Being a beauty blogger, I am always in search of new products to try out. For me, skincare has always been way more essential than makeup. I might now pick up the hottest lipstick or highlighter, but I’m always eager to explore new skincare launches. So, when I saw Nykaa came up with its own Korean sheet masks- Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask with some desi ingredients, I cannot hold my excitement. There was a two-for-two offer going on pre-ordering the sheets, so I got four of them. I am going to review the Gooseberry + Papaya for Nourished + Brightened Skin sheet mask today.
Being a beauty blogger, I am always looking for new skincare and makeup products to try and review on my blog for my readers. Recently, it has been 80% skincare and 20% makeup which I am really enjoying because as they say, the more flawless the canvas the prettier the painting (Ahem, I just invented it). Anyway, recently I saw some very interesting stuff launched by Nykaa. They launched their very own Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Masks. The sheet masks weren’t the interesting part but their desi ingredients were. I love how they have merged India and Korea in such a fancy way. All the ingredients used in these sheet masks are 100% originated from India and made to target specific skin concerns. Today, I am reviewing two of their 11 variants- Gooseberry+Papaya and Pear+Hyaluronic Acid
Price– ₹ 100 (Buy here)
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask range is powered with two hero ingredients in each mask. They have launched a collection of total 11 sheet masks focusing on Indian skin and their problems.

Passed on from generations to generations, they have never ceased to mark their vitality even in the modern world. Now, we have brought to you the most-precious beauty secrets in the form of our Nykaa Skin Secrets sheet masks.”
Why Nykaa Skin Secrets sheet mask?
- Dual ingredients for dual benefits.
- Exquisite Indian origin ingredients for maximum benefits.
- Each variant caters directly to all targeted skin concerns.
- Benefit-driven to ease the consumer purchase.
How to Use-
Unfold and lay over on clean and toned skin. Relax for 10-15 minutes. Remove the mask and gently pat the excess serum onto your skin, until fully absorbed. Massage for good blood circulation that results in a healthy glow.
My Experience with Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Range-
Now, let me tell you what I honestly feel about this particular range of sheet masks.
Packaging- The packaging is very nicely and meticulously done. An image of the key ingredients of the corresponding masks is printed on the packaging itself. Also, the name of the ingredients and the effects of the mask is also written boldly on the pack. So, the user is completely aware of what they are putting on their face and there is no room for confusions.
Fitting- The fitting of these sheets masks is what makes it my favourite. The holes are made keeping Indian face shapes in mind. A difficulty that I face with most of the Korean sheet masks is that the holes for the eyes are not wide enough to fit me. But Nykaa’s sheet masks have bigger eye holes so that they fit people with bigger eyes.
Consistency of the Serum/Essence- I have never used a sheet mask before that doesn’t come with a thick, hard-to-absorb serum/essence. My experience with Nykaa Sheet Masks was outstanding because the Nykaa face sheet masks are soaked in a serum that is very lightweight and absorbs quickly into the skin. The essence does not make my skin oily, it just adds the right amount of moisture.
The 11 variants of the Nykaa Face Sheet Masks are-
- Gooseberry + Papaya (for Nourished + Brightened skin)
- Almond + Yogurt (for Revitalized + Nourished skin)
- Tea Tree + Aloe Vera (for Clear + Moisturized skin)
- Black Mud + Aloe Vera (for Purified + Hydrated skin)
- Rice + Camelia (for Nourished + Radiant skin)
- Rose + Goat Milk (for Nourished + Radiant skin)
- Lemon + Honey (for Lightened + Glowing skin)
- Avocado + Moringa (for Nourished + Hydrated skin)
- Pearl + Hyaluronic Acid (for Firm + Brightened skin)
- Charcoal + Bamboo (for Purified + Nourished skin)
- Turmeric + Coconut (for Revitalized + Radiant skin)
I bought 4 from the list- #1, #7, #9 and #11. I will review #1 Gooseberry + Papaya Face Sheet Mask and #9 Pearl + Hyaluronic Acid Sheet Mask today.
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Review- Gooseberry+Papaya
Unmask for a Nourished and Brightened Skin.
Benefits of Gooseberry- Gooseberry, popularly known as Amla in India, removes tan and lightens blemishes and acne scars.
Benefits of Papaya- Provides three-layer deep skin nourishment and a long-lasting glow.
Ingredients-
Water, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Alcohol, Betaine, Butylene Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract (1,000 ppm), Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Glyceryl Caprylate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract (100 ppm), Sodium Hyaluronate, Disodium EDTA, Fragrance.
Efficacy-
From my childhood, I have been told numerous benefits of natural ingredients by my mother. She is all about DIYs. I remember she used to make a papaya mask for face and an amla concoction for the hair. I have seen papaya doing wonders for my face. It adds a healthy, natural glow to your face instantly.
I think this particular mask is very average when it comes to the results. I have not seen any visible or drastic change in my skin except for it made it really nourished and clean in a way. I have not seen any of my spots getting faded or skin clarity. Maybe with regular use, it can work on that front.
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Review- Pearl+Hyaluronic Acid-
Unmask for a Firm and Brightened skin.
Benefits of Pearl- Reduces melanin production to give fairer radiant skin.
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid- Holds in hydration to increase the elasticity giving a firmer and younger-looking skin.
Ingredients-
Water, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Alcohol, Betaine, Butylene Glycol, Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, 1,2-Hexanediol, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Glyceryl Caprylate, Sodium Hyaluronate (25ppm), Ethylhexyglycerin, Xanthan Gum, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Pearl Extract (50 ppm), Disodium EDTA, Fragrance.
Efficacy-
Nykaa Skin Secrets Face Sheet Mask Pearl+Hyaluronic Acid does what it claims. I could feel my skin a bit firmer after the use. It might not make you fairer (because you know that’s not possible!) but definitely would brighten up your face a lot. The serum penetrates into the skin very quickly giving it the proper amount of hydration. This mask is a great option to get an instant pick-me-up before any party or occasion.
Overall, I loved both the masks for the instant glow that they provide. These masks are nothing extraordinary so don’t expect them to completely change your skincare game. These are only for ₹100 thus you can definitely give these a shot. There is a ‘buy 5 get 3 free‘ offer going on on these right now. So, it could be a great opportunity to stock them up or give them a try.
