Brands I Really Like
Listed below are a few of the brands I really like. I tend to shop only Korean and Japanese brands when it comes to Mask Sheets because they have better ingredients with higher concentrates. Reputable Korean and Japanese brands skip the step of putting so much emphasis on the base of the product but rather their focus is on the active ingredients. And bonus! They cost much less than most American Mask Sheets!
Some of the masks I really like are made by the following,
JAYJUN
Etude House
Leaders
Mediheal
