The sticky finish makes it a magnet for cat hair and my own hair... what a shame.

Skin type: Folliculitis, combination dehydrated skin

I tried this because my skin has been a mess lately due to hormones.

The mask is quite large and absolutely drenched in essence.
It's incredibly hydrating, though it does leave a slightly sticky feeling afterwards.
The soothing effect is decent, and my face feels comfortable after use.
No irritation.

시카 세럼 마스크

It's really great, but it's a shame that it's not available at Olive Young, making it difficult to purchase offline.

I received this as a gratis and tried it out. It was like magic - as soon as I put one sheet on, my inflamed blemishes immediately calmed down. The cooling effect is almost as intense as a modeling mask. Other masks only feel cool for a short while, but this one maintains that soothing coolness. It's an absolute must-have when your skin needs calming!

The adhesion isn't great. It's really inconvenient when I try to work while wearing the mask because it keeps sliding down.

This product is often sold out at Olive Young, causing a frenzy! Whenever my skin acts up, using this mask once restores it to normal by the next day like magic.

You can use this after cleansing without applying anything else, or you can simply use a mist or toner as a first step. Pro tip: Before applying the mask, squeeze out a bit of serum, apply it to your face, and gently massage it in for initial absorption. Then, put on the mask for 20 minutes - that's perfect. After removing the mask, the remaining serum absorbs, leaving a slightly firm texture on the skin. This works well in summer without being too dry, but in winter, adding a moisturizing ointment from the dermatologist makes it just right!

The eye and nose holes in the mask sheet are oddly shaped and don't fit well, causing the area between my eyebrows to always lift up, which is a bit uncomfortable.

This mask not only instantly soothes my super sensitive skin but also makes it look like nothing ever happened, allowing me to apply makeup the next morning. Even when my skin barrier is compromised, causing stinging, redness, and blemishes to the point where I have to selectively apply toner, this mask manages to hydrate and calm my skin! The cooling effect is fantastic for reducing heat in the skin. As a result, after absorbing plenty of moisture and reducing heat, my skin becomes clear and radiant! It's my go-to mask sheet when my skin needs urgent care, when I have time to pamper my skin, or when I'm traveling. I just stocked up on 60 of these during a huge sale!

On days when my skin is acting up, I apply some Lidl Shot and then use this mask over it. The next morning, my skin texture is noticeably improved and feels calmed. Also, there's so much essence in this mask! I often use the excess on my body or reapply it to areas that need extra soothing. This way, the mask doesn't dry out quickly and stays moist even after 20-30 minutes!

I didn't really have any major complaints about this product. Considering that many sheet masks these days cost over $2, it's not excessively priced. However, since it's not available in Olive Young stores, you have to order it online, which incurs shipping costs. It's a bit inconvenient when you just need a quick mask fix and can't pick it up at a local store.

As someone with acne-prone skin, I was pleasantly surprised by this mask. While my acne isn't severe, when I do get breakouts, they're almost always inflammatory. What impressed me most about this cica mask was its non-sticky texture - it's practically weightless! Though I initially received it as a free sample, I loved it so much that I've since repurchased it. Of course, if it doesn't mesh well with your other skincare products, you might find it a bit sticky. The sheet itself isn't extraordinary, but it's soft and gentle. I found this mask to be excellent for soothing my skin. In fact, I've noticed my blemishes disappearing after using this product!

There was nothing to dislike about it. No blemishes at all. And the mask sheet definitely isn't one of those that's so thin it tears easily!

I bought this during a huge sale around February 20th, and it was amazing! The adherence was excellent, and it absorbed so well. It felt like 100% absorption (even for my dry skin). It was incredibly hydrating without leaving a sticky finish - just fresh and dewy! I've used many sheet masks, but it's rare to find one with such great value and quality. This mask is truly well-made.

There's not much to complain about, but the price point is slightly on the higher side.

This mask is definitely one of the top performers among all the masks I've tried! First off, the sheet is absolutely drenched in essence, keeping it moisturizing even as time passes. I use it for exactly 15 minutes, and it doesn't dry out at all! Celimax is known for their soothing product line, and it shows - after using this mask, you can instantly feel your skin becoming brighter and more radiant.

It works even better if you keep it in the fridge!

It might be a bit heavy for oily skin types. As someone with oily skin who prefers a lighter feel, I found it a bit rich. The mask tends to slide down if you're doing other things while wearing it. Also, it lifted in some areas, so the adherence seems a bit lacking.

The green ampoule is generously infused into the mask. The sheet is soft, causing no irritation. I loved that the fragrance isn't overpowering. The ampoule has great soothing effects, so I'd recommend it for those with super sensitive skin. It provides quite good hydration - perfect for combination dehydrated skin types. While it may vary for different face shapes, it fit my face perfectly, which was great.

If you have a beauty device, using it about 15 minutes after applying the mask seems to improve absorption and enhance the overall effectiveness.

When you take the mask out of the package, some of the ampoule drips off because there's so much of it... (what a waste!) -> But that just means there's plenty of ampoule, so it's actually okay!

<My skin type: Sensitive, Combination dehydrated>
The texture: It's close to a sheet mask, but also has a bit of a gel mask feel. I've been using a cica ampoule regularly, and I love that this mask contains a generous amount of that ampoule. The ampoule itself finishes light without any stickiness, but when used as a mask, it's incredibly hydrating.
The scent: It's not completely fragrance-free, but it's so close to being unscented that anyone could use it without issue.
Blemish potential: None. My skin is quite sensitive and usually reacts quickly if I change even one step in my skincare routine (I'm actually dealing with a reaction from a product I used yesterday...), but this mask actually calms my skin without causing any blemishes or tiny bumps.
Price: I stocked up on 50 of these during a sale on the Cellmax official site. I think I got them at a pretty good price, so I use them often when my skin isn't in the best condition.

There's nothing particularly bad about it. It's fantastic! Though I find myself reaching for the noni ampoule mask a bit more often.

The scent is lovely and it has a great calming effect! The mask sheet really adheres well to the skin.

It might be better to use the sheet masks occasionally and regularly, while collecting the serum to use in small amounts separately.

It feels a bit oily, making my skin look shiny. Using it too often seems to cause blemishes to appear.

I bought this because they were having a huge sale. There's so much serum in each mask that after using 3 sheets, the leftover serum can fill a 20ml bottle. It seems to have an even better soothing effect when you chill it before use.

Pro tip: Collect the leftover serum for a bonus ampoule treatment!

The serum was surprisingly rich... With frequent use, I noticed blemishes starting to appear due to the excess oil. It might be best to use this occasionally as a soothing treatment when your skin is irritated.

Skin type: Acne-prone with large pores

Struggling with severe teenage acne, I immediately snagged this when I saw it on sale at A'bly.

To soothe both my excited mind and skin, I chilled it in the fridge briefly before applying. The sheet was absolutely drenched in serum and adhered perfectly to my face without any air pockets. After removing the mask, I was left with refreshed skin that felt noticeably calmed. Satisfied, I applied foundation the next morning and was amazed at how smoothly it went on. This mask seems excellent for improving skin texture.
