I grabbed this on a whim because I was out of my usual masks and Walgreens was right there. Expected nothing. Regret nothing.
My skin looked like I’d chugged a gallon of water for three days straight. No clingy residue, no weird film. Just plump.
It’s a single-use sheet mask. Costs $2.99. The claim: “hydrates and revitalizes with hyaluronic acid.” I tried it because I’m cheap and curious.
Thin-as-hell fabric
So thin you can see your face through it. That’s a good thing — it doesn’t slide off when you stand up.
Packs 25ml of serum
That’s more liquid than some $8 masks. You’ll have extra to rub on your neck and hands.
Zero fragrance
Smells like nothing. My sensitive skin didn’t even blink.

Hyaluronic acid is the star — it holds 1,000x its weight in water. But there’s also glycerin (the boring workhorse) and allantoin (calms irritation). No alcohol, no essential oils. It’s clean in a way drugstore stuff rarely is.
- Hyaluronic Acid: pulls moisture deep into skin
- Glycerin: locks it in so you don’t dry out after
- Allantoin: soothes redness and minor irritation
- Tocopherol: Vitamin E, a gentle antioxidant

The serum is watery, not goopy. It drips a little — keep a towel handy. But it absorbs in under a minute, and my face felt cool and bouncy, not sticky.
After two weeks of using one every Sunday, the fine lines around my mouth looked softer. The weird part? My morning moisturizer started sinking in faster. That never happens.

My skin looked visibly smoother and less thirsty for about 24 hours. It didn’t fix my texture or erase a pimple. But for a quick hydration hit? It delivered.

This is the best $3 you’ll spend at a drugstore this year. I’m buying six more.
