This series of mask translates the story between every single day of the week and the gods who are behind them.
It is basically a 7-day program with different ingredients and purposes for each day. I usually don't use sheet masks that often, only 2 times per week maximum. Receiving this mask series was surely interesting. So, does it actually work and how does my skin feel after 7 days?
Tuesday: detox with Hephaestus
The weeks begins on a Tuesday with Hephaestus, god of metallurgy, fire and volcanoes. Day 1 mask consists of volcanic ash. Jeju’s volcanic ashes eliminate dead skin cells and clean and contract pores.
Wednesday: moisture with Poseidon
The caviar extracts that Poseidon, god of the sea, gives to your skin has a similar texture with it in terms of amino acids, minerals and vitamins. Moisturizes and increase collagen production.
Thursday: relax with Dryas
Australian indigenes were already using tea tree leaves to cure infectious diseases. Tea tree oil is amazing at calming and soothing the skin.
Friday: regenerating Midas
24k pure gold treats wrinkles and helps blood circulation while delivering minerals.

Sunday: illuminating Helios
Pearl was loved by Cleopatra for its high mineral and amino acid concentration as well as for the bioactive substances it contains. Its reinforces skin’s immunity and acidity for a bright complexion.
Monday: Selene’s total care
Swiftlet’s bird nest contains 2000 times more sialic acid that human saliva and 200 times more than royal jelly for a total turnover: moisture, elasticity, skin tone, it cleans and protects the skin.
I personally am not a fan of this mask base ampoule. The consistency and texture is really thick and gooey and it stays on my skin surface rather sticky. Also, it takes quite long to be absorbed completely onto my skin, more than 15 minutes. Not only that, it gives a warm burning sensation when it is put on. Not so sure why but I was thinking it is supposedly to open up your pores so the essence of the masks can get absorbed and penetrate better into the deep layers of your skin.
I used the mask base ampoule up until Day 4 but after that I stopped using it. I am not liking the texture and I honestly don't see any difference with or without it.
After 7 day of using these mask according to its recommended day, I can see that my skin has become brighter, bouncier and more supple, especially on the drier parts of my skin. They are well moisturized by the end of 1 week. It makes me think that putting on sheet masks everyday is fine too as long as you do not over moisturize your skin. Since this series has different function for each day, it worked great.
It was only that I broke out really badly on Day 2 after the Caviar mask. Not so sure why but my skin was burning hot when I put the mask on, so I had to remove it just after 2 minutes. Then there were so many red bumps all over my skin, mostly on my cheeks and forehead. I was so scared so I just washed it off and compressed my skin with my trustworthy SK-II Facial Treatment Essence.
Good thing is almost all of them are gone after an hour or so, and my skin went back to normal on the next day. especially because the next mask was the Tea Tree mask (Day 3). It calmed and soothed my skin so well.
My favorite mask from this was the Tea Tree (Day 3) and Black Pearl (Day 6) as I can see instant improvement to my skin just right after using them. I love them and would definitely repurchase them if they are sold separately. But overall, this mask series was super fun to try. The concept behind it is really interesting. Definitely should be on your list of must-try products since it is so unique.

Each of the masks in this series comes with a mask base ampoule. It claims to enable the mask essence to be absorbed twice better so you get better result after masking time.
