Face masks have always been my favorite in my skin care routine. I always love the feeling of coolness it gives on my face. So when I found another mask from the Dis-A-Pore Althea box, I became immediately excited because I get to try a new kind of mask and feel its difference from other masks that I've tried.
My husband can vouch that I am a face mask fanatic. I even share my stash of masks with him and he likes it. This one is new to me as there's two step and the effect was just great! It is also not common to buy these at regular beauty stores here so I feel privileged to try this myself. Thanks to Althea for coming up with the Pore Box.
PACKAGING. It's pretty simple. Packaging looks minimalist with its colors. This mask comprises of two parts, the first one which is for Soothing and the second one for Vitalizing. Step 01 is the one in black and Step 02 is the white one.
The main component on both pack were written on each side so you 'll know what goes to your skin. Jeju Water and Jeju Seaweed together with herb makes the Soothing part. The Vitalizing part is made up of Vita Water, Salmon Eggs and Beta Glucan.
The black portion doesn't have English translation but it has images which kind of explains what to do. The white one however explains it all!
FRAGRANCE: Contrary to what I'm expecting, the smell is a clean distinct smell. I thought those salmon eggs would give a nasty smell but it smells pretty clean.
TEXTURE: The essence on the mask upon opening is pretty decent. Unlike the regular ones I've tried which is overwhelming with essence on the pack even after pulling out the mask, this one doesn't have too much on it. However, the mask sips the essence itself making it better than others. The mask itself is also thin but with very powerful transfer of essence unlike others. (I'm currently writing this with a different face mask on and this one I'm wearing is heavy on the face) I love the texture of TU Mask Pack than this one I'm currently using right now.
EFFECT: With two different types of mask, I realized that the regular face masks I'm using are fooling me. TU Mask Pack is way soooooo much better. The skin absorbs the essence properly. The fit is slightly perfect on the face. It sits neatly on the face even after the 20-minute mark. (This is one of my dilemma. Usual face masks are so fussy they always want to jump out of your face. If you know what I mean) Plus the after-effect was the bomb! I like how the Vitalizing Mask hugged my skin so tight that the next day, I had so brighter skin than ordinary days. I feel that it tightened my pores bigtime!
PRICE: Same with what I share on the first two reviews, this product is included in the Dis-A-Pore Althea box which makes this particular product exclusive for the box. Once the price is up on their website, I will edit this post.
Yay for me! (。◕‿ ◕。)
- Got this for FREE. Hello Althea!
- Has English translation for easier instruction.
- The essence was absorbed fast by the skin.
- It snugged tightly on the face.
- It tightens the pores and makes the skin look brighter.
Nay! (。◕︵◕。)
- Can only be bought online. No physical stores or the like.
- Only included in the box. Hoping it will be available individually.

I think in terms on effect, this is the best for me so far!I just don't know if it will be the same when I discover it's individual price. We'll see about that!
What do you think of the review? Let me know your thoughts.
XOXO 💗
Wow, this is another facial mask to try. I'm not really into it, but there are times that I seemed to be so curious with product like this. Anyway, I like how detailed you are in elucidating this product. A very honest and well written review and I find it interesting to try. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.
ReplyDeleteWelcome.
DeleteI have tried a few masks. So far, I am still on the look out for better masks. The price of the box definitely will make people hesitate to try it. I agree that I hope they sell this product separately.
ReplyDeleteI haven't looked into it but I know it is sold separately. Th box is curated to target pore issues. And this item is one of the great items in doing so.
DeleteThis is a very interesting face mask, I have to admit. I have never seen anything like it. I am used with the ones that are cream-like, which you put on your face from a jar. It's good to read that the Tu mask is very light and that it does do a great job cleaning.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of the best I've tried so far. No, not one of the best. It's the best when speaking about hierarchy of most liked masks.
DeleteI am still searching for the perfect mask ever since my favorite mask was phased out. I have been several masks already but not really much happy with them. :)
ReplyDeleteYup. I have that feeling too. I got this one and when I tried it, I know I loved it already. But haven't tried purchasing it individually.
DeleteThis is the first time I am seeing 2 different combinations in a face pack.
ReplyDeleteAnd salmon eggs as ingredient?!! Haven't seen these in the shelves here. Thanks for introducing.
I think the salmon egg was the ingredient that made the mask so soft and smooth. I like the effect though.
DeleteOh I tried wearing a facial mask before, the translucent one and it feels great haha
ReplyDeleteit's interesting that there are huge variety of them.. i'm surprised that Salmon Eggs is one of the main ingredients here
It always feels great for me too.
DeleteI am also very fond of buying from Althea because their products are really promising. I am a sucker for masks! I've been searching for masks that I can fall in love to and I guess I should try this one. Thank you so much for sharing! :)

I also wanted to buy this in individual pack. I hope they'll have it soon.
DeleteSo long I have been wanting to order products from Althea but I just couldn't find the right products because they all seem new to me. Afraid I might get the wrong one and my money goes to a waste. But with reviews such as this, I am starting to get familiar of the various beauty products from Althea.
ReplyDeleteYou can start with individual items to be safe. You can pick those that will really target your need. Boxes like where this item is included appears way cheaper though.
DeleteI am not really kikay but who wouldn´t want some pampering. And I´ve heard a lot about Althea from my workmates but I haven´t personally tried any product from them. I should really ask my workmates to remind me whenever they´ll order from Althea so that I can try this too! One thing though, instructions in English versus cartoon instructions. :P
ReplyDeleteIt would still be better if there's English instructions, right?
DeleteI have only tried a couple of masks but never got to use something like this with 2 parts. I am most interested in its ingredients as they seem to be all-natural, is that right? I sure hope I could get to try this one out very soon. I am not a heavy make-up user so the chance to subscribe to an Althea Box is non-existent. Will definitely check here from time to time for updates on this mask.
ReplyDeleteYou can browse Althea though for skincare and not makeup. They have a wide range of skincare products.
DeleteBought 5 of this since it is 25Php only per piece..
ReplyDeleteWell , so far so good.. 😅
This mask is really nice for me. Thanks for informing me. I'm gonna buy more. That's really affordable already.
Deletehi
