Review: 'My Beauty Diary' Masks

Hello and welcome to the Dark Side~

Have you heard of My Beauty Diary before? It is a very popular brand in Asia, widely known for their face masks. I heard so much about them and I wanted to see what all the hype was about. My Beauty Diary offers such a huge range of face masks, it was hard to decided which type of mask to get. I went for a pack of different types of masks so I could try them and see which one I liked the best.
 Price and Availability:
I purchased this on  Pretty and Cute.
It was $27.99 for 17 face masks.
Isn't the box so cute? It is Alice in Wonderland inspired  ♥

What does this Box contain?
  • Japanese Cherry x1pc
  • Red Wine x1pc
  • Strawberry Yogurt x1pc
  • Southern France Apricot x1pc
  • Bird's Nest x1pc
  • Mixed Berry x1pc, Black Pearl x1pc
  • Sake x1pc
  • Apple x1pc
  • Pearl Powder x1pc
  • Aloe x1pc
  • White Rose x1pc
  • Natto x1pc
  • Q10 x1pc
  • Cooling x1pc  (It really does feel cooling on the face)
  • Hyaluronic Acid x2pcs

The Mask
Every mask comes individually in a really cute pouch.The pouch has the folded mask as well as the the essence the mask is soaked in.
One thing I really love about these masks is that they are super moist, and they contain a lot of extra essence. When you take out the mask from the pouch, you can get the extra essence left in the pouch and apply it on your neck and chest.
Also, the mask is very thin, so it sits comfortably on your face. The mask is generically made to fit many face shapes and sizes, so it might not fit you perfectly.
It is instructed to keep the mask on for 20 minutes, but you can keep it on as long as 30 minutes or more. The masks stay really moist and don't dry up quickly. ^_^
After you remove the mask, you can wash your face or, as instructed, simply massage the left over essence on your face so it will sink into the skin.
After doing that, my skin feels so amazing! It feels moisturized, fresh, glowy, and healthy <3
These are great to use before any special events or just for a quick "pick me up".
Don't expect these to give you long term skin benefits. I feel that these are more of a quick fix kind of thing, but won't help long term unless you use them consistently. I have been using one every 3 three days or so.

PROS:
~Super cute packaging
~Masks are super moist and thin
~Extra essence in the pouch
~Variety of different types of masks
~Leave skin feeling amazing
~Actually contain and smell like the ingredient that the mask is named after
CONS:
~Not easily available in US
~Not long term effects

Here is two helpful charts to see what the each different mask is used for:

I will most likely do separate reviews on the masks that I really like, that caught my attention, or that I hate. So far I haven't hated any of  them, but we will see. I am still currently using them, and ordered a couple more. :D Thank you so much for reading, and I hope you all have a great 3 day weekend~

Have you used these before? If so, what did you think of them?
