Hydro Boost is a blue mask which has a consistency somewhere between a cream & a gel. It felt OK on my face, but I was reluctant to apply it down my neck & décolletage to go to bed - too icky! I was surprised that the pod looked half-empty when I opened it, yet the 10mL of product it contained was way too much for a single use. I used half the first time - I slathered it on really thick: it was still too much! I recommend using half of the pod if using it on face, neck & décolletage, or one third for face-only application. I stored the unused portion in the fridge to use again. It worked just as well the next times I used it.
REPURCHASE? Yes, I already have! My skin looked amazing after a single use! My skin is usually well-hydrated (so I'm told whenever I have a facial), yet this mask made my skin plumper & firm-looking, especially my crêpey under-eye area. (I'm 54!)
CONS: When I woke up, the mask had pilled on my face - BADLY! I rubbed it off, standing over the hand basin to catch the residue. My skin still had a silicone-like feel, so I rinsed & scrubbed with a microfibre cloth. This solved the problem for me.
RECOMMEND? Yes, especially for the night before a big event.
Made in Korea.

Tips
There's a tiny peel-out sticker at the base of the tub with ingredients & directions.
"Usage: Apply to your face after cleansing or after a serum, as the last step of your evening skincare routine. Leave the mask on overnight, your skin will absorb the nutrients while you sleep."
I was dismayed when I removed the sticker that there wasn't a ♻ recycling logo.
