Editor's Summary
I recently tried the Elizavecca cotton face mask with milk extract, and unfortunately, it was a bit of a letdown. The packaging is definitely interesting, but personally, I'm not a fan of the design - it gives me a headache. I picked up this mask on Wildberries in a set for 55 rubles, which is cheaper than buying it individually, so I thought I was getting a pretty good deal. But when it comes to the actual mask, it's just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. It does even out my skin tone, which is a nice bonus, but the essence is super sticky, which can be a real pain to deal with. The smell is weird and not exactly pleasant, and the mask doesn't stay on my face very well, which is frustrating. Overall, it's a decent mask, but it's not something I'd recommend.

I recently tried the Elizavecca cotton face mask with milk extract, and unfortunately, it was a bit of a letdown.
I picked up this mask on Wildberries in a set for 55 rubles, which is cheaper than buying it individually, so I thought I was getting a pretty good deal.
The packaging is definitely interesting, but personally, I'm not a fan of the design - it gives me a headache. But hey, that's just my two cents.
The back of the packaging has all the usual stuff - the ingredients, instructions, and manufacturer info, which is always a good thing to see.
The seller included a sticker with Russian instructions, which was a nice touch - it shows they're thinking about their customers.
The mask comes with 23 ml of product, made in Korea, which is always a plus - I love supporting Asian brands.
The packaging has little notches on the sides, making it easy to open without scissors, which is always a bonus - I hate struggling with stubborn packaging.
When I pulled out the mask, it was almost flat - no adhesive strips, just a wet piece of fabric. That was a bit of a surprise, but I guess it's better than dealing with sticky strips.
I washed my face, applied a toner, and then followed the instructions - 20 minutes on a clean face, which is pretty standard.The Elizavecca cotton face mask with milk extract moisturizes and smoothes the skin, improves its tone, and has a soothing effect. After 10-20 minutes, the skin feels comfortable, looks moisturized, and is softer and more elastic, which is exactly what you want from a face mask.
The mask fit my face well, and the eye holes were comfortable, but the mouth hole was a bit small, making it hard to talk or drink coffee - that was a bit annoying.
The fabric was thin but didn't stretch or deform during application, which is a good thing, but the essence could drip from my chin for a while, and I had to apply the remaining essence to my neck, but there wasn't much.
The fabric on my nose was enough, which is a plus, but the fold where the mask was folded left a long crease on my skin, which was a bit of a bummer.
After 20 minutes, the mask was still damp, and I could have left it on longer, but I didn't. My skin looked more even-toned and refreshed, but the mask didn't reduce the inflammation on my nose or the redness on my cheeks, which was a bit of a letdown.
My skin felt more moisturized, but it was still sticky, and the essence hadn't fully absorbed - I had to wash it off, which was a bit of a hassle.I did notice a slight reduction in redness on my nose, but it was still pretty pink, and the mask didn't do much for my cheek acne, and it only smoothed out the smallest fine lines, which wasn't exactly what I was hoping for.
VERDICT: This is a pretty standard moisturizing mask with a comfortable design, but the results were underwhelming, and the smell and stickiness are major turn-offs, so I'd give it a solid 3 out of 5.
