Designed to hang from both ears, this unique mask helps to fight the appearance of sagging and provides additional care with hydrolyzed collagen and botanical extracts including ginger, rice, camellia, jojoba oil, sunflower oil helping to plump up the skin with moisture. The chin is tightened with enhanced structural life and firmness of the overall face.
Ingredients:
Thoughts: When I received this mask, I was excited to try something new. I have never tried a mask for the jawline.
Here's a closer look at the mask.
Here's how I look with the mask.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's no noticeable scent while using. I just sniffed the product and there's a slight floral scent. It's refreshing and reminds me of spring/summer. Secondly, I like the packaging. It's simple and clean looking. I like the black and yellow design. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of foil-like packaging. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse and bag. The dimension of the mask is good. Since it's stretchable, it should fit all face shapes as well as behind the ears. The thickness of the mask is on the thick side. You can unfold, as well as, stretch without the fear of ripping. It comes with a backing that you take off and it has a sticky residue. It feels like Band-Aid without leaving a sticky texture on the skin. The sticky residue helps stick onto the face and you can do other things while masking. The texture on the outside is velvety soft. I am not too sure what that does. Third, there are no leftover essence at all. I did not even see or feel any on the mask itself. I'm not too sure if this mask is supposed to even have some. With that said, it's easy to use. After cleansing, I applied the mask. There's a hole in the center of the mask. I pulled that over my chin. At the ends of each flap, there's another hole. I pulled those holes over each of my ears. The direction said to mask for 30 to 40 minutes. I masked for 40 minutes. It was extremely comfortable. It did not feel like I was wearing any masks. Once 40 minutes was up, I peeled the mask off. I was nervous it would pull my skin and it did not. It was easy to remove and did not leave any sticky residue. It did not leave any residue behind. My skin did not absorb anything. I think this mask just lifts and firms around the chin and jawline. It makes sense why this mask exist. Koreans are into V-shape chins. I did notice it seemed slightly firmer but not much. Lastly, my shape returned the next morning. I'm glad I got to try this product. I honestly don't think it did anything. If you want a V shape with this kind of mask, I think it's better to apply right before sleeping. The next morning when you remove the mask, you will see a difference. This is something you need to do in daily basis to see results. You will not get much using this mask once. With that said, I am not too sure but I could not find this product on the website. I'm guessing it's discontinued. It kind of makes sense if it is.

Pros:
* No scent whatsoever.
* Simple and clean looking packaging.
* Well-made and sturdy packaging.

Cons:

Would repurchase: No.
