I’m now officially fangirling every product with Mugwort in it, and I give all the credit to EuniUnni for introducing the I’m From brand and the Mugwort line!

First, I’d like you to know that my skin is very sensitive to sheet masks. I’ve had bad experiences with sheet masks, some because of the ingredients and others because of the sheet itself. So it’s a big deal when my skin loves a sheet mask! You may now proceed with the review.

Where to Buy I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask?

The I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask comes in a 0.77 fl. oz. / 23ml square packet and retails at $4.9 on YesStyle*. The price is worth it for a sheet mask that works and delivers well to the skin.

For all you lucky people in the US who can get Prime delivery, you can buy the sheet mask from I’m From’s official store on Amazon*. It comes in a box of 10 sheets.

You can also shop for I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask on trusted Asian international shops, such as YesStyle and StyleVana. Here’s our editor’s guide to shopping for Korean skincare.

The I’m From Brand

I’m From is a fast-emerging Korean skincare brand with clean, simple, nature-based formulations. The brand’s name, “I’m From,” actually describes its most significant focus: to include only the purest and highest-quality ingredients sourced from the most pristine natural environments across South Korea.

Some of these ingredients include:

  • Ginseng
  • Sea buckthorn (known as the vitamin tree in Korea)
  • Honey and propolis
  • Rice
  • Mugwort, and
  • Volcanic rocks

Some of the natural locations from which these ingredients are obtained include:

  • Jeju Island
  • Jiri Mountain (the highest peak in South Korea)
  • Taebaek Mountain
  • Geum River (where the finest ginseng in South Korea is grown), and
  • Ganghwa Island

Nature as it is. It’s I’m From.

Three promises: Ingredient transparency, honest materials, and no harmful additives.

 I’m From Brand

The packaging I’m From uses for its products perfectly matches its formulations. The primary ingredient is clearly visible on each product’s label. Unlike other skincare products marketed as containing ‘natural’ elements, the ingredient you see on the label is the main ingredient, and no harmful ingredients are added.

Mugwort Benefits for the Skin
A Guide by Emma Wilson for Garden of Muses

According to research, Artemisia Princeps Extract came from Artemisia Princeps, also known as Korean Wormwood, Korean Mugwort, and Japanese Mugwort or Yomogi. It’s a perennial plant (a plant that can live for two years) that grows up to 1.2 meters.

Mugwort is known for its anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory benefits and is packed with antioxidants. Mugwort calms and relaxes irritated and tired skin.

Glycerin

glycerin in skincare
Which are the best humectants in skincare? By Alyssa Tan for Garden of Muses.

Good old trusty glycerin is often overlooked as an inexpensive or inelegant ingredient in skincare, but it is one of the best, most reliable humectants.

Glycerin is also probably the most well-known humectant. It:

  • Hydrates. Glycerin is a very effective humectant, used in many moisturizers to increase skin hydration.
  • Occurs naturally in your skin as part of its home-grown moisturizing system, the natural moisturizing factor (NMF).
  • Strengthens skin barrier. Glycerin also keeps the skin’s lipids flexible, strengthening your skin barrier.
  • Softens. Glycerin softens the skin so other hydrating ingredients can more easily penetrate the skin.
  • Reduces TEWL. Glycerin helps slow down transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Like other humectants, it works by sitting in the top layers of your skin and attracting water from the air and the deeper layers, leaving your skin surface plump and hydrated, even when the weather is arid.

Cordyceps sinensis extract

Cordyceps sinensis extract is another ingredient in this sheet mask. This mushroom has anti-inflammatory, skin-brightening, and anti-aging properties.

I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask does not contain niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, parabens, alcohol, essential oils, fragrance, or allergens and is vegan and cruelty-free.

Arginine

Arginine is an amino acid that helps to strengthen and repair the skin’s barrier. It’s a natural moisturizing factor, a humectant that may help speed up wound healing.

Packaging

The brand I’m From has perfectly matched its packaging with simple yet high-quality and effective product formulations. What you see is what you get. There are no hidden nasty ingredients. No gimmicky marketing.

The sheet mask is housed in a plastic square packet. It feels like paper on the outside but is plastic on the inside. The sheet mask inside is half-perforated white plastic with little holes between the folded sheet.

Scent

It has a milder Mugwort scent than the I’m From Mugwort Mask (wash-off).

Texture

It has a thin and transparent I-CELL sheet, which is 100% plant-based.  The gel-ish essence had a faint brown shade and was enough to add a layer to my face and neck.

My Personal Experience with the I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask

This is my seventh sheet mask from this brand. I first used it in 2019 because EuniUnni raved about It a lot. I used it mostly at night, not for more than 20 minutes, but I also used it during the day for this review and the photo references.

The sheet was fitted perfectly to my face, with only a short excess on the hairlines. The fit and adherence were great! It did not slip, nor did it make me uncomfortable.

The scent was mild, but I don’t mind if the smell did not linger, as I love the mugwort scent! This product felt like the Mugwort Essence that’s just been converted to a sheet mask!

I took it off after 20 minutes, and there was still a lot of essence left, which I used for face massage for not too long as a form of me-time.

The finish was not tacky at all, and it left my skin moisturized and nourished. This one helped me immensely with calming my skin’s redness, especially on the cheek area.

I’ve been through many bad experiences using sheet masks, and I’m telling you this was one of the first sheet masks that did not give my skin any troubles and delivered an extra boost of hydration to my skin!

How to Apply the I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask?

  1. Double cleanse.
  2. Toner.
  3. Open the pouch, separate the mask and the support, and attach the sheet mask to the face.
  4. After 20 minutes, remove the sheet mask and lightly tap the essence remaining on the skin to absorb it.
  5. Follow with the rest of your serums.
  6. Moisturize.
  7. If in the AM, don’t forget sunscreen!

Pros

  • calming

Cons

  • None I can think of

Overall

Your skincare routine can turn into a mugwort regime. The I’m From brand has several products that use mugworts’ benefits for the skin. They have a whole line—essence, cream, mask, and gel! Regarding natural ingredients like Mugwort, I’m From is one of the top skincare brands.

Lastly, I was not paid for this review or received it as a gift.

As always, you do you; be kind to your skin and yourself! Remember that every person’s skin and skin type is different, so what might work for me might not work for you, and vice versa. So, before adding a new product to your skincare routine, it pays to do a little research first.

Before adding the I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask to your skincare regimen, ensure you are not allergic to it or its ingredients. You should also consult your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any medical conditions or medications that may interact with it. Always do a patch test before applying the I’m From Mugwort Sheet Mask to your skin to avoid adverse reactions.

I am not a dermatologist or licensed aesthetician, but I have sufficient experience and knowledge gained by testing multiple products and self-exploration. Unsure? It’s best to consult your dermatologist.
