it is a full-coverage concealer, keep in mind that a little goes a long way. Also, I personally found that the shades ran rather light so keep that in-mind when you are purchasing this item. 


I applied this product to areas that I wanted to bring light to my face such as: down the bridge of my nose, on my cupid's bow, on my chin and under my eye area. I used a beauty blender to distribute the product evenly and it really did a great job at brightening the areas that I applied it to especially, the under eye area! My skin looked luminous even when the foundation sat on top of the concealer. I decided to apply another layer (this is of course optional,) on top of the foundation. It wasn't too much at all, I looked youthful, awake and my skin was luminous! When I applied my highlighter to the same areas that I applied this product, I was very impressed and this is truly a great lit-from-within summer look!

It Cosmetics Waterproof 5-in-1 Micro-Fiber Creme Gel Stain in Dark Brown

This particular product comes in 5 different shades and has 5 different technologies to help you achieve natural-looking eyebrows that really compliment your face. This product is waterproof, designed to last 24 hours of wear and is a budge-proof formula that mimics the look of real hair to give you that perfect eyebrow colour. On the IT Cosmetics web site, it says that “it’s your building fibers, taming creme gel, fill-in powder, and long-wear stain all in one step!”

I applied this product with an angled brush and I felt that it was very creamy, easy to work with and it just glided on my face effortlessly. The colour matched me well and I can just reach for this product when I am in a rush and I can give myself natural looking eyebrows. Previously, I have been using the Anastasia Dip Brow Pomade in Dark Brown and I felt as though my jar was dried out when it arrived at my house. If I were to compare the two, I feel like I really like the Build-A-Brow much more and this will now be replacing my Anastasia Dip Brow. 

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.
