Everyone on your list will appreciate this totally insane face mask. Trust.
Yes, I’m talking about Hanacure’s All-In-One Facial, the viral skin-tightening mask that makes you look bloody terrifying for 20 minutes, then leaves you with instantly lifted, smooth, plump, and evenly toned skin… according to 19,000+ reviewers (and Drew Barrymore, who called it a “professional level treatment at home”).
In the 6 years that Hanacure has been around, this mask has not only won 11 awards and been spotted on celebrities like Kim & Kourtney Kardashian and January Jones, but it’s also racked up praise from Vogue, Elle, Cosmopolitan and Vanity Fair.
So the hype is (and always has been) there, but the whole creepy selfie thing seemed like a gimmick to me, especially at $29 per mask. Luckily, my mom gifted me the The All-In-One Facial Set ($110 for 4 masks) for my birthday last week, and I got to satisfy my curiosity.
After seeing the impact just a single mask had on the tone, texture, and appearance of my skin, I’m getting one for everyone I know. This sh*t is legit—and in my eyes, $29 is an excellent price to pay for a gift that delivers the same results as a pricey derm treatment (and from the comfort of home, too). They also have a $68 Discovery Kit, which includes a mini version of their moisturizer and face wash.
Here’s what you should know about Hanacure
If you’re a sensitive skin girly like me, you’ll know that formulas with minimal ingredients are the name of the sensitive skincare game. Hanacure delivers just that. According to their website, their dermatologist-approved formulas are produced in-house with “the highest concentrations of clinically-proven ingredients” like Copper Tripeptide-1, Beta Glucan, and Lotus Leaf “that ensure a minimal and uncomplicated approach to skincare.”
Everything they make (Hanacure also has a cleanser and moisturizer) is vegan and gluten-free, is never tested on animals, and of course, contains no parabens, sulfates, phthalates, or artificial fragrances & colorants. Even better, in a clinical trial that included all ethnicities and skin types, 97% of respondents said their skin was tighter, firmer, and more lifted after using the mask.
Now we can get into the fun stuff: my experience
My mom sent me the order confirmation on a Tuesday, and by Friday evening I was preparing myself for a self care night. Free & fast shipping? Check. But it’s what’s inside that counts, and Hanacure did not disappoint there, either. I felt like I was a luxury skincare TikToker unboxing this baby—from the glass Octolift® Ampoules and Octolift® Solution to the included applicator brush—this stuff feels bougie. It’s not hard to use, though.
All I had to do was cleanse and dry my face, mix one of the glass vials into one of the solution packs, shake it for 20 seconds to activate it, and then use the brush to paint the gel all over my face, neck, and the back of my hands…then wait for 20 minutes.
10 minutes in, I understood why January Jones called it “for real intense.”
This mask is not for the faint of heart. As soon as it started to dry, my face felt like I’d painted glue onto it, and it looked like it, too.
Like I said, the process was easy. The hard part was not laughing at myself in the mirror, so as not to disturb the drying process. And because smiling with this thing on hurt like a b*tch.
20 minutes (and 200 selfies) later
Given how tight my face felt with the mask on, I thought it would be impossible to wash off, like a clay mask. Au contraire. It rinsed off easily with some warm water. I followed up with my favorite moisturizer, and stepped back to scrutinize the results.
Immediately, I noticed the difference in my forehead. I’ve never gotten Botox, but my forehead felt so tight that I can only imagine that’s what Botox feels like. Next, my pores (which have become more noticeable with age) looked significantly smoother and more refined, and the skin on my cheeks felt simultaneously softer, tighter, and more plump.
I don’t think I’ve ever understood what “resurfacing” looked like until I tried this mask, and that’s all thanks to the high concentration of peptides and botanicals that work to clarify, calm, and soothe the skin after Hanacure’s proprietary Octolift® technology does its tightening and lifting magic.
Apparently, it just keeps getting better
The instant results I saw from using one Hanacure mask were shocking enough for me to order it for everyone I love. But I’m excited to see the longer-term impacts with continued use (they recommend using it once a week for the first month, and then as-needed after that, for the best results).
I’ve been struggling with hyperpigmentation from acne scarring lately, which was one of the most common skin concerns I saw in reviews (besides fine lines and wrinkles). So, I’m excited to see how much this mask can help with that over the next few weeks.
Holiday gifting has never been so simple, thanks to Hanacure
Now that I’ve tested it, I can say that the All-In-One Facial is the most effective skincare product I’ve tried. It’s a 20 minute at-home treatment that does the work of a 20-step skincare routine, and I could not be more here for it.
I’ve already ordered the All-In-One Facial Set ($110) for my bestie, sister, and boyfriend, and stocked up on quite a few All-In-One Facial Starter Sets ($29) for everyone else on my list. If they’re still available by the time you’re reading this, you should snag a few while they’re still in stock.
With Hanacure’s All-In-One Facial, you can give the gift of tighter, firmer, and more lifted skin, all with the convenience of an at-home treatment — and for less than $30. Just make sure to order by December 11th for delivery by Christmas!
