Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Mask EX 40 ingredients
Got a free sample of this mask, didn't really do anything for my dry irritated skin. No extra hydration or glow. I had it on for about 30- 40 minutes as recommended. It ended up causing a flare of my forehead and cheek FA and periorbital dermatitis within an hour.
