6300 rubles for a set of four masks
We have already told you about the elegant Scandinavian brand Verso and its premium status (from which the same premium prices flow): the main feature of the products is the progressive component retinol 8, which is also in these hydrogel masks. We admit honestly that you did not try and is unlikely to succeed, but if you have the opportunity, it’s definitely worth the risk. Judging by the reviews, the competition of the brand’s products will be made only by living water, and this mask is attributed specifically to the ability to soothe the reactive skin to the state of the final Zen.

Another representative of the category of serious funds, this time of Swiss origin: peptides and the intricately patented complex of substances promise help to mature skin.

Petitfee Gold Hydrogel Mask Pack
290 rubles
Colloidal gold, as can be seen from the compositions of Korean cosmetics, is an ingredient that is as popular as snail extract. He is credited with the ability to fight everything, from acne and inflammation to pigmentation, but here, rather, half of the truth: he really has antibacterial properties and, as a preventive measure, home-use products with this gold are quite good. In general, the difference between the "precious" masks from different price categories is not enough, and if you want to try, you can choose this one - it has quite decent moisturizing properties. It is better for vegans not to touch: as part of an extract of the swallow's nest, also known for a long time in Asian cosmetology and cooking.
