Hie Sharon,
I have just tried doing the powder mask and I tried twice. My 1st try failed

Wasted but luckily I was just using 1/2 of the powder. I did not know the mixture will dry up SO FAST! It dries up like in a flash no joke haha
My 1st attempt was:
1/2 mask powder + 10ml rose water
10ml of rose water is definitely not enough for 1/2 powder (at least not for me and I kiam siap don't want to use more saving the 10ml for the other 1/2 powder

). That is why I went and get some mineral water and when I came back the paste was almost rubbery! OMG! I swear I have only been away for like 10 seconds coz I was mixing my mask in the dry kitchen counter

I added in the mineral water nevertheless hoping it would emulsify the paste a little so I can apply it to my face (I try no to stir it too much or too long in case it got all dried up again). Well, it did got soft a little bit but it's no use. It has become chunks of small pieces instead of a paste-like texture. Tried applying it on my face (was hoping it would stick) but er it doesn't. So I have to throw it away.
I'm not giving up! Although abit sad seeing half the packet goes to waste. So my 2nd attempt:
1/2 mask powder + 10ml rose water + 10ml mineral water (already stanby this time lolz)
After I stir the mixture for 5 seconds, it quickly become a soft paste (although I would say it did not reach a yogurt-like consistency. Prolly need at least 15ml mineral water *make mental note*). I stop stiring and ran to my room to apply the mask. I was sooooooo worry it would dry up on me again, from mixing the mixture to applying the mask, I took less than 30 seconds

(gosh I can't believe it myself).
Okay I guess when you got the mixture proportion rite, the mask is pretty easy to apply, no fuss no mess. And it goes on the face rather smoothly. Except that I was trying the Desensitizing 3D Peel Off Mask and it has small black grains/seeds in it. What is that actually Sharon?
My verdict: After 30 minsutes, I peeled off the mask. My face feel very cooling, soothing and pretty mositurize. The mask came off in a rubbery form as a whole. But on areas that I applied too little, it was dry and powdery so I have to scratch it off using my nails (yikez! not advisable

) instead. Areas that are too painful to scratch I wet it with water and wash it off with my Body Shop Soft Sponge.
But really gotta becareful not to apply it near your hairline and keep your hair away while doing this mask or else you might wanna scream your lungs out while removing them later. I avoided applying around the sensitive eye and lip area. But Sharon, can this powder mask be applied on the eyes and lips? Coz from the pictures, it looks like okay.
Overall, It was a fun experience and believe it or not, I actually felt adrenaline rush while playing with this powder mask LOLZ.

wow girl....hahah....thanks for sharing...that's pretty useful info for many of us here
those grains / seeds are the actual grains used to make the powder mask...so u're actually getting the mask in powder form which use only natural leaves/flowers
the powder can actually be applied overall on face and lips but since we gotta get a gauze for it..
u know those gauze we apply on face first in beauty salons - then only they applied the powder mixture on face
