[Skincare Product] Be A Sleeping Beauty- Review: Hada Labo Perfect Gel (3-in-1 Hydrating Gel) x Sandwich Masking Method
Note: I mosaic-ed some of the background as my bed is unmade. I'm clearly self-conscious of my unmade bed, so.
Fair, Bright and Bouncy skin from within with Hada Labo 3-in-1 Arbutin Whitening Perfect Gel!
Its named "perfect gel" for a good reason; it offers the skincare product benefits of Essence, Moisturiser & Paper Mask!
Arbutin is extracted from the bearberry plant which offers effective whitening results, enhancing skin fairness, targetting dark spots and renewing dull skin for clear and fair skin. Hada Labo Arbutin Whitening range contain a high concentration of Arbutin which offer maximum whitening results.
Our skin is constantly losing moisture to its surroundings, especially due to factors like stress, UV rays and air-conditioning. Skin is moisture-deficient when the water content of the horny layer falls below 8-10% and becomes dry and cracked. The horny skin layer is hydrated by water from deeper skin layers (transepidermal water loss) and normal perspiration.
Moisture in skin is vital in healthy skin, the skin's protective function may become impaired when it is less supple.
Hada Labo 3-in-1 Arbutin Whitening Perfect Gel contains 3 trinity efficacious ingredients that penetrate within and work on the skin synergistically:- Natural Arbutin: High concentration levels at 3% of Japanese pharmaceutical-level Arbutin to offer effective whitening results. Enhances skin fairness and targets dark spots.
- Efficacious Vitamin C Concentrate: Proven anti-oxidant enhances collagen production, inhibits the appearance of dark spots and reawakens the appearance of dull skin.
- Hyaluronic Acids (HA) and nano-Hyaluronic Acids: HA is a natural component found on skin. The duo-HA molecules instantly hydrate and lock-in moisture, keeping skin soft, smooth & bouncy.
I've my fair share of experience with oily and acne-prone skin, btw my skin is legitimately not teenage any longer. I can't emphasize enough on how damaging the environment is for our skin, my skin can't thank me enough for this product. My packed schedule has in turn resulted in my scrimping of time to care for my skin. And the dryness snowballed into more facial disasters.
An office lady? Look no further! Fight off the first signs of ageing with this uh-mazing product.
This tub has a turn lid, my main gripe with the product is that it is so prone to contamination! Haha, must be a guy who designed this. Remember to use either a spatula or a clean finger to handle this!
This gel is translucent and has the texture similar to a light jelly. Akin to the sleeping mask packs in the market expect that it is fragrance free! Since this product can spread so well, a little goes a long way as a 20-cent-coin-size is all you need for your entire face!
The gel was quickly absorbed, not sticky nor greasy. My hand does feel softer and more hydrated after its application, like a sponge absorbing the HA molecules!
I like to use it as a sleeping mask, by layering a thicker coat on my face. It does however leaves a light film of sheen on the skin. Sounds familiar to the Korean Glowy skin trend now? HAHA Its slimy when it's rinsed off my face in the morning. And my face feels squeaky clean! Not the tight, taut and uncomfy squeakiness, but of hydration and plumpness. My skin tone does look more even overnight, especially more noticeable on my acne marks.
Because of the film of sheen, I don't use it in the day, unless I'm wearing it beneath makeup. This breezes the application of BB creams when it provides a smooth canvas for you to paint on!
I'm all prepared to ditch those fragrance-loaded korean sleeping packs! Always settle for the best! HAHA

“三明治面膜法”
Sandwich Masking Method
Wait, don't go yet! HAHA Yea, you're still on the same site. Next up, I'm introducing the Sandwich Masking Method! Not sure if you've heard of this one already but it has been popular in Hongkong and Taiwan for years now. Probably no english translation either too LOL.
I will normally leave this on for 30-35 minutes before any special occasion. Frequency wise, I'll recommend this once a week? I've grown precautious and overly wary with overfeeding the skin. Luminosity will be redefined la! Pores are more plump and less visible. As if your skin now has the potential to squirt water out from every touch! HAHA!
This masking methods allows masks of different properties to be
used at the same time, acerbating absorption of both masks. The outermost paper mask keeps the gel mask moist.
1) Apply toner
Use a cotton square to apply toner on your skin, this preps the skin for the later skincare absorption. The fibres on the cotton square removes surface impurities. My current favorite is the Leaders Insolution Active AC Toner.
Alternatively, you can also use the Hadalabo lotions especially if you have already wiped your skin with the cotton squares not long ago. You don't want over-exfoliation! With a few drops of the lotion, cup your face with your palms, this increases the temperature and promotes absorption.
2) Layer your gel or sleeping pack thickly.
My favorite part! This is so soothing and comforting especially in our humid weather. For the purpose of this collaboration, I'm using the Hada Labo Arbutin Perfect Gel. You can use any other sleeping pack or gel moisturizers.
3) Seal up with a sheet mask
You can either use these compressed sheet mask tablets and soak them up with your toner or use those store-bought paper masks. I like using sheet masks more, #lazyperson. Since I bought these Dermal Korea Collagen Essence Masks, I'll be fully utilizing them.
(Collagen masks though unable to replenish collage in your skin directly, their capability to hold in moisture shouldn't be underestimated!)
