Nourish your skin and lock in moisture for just 100 yen!

Let’s face it, there are plenty of things out there that make you wish you knew sooner; storing exercise balls in the corner of ceilings, fixing wet pages of a book, and learning not to mess with Mr. Sato. If you’ve not heard of the marvellous Silicone Moisturizing Mask available from Japan’s 100-yen shop franchise, Daiso, then we suggest that you spare two minutes to read this article. We promise you’ll walk away more enlightened than ever before.

As its name implies, this 100-yen (US$0.90) product is essentially an elastic silicone mask with two ear loops. What distinguishes it from others of its kind is that the mask offers a snug fit thanks to those ear loops, ensuring that your skin is in maximum contact with your favorite sheet mask. That’s right, more nutrition-packed serum will be absorbed into your skin instead of evaporating away!

▼ Here’s what the Silicone Moisturizing Mask looks like.

Our trusty Japanese-language reporter, Go Hattori, will now take you through what he did with his mask! First, he kept his face straight and stretched a sheet mask over it.

Next, Go fitted on the Silicone Moisturizing Mask and secured it using those ear loops, while carefully performing tiny adjustments around the jaw.

▼ Just like a jigsaw puzzle, everything was in place!

What a comfortable fit! Perhaps his own sweat contributed to the moisturizing process, but it felt as if the Silicone Moisturizing Mask prevented the hydrating essences from the sheet mask from evaporating. It successfully extended the contact time between his skin and those fortifying essences, maximizing absorption and giving it a much-needed intense rejuvenation.

The fit was so comfortable and snug that Go felt as if the mask was one with his skin, and the mask didn’t budge at all when our reporter looked downwards, allowing him to carry out his chores and desk work smoothly. Conventional masks can be peeled off after they have dried up, but since the sheet mask was nowhere near drying out in Go’s case, he began to wonder when he could finally take it off, so it might be wise to consult the sheet mask instructions in that case. For a product costing a mere 100 yen, our reporter (with skin revitalized) never would have thought he’d get so much value out of it!

As an added bonus, the Silicone Moisturizing Mask is reusable, so all you have to do is give it a gentle wash, dry it, and it’s ready for your next hydrating session! Head to Daiso now and give it a try; this low-cost mask will turn out to be a valuable addition to your repertoire of beauty products.

Something has gone terribly wrong in the Hundred Acre Wood….

We all have stressful days where we just want to put on a facial mask, kick back, and watch some TV while pampering our skin. If you’re like some Japanese people, you’ll want your facial mask for that special “me time” to have a cute character on it, because nothing says luxurious skin care like anthropomorphic animals!

Which is exactly what Japanese Twitter user @beeeeeerrrrrry was thinking when she brought home a Winnie the Pooh face pack. Just slap it on, relax, and enjoy some Pooh bear-approved, honey-smooth skin, right?

But once she put it on, things suddenly took a turn for the scarier. And we’re talking Heffalump and Woozle-level scary here.

▼ Hmm, so far so cute. It can’t be that different when she puts it on–

▼ CHRISTOPHER ROBIN WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO POOH BEAR?!
Oh no… it’s talking!

▼ “MUTANT POOH EATS HONEY AND HUMAN FACES!”

Yikes! What happened to our lovable, honey-loving friend? This mask is clearly some sort of demonic distortion of what was once Winnie the Pooh. The poor bear must have accidentally slipped and fallen into Hell, and boy did it take a toll on his complexion.

Japanese Twitter users had similar reactions to seeing Pooh’s dark side:

“It looks like a B-movie horror monster!”
“Well I guess I know what I’ll be seeing in my nightmares tonight…”
“AH! Don’t look it in the eye!”
“Why did I make the mistake of reading this while I was drinking tea? Now my monitor is soaked!”

And for those out there who think that this is just something that happens to face masks in general, we present evidence to the contrary: check out the kabuki, Attack on Titan, or KISS face packs we’ve looked at before.

None of them end up nearly as scary as the warped Pooh, meaning you may want to steer clear of these possessed masks the next time you’re shopping for exfoliation supplies.
