This weekend’s Reviewpocalypse continues with two masks that I purchased on a whim, from a brand I’ve never tried before. SNP stands for Shining Nature Purity, and I first became aware of the brand when the always lovely Fraulein Schnee reviewed the SNP Bird’s Nest Eye Patch on Berries in the Snow. I kept her review…

I’ve also updated purchasing links and stuck a gallery of new packaging…

It’s been a while since I’ve done a sheet mask or hydrogel mask review, and that vexes me. It vexes me terribly. Sorry, Gladiator is on. I still love these one-use wonders just as much as I ever did, and probably even more now that I’ve been using them in the mornings whenever I wake up…
