Welcome to my very first literal Roxy Tries post! One of my goals for this blog is to review skincare and makeup. I love trying new beauty products and why not give you the tea as they say, on the new products I try!
The first thing I'm trying out is the Shake & Shot Rubber Masks by DR. JART+. I ordered these the day they came out from Sephora. I love how fun they look and I've never tried a rubber mask before. These Korean rubber masks are typically mixed in a spa, but now you can do them at home. What originally drew me into these masks is the cute packaging. I know, it's not about the packaging but these are seriously adorable! I have heard how good their rubber sheet masks are, and these are the second generation of that original mask. They are one-time use for $12 which I think is a fair price for a high-end face mask. They offer four different masks each targeting different needs. I thought I'd get all four to see if there's a real difference between the masks and if they really do as they promise. Although I haven't used a rubber mask before, don't worry I'm no amateur! I've easily tried at least 50 different types of face masks! I'm interested to see how rubber masks will hold up compared to other types I've tried. I wanted to give these masks a far shot, and incorporate them into my normal skincare routine. I never use more than two masks a week, so I spread out these masks over two weeks. I exfoliate before applying each mask to soak in more of the goodness each mask has to offer.
Brightening Mask
This was the first mask I tried. I hate reading directions because no matter what, I tend to mess it up somehow! The directions for this mask are super easy. The "straw" in the baby's mouth is a plastic spatula. You take that out, mix both packets inside the cup provided and boom - ready to use. This mask is used for uneven skin tone, uneven texture, dark spots, blemishes, and dullness. This mask uses vitamin C and buckhorn fruit extract to achieve that. You have three minutes to apply the mask before it starts turning into rubber, and won't move around your face. I found this out the hard way. I was trying to take pictures of it mixed together before applying, and by the time I got to my forehead, it started breaking up. You keep this mask on for 15-20 mins. The mask didn't seem to harden at all, but did dry in spots, so I kept it on for 30. I found out although it is a peel-off mask, it doesn't completely dry down, it's normal for these masks to keep their rubber consistency. I was surprised how easily it removed, unlike peel off masks I have used in the past, this doesn't pull at your skin; taking this mask off was surprisingly refreshing. My face felt really cool and hydrated immediately after rinsing. The next morning I did notice some texture was gone. I don't suffer from dark spots, and I didn't have any blemishes at the time, so I'd say this mask did what it claims to do.
Hydro Mask
After a night out with friends, and having a few drinks, I knew my skin needed some hydration. I just can't hang like I used to! I have naturally dry skin, so I'm always in the market for an amazing hydration mask! This mask uses Vitamin B5 along with something they call "Expert Moist Complex" which is rich in Amino Acids. This time I made sure to apply the mask right away, so no hiccups there! This mask, in particular, had a cooling effect on my face while I was wearing it, which was very relaxing. I did not notice a surge in hydration in my face like I would have liked, but my face felt smooth the next day, similar to the brightening mask.
Soothing Mask
Soothing? Seriously? I found the first two masks to be the most soothing masks I have ever tried, so is it possible for this one to be the most soothing of them all? This mask is supposed to soothe and calm the complexion of redness, dryness, and blemishes using Vitamin K3. I did notice a tingling feeling in the areas where my face is the driest (around my nose and cheeks) that I didn't experience with the other masks. The tingling turned into a cooling sensation, which lingered long after the mask was removed. I noticed a difference in my complexion off the bat. My skin had a soft glow, that lasted a few days.
Firming Mask
I saved this one for last because I was the most excited about it! Being 29 and having a baby, I can tell my skin just isn't the same. At this point, I'm doing more anti-aging preventative care. This mask claims to be the solution for fine lines and wrinkles, loss of firmness and elasticity, along with dullness and uneven texture. They use Vitamin A (retinol) along with something they call Oxyforce - which helps support natural collagen. The mask was thicker and went on more patchy, without the cooling/tingling sensation I got from the other masks. This mask did dry firmer than the others and was less hydrating. My face did appear more plump and smooth after removal.
If you are here for the tea, here it is. The containers come with a lot of product. You have to use these masks as soon as they are mixed, and there's enough product left over for another person. If you want the most bang for your buck, split it with someone and make a night of it! The Rubber formula can clog your sink, so be careful! I had to fish some out of the sink which wasn't fun. The spatula however cute, was unnecessary and made it messier to apply. They recommend you shake these masks, not stir, so it serves no purpose. Get in with your fingers and you'll be fine!
Final Thoughts
I love how soothing all the masks were on my face. I always wear my masks before I go to bed, and these helped relax me to where I was ready to hit the pillow after my skin routine was done. After using these masks the last two weeks, I can tell a difference in the texture of my skin. Smooth like a babies butt! Do you need to try all four of these masks? I'd think not. The results were very similar, although pleasant. If I were to try one again, It'd be the soothing mask. I was the least excited to try this one - it's just not the type of mask I usually go for, but It was everything I didn't know I needed. The containers come with a baby face lid, and it totally makes sense. Your face feels like a baby after you've worn them. I love the fun containers they come in, and they are recyclable which is important to me.

ReplyDeleteHey Lindsey! First off, I'm sorry I'm just now seeing this - I had my comment notifications turned off by accident! But yes, I agree, it's a bit weird but it makes sense for their brand of a baby's face - Koreans I tell ya! ;)
