C&F Cosmetics Coenzyme Q10 Face Mask Review

I finally had some time to try on my new face masks the other day that the lovely Sonia had sent me (Click here for post). So here is my review.  Out of the two, I tried the Coenzyme Q10 Face Mask.  It was my first time trying these types of mask.  The only other time was when one of my best friends had me try those green masks back in our college dorming days.  I thought it would be something like that...a liquid that I would have to spread around on my face.  Nope, this is an actual mask.


Doesn't the model look pretty with the mask on?  For me, it was a different story!  (You are being warned.)

The directions says to first wash your face then evenly spread the mask on your skin.  Once it is on, your face will begin absorbing the highly concentrated nutrition.  Leave this mask on for about 20-30 minutes.



GAH!  Don't be afraid, it is just me.  No matter how many pictures I took trying to look "cute", it was not working out.  So this is what you get.  (The things I do for all of you! <3)

As you can see, it did not fit my face as well as the model's.  I guess I just have a long/big forehead and nose.  But that is okay as long as the mask got majority of my face.  Hopefully I put the mask on correctly..  It had a nice scent to it, but I think if I had to keep it on longer than 30 minutes I would have gotten a headache.  (FYI, It is just something personal.  If any scent linger around my nose for a certain period of time, I begin to get headaches.)

Being the first time trying out this type of mask, I was not sure what to expect.  I kept thinking it would be like those Biore nose strips where the sheet would harden so I would know when to take it off.  Nope, it stayed moist and cool for the entire time.  


After the 30 minutes was up, my face was slightly wet with all of the nutritions it left behind.  It was a bit sticky, but my face felt cool.  I loved the results.  My skin appeared brighter with a nice glow, soft and smooth!  I cannot wait to try my other mask.  

What is your favorite face mask to use?

Thanks for reading,

I used to do face masks and I never had a decent photo wearing one. Haha! I would always look like some mummy.

What I like about wearing masks is that it refreshes your skin.

I love these kinds of masks! My aunt always stocks up for herself and gives me plenty of these (: I can't tell if they actually do anything for my skin, but they're really relaxing (after you get past the cold slapping it on part bwahaha)

D.Sadie said...

I can see the difference in your skin complexion too! I love facial masks, they're really refreshing :)

Ahw! love your new lay-ouy (:
I rarely use these type of masks while they are pretty good and easy to use. My favorite masks are by Montagne de Jeunesse (don't know the one exactly tho) and me newest addition: Himalaya Neem facepack. That one's awesome! But sheet masks are a lot cleaner to use :P

D.Sadie said...

I love scary mask pics! Haha.
Masks are fabulous! Great for a nice relaxing day in.

D.Sadie said...

D.Sadie said...

This looks really cool! I love face masks, although I've never tried the paper kind.

D.Sadie said...

Haha, yeah, i took like 10 pictures and none looked good. but yes, I love the effect this had on my skin. <3

D.Sadie said...

D.Sadie said...

D.Sadie said...

Haha, yes they are!

D.Sadie said...

D.Sadie said...

Naw, she uses ones by a brand called Dainty Design. I have the collagen/rose/lavender ones, but I can't tell the difference between any of them haha. I wish the rose/lavender ones at least smelled floral-y!

D.Sadie said...

Yay Dinah you used them! I can so see a difference! You're just glowing.:) I'm so glad you liked the results! LOL I always look cray with it on, you made it look FIERCE. Man, I want In N Out so badly atm. Random though. Carry on.

D.Sadie said...

Sure will!

D.Sadie said...

Nice :) I like face products with cooling effect. Hihi

D.Sadie said...

I love face masks! I usually do a mask about once a week, but the traditional kind that you have to spread on. I've never tried a sheet mask before but I really want to.

D.Sadie said...

You look gorgeous in that mask ;P but I haven't tried any of these masks ;[ it does look refreshing tho!

D.Sadie said...

Yes! I loved it. Thanks again hun! ROFL, I don't look fierce, more like scary. ahaha. o0o! In N Out sounds good right about now..

D.Sadie said...

D.Sadie said...

D.Sadie said...

Hi Dinah, guess who? :) You are very brave. I don't think I could post a picture of myself wearing a mask again. LOL! I remember that memory, we used the Proactive Refining Mask: Combination Therapy. Btw, where can I get that mask back home and does it help with fading blemish scars?

My skin is combination to oily and as I have gotten older I have some dryness issues also. I have been using Made from Earth's Vitamin Enhanced Face Firming Serum for about 4 weeks. I love how it keeps my skin hydrated all day! And it has a high concentration of Q10...

My skin also looks better than ever. I was using the La Mer (very expensive) which was doing a very good job for me, but I wanted something that worked very well without costing a small fortune. This is it. I am thrilled with the results.
