It’s hard to believe that it’s been five years since I last reviewed MaskerAide sheet masks (see that review from 2014 here!). The brand has gone through different variations of their sheet masks over the years, as well as a more recent packaging update!

The formula itself remains the same on the newly packaged MaskerAide sheet masks, so if you loved their masks before, you can rest easy knowing that the product is still the same. I have to admit I’m sad to see that their All Nighter sheet mask has gone the way of the dodo – I *loved* that one!

I’ve admitted quite a few times over the years that I’m not a huge sheet mask lover just because they can feel quite slimy and cold on the skin. Thankfully, the MaskerAide sheet masks are one of the better fits for my face and they have more of a cream textured consistency to the product on the inside. If the mask isn’t a biocellulose format (which these aren’t) then I much prefer a creamy serum so that it doesn’t feel quite as slimy. So in that respect, the MaskerAide sheets masks are one of the better options for me.

Plus, with MaskerAide, you get the added bonus of tossing your coin at a Canadian-Korean brand. It always feels good to support local!

I was recently contacted to try out some sheet masks by MaskerAide. Not being much of a skincare junkie, I wanted to see what all the fuss was about these masks. The idea of a sheet mask has always made me giggle – I mean you basically end up looking like Jason Voorhees (just in time for Halloween!) for the length of time that it takes for the good stuff to soak into your skin.

Like any skincare product, I’m not expecting immediate results. I think the longevity of a product is really what will change your skin for the better (or worse). So for these, I was more curious on how my skin would react to them right away. Let’s take a look!

The first one I tried, also the very first sheet mask I ever tried, was MaskerAide‘s Pre Party Prep. The mask indicates it should brighten, prime and energize your skin. I wasn’t actually looking to go out the night I tried this mask on, but figured it wouldn’t really matter.

So how did it feel? Well, unfortunately, this was my least favourite of the three I tried. While wearing it for the twenty minutes the package indicated, my skin felt like it was slightly tingling and burning – which wasn’t especially pleasant.

After I removed the mask my skin felt kind of tight and not especially soft. I patted the goop off and then refused to put moisturizer on just to see how this would work out. These masks are supposed to be hydrating after all! After twenty minutes my skin definitely did start to feel hydrated and no longer tight. I didn’t feel like I needed moisturizer so I can say that this was definitely hydrating enough in the end, even though it was slightly touch and go for a while.

I *LOVED* this one! After my somewhat “meh” reaction to the previous mask, I was really happy to love the All Nighter mask so much. I tested it out during the day after having only gotten about three hours of sleep the previous night. It smells faintly of peppermint and was the most fun to wear, which sounds funny to say, but it’s true. I think this one felt slightly less goopy than Pre Party Prep.

All Nighter was way more refreshing, likely due to the peppermint scent. It was cooling and tingling in a way that really livened up my skin. I didn’t feel like I needed moisturizer at all after removing the mask and I didn’t have to wait it out till my skin felt “normal” again. Highly recommended.

The last one I tried out was Weather Warrior. This one was creamier in the package, but it didn’t have any scent to it like the All Nighter one did (which was a slight disappointment!). It claims to calm, sooth and heal your skin.

I didn’t like it was much as the All Nighter, but it didn’t make my skin feel tight like the Pre Party Prep one did. Out of all of them, I think Weather Warrior made my skin feel the softest afterwards. I wasn’t jonesing for moisturizer after I took it off and I kept petting my own skin because it was incredibly soft to the touch.

Final Verdict

At $6 a pop, these aren’t cheap masks, but they are fun to use and two out of the three (All Nighter and Weather Warrior) gave me results that I really enjoyed. Out of the three, I’d recommend All Nighter the most since it had a scent that really perked me up. These would make excellent gifts for the upcoming holiday season (think stocking stuffers people!).

You’re encouraged to use one of the masks every week, but they do indicate that you can use them daily with no ill effects. I did use two of the masks on back to back days and found that to be completely true: I didn’t react badly to any of the masks, nor did I break out.

Let me know if you’ve tried this brand out before and what you thought of their products!
