éPure Membranous Jelly Masque

Went out to buy food for later, and had actually planned to stop by KFC to try out their new Crazy Crunch menu, but the rain spoiled everything. So here I am, sitting in front of my laptop sulking as I try out the all-popular éPure Membranous Jelly Masque.

It seems to be the new hype these days. Bloggers and celebrities are using this product and showing them off left and right. I was very tempted to try it too as it boasts so many functions which suit my needs. After careful consideration, I finally decided to let myself splurge a bit. But really it's to tame my shopaholic cravings as I impatiently await my posting letter to start work.

Anyhow, this product is unique due to its one-of-a-kind ACF (Active Cellular Factor). It contains many ingredients to help boost the hyaluronic acid content in your skin - the main component which helps to keep your skin moisturized. It also aims to brighten your skin, reduce blackheads and clogged pores, lighten scars and hydrate the skin.

This product comes in two packagings: boxed and jar. One box contains 6 individual packets at 30g each while the jar is 250ml. It also comes with a spatula to help apply the gel onto your skin. The gel itself is light yellow and smells lightly of medicine. It's rather thick texture makes it quite difficult to apply, and each time you need to apply a minimum of 0.3cm thickness to achieve the best results. Just apply and leave it on for about 30 to 40 minutes, then scrap off using the spatula before washing your face and continuing with your usual facial care.

Personally I find my skin rather dry after washing, which I find it weird because it's supposed to hydrate your skin. So I will apply my moisturizer or sleeping mask after using just to ensure my cheeks don't go too dry. I don't see a drastic change in my skin tone either, though it does look less dull after using. As for reducing blackheads and clogged pores, well, it remains to be seen.

All in all, it's a very useful mask if you don't have time for facials or are looking for a product which hopes to satisfy all your facial needs. The product itself is quite pricey, so it might make you hesitate a little. I personally don't love it as much as everyone else, but I will continue to use it a few more times to see the results. Fingers crossed!
