Great Hydrating Masks
-05.15.13
These would very well and ofer alot of hydration especially good to use before an event or after a long trip. If you have dry skin, these also help with bringing hydration back to your skin. They leave a dewy feel to your face afterwards. Just wish there were more of them in the box.

Review 2 for Essence Mask - Travelmate

Such a weird product...
-05.06.13
Quick Take: awkward, somewhat effective
I gave it two stars for 1) portability during travel, as expected, and 2) it did offer some nice, cooling, moisturization. However this is one of the oddest products I've ever used, and don't really see that the benefits outweigh the awkwardness of it. The cutout face mask is awkward to apply, drippy, doesn't adhere too well to the face's surfaces (nose; outside eye corner), and is generally...well, creepy looking. Sure it imparted some moisture, but after 20 minutes of this weird experience, I just wanted to move on. So odd.

stress cruncher...
-05.03.13
Every May 4th is a PTSD enducing day for me so i have to figure out ways to take special ways to take carr of myself so i bought a pack of these when i get super stressed and omg!!! Its not just the smell, not heavy but pretty and upbeat, very light afterwards, but the way my skin feels is like i just came out of the spa. I have to recommend these to anyone who needs wind down time. Plus, the mask results last a good week if you use a light lotion soap.

Love these
-04.26.13
Quick Take: hydrating, smoothing, comfortable
I normally don't usually use sheet masks but these are great even for sensitive, combination skin. I get dry patches occasionally and these hydrate those areas while not being too much for my oily areas. I'll usually keep them on for around 45 minutes and after taking them off, voila! Dewy glowy skin. I have already repurchased these and have recommended them to friends.

Best I've tried
-04.23.13
Before this mask, not a fan of the "sheet mask" - this is amazing! When I travel and look a little "worn", this plumps my and softens my skin without any oil or residue. I am never without these in my travel bag!!!!

A must have for travel!
-04.14.13
Quick Take: amazing, a must have for travel, moisturizing
I recently flew across the USA for springbreak, and my skin did not like traveling. It was dry and my makeup was not applying properly. I located the nearest sephora and the lady told me to buy this mask. I was hesitant, but when I get back to my hotel room I was impressed. It was goopy, but cooling and relaxing. I had to lay down and watch tv while it was on though or else it would fall off. I couldnt talk either or it tried to fall off. After the mask came off, my skin felt brand new!!! it was soft and radiant and best of all my makeup worked with my skin again!! I will be taking these with my when I travel from now on!

immediate moisture
-04.07.13
Quick Take: moisturizing, soothing/ comfortable, well priced
I first tried this mask after a very drying flight and long hours of work. I saw significant results: intensely moisturized and glowing skin; my skin felt cushioned and soft. There's a generous amount of excess gel in the pack, so I used it on my neck as well. The mask shows good results but I found that the recommended 20-30 minutes was not long enough for the product to be absorbed; I left it on over night and massaged the extra gel into my the next morning.

great for travel
-03.04.13
Quick Take: hydrating, messy, great for travel
This mask is quite big for my face but I do like it for it's hydration. It is a bit messy though - which I didn't expect and when taking it off I feel that I need to wipe it off my face afterwards - so that's kind of a con for me

So Weird
-03.04.13
Quick Take: wet, goopy, sloppy, hydrating, cooling, slimey, messy
I love cloth leave-on masks and so was very excited to try When's travel masks. But I am confused by this mask. It is so goopy, wet and slimey that even though I think it was effective, I was so disturbed by the way t felt that I haven't been able to try it again. I will give it another try because I bought the box, but am weirded out by this mask and unsure if I would recommend it to anyone.

Review 14 for Essence Mask - Travelmate
bambicosmo
yes it works
-02.23.13
This mask works really well after having outdoor activities or face exposure to severe weather. I go to snowboarding twice a week. After sun/wind/cold exposure, my skin gets tired and sensitive. Either this one or 10pm relieves and soothes my skin quite well.
I usually leave it at least 30min or longer until the bio-cellulose sheet becomes thin. Though this mask seems targeting travellers, I recommend this to those who have active/outdoor life-style as well.

Disappointing
-02.23.13
I thought I had written a review a week ago regarding this product but do not see it here. As the title indicates I was disappointed. Was looking for a moisturizing mask. Unlike skii masks this one was not made of a cloth like material but rather a silicon like material, which is suppose to help the product penetrate better. Maybe if the "serum" itself was a good product, the results would have been better.

Restored My Dry, Desert Skin!
-02.13.13
I was dying to try this mask so I made a special trip to Sephora just to pick it up. I turned it last night and it was amazing! I agree with the other reviewer about the face shape being off a little off as the eye holes were brushing along my outer lash lines while wearing it, but I quickly got over it by how amazing the moisture effect was. You wear the mask for about 30 minutes and then pull it off and rub any residual product into your skin for added moisture. With it being winter and me living in the southwest this mask rescued me from my flaky, scaly skin! The very next morning I noticed an improvement in my skintone, even in the driest areas. I will be buying this again and again!

Obsessed
-01.30.13
I tried this mask on the recommendation of a sephora employee. Winter in ny is not kind to my skin. The mask is a bit tricky (for me at least) to position correctly but it is 30 mins well spent. My skin was glowing and luminous after applying this. I can't wait to use it again!

SephoraPro
Wow!
-01.25.13
The difference in your skin after one use is astounding. I wasn't sure when I saw the concept of the mask. But it sure works! The ONLY reason for 4 starts instead of one is that the face shape is a little off, I have a hard time getting it onto the cheek area near the side of my nose! But it's totally worth it for the results anyway and I will biy again! Amazing!

Hydration !
-01.22.13
Quick Take: hydrating
I got this for my miami trip since I had a 6 am flight and I knew I was going to be very tired. this mask is so hydrating! I love the feeling of it and its not one of those typical paper masks. This one is actually gel material! I love it ! I recommend trying this out~
