Egg Cream Mask - Pore Tightening 

Review 

Prior to using the mask I cleansed my skin with the Skin Laundry Gentle Cleanser (as seen mentioned in my skincare routine post). I kept the mask on for about 25 minutes. I was expecting the mask to smell like vinegar as it was listed as one of the main ingredients. However, it smelled quite pleasant. The sheet mask itself was made from a thick fiber cloth. The cloth was thicker than any other sheet mask that I've used in the past, it was very saturated with the serum and fit very well on my face. 

After using the Egg Cream mask I rubbed the excess serum into my skin as suggestion by the directions and it was a bit sticky to the touch. The mask didn't do much to minimize my pores. My face did feel very moisturized and smooth to the touch. I don't think the mask did much to reduce the appearance of shine, but I do think it helped to make my face feel noticeably firmer after using it. 

Lastly, I used my favorite night time moisturizer, Dr. Roebuck No Worries Hydrating Face Moisturizer (check out my review). I was honestly surprised by this mask. However, I don't believe the results were drastic enough to be seen in my pictures, especially after a one time use. I'll likely repurchase the mask again in the future. The price point was really inexpensive with it only being $6.00 at Sephora. I think it's good for a quick fix!
