I haven't reviewed sheet masks in a long time. For this post, I will review some masks I was gifted from a friend.

I took this picture from my Instagram. I already reviewed TonyMoly Essential Mask in Aloe and Pomegranate and Etude House Essence Mask in Hyaluronic Acid. For this post, I will focus on Purederm.

Thoughts: I've heard of Purederm masks and always wanted to try them. I just couldn't find them in the Korean stores. For that reason, when I received these sheet masks I was stoked. From the two, I was most excited to try watermelon. It's so unique. For that reason, I tried watermelon first.

The packaging is so simple and I love the color. For some odd reason, watermelon isn't listed on their website. Either they're discontinued or sold out.

Here's the packaging for apricot.

Here's how the mask looked on me.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, both masks had a scent. I wasn't too keen on the watermelon scent. It was very waxy smell and just unappealing. Whereas, the apricot was sweet and actually smelled fruity. It smelled like an apricot. It was heavenly! Secondly, it had a decent amount of leftover essence. There was enough to apply onto the neck for that singular night. If you're looking to use the essence for the following days, this isn't it. Third, the sheet itself isn't completely thick but it definitely isn't thin. The thickness is pretty decent or at least for me. I also thought the dimension was good. I love that it has enough to cover the jawline. I just wish the nose area was a little bit bigger for my wide nose. Lastly, I noticed the essence dried quickly after I took off the mask or either my skin just absorbed it. Even though my skin absorbed the essence, I still didn't have to apply moisturizer afterwards. I let the essence work it's power overnight. In the morning, my skin looked hydrated and youthful.

Pros:
* Comes in a variety of scents.
* Apricot was sweet and smelled like a fruit.
* Leftover essence to use on the neck.
* The thickness of the mask is on the medium; not too thin that it'll rip and not too thick to weigh it down.
* My skin absorbed the essence quickly.
* Hydrating; did not have to moisturize afterwards.
* Skin felt smoother.
* Look youthful the next day.

Cons:
* Can be hard to find in stores.
* Watermelon smelled waxy.
* Sheet mask in the nose are is too thin and short.

Would repurchase: Yes, for apricot.
