Belif Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask Review

If you love waking up to plump, refreshed skin without the weight of a heavy night cream, then Belif’s Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask* might just be your next skincare staple. This cult-favourite Korean-inspired sleeping mask has been earning rave reviews from beauty lovers around the world — and for good reason.

First Impressions & Texture

The mask has a unique jelly-pudding texture — soft, bouncy and cooling on contact. It feels much lighter than traditional sleeping masks, more like a gel-cream that melts into your skin rather than sitting heavily on the surface. This texture makes it especially appealing if you don’t like thick night creams but still want serious overnight hydration.

What It Does

Overnight hydration: This mask excels at locking in moisture and boosting skin’s hydration levels while you sleep. 

Soothing & calming: The formula contains botanical extracts (like Scottish heather and lady’s mantle) that help soothe tired or dull skin. 

Lightweight feel: Despite its hydrating power, it never feels heavy or occlusive, making it suitable for normal, combination, and even oily-leaning skin types

   

How I Like to Use It

🛌 Night time only: I prefer applying this as the final step in my evening routine after all my serums and moisturiser. A little goes a long way — the mask spreads easily and doesn’t pill under light pressure.  🌟 Pro tip: I've found that it's best to let the mask absorb for a few minutes before bed to avoid transfer to your pillowcase. It’s also lovely as a weekend treat or on nights when your skin needs a boost after dryness or dullness.

⭐ Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

Lightweight yet effective hydration — no greasy feel. 

Jelly texture is cooling and pleasant to apply. 

Leaves skin soft, plump, and radiant by morning. 

Works well for multiple skin types. 

⚠️ Cons

Not everyone loves the scent — it has a subtle herbal/beauty product aroma. 

Overall, the Belif Aqua Bomb Sleeping Mask is one of those products that quietly earns a permanent spot in your nighttime routine. It doesn’t promise miracles — but what it does deliver is reliable, fuss-free hydration that leaves skin feeling comfortable, plump and refreshed by morning.

If your skin tends to feel tight, dull or a little overwhelmed (especially after late nights, travel, or seasonal changes), this is the kind of product that feels like an overnight reset. Lightweight, cooling and easy to use, it’s ideal for anyone who wants glowing skin without the heaviness of a traditional night cream.

I’d definitely recommend it to gel-texture lovers or anyone looking to boost hydration with minimal effort — because sometimes, the best skincare is the kind that works while you sleep.

The mask can be purchased from Boots at £29.

Why Sheet Masks are the Perfect Sunday Treat

Sheet masks are the easiest and most effective way to give your skin some love. They are also a very fun way to relax by yourself or with others - who doesn't enjoy a good giggle?! These are just the many benefits of sheet masks, in fact, the list is endless. My current go to sheet mask and the one that is currently on my face, is the Procoal Marine Mositure Mask. Procoal are a British brand that produce high quality beauty products that are kind to the skin.

When! Mask Review

Sometimes you skin needs a bit of a pamper, but working all the time leaves you with little time. That is why masks are a great option as you can apply, do something else and then remove to leave yourself with glowing skin. Sheet masks seem to have taken the world by storm recently due to the convenience, already cut to fit your face and packed full of ingredients to work wonders.

I have been trying out two from When!* who create their masks using bio-cellulose technology. The sheet is very gentle on the skin and hydrating too. All the sheets are superfine and the fibers that makes them up allow it to stick to your face perfectly. Meaning that there is no wastage and the serum is locked in securely to get to your skin.

When® was born to provide SIMPLE, INTELLIGENT SKIN CARE SOLUTIONS for today’s women burdened with multiple roles and responsibilities – every time, everywhere, whenever your skin needs a ‘Mini Spa by Skin-Intelligence’ experience.

Winding Down

This week has been a busy one. I went back to work after a year at university and it was a lot. But I've managed to get through it and next week is a really exciting one! As its Sunday, I thought it was time for me to relax and get ready for another week.
What better way to do that then give my skin some love! Putting on a face mask, relaxing for 20 so minutes and not having a care in the world is my favourite thing to do. Finding face masks for my combination skin is a mammoth task, some work and others don't. But, I think I have finally found my two favourite ones.

The Incredible Face Mask

MayBeauty is a brand I know of and love a great deal, their eyelash serum works wonders, today I am talking to you all about their face mask called 'The Incredible Face Mask' the name makes it sound like the best thing in the world, and I think that it might just be! 

The mask claims to do the following things 'Remove Blackheads, Acne, Dead skin and help with Oil on your face' a lot of claims for a mask that is the size of your hand. Many of the face masks that I have tried before have all been wash off masks but this on the other hand is a peel off one, my first experience with it and it is definitely odd.

You pop this mask on your face, leave it for 30 minutes or what I found is when it peels and doesn't hurt! 

The texture and formula of this mask is a weird one, it is a peel off one but the consistency of it is more like a wash off. It is also very very black, so I would highly recommend doing this when you are having some you time - as it can look pretty scary. I used a brush to apply this as it was a lot easy due to the formula of it being thick but gloopy at the same time. All you need it one even layer and it covers your entire face, I focused more on my forehead and nose where most of my blackheads lie. 

After 30 minutes of waiting very patiently and making funny faces, it was time to peel off. Instantly I saw a difference and this is no lie, my mum even noticed it. My skin had brightened up and instead of looking dark and dull because of all the spots/scars it was the colour of my neck - one colour all over. The next day I had seen a reduction in the spots on my face and no more blackheads on my nose which is where they tend to gather. 

I am in love with this mask, it does everything that it says and more! I will now be doing them every week for as long as I possibly can to help my skin and remove all the bad stuff.
