Magicstripes Magnetic Youth Mask ($22)
According to the brand, "this sheet mask uses integrated magnets to improve blood circulation, flush out toxins, and promote a healthy blood flow. Formulated with moisturizing aloe vera and calming chamomile extract, it enhances your natural radiance for a more youthful-looking glow". These are all of the benefits the mask is supposed to give you: accelerate cell renewal; prevent micro wrinkles from turning into deep wrinkles; slow down skin aging; detoxify and depuff; improve skin metabolism; improve peripheral circulation; and replenish and soothe the skin (what a mouthful!) Basically, the black dots incorporated into the mask are the magnets (which is actually pretty cool). You leave the mask on for 30 minutes. When you take the mask out of the pouch, it is soaking wet, however, unfortunately, it starts drying out rather fast (even if you put the rest of the essence on). I liked the fact that it is designed for the under-eye area as well. You see the effects more on the next day-- the skin is more even and healthy. Overall, it is an interesting (high tech) mask. It is, however, rather expensive.
