/Mine had Carbomer lower on the list, before Phenoxyethanol, if that matters./
This mask is perfectly servicable. Nothing extraordinary. It's hydrating, plumping and smoothing. Neither calming nor irritating. No special effects.
Smells like an old lady's perfume, but the fragrance isn't overpowering and fades rather quickly. Fabric is thick, clingy cotton. No protective extra layer. Good fit for small-ish faces, big eyeholes, short nose flip. Little leftover essence in the bag, not drippy, but what left when I was done with my face managed to make my body a sticky mess (well hydrated sticky mess). Stays moist for 30 mins and longer (got bored later, but it was still possible to squeeze enough essence for my legs).
For die-hard glycerin lovers mostly. I have dry skin so on me it dries matte anyway.
