My Beauty Diary Black Pearl Mask

Hi~

Today I'm doing the Black Pearl Mask from 我的美麗日記/My Beauty Diary. It is a Taiwanese brand but I know it's very popular in all of Asia. It's also getting popular in America, some My Beauty Diary masks is being sold in Walmart of all places!!! So cool.

I've done MBD masks before and I like them but I haven't tried the black pearl variety. That sounds like a lie since these masks come in packs of ten but I got this Christmas special on Amazon... it was like two each of the popular varieties. I thought it would be a good deal so I can figure out which ones I like the most and then buy those in packs of ten~

I heard this one is really good soo... I'm excited~

My Beauty Diary masks have the best cotton masks in my opinion. They stay onto your face, feel really full of serum and are SUPER thin~ The pure smile masks leave my face feeling great but the masks themselves are thick, slimy and gross feeling.

These masks are so see through! See how thin they are! And how red my ugly face is...

Once the mask is on for a while they get white and less see through.

Here's the mask after I was done with it so you can see the shape and stuff~

Aaand... here are the results! Of my face!

The first is before and the second pic is after. Excuse my big nose and redness and everything!

I had really high hopes for this mask but it didn't really really deliver. My marks were still red and usually after most face masks, they are lightened and calmed down a lot. Not really a lot with this one... also, my skin felt soooo sticky after this mask... but this is normal with MBD masks. I just go to sleep after and I end up fine! Hopefully my skin will look better tomorrow morning, but we'll see...

My face definitely looks better after the mask but it wasn't a huge difference in real life. Pictures aren't that representative sometimes~

Usually my skin looks noticeably smoother and brighter but I didn't feel this way with this one... I wish I could have liked it! I like other MBD masks, I guess the black pearl isn't for me~ even the dabo eco lifestyle red ginseng mask made my skin feel more bright and those are not famous like MBD!

Also, I was reading the ingredients... where is the black pearl in these masks? Can somebody identify? Lol!

Rate - 2.5/5

Pros
Super thin mask
Lots of serum
Moisturizes

Cons
Didn't really brighten my skin as much as other face masks
Skin kind of looks the same after the mask...
Overhyped

This mask wasn't bad... it just... wasn't good enough to be memorable or for me to want to buy it again! Such a letdown but at least I tried it~

Bye~
