Well, I dug up some photos that looked really nice and re-shot a sheet mask selfie, and boom. The pretty shots here were taken last May (!!!!!!) so for me to say that this review is overdue is a severe understatement!  The Vita Genic masks were a gift to me from a friend in Scotland who I met in October of 2016. You’d think I’d have used them all up by now, but that’s a real testament to how often I use sheet masks (i.e. not a lot). From a quick search, I can see that a pack of ten costs about £12.50 on eBay (and very overpriced on Amazon…) so they’re quite inexpensive as masks go. The sheet mask packets are a bit big and round, so depending on how much room you have for your masks they might be a little big for your container. I have all four varieties available:
The sheet is made of 100% cotton. It fits really nicely on my face. Of course the chin and nose are a bit funky but that’s always the case with me. The sheet is super comfortable and adheres well. It’s the return of the awful sheet mask selfie!The essence, true to the ‘jelly’ part of the name, doesn’t drip even though there is loads of essence in the packet! I’m talking 30ml! There’s enough to slather on your whole body. I used it to ‘top up’ my mask as it began to dry out, and I had enough to do it TWICE. (I probably could have managed a third time if I had another hour spare.) (K-Pop gifs are SUCH FUN. Why didn’t I do this sooner???)As for the effects? I never usually pay heed to how a mask affects my face, to be honest. I wear them as an occasional treat more than anything else, or just so I can do both my skincare and my revision in the evenings at once! I did feel very refreshed after using it although there was nothing in particular to note. Overall, I really like using these masks and they are certainly something I could see myself rebuying in the future. These 100% pure cotton sheet masks are infused with nine types of vitamins in the form of jelly essence to provide dedicated effects. The Hydrating version offers deep hydration thanks to infused Jeju oxygen water; the Lifting version features Jeju cactus extract to boost skin elasticity; the Relaxing version is infused with Jeju aloe extract to soothe and moisturize sensitive skin; the Whitening version is enriched with Jeju hanrabong extract to restore glow to dull complexions; the Vitalizing version features Jeju cherry blossom extracts plus collagen to rejuvenate skin; the Cica version helps to soothe tired skin with infused Jeju volcanic cluster and centella complex; the Pore Tightening version regulates sebum and refines pores thanks to Jeju spring water in its formulation.

Do Jelly masks really work?Fortunately, jelly masks can help to boost collagen production and give skin a firmer, tighter appearance. Natural ingredients work together to promote collagen production and prevent the breakdown of existing collagen fibres.

Let it absorb about 10~20 minutes.. Take off the sheet and gently pat to absorb the remaining essence.. Do you wash off jelly masks?Jelly masks have been popularized recently and are the next level of innovative skin treatments. These masks have a unique jelly-like texture, which is easy to apply and rinse off.
