This is probably one of the most famous Laneige products, having existed for almost five years, and recomended by the famous and beautiful Song Hye Kyo. Many of my readers have been surprised in the past that this is not one of my favorite Laneige products. This is not because the mask is not good quality, but because it does not exactly fit my lifestyle and I cannot find any need for it. Regardless, I kept repurchasing this mask for almost 2 years now. Why? Please read on for my review of this famous night-time mask.
Pros:
1. Moisture: moisturizes very well. Every time I feel extremely dry (which is not often) or got burnt or irritated by a product, I would exfoliate lightly and directly go for this mask.
2. Smooth and dewy skin: Every night I use this, I get smooth and dewy skin the next morning. My skin feels very soft in the morning and very elastic. I was told that this soften wrinkles as well, but luckily, I'm not in a position to know. :P

3. Relaxing scent: I usually do not like scents in products, but this scent is very relaxing as Laneige describes it
Cons:
1. Sticky Skin: The mask does not absorb as fast as I like. Whenever I use this mask, I plan ahead of time so that I can leave the mask on for an hour before going to bed
2. Richness: I have a feeling that this may be rich enough so that you cannot use this every night without causing problems.
My love and hate relationship:
This is a very impressive product, and very moisturizing, especially good for emergencies. However, I do not have such emergencies often, and I find that the water sleeping pack do not give me any benefits my night cream does not. So I always keep a tub at hand just for emergencies, but I do not find it necessary very often.
Overall: Great sleeping mask providing great moisturization. However, if you do not need the extra moisture, it does not offer many benefits besides your regular night cream. I would advise using this for nights when you know you would not get enough sleep or are under extreme stress.
