Laneige strikes gold with this little pot of hydrating magic. Laneige Water Sleeping Mask delivers a moisture infusion into your skin when you need it most.
Another winner, like the Laneige Cream Skin Refiner from Amorepacific. This is a great example of why Korean skincare comes out on top time and time again. They know skin and they know that one of the best ways to preserve your skin is by hydration, hydration and more hydration. And always, in the most gentle way, so you can layer your skincare in a safe, uncompromising way.
What does the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask do?
Laneige Water Sleeping Mask is a brilliant product that delivers a moisture surge to your skin. When your skin is looking dull and dehydrated, this performs superiorly by delivering much needed hydration into the skin.
Interestingly, the results are backed by a clinical study too!
- Pillow marks caused during sleep were reduced and quickly faded.
- Dead skin cells decreased over a 4 week period, resulting in a smoother and supple complexion.
- The moisture content in the skin increased, as well as skin clarity and the skin glow.
- The skin’s barrier was strengthened over the same 4 week period.
What does the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask feel like?
The Laneige Water Sleeping Mask has a gel like consistency. It is not sticky at all, and glides very smoothly over your skin. It instantly feels very cooling and soothing on the skin. It feels as though it penetrates deep into the skin, and your skin can drink this up, thereby feeling supple and nourished.
The gel is light blue in colour and has an ever slight fragrance to it, which it close to a ‘clean’ smell. It is housed in lightweight but sturdy blue plastic packaging with a fresh seal.

When should you use the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask?
Even though this is called a mask, it doesn’t act like a traditional wash off mask. I love this moisturing mask and finished this tub within a couple of weeks, easily. You can use it on it’s own for intensive hydration through the night, or layer it with your retinoids or any other targetted serums you may like to use. It’s gentle and doesn’t conflict with many products. I did however find that it stung my eyes, so I quickly learned to use an eye cream to hydrate the eye area and use the mask everywhere else. I really love the AHC Eye Cream
I also really loved my skin in the morning, it felt soft, supple and well hydrated. It says to wash the mask off in the morning, but I found a regular gently cleanse with water also sufficient.
Who is it suitable for?
All Skin Types
