Bought by me
I bought a pack of 12 LAPCOS sheet masks from Anthropologie earlier than the pandemic (is that how everybody else thinks of time?) and was intrigued by the minimalist and really literal packaging. I’ve heard good issues about this Korean/American model and its inspiration from Korean skincare traditions and the sunny and inventive lifestyle of Los Angeles (LAPCOS stands for “The Los Angeles Cosmetics Challenge”). I really feel like this explains why the packaging is not fairly as “cutesy” as basic Korean sheet masks because it undoubtedly seems like there’s a North American inspiration behind it. The objective of LAPCOS is to share tried and true formulations that can hopefully grow to be staples in your life-style similar to “cracking open a bottle of ice chilly kombucha”. Oddly sufficient, I form of get this as I really like kombucha…I hate that I sound a bit cliche, however I really like ingesting it if I am bloated or if my abdomen feels a bit off so large kombucha fan right here!
What makes the Seaweed masks particular? Product of lyocell fibers, this sheet masks accommodates hyaluronic acid, an excellent marine complicated (composed of kelp and algae) to purify whereas hydrating, papaya fruit water to situation and squalane to enhance pores and skin texture. Observe that each one of those substances are within the prime half of the substances record. What I really like about algae in skincare is that my pores and skin at all times feels so contemporary afterwards, however hydrated too. It is like a clarifying therapy with out the aggressiveness of an exfoliant and my pores and skin feels prefer it has been softened.
I beloved how comfortable the sheet masks was and that’s because of the lyocell fiber masks. This materials is so plush feeling and was a pleasure to use to my then flawless and shingles scars-free face! I do know, I do know I am being dramatic, however my pores and skin is certainly one of my favorite bodily options so I believe I’m going to be a bit hung up on what occurred for awhile.

What makes the Charcoal masks particular?
