If there is one product on my shelf that I can count on to step in and do the heavy lifting when I have messed up, it is absolutely this one. I have had several instances of messing up my skin barrier, which would result in breakouts, redness and/or irritation, but using the Laneige Cica Sleeping Mask overnight results in noticeable lessening of the issues.

It has a noticeable piney scent, and while I quite enjoy it, other people might find it to be too much. In my experience it does lessen quite a bit post application. I usually apply a generous amount an hour or so before sleep, so that it has enough time to sink into the skin properly. It will leave a slight film/residue-like situation that will need to be washed off in the morning, but as I usually wash with a cleanser anyway, I don't find it bothersome.

I tend to use it anywhere from once/twice a week at most to a couple of times a month when I need something reliable that can work overtime to fix what I broke.
