Indulging in high end sheet masks is a luxury I rarely have the time to enjoy. And when I say time, I mean patience. The 111 SKIN Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask, however, elevates the experience with comfort and extraordinary results. Using advanced technology and potent ingredients, this posh British brand re-defines the sheet mask delivery system with remarkable results.
*THE* Mask
If you’ve shied away from sheet masks in the past (because no matter how careful you were, the result was still a dripping, leaking mess), don’t give up. You can stop looking around though. With its incredibly unique gel-like texture, the 111 SKIN Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask resembles a blend of cotton, rubber, and human skin and adheres to the face flawlessly. In a “Hello Clarice” kind of way. It does not slide nor move around, which to me is in and of itself innovation worthy of a mention. P.S. It smells divine.
Why is it so great?
111 SKIN takes pride in its high performance formulas. The Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask features one of the most advanced technologies in the world of skin care. Not only is the sheet itself made of fibers 500 times finer than average tissue masks and thus provides maximum product absorption, it is loaded with exceptional ingredients. With a hydroquinone derivative, Arbutin, it brightens while Silk Amino Acids, the building blocks of protein in our skin, deliver moisture and maintain healthy cell function. Top it off with Centella Asiatica, a plant extract that promotes healing and regenerates skin, and this mask officially covers all the bases… 111 what’s your emergency?
Details:
The 111 SKIN Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask is packaged in single use sachets. Each sheet is protected on both sides so unfold it gently, peel off the guarding layers, and apply it to a freshly cleansed face. Instantly cooling and refreshing, this mask feels both comfortable and extravagant. While you don’t have to lie down with your face up, I would avoid talking or laughing. Remove the sheet mask after 20 minutes and pat the remaining essence into the skin prior to continuing with your skin care routine.
Since there was barely any residue left, I touched my face before looking in the mirror. Holy sheet! Recognizing the range of great products I have tried, the immediate tightness and smoothness of the skin stand out as unusual and in a league of their own. My skin was visibly brighter, firmer and more radiant overall after a single use. 111 SKIN recommends using the Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask 3 times a week. I can only imagine the cumulative results.
Launched by the Greek born, British, and American certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Yannis Alexandrides, 111 SKIN was born out of the need for powerfully regenerating formulas to help skin heal post procedures. Named after his practice located at 111 Harley Street in London, every 111 SKIN product contains a unique patented formula called NAC Y². Tested by astronauts under conditions that age the skin more rapidly, this potent blend of peptides and antioxidants offers a true anti-aging solution.
Very much niche and truly haute, 111 SKIN is available at barneys.com in the US and harrods.com in the UK. Both net-a-porter.com and 111skin.com offer international shipping as well. Luxury comes at a price, however, as this sheet isn’t cheap. The Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask comes five to a box and retails for $160 or £85.
