[Skincare Sharing & Product Review] Hydrate, hydrate & more hydrate! Let your skin drink more water with Bio-Essence Aqua Droplet Sleeping Beauty Mask!!

Recently, I have discovered one more secret to younger looking skin........

Yes.. first of all.. ahem.. about my new hair... XD last week went back to my old hairstylist Geri
From Silkcut salon for a haircut.. and also to colour my hair.. initially wanted to have just one
Colour.. but then thought of doing something different so under her "persuasion" =P decided to
Do this kind of colour treatment with one area different colour for a change. Result: nice and refreshing And I really do like it a lot. (Though at first a bit not use to it. XP)

Ok. Back to earth. Hmm.. no... its not some hundred dollars serum or potion nor is it something difficult And complicated to use. In fact, the keyword we are going to talk about today here is: Hydration

Simple. Isn't it? But when we talk about hydration here, it's not just gulping down that 8
Glasses of water everyday. That is more for the body hydration (which is something equally
Important as well.) But what about the skin? Yes, you heard me right. Our skin needs to drink
Water too!

And with this, a lot of people seems to have the idea or impression that by drinking at least
8 glasses of water everyday, our skin will naturally stay hydrated. In a way right and wrong.
But as we drink down that glass of water, it will first of all naturally be absorbed by our body
System and organs, such as liver, kidneys and our blood stream. And I would say that the
Amount of water that reaches our skin dermis and epidermis layers are in fact quite little.
Now I'm no doctor here but it all does seems to make a little bit of sense here doesn't it? ;)

So in fact, the best and quickest way to let our skin drink water and stay hydrated is simply by applying!

And with this, I have discovered one product that day by day and when you woke up in the
Morning, your skin stays well hydrated.

The new Bio-essence Aqua Droplet Sleeping Mask.

Now before I move on, I know most of you would probably be rolling your eyes...by now.. XD
Thinking "Another sleeping mask..?" Yes.. another sleeping mask.. But honestly having tried so
Many different type of sleeping mask, this is unlike anything I have ever seen before. So hear me
Out first ok? =P

Honestly, when I first saw this on the shelf at Watsons, I was excited at first. "Yay! another new Product!" but after awhile, I hesitate.. should I give this a try? I still have one more at home not finish yet.. (I'll explain the reason later why I stopped using that.. besides being lazy at times.. XD) Nevertheless, I bought it.



 When I reached home, I immediately open it up. It comes with a protective seal to
 Prevent contamination.

White in colour it was inside.. looks a bit thick and rich to me. I thought.. so I scoop a pea size of the Product and tried it out on the back of my hand. From the moment my fingers touched the white paste And applying it on my hand, I was immediately sold. Here's why:

The white "paste" was the most light and feathery texture I have ever felt. It wasn't thick and rich

At all as I thought. So I applied on the back of my hand.

Within 3 seconds upon spreading, it immediately break into water droplets! At that moment

I was so amazed by it! I have never seen nor used sleeping mask that form into water droplets before.

 

I gave my hand a gentle pat and within about 5 to 8 seconds, it was fully absorbed into the skin

With no sticky feeling. (Compare to the famous Korea sleeping mask, you all should know which

One right? =/ when I used that and woke up in the morning, I felt like my skin had one layer of oil on It. =X)

 

The packaging itself was also what attracted me to purchased it. I love the translucent blue

Which has a calming and soothing effect. Makes you think of water and even the more want

To keep on using it. XD

 



Simply amazed by this new "technology" I did a little research on it.

The main three key ingredients that forms this wonderful product are:

 

1) Power nano hyaluronic acid

-Nano sized hyaluronic acid, provides instant hydration with moisture retention capability.

2) Hyaluronic acid
-To lock in moisture by forming large water network

3) Cranberry extract
-Nourish and protect skin from UV damage and harmful free environment radicals.

With the 2 different type of hyaluronic acid (My favourite key ingredient =P) it offer up to
3 times more hydration than before. And the water droplet technology is actually called
"Bio Aqua Crystal Technology" meaning upon application, the capsules of the Bio aqua crystals
Will break into water droplets to rapidly penetrate into the skin to hydrate it and leave a thin layer
Of protective emollient film on the surface to lock in the moisture. ^_^ No wonder it absorb so fast
And so amazing!

Skin is much more hydrated and supple after applying. ^_^

 

I started to used this almost every night after my daily beauty routine. I applied it after my moisturiser

And just go to bed with it. When I woke up in the morning the first time I used it, I immediately felt the Difference. My face does not have the "oiliness" feeling and when I looked into the mirror, I can
See and felt that my skin becomes less drying (I zzz in air con room every night =P)

I have been using it for about less than 3 weeks. Yet each morning when I woke up, I simply love

How my skin look and feels. It feels more hydrated and supple and there seems to be a certain glow
In my skin too. When our skin gets hydrated and plump, our skin will also tends to look younger too. I also love the fact that its not oily and does not leave a sticky feeling behind.

Also another amazing thing I realised and to share with you all is: Have you all ever had
The experience whereby in the morning you wake up and want to quickly put on makeup and get out
Of the house asap for work? Especially when applying foundation/BB cream yet somehow it seems To take Forever to blend in well. ( Yes, we have bad hair days and bad skin days as well..=) )

Useful Tip: Try applying a light thin layer of this mask as a moisturiser before putting on your primer or Foundation and you will realise that your foundation is much easier to apply and blend and most Important, your foundation will stay on better and more long lasting.

In overall, I love this product very much and I'm still not even halfway through my first tub yet but
I can already see myself going back to buy again for the second and probably even third tub after my
First one is finish. And pricing wise is definitely so much more affordable. ^^

So that's about all for today. Do check out their entire new range of Hydra Tri-Action hydration series as Well which includes a cleanser, toner and gel moisturiser. Don't forget, when you get well hydrated and Plumper, supple skin, you will tend to look younger too! ^o~

Hope you all enjoy today little sharing!
