It’s time for a new Korean face mask: Beauty Friends II Coenzyme Q10, an essence sheet mask by Vanedo, because sometimes an extra kick to fight dryness and ageing is super welcome. I’ve taken a lens to analyse it…

This essence face mask is part of the huge Beauty Friends II by Vanedo “packed and pocket” skincare range: sheet face masks rich in natural extracts for all kind of skin conditions.

Beauty Friends II by Vanedo Coenzyme Q10 essence mask sheet pack is suitable for all skin type and has a main anti-ageing action…

it promises to reduce free radical damages, whilegently cleanses and moisturizes our skin.

The product: packaging

The Beauty Friends II by Vanedo Coenzyme Q10 essence mask sheet pack comes carefully folded inside a package with illustrated instruction and contains 23 gr. of essence.

Formula and texture: the mask
The Beauty Friends II Coenzyme Q10 essence mask sheet pack by Vanedo, exactly like the Snail 23gr. essence sheet pack mask and all the other Beauty Friends II masks,has a round-ish shape that’s slightly flattened at both sides. It has a high-quality texture and it’s soft to the touch. Because of its shape, it doesn’t cover completely my face and creates uncomfortable folds.

Formula and texture: the serum/essence
This sheet mask is soaked in a transparent fluid with a fresh-floral fragrance. This treating essence isn’t sticky and gets absorbed into the skin rather quickly. Quite pleasant!

How to use
The Beauty Friends II by Vanedo Coenzyme Q10 essence mask sheet pack can be used both at room temperature, warmed up (placed inside its bag in warm water at 50C° for 2-3 minutes) or, as I recommend, cooled down. The steps are basic: after washing your face, apply your favourite toner to prep your skin, then “wear” your mask and relax for 15 to 20 minutes. After the removal, I suggest slapping gently your face to help the essence penetrating into the first layer of the skin. Then just continue with your regular skincare routine.

The Beauty Friends II by Vanedo Coenzyme Q10 essence mask sheet pack has such a fresh scent and a nice texture that’s really pleasant. Apart from a slight pinching sensation and a localized redness affecting the driest areas of my skin, the final result was what I was looking for and hoped. My skin felt refreshed, smooth and extremely elastic…

PROS

smells pleasantly,
no-sticky formula,
hydrating,
leaves the skin supple and elastic.

CONS

shape (does’t fit the face),
might be hard to find,
may tingle (dry and very sensitive) skin.

I’ve found more pros then cons, hopefully, there’s enough essence to be stored for at least another application, but not too much.Should I recommend it? If your skin is like mine, that is a combination type, you can go for it. I truly recommend it in case of early signs of ageing and skin condition connected to a light loss of hydration. But be careful if you have very dry and/or delicate skin: you should test the essence before the use and shorten its application time. . Go for it but keep in mind to apply your moisturizer as soon as possible to make the result lasting longer.
