Doesn't Sting

Apply thinly, really thinly. A small amount produces plenty of foam, so applying a thin layer is crucial. A thin application results in more even foam distribution and easier rinsing, reducing post-use hassle.

Follow up with soothing and hydrating care. After use, while the skin surface feels clean, it also feels like the protective barrier is slightly compromised. It seems necessary to immediately apply a hydrating ampoule, soothing toner, or cream!

The foam distribution isn't even. While the cheeks get a rich lather, areas like the forehead, nose bridge, and around the mouth seem to produce less foam. Even when trying to apply it thinly and evenly, there's a noticeable difference between facial areas, which is slightly disappointing.

Rinsing takes time. You need to rinse several times with water to remove all residue! Also, since it's a product that combines a cleansing foam and a mask, it leaves a slight brownish tint in the sink, so you'll need to clean that as well.

The carbonation dissipates. As it's a carbonated bubble cleansing foam, it initially has a clay-like texture when first opened, but as you use it, the bubbles seem to become less dense. It seems like you need to use it up quickly after opening.

When you apply it to your face, bubbles naturally start to form, which adds a bit of fun to the skincare routine! Since I'd often seen this product on Instagram, it felt even more exciting to use.

It's almost like having a spa treatment at home. After use, while my skin doesn't feel squeaky clean, it does feel like the oil has been well-balanced, leaving me feeling refreshed.

At first, the tingling sensation was so intense that I had to wash it off immediately. But after a few uses, I got used to it and it became more comfortable. Many people say they can't use it because of the tingling, but when you first open the lid, you can hear the carbonation fizzing and bubbling! Once some of the carbonation has dissipated, you should be able to use it without as much discomfort. Just make sure to close the lid tightly to prevent the carbonation from escaping too quickly.

The scent is subtle and not overwhelming. Perhaps due to the basil content, it has a fresh, herbal aroma rather than an artificial fragrance. Even those sensitive to scents should be able to use it comfortably.

This is quite a good home care mask for those who often experience clogged pores or need pore care! Thanks to the bubble formula, it's fun to use, and the finish is refreshing - it feels like you're getting both a face mask and a cleansing foam in one. However, those with sensitive skin should be cautious about frequency of use, and keep in mind that rinsing can be a bit cumbersome.

For those curious, I recommend trying it once or twice a week as a special care treatment!

홀리바질 버블 딥 마스크

Using a brush can help you apply the product more effectively and neatly.

While the scent isn't overpowering, it might not be to everyone's liking.

As someone with sensitive, oily skin prone to blemishes, I've noticed a significant improvement in my skin condition after using this product! I highly recommend it, especially for those struggling with excess sebum or oiliness.

When you apply the product to your skin and wait about 3 minutes, it starts bubbling up in a slightly funny way. It's actually quite entertaining! There's no tingling or discomfort - your skin feels completely at ease. After waiting, simply rinse it off thoroughly with water. While using a brush might be even more effective for tackling sebum, I found that just using my hands to rinse worked great too!

There's definitely a noticeable reduction in sebum production! With summer in full swing, my T-zone and sides of my nose were producing a lot of oil, but after using this, my skin texture feels much smoother. I love how it seems to reduce sebum production and give my complexion a clearer appearance.

I've always struggled with excess sebum and blemishes, so I really appreciate how this product controls oil without irritating my skin or compromising hydration. My skin stays moisturized and comfortable, not dry at all. Plus, it's safe for sensitive skin, so I don't have to worry about irritation like with some other blemish-fighting products.

If you're dealing with oily skin concerns, you absolutely must try this! I can't recommend it enough!

How to Use:

1. Cleanse your face with a foam cleanser, then gently pat dry with a towel
2. Apply the mask with your hands (using a silicone spatula might be more effective)
and leave it on for 2-3 minutes
3. Once the time is up, gently massage the foam into your skin using circular motions
4. Rinse off thoroughly and you're done!

Room for Improvement:

- The price seems a bit steep for the amount of product you get
- The foam forms quickly, so you need to apply it to your face rapidly
(It might be better to use a silicone spatula for application. Applying with hands might be too slow)
- Need more time to fully evaluate its effectiveness

Shipping Condition:

When it arrived, the package was nestled safely in bubble wrap. Thanks to this, the product box reached me in pristine condition, without any creases or dents.

Skin Type:

I have oily skin that lacks hydration. In the past, I struggled with acne-prone skin, but now it's mostly cleared up. Currently, my skin isn't particularly sensitive.

User Experience:

As soon as I opened the lid, I was greeted by a fizzy, bubbling sensation. When I applied it to my skin, it was fascinating to see the foam expand within just 3 seconds! After a few moments, I felt a slight tingling on my face, almost as if tiny carbonated bubbles were popping on my skin.

Effectiveness:

I'll need to use it for a bit longer to properly assess its impact on sebum control and blackheads. I'll make sure to update on the results after extended use.

When using this product, it's important to consider your skin's sensitivity and tolerance for active ingredients. While it may be effective for some with extremely oily skin, those with sensitive or reactive skin should exercise caution. The quick-foaming action and potential for irritation suggest that it might be too harsh for daily use for many skin types. As with any new skincare product, it's advisable to patch test first and introduce it gradually into your routine to see how your skin responds.

*Sensation: When the bubbles start forming, my skin becomes incredibly itchy. Although this is supposed to be the normal sensation, the itchiness was so intense that I thought something was wrong.
*Cleansing: The bubbles form so quickly that you need to rinse it off faster than the recommended 3 minutes in the instructions. If you try to massage it in, the itching becomes more severe, and it doesn't cleanse effectively. I had to rinse it off as quickly as possible with the shower.
*Skin type: This probably isn't suitable for those with super sensitive skin. Rather than frequent use, it might be better as a once-a-week treatment, particularly in summer when pores are clogged with excess sebum. I was a bit disappointed that my blackheads weren't noticeably reduced after using this product.

*Texture: Initially, it has a slippery consistency when applied to the skin. However, it quickly foams up after application. It feels like you've applied a thin layer, and even if you try to add more, the foam prevents further application.
*Recommended skin type: Extremely oily...? While it claims to cleanse pores, I didn't see significant results. However, those with excessive sebum production might have a different experience.

It's even better if you massage with your fingers before rinsing off the foam.

As much as I love the product, I'm disappointed by its small size. I'm afraid I'll use it up quickly...

The size was a bit smaller than I expected.
When I opened the lid, bubbles started rising as soon as it touched the air.
* It came with an extra inner lid for double sealing!

The texture had just the right amount of hydration, making it absorb well.
It glided on incredibly smoothly. However, bubbles start forming immediately after application, so you need to apply it quickly. At first, the bubbles felt a bit ticklish. If you leave it for a while, the foam gradually builds up and thickens. As you can see in the photos, the foam really rises abundantly.

The foam particles were very fine and soft, giving a wonderful feeling on the skin. After leaving it on for about 3 minutes and then massaging, it felt like my skin had been reset to its original state.

Washing it off felt like rinsing away a mud mask. It cleansed thoroughly without leaving any residue on the skin.
After rinsing, my skin felt squeaky clean, as if it had been deeply cleansed right down to the pores. It's perfect for taking care of excess oil and blemishes.

✅ What I really loved!! ✅

I've tried many bubble masks, and usually when you apply them, a thin layer of foam forms within seconds but quickly subsides. The moisture evaporates, making it dry out, and if you don't wash it off quickly, it becomes hard to rinse and can irritate the skin.

But with this one, even with a thin application, the foam rises abundantly, and instead of subsiding over time, it actually becomes even more voluminous.
When washing it off, it remains moisturizing without losing hydration, causing no irritation to the skin. I really, really loved that aspect!! It gives the feeling of thoroughly removing excess oil, so I highly recommend it for those with oily skin.

I don't think there were many downsides, but it did make me a bit itchy? Other than that, everything else was great!

I really loved it! It's surprisingly effective at controlling sebum - that's a big win!

First off, the amount seems a bit small, and I'm not really sure about its effectiveness.

It wasn't as harsh on my skin as I expected, and overall, it wasn't bad.

This product seems effective for pore reduction but may not be suitable for those with super sensitive skin. It's important to patch test before full application to avoid potential allergic reactions or burning sensations.

There's a slight irritation, so I wouldn't recommend it for sensitive skin. However, apart from that, it's great!

My pores had been getting larger lately, causing me concern, but after using this, they've completely vanished!

My routine is to apply it once, then when it foams up, I remove the foam with my hands. After the emulsification process, I apply it again as a mask and leave it on before rinsing.

It's a bit too itchy, and the amount is quite small... So I end up using more than I should.

I'm about to buy another bottle because I've used up my current one. This product is absolutely incredible! It's one of the items that has truly helped eradicate my blemishes. I'm on my fourth bottle now... It's seriously amazing.

If you apply it too thickly, it can block your nostrils and get in your eyes. Apply it in moderation.
I use a spatula to apply just a thin layer.

Although it's a 90g container, with a regular price of 25,500 won, it does run out after a few uses.
When you open it to use, if you scoop it out slowly, you'll notice bubbles forming inside the container.

I've been using this product twice a week for a month.

I enjoy the tingling sensation, and after 3 minutes, I gently massage it off while rinsing. You can really feel the deep cleansing effect.
Immediately after washing, my skin feels smooth and looks clearer.

Recommended for those who aren't easily irritated by itching!

It seems to build up gas as it bubbles up. It was fine until delivery, but when I took it out of the box and left it outside, the inner seal sticker burst on its own, causing chaos in my house.

Every time I open the lid to use it again, it immediately starts bubbling up, making me feel rushed. It's inconvenient to apply.

I wouldn't recommend using this when your skin is sensitive. The bubbling sensation makes my skin very itchy, and the day after using it, I suffered from contact dermatitis for several days.

On days when I wear makeup or sunscreen, I used to feel uneasy even after cleansing, like my skin wasn't completely clean. But after using this face mask, my skin feels incredibly smooth and soft to the touch.

The scent is also pleasant and quite nice.
