Review: Nature Republic Given By Nature Green Tea Mask Sheet, Great Boost of Skin Moisture Without Leaving Residue

It’s mask time again and this would be the Nature Republic Given By Nature Green Tea Mask Sheet. I picked this mask along with my purchase with fh Club beauty box when I was at the Malaysia Clothes Buffet almost 2 weeks ago. Yup, I sure love green tea and wouldn’t be able to get my eyes off from this mask.

‘The facial mask sheet keeps your skin healthy and radiant with green tea extract.’ – Nature Republic

Consuming green tea gives you all the health benefits and having it to use on our skin will be beneficial too. It is anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and calming properties which explains that this mask promises to give you that healthy and radiant skin.

This is my first time using Nature Republic’s product and just as how the name goes, this is a sheet mask where the mask is soaked with it’s concentrated essence. To my surprise that this mask contains alcohol and paraben as part of their ingredient.

Ingredients: Water, Butylene Glycol, PEG/PPG-17/6 Copolymer, PEG-75, Alcohol,Chlorphenesin, Methyparaben. Polysorbate 60, Xanthan Gum, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance. Sodium Hyaluronate. Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract.

Here here, this is how the mask looks like on me. I always have this problem where the mask just doesn’t fit nicely on my nose bridge. To be honest, my nose bridge isn’t high and that’s probably the reason. The mask doesn’t come with any protective film, therefore it is very important to carefully unfold the mask. It has quite a strong alcohol scent which I didn’t quite like it, I was expecting some soothing scent. I left it for 20 minutes and dispose the mask since it is not recommended to be reused.

My skin looked very fair right after the mask and the after photo brightness is not altered, you can tell that my under eye circles is still as severe. There was quite a bit of the essence and I massage it till it’s fully absorbed into my skin. It took me quite a while and I was worried because it felt oily at first then once it is fully absorbed, it leaves no residue. My skin seems to look like it’s glowing.

I wasn’t convinced if the mask helped skin, therefore I have used my BIA Skin Analyzer to prove if it works. The moisture and skin texture value increased to the maximum and a decreased of skin oiliness.

Above all…

I love this mask! Although the scent isn’t favorable, it left my skin so well hydrated until the next morning. Yes, I did measure it with the BIA Skin Analyzer the next day and the reading was the same on the after photo above. I love how it left my skin looked so fair right after but the effect lasted about 10 minutes, I was hoping for it to be permanent! I definitely recommend this mask for those who have dry to combination skin that hunger for moisture.
