Viscous consistency. Opaque white color. How to use: After cleansing, tone skin with toner, then apply all over face -> Wait 30-40 minutes for absorption and peel off the formed transparent film -> Pat in remaining essence and finish with emulsion or cream Pros: 1. Non-irritating scent. (Personally, I dislike artificial floral scents) 2. Very convenient as there's no need to rinse after masking. 3. True to its name 'Recuveskin Aqua Glow Modeling Mask', it leaves a glow after use. Skin remained glowy and soft even the next morning. 4. As I have oily skin, it felt sufficiently hydrated without applying emulsion/cream after masking. (For dry skin types, finishing with emulsion/cream as instructed might be beneficial) 5. The mask peels off cleanly and smoothly, causing no skin irritation.
ConsThe opening where the content comes out needs improvement!! (As it tends to harden over time, you need to apply quickly, but the small opening made it very inconvenient. Also, after about four uses, the back of the pack burst, possibly due to the pressure from squeezing ㅠ) No other downsides to mention.
Tip1. It seems to peel off more easily when applied thickly rather than too thinly. 2. I regularly exfoliate about twice a week, and I found that using the Recuveskin Aqua Glow Modeling Mask after exfoliating resulted in even more radiance and smoother skin texture, which was very satisfying. 3. Following the instructions, I tried applying cream after masking, but due to my skin type (oily + sensitive), it felt too heavy. Instead, I found that layering toner several times before masking worked perfectly without needing to apply cream afterwards.

Everything was fine until April when, perhaps due to the weather, my skin became severely dry and rough. I tried everything from moisturizers to sheet masks, but it was so extremely dry that even immediately after application, it wasn't enough. My skin remained dry and rough instead of becoming moisturized. I used the Modeling Mask for Inner Glow a total of 4 times over two weeks. The color appears white but becomes transparent when applied. The scent was slightly reminiscent of cucumber or aloe - not unpleasant at all! On the first day, after cleansing, I applied my usual essence and toner, then put the modeling mask on top. Worried it might not peel off if applied too thinly, I applied a slightly thicker layer on my cheeks. I peeled it off after about 25 minutes. I was concerned it would be painful and irritating to remove, as is often the case, but surprisingly, it came off very easily, even where I had applied it thinly. Afterwards, I applied a moisturizer. Oh, but the difference from the previous day was remarkable! First, there was a noticeable feeling of hydration, and the roughness had decreased. Thinking I was onto something good, I used it again about 3 days later, and there's definitely a big difference between using it and not using it. One of the best things is that unlike regular sheet masks where you have to throw away the wet mask and either absorb or wipe off the remaining essence, with this one you just peel it off - no wetness left behind, no need to pat in excess product! In the photos, there's a noticeable glow right after peeling it off, though it might not be clearly visible in the images. Overall, I'd give it five stars! While it's a bit pricey, considering you don't need to apply it thickly and don't use it daily, it seems to last a while, so it's not terribly expensive in the long run.
ConsIt peels off well even with a small amount, so you don't need to apply too much, which is great. If I had to pick something to improve, it would be the drying time. Waiting about 25 minutes was quite challenging for an impatient person like me. However, given the results, it's definitely worth the wait!
TipInitially, I only applied toner before the mask, but then I got a bit greedy and tried applying it after moisturizer - it felt even more hydrating that way!

Here's my honest review (Combination, Sensitive Skin): ♥ Texture: It's sticky like a white paste. ♥ Scent: There's a slight alcohol smell initially, but it fades quickly and isn't irritating. It didn't sting my eyes. ♥ Application: Not the easiest to apply. Using hands leaves a mess, so I opted for a hygienic silicone brush. Both methods were a bit challenging, to be honest! ♥ Usage Process: After cleansing, I applied toner and a light serum before the mask. The instructions didn't specify the amount, so I applied a thick-ish but thin layer. The mask looked uneven and milky-translucent on my face - not the prettiest sight! Being warm-natured, after 5 minutes the bumpy texture melted into a smooth, glowing layer. (Touching my face, I felt a jelly-like film and some oiliness on my fingers) I left it on for 30 minutes with no cooling effect, itching, or skin tightness - very comfortable. Removal was painless except for the eyebrow area. There was minimal residue, which was convenient. ♥ Results: Honestly, I had low expectations due to its simple, small packaging. But wow, what a pleasant surprise! I'd only applied toner post-cleansing to test the mask's effectiveness. When I removed it, my skin was glowing! I was shocked by the radiance. My skin felt as plump and smooth as if I'd used an expensive nourishing cream. The hydration was incredible. While powder modeling masks leave skin feeling soft and moist, this one provides both hydration and a beautiful glow. Perfect for my combination skin! Another plus: Unlike powder modeling masks that require measuring, mixing, and rushing to apply before it sets (not to mention the cleanup), with Recuve you just apply and you're done. So convenient! ♥ Check out my photos for a better understanding (I had just bought a Forencos tint, hence the lip stain!)
ConsThere are a couple of downsides. It's a bit pricey, and despite the small amount, the opening is narrow, making it hard to squeeze out. Please improve this, Recuve! While the ingredients are good and I experienced no side effects, those with oily skin should be cautious as it might cause excess oil production.
TipFor combination skin like mine with an oily T-zone and dry U-zone, you could save product by applying the Recuve mask only to the dry areas. When you have time, use a powder modeling mask. When you're in a hurry, go for the convenient Recuve Skin Pack! Personally, I'm saving it for special occasions - it's too precious to use often!

Some modeling masks can have off-putting fragrances, but this one was pleasantly neutral. ✓ The design is sleek and clean! ✓ When it was time to remove it, there was no irritation, so it wasn't painful or difficult! In fact, I felt a bit of a thrill peeling it off - it was fun to remove it all in one go! ✓ At first, I was worried it might feel tight or drying as it seemed to dry very thinly, but there was no such issue. It was lightweight yet thick enough that I didn't have to worry about it dripping.
ConsThe tube opening is too narrow! Because of this, I found myself wondering how long it would take to squeeze out enough for my whole face. Especially when dispensing the product, you need to use more force than expected due to its thick consistency, and it doesn't come out easily. If you apply some, then squeeze more out, the first application starts drying quickly. The quantity isn't very generous. While powder masks can be inconvenient to mix, they're usually more cost-effective. In this case, since it's pre-mixed, I didn't feel it offered great value for money. If you apply it too thinly, it won't peel off properly. At first, I struggled to find the right thickness for easy removal, which made peeling it off difficult. Due to its thick consistency, I felt bad about the amount left on my hands. If it were slightly more fluid, I could have used all of it. The texture is like a very thick paste that keeps sticking to your hands, which was disappointing. I'm not sure about any dramatic effects yet... I think I need to use it more to tell.
TipUsing a mask brush to apply it seems to result in a more even application. Applying with hands can lead to some areas being thick and others thin, which can be tricky.

I was pleased that it came with a guide booklet. The cream texture was so fascinating! It had a slight viscosity, but after applying, it transformed into an incredibly thin film-like layer! The scent wasn't overpowering, making it comfortable to wear for extended periods. Initially, I didn't know how to apply a thick layer on my skin, so I spread it thinly. Even with a small amount, my skin felt incredibly hydrated and smooth!
ConsAt first, not knowing better, I only applied a thin layer, which made the mask difficult to peel off. The amount of cream needed for the face is more than expected, but the opening of the tube is too narrow, making it challenging to squeeze out the product!

It contains only one fragrance and is rich in gentle moisturizing components. * Scent The scent suits my taste perfectly. It has a pleasant fragrance. I usually prefer unscented products with no irritating ingredients. While I often feel uncomfortable with scented products, this one has a mild and comfortable fragrance. * Irritation There's absolutely no irritation, it's very gentle, and my skin felt comfortable. It applies cool and smoothly. * While wearing I enjoyed the cool and hydrating sensation while it was on my skin.
Cons** Squeezing it out is extremely difficult. While they likely chose a tube for hygiene reasons, due to the mask's texture, it doesn't come out smoothly like a soft cream. It's very stiff when dispensing. To apply a sufficient amount, you need to squeeze multiple times, and it requires a lot of force to get it out. The opening is also too narrow. For this type of mask, a jar format might be more convenient. * Post-removal hydration While it feels cool and hydrating during application, after removing the modeling mask, I only felt a moderate level of moisture. It didn't give an intense hydration boost, just a sense of skin refinement. Because of this, using another cream afterwards was necessary.
