You know what turns a good Saturday into a great Saturday? Checking the mail, finding a slip in there notifying me that I have a package waiting at the front office, and going to the office to be handed a nice big Innisfree-branded box!

It’s time for the first episode of my 15-part foray into the land of the Innisfree It’s Real Squeeze Mask! We’ll be starting with a review of the Black Berry sheet mask.
