All this while, I thought Natto was some kinda fruit. After looking at the pictures on the packaging, I thought it was probably from the orange family.
After putting the mask on, I spent the next 20 minutes Googling 'Natto' and to my surprise.. It's actually fermented soybean and is a traditional Japanese food! @_@
Of course, the mask wasn't sticky like the real natto. It smelt kinda sweet & fruity to me. Not sure if it was just my brain still thinking of 'orange'. If you read the Wiki page, there has been ideas that Natto is beneficial for health. Some believe it can reduce baldness in men (shit.. why not for women too) and helps with Alzheimer's.
As usual, I love the sheet. Stays moist, comfortable, adheres well, good fit etc etc. The mask did moisturize my skin and make it plump but I didn't notice any brightening effect. However, the function was stated as 'moisturizing and suppleness' not brightening.

lol! Its so cute that you thought Natto was a fruit! Its really smelly but mazingly delicious!!
ReplyDeleteI really liked this mask, but I agree, not the best :)
Gosh.. That sounds like 'chau tau fu' (smelly tofu?) which I have not tried nor smelt but apparently is really smelly but certain people find it really tasty.
ReplyDeleteI've tried My beauty diary mask too recently and no wonder you love it so much! The sheet is much, much thinner than the ones that you can get from korean brand! Lol, nattou from citrus family?? XD I wanted to try some and heard the smell is as bad as a pair of rotten socks..XD
ReplyDeleteYEAH! Glad you tried it. I do love the sheet very very much.
ReplyDeleteMy bf got 'chou taufu' (stinky tofu) the other day and I was like woooaahhhh!!!! x_X
i love MBD masks! which among the ones you've tried is your favorite?
ReplyDeleteBlack Pearl (this is my ultimate favourite ^_^), Bulgarian White Rose and 'Earl Grey Tea & Macaron'. All 3 focus on brightening and hydrating. Although some other variants also promise brightening effects, I think these 3 give the best results.
