What the gurus are saying

This retinol mask divides reviewers. One expert found it caused significant irritation and skin sensitivity, cutting short their trial. Another praised it for anti-aging results and a visible glow, and noted it may help those with acne-prone skin, texture, or enlarged pores, though anyone with sensitive skin may want to patch-test first given the mixed response to retinol strength.

"The worst one of all for me, out of the seven days of Hydrogel Masks I did, was the VT Cosmetics RLE with retinol. Oh, my skin was angry after that, which is why I didn't do a full review."

"This is like a guaranteed good skin day. Before a big event, slap one of these on. If you just want to look your best again, apply one of these. I love it. And whilst it doesn't have that viral hit of having it go on milky and it's almost like your skin is absorbing that as you sleep, you don't get that effect. I just think this is more user friendly and certainly is a soft product I would use as opposed to a 12-hour leave-on mask. This is gorgeous."

"I have tried multiple brands' versions of these and there are only three that don't irritate my skin. The main two do irritate my skin, but these VT ones and a few other brands [...] do not irritate my skin whatsoever. [...] I don't always have the time to sit around for 3 hours with one of these on, but I've been using them prior to events if my skin is just in extra need of a bit of hydration and moisture, and I've been enjoying them."
