   I love this for that special occasion. It gives a wonderful glow to the skin pre-makeup. I like how it hooks over the ears so it hugs the face tightly and securely so I can do other stuff instead of wasting my time laying down so my normal soppy wet sheet mask doesn’t slide off. I put this on while I blow-dry and style my hair; before I do my makeup. It takes me about 15 mins to get my hair done so the timing is perfect. I also like it for those days when I don’t want to wear makeup and I want my skin to look luminous and glowy without resorting to highlighters. LOVE THIS and will buy this mask till the day CT stops selling it.

   I’ve always hated the feeling of traditional sheet masks on my face. They’re gloopy, cold, and uncomfortable. This on the other hand is soft, dry, and practically weightless. At first, it felt like it was doing absolutely nothing, but after removing 15 mins later…my skin was transformed. It was hydrated, plumped up and looked fresh from a facial. On the flip side, it was slightly irritating, but I might’ve left it on too long.

   When reading the previous reviewer’s verdict I couldn’t agree more by saying that I am also a huge fan of Charlotte Tilbury’s makeup, especially her lipsticks, blushes, full fat lashes mascara and eyeshadows. However, so far similarly I have not had much luck with the skin care in the line. From the Magic Night cream which I’m sorry to say I find simply awful to the Clay Mask which I think is average I find all CT skin care products by far too heavily fragranced and they didn’t perform well on my dry, sensitive skin. I first tried a sample of this mask and was hesitant, but I eventually did and I must say I am pleasantly surprised. I use it after cleansing and toning my face. Putting on this dry mask with the pink side of the fabric facing the skin and massaging it on my face in order “to activate the ingredients” as the instructions state makes me feel like a mummy and I definitely would not leave the house with it on. That said, wearing the mask does feel comfortable enough while doing things around the house and it stays on well. In fact the loops around the ears are a little tight and my face is by no means wide or long. The product only has a very faint, soft fragrance of natural oils, nothing perfumey or lingering, which to me is a big positive. After 15 minutes I remove the mask and fold it back into the packaging because each mask can be used up to three times. I do see that my skin is more hydrated and looks and feels good, it is a very different experience compared to a wet sheet mask, but the concept of it is growing on me and I am planning on using this type of mask alternating with my usual wet sheet masks. For that reason I have repurchased and will continue to keep this in my skin care routine. The set of 4 masks which equals a total of 12 uses retails for $80 before tax so I find the product somewhat fairly priced because of the ease of use and because it works well for me. Magic? Maybe not, but in my view it deserves 4 stars. I recommend giving this a try for dry to very dry skins.

   Best worn while holding a bowl of candy on Halloween. This thing is spooky-looking. You loop it over your ears and wear it for fifteen minutes. During those fifteen minutes I look like a goalie who lost his hockey stick. Or the fictional character Michael Myers. Therefore I chose to avoid human contact while wearing it.

   It does moisturize the skin well. I wasn’t a fan of Charlotte’s very heavily scented Goddess Clay Mask. Aside from being ridiculously overpriced, it annoyed me because it would never dry down and always felt clammy to me. So even though I received a free Dry Sheet Mask to try, it sat unused for weeks until I finally opened the packet.

   The Dry Sheet Mask doesn’t have an overwhelming fragrance, and it’s not messy. It comes in a foil packet that prevents it from drying out. When I removed the mask after fifteen minutes, my skin felt as though I’d applied lotion to it. It was soft. People with dry skin might find it useful. However, my skin isn’t especially dry so I’m probably not the target audience for this mask. The results were not astonishing or earth-shattering and I don’t feel compelled to purchase another one.

   I feel that this is overpriced. It costs $22 for one mask or $80 for four masks. Maybe if you charge the set of four, you can wear one mask to knock over a bank before the bill shows up. The mask was non-irritating and moisturizing but you can get similar results from using a nice cream that doesn’t frighten the neighbors. I love most of Charlotte’s makeup, but this is another skin care product I’ll ignore.
