“Hey, it’s face mask Friday!”
Imagine the look on my younger brother’s face (last night) when I told him to wash up and slap on a face mask. Hard? Well, he’s not one for doing much for his face–he’s all about the hair, so when I told him the aforementioned he sighed and went back to his computer games.
That sigh did not stop me from putting on a mask. The mask that I’m talking about today is a mask that I’ve had in my possession for about four months now. I thought I was going to write a review on it after having it for a month, but I became lazy with putting on my masks since school got in the way of me sticking to a consistent skin routine. And so, four months later, I’m finally writing this review that I have put off for quite some time mainly because I had mixed feelings about this mask–and laziness.
I had mixed feelings with this mask because when I first smothered my face in it, there was an immediate burning sensation. It was to the point that my eyes were watering (see below).
Yes, I’m pouting… It stung quite a bit. |
I would have to roll a paper towel around my index finger and gently wipe the area under my so as not to accidentally wipe off the mask. Even though I adjusted how much I applied (as you can see here, I put on a rather thin layer of the mask), it still stung. It wasn’t enjoyable. However, as time went on, I could feel the mask drying out and tightening my skin. I didn’t notice anything different about my face except for the firmness that normally results after using a mud mask.
So many oils… |
