Facetory is a monthly sheet mask facial subscription. The company aims to provide its members with the latest cult faves from the Korean sheet mask trend. Rather than arriving in a box, the products in this subscription come packaged in the cutest envelope! I love those doodles.
This is a review of the FOUR-ever Fresh subscription level ($5.95 per month + shipping), which includes 4 curated sheet masks made from traditional fabrics like cotton and cellulose. They also offer a Seven Lux subscription level, which includes 7 curated sheet masks with slightly higher-functioning ingredients (think hydrogels and other more sophisticated ingredients).
My Subscription Addiction paid for this box. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes.)

Thanks to this subscription, I've been getting into a good routine of really exfoliating my face in the shower at least once a week and applying these moisturizing masks shortly thereafter. Doing so usually keeps my skin happy and regulated (not too oily, not too dry) throughout the day.
The products in the box are listed out on this card, as are their benefits. Since much of the product details on the sheet mask packages are written in Korean, which I'm not familiar with, I like that they share that information here in English, too.
There's a coupon for the larger subscription (which features seven masks) at the bottom of the card!
Hello Care Anti-Wrinkle Ampoule Mask - Listed Value $3.50
This is a charcoal mask, which means the mask is black rather than the typical white or sheer. I was a little worried that this would be like those masks I've seen in YouTube videos that peel off like a horrible bandage! Thankfully, this was pretty much the same as every other mask in terms of being very moist and relatively loose on my skin. It did hug against my skin a bit more willingly than other masks that I have to smush down against my nose over and over again. And while I'm not sure I experienced the wrinkle-erasing impacts of the hydrolyzed collagen or pomegranate extract, my skin did feel delightfully soft and supple after using this mask!
Lovien Aqua Moisturizing Mask - Listed Value $3.50
This mask is all about moisture, which is usually the primary reason I reach for a sheet mask. Apparently, this sheet is made of cupra rather than cotton, which helps locks in moisture (and according to the info card, helps keep the essence from running down your neck during the experience). Eh, it didn't quite eliminate that part of the process (my mask was still pretty drippy), but I have to say, I am all about the formula of this mask. It was light and watery, rather than oily or sticky like other essences can be. I kept smoothing this mask down over my cheeks, not because the sheet was coming up, but because I wanted to get more of this smooth formula on my hands, too! The floral extracts in this mask left my skin feeling moist, but also really light. None of that icky residue feeling here!
Leaders Mela-Tox Skin Clinic Mask - Listed Value $3.50
I don't know what it is, but every time I try a "whitening" mask, my skin ends up feeling fantastically soothed and makeup primer smooth for the rest of the day. I don't have any interest in whitening (for myself—my skin is pale as all get-out anyway—nor anyone else—embrace your skin tone!), nor do I think "whitening" masks I've received from Facetory actually do any whitening. But I've had such a great experience with them in terms of how they condition my skin. This mask contains natural versions of alpha hydroxy acid, which is used to rejuvenate skin cells. Whatever's in it, it's working for me!
Blooming Cell Calming Project Dual Effect Mask - Listed Value $3.50
This mask has a creamy consistency, which keeps it from being runny. The sheet also seemed thicker than usual, which made the whole experience a little more luxurious than the masks I'm used to. The moisture this mask's natural extracts granted my face didn't last super long (a few hours after I used it, my skin felt back to normal), but I could see nabbing this mask again if I just want to pamper myself for the evening!
Verdict: This Facetory subscription is about $9.00 for me (including shipping), which makes it a pretty good deal. This month, I got about $14.00 of masks and all seemed fairly priced ($3.50 is around what I'd expect to pay for a mask at a store). I haven't experienced anything particularly game-changing, but this subscription definitely gives me a reason to pamper my skin. And my skin definitely appreciates the extra TLC!
