MEDITHERAPYTension Up Mask 5EA - Korean Collagen Face V Line Lifting Mask - Hydrating Firming & Skin Tightening for Sharp & Sculpted Contour - Matrixyl & Peptide Gel Facial Mask for Youthful Radiance

These collagen masks are unique and quite different from the dozens of Korean face masks I have tried before and I don't mean that in a negative way. These masks are highly effective at providing smooth, hydrated skin that presents with a healthy glow. The mask comes in 3 separate pieces that have a light floral scent. The pieces are like a stretchy gel and woven fabric in one. They are quite sticky, and I find it easiest to remove the white backing first followed by sticking it to the face before removing the clear backing. I then stretch it into place. This mask skips the nose, which I found interesting, but includes under the chin. That chin piece fixes to your face via loops that go around your ears. The mask stays put quite nicely and I can walk and talk with no issues of it falling off. The directions state to leave this on 20-30 minutes, and for that duration, the mask feels very cooling. I love the results of this mask. I have no irritation whatsoever but clearly have more hydrated and glowing skin. I would buy this again when I run out.

Be sure to check the photo tutorial before placing each piece, as I realized I pulled the wrong direction when I tried to “wing-it.”STEP ONE: My first attempt with the middle piece—the first piece you place—was a bit off. I stretched it outwards instead of upwards under my eyes, but I was able to reposition it next to my nose and evenly across my cheeks snug to my lash lines. The mouth fit was excellent, covering fine lines around my lips better than most masks.STEP TWO: The chin piece—the second piece you attach—which loops over the ears, is really unique and well thought out. It not only treats under your chin all the way to your neck, it keeps everything snug, and prevents the mask from drooping off the chin and jaw.STEP THREE: I struggled a bit with final, forehead, piece—stretching towards my temples instead of upwards, resulting in some missed coverage at the top of my forehead near my hairline. I'll try pulling up next time, but I still think this mask is too shallow for my deep forehead.●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●[COVERAGE OVERVIEW]:BETTER THAN USUAL COVERAGE:• Around lips• Jawline, on and under chin• Under eyesMISSING COVERAGE:• Entire Nose• Temples• Top of forehead●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●[SCENT AND FEEL]:The scent is lovely – soft, clean, and slightly sweet without being overwhelming. The mask feels cool and soothing on the skin. It wasn't overly moist or gelatinous but had a nice, light compression that felt good.●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●[RESULTS]:My skin looked tighter (less puffy) and felt very soft with improved color (but, not a glow or hydrated look). However, I didn't notice any reduction in fine lines. (But, see notes below.)●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●[A FEW NOTES]:• APPLICATION TIMING: The instructions recommend using this mask as the last step in your skincare routine. I missed this and will try it next time.• TREATMENT ASPECT: This mask is intended for multiple uses per week for best results. Don't expect dramatic results after just one use.• SUN SENSITIVITY: Contains Retinol, so use in the evening and wear sunscreen during the day.• POSSIBLE ALLERGENS: Contains fragrance and dye. Patch test if you have sensitive skin.●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●[FINAL THOUGHTS]:While I didn't see any plumping of fine lines, I was really pleased with how much tighter and softer my skin felt. Given my application error and the potential for cumulative effects, I'm interested to keep using these. If these masks were a little less expensive, I'd treat myself to them just for how enjoyable the cooling compression sensation is. For now, I'm going to wait and observe any cumulative effects from using the remaining 4 treatments before I try to find room in my budget for them.●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●～●

I started out as skeptical but curious. Having just had one of my first "senior" birthdays, I'm feeling particularly sensitive about my slightly sagging skin, especially around my chin line. The package is very clear that the effects of this mask are temporary, which I appreciate - I know very well there's no magic mask that will take my wrinkles away permanently. The mask material is a very sticky (on both sides), gel-like substance. I'd compare it to craft glue dots in texture. It was easy to put on, which I also appreciate because I often struggle with masks. Once on, it is not comfortable at all, with a very tight feeling. But I suppose that is to be expected, considering its intended use, and it is tolerable. I did have to re-adjust my eye area several times because it felt like it was pulling my lower lid down off my eye and was just more than I wanted to tolerate. But even after adjusting it, it still stuck to my skin just fine. I left it on for about 40 minutes (the directions state 20-30, or more if wanted). It did not start to self-peel off. It did completely dry out. Peeling it off is not uncomfortable, but not enjoyable either - it's pretty stuck on there. There is no moisturizing, brightening or tone enhancement (and the product does not say there is - there is one specific intent of tightening loose skin and that is very clear - I'm just reiterating it). My main complaint is that it leaves a thick, sticky substance that did not wash off easily from my skin. I had to rub my skin with a towel to peel it off, and even then had to pull some glue-like gobs off my face.

Meditherapy Tension Up masks are a departure from the normal sheet masks I’m used to. There are 3 several pieces you apply separately. They are very sticky upon application, but not drenched in wet product, as many sheet masks are… so upon removal, I was able to apply my usual products. The mask felt nice and cooling once on. My skin did look a bit depuffed and toned afterwards, so I would use these again before going out / an event / etc. Each pack comes with 5 masks.

I recently tried the MEDITHERAPY Tension Up Mask, and I have to say, it's a unique experience; the way it wraps around your face definitely gives you a sense that it's doing something! I noticed my skin felt tighter and looked a bit more lifted after using it, which was a nice confidence boost before heading out for the evening. Plus, my skin felt really hydrated afterward, so it's not just about the firming effect. It's become a bit of a pampering ritual for me when I want my skin to feel extra taut and refreshed.
