The Mask review

Advantages: Very very funny
Disadvantages: None

...The Mask is a comedy made in 1994 and was part of the trifecta (the others being "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" and "Dumb & Dumber") that propelled Jim Carrey from unknown to superstar. It also made a star of another unknown actor, this time being Cameron Diaz. Jim Carrey plays Stanley Ipkiss, a bank clerk and a really nice guy. But, he is a bit of a pushover and never really stand up for himself. After a particularly bad day, he stumbles upon a mask, that he finds out depicts Loki, the Norse god of mischief. When he puts on the mask, he turns into a green faced, wacky, snappy dresser! He's confident, romantic and not afraid to fight for what he believes in, so you could say he just brought out what Stanley is really like inside himself. So, together with his dog, Milo, they go out and paint Edge City red! Well, green really. This...

Mudd Mask

Advantages: Leave skin so smooth, easy to use
Disadvantages: Takes ages to remove

...Occasionally I like to have a pampering night where I sit in front of the TV, do a face mask, paint my toenails and generally do girlie things. One of my favourite face masks to use is the Mudd range of face masks. Range The Mudd range is quite varied and includes masks which exfoliate, a medicated mask, masks for men and the original mud mask - which is my favourite. Packaging The original face mask comes in 5 inch x 3 inch sachet which is white and brown. Each sachet contains 15ml of the face mask. On the front of the sachet there is a small picture of a woman with the mask applied to her face and I have to admit that it literally looks like she has covered her face in mud! Next to that picture is a slightly larger picture of the same woman with very healthy looking glowing skin. On the back of the packaging, there is all...

Review of Mudd Original Mask

The Mask

Advantages: Easy to use, lasts a long time, cleanses and purifies your skin.
Disadvantages: Looking very ugly with it on & slightly dries out my skin.

...out at the top of the 't'. The main body of the tub is a peppermint colour which matches the colour of the cream. It has directions for use on the side. ~ Main ingredients ~ Glycerin ~ an effective moisturiser that helps improve softness and maximise hydration. Kaolin clay ~ This is said to control shine. It deeply cleanses, drawing out any impurities from the skin. It also helps restore the skin's natural balance. Tea tree oil ~ this has natural, purifying anti-bacterial properties which helps soothe blemised skin. ~ What does the B.Shop say about this mask?~ This is a clay based mask which deep cleanses to encourage clearer skin. It's a deep cleansing mask that helps refine the skin and combat blemishes, while absorbing excess oils, leaving the skin feeling clean, refreshed and revived. ~ So does it do all of this...

Review of The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Face Mask

Scrummy Mask!

Advantages: Super-soft skin, smells yummy
Disadvantages: None

...I visited my local Lush branch last week in search of a fresh face mask to sort out my tired looking skin. I do use their products fairly regularly, but it had been some weeks since I'd used a fresh mask and my face felt like it could do with a treat. I went towards the end of the day and was pleasantly surprised that they still had a full range of fresh masks, although this did make my job of deciding which one to take home a little more difficult! The lady working there suggested trying their most recent conconction -oatifix. She said it was deeply moisturising and particularly suited to dry and sensitive skin. For those of you who haven't tried Lush's range of Fresh Face masks - these are made with fresh ingredients (which can often be found in your kitchen) and contain no preservatives. For this reason they need to be kept in...

Review of Lush Oatifix Fresh Face Mask

Behind the mask is an exceptional film

Advantages: Amazing story and brilliant performances
Disadvantages: The softness of the picutre due to the way it was shot

..., I have revisited this film numerous times as it is one of the most compelling dramas I have ever had the pleasure to watch. What is also quite amazing about this film is that it was released in the middle of the 80s when the cinema going audiences seemed to want innocent entertainment like "Back to the Future" instead of powerful true life dramas such as this. For me when I read that a film is based on a true story I approach it with a certain amount of caution, but whilst I cannot say how accurate this interpretation is, I can say that it is vastly different to the majority of films which base their plots on a real life story. Whilst the usual route of action for true story films is to pile on the sentiment with highly contrived scenes which focus on pushing the audiences' buttons to gain a desired emotion. "Mask" steers well clear...

Review of Mask (DVD)

wella mask

Advantages: great
Disadvantages: very expensive

...My friend used to work for Wella SP and I was lucky to be blessed with some of her samples and although this is a very expensive range it is fantastic, I do not think that I would buy it as the price is a very big off put, but the products are first class and in a class of their own. Wella SP Hydro Mask is a treatment thats helps condition your hair and that gives maximum moisture to your dry hair making it soft to touch and keeping your hair well conditioned. For the best results massage into your clean damp hair, it suggests you leave it in for 5 minutes, but I have found the longer you leave it the better. To intensify the effect of the Hydro Mask add heat to the hair, Then after a while rinse the mask out thoroughly. I try and use it once every couple of weeks as I find it time consuming as I leave it on for up to an hour...

Review of Wella SP 3.1 Hydro Mask

The Queen of face masks!

Advantages: Low price + large tube + gorgeous mint scent + really works!
Disadvantages: Sulfur smell - flip-top would be better - possibly update the design

...I love mint...mmm it's got such a gorgeous smell! I also love how they use the word "masque" rather than "mask"; there's nothing fancy about this item, though ;) PACKAGING This mask comes in both tube form and tub form. I, personally, prefer the tube and am not such a fan of the tub. I think it's just because the tubes are easier to carry around, for example, if staying overnight somewhere, and so on. The tub is more economical, though, it has to be said. The tube is made from 'soft' plastic - the plastic that you can squeeze easily, exactly like the E45 tubes of cream. To me, the design is retro - it doesn't look modern, rather it looks like a classic oldie. It sports white and green gradient background with a deep green plastic lid. The lid is of the screw-top type. My only gripe is that it could have a flip-top lid...

Review of Queen Helene Mint Julep Face Mask

Lush Mask of Magnaminty

Advantages: great product
Disadvantages: none

...Lush Mask of Magnaminty Lush have done it again with another stunning product that works wonderfully at is surprisingly at a very reasonable price for what you are getting. This review is for Lush Mask of Magniminty, which is a face, neck and back pack fragranced with mint. Since my cravings for all things minty I thought this was a fantastic purchase and have enjoyed using it right till the end. It comes from the Lush store and the125 gram pot costs £2.95p but there is a larger option available for about double the price and you don?t really save much money buying larger. The pot the product comes in is a very sleek looking mat black tub that opens with a screw lid. There are simple labels on the lid and side of the pot giving you information on the ingredients and how you use the product and so on. The smell from...

Review of Olay Stretching Cloth Mask

THE MASK OF SORROW!!

Advantages: You get to lie down for 15 minutes
Disadvantages: You might as well have stayed up

...I received a free sample of this product some time ago and it was a toss-up whether I put it on ebay or tried it myself. I confess I wasn?t that keen because many, many, many years ago when I was a mere 17-years-old I remember buying a bottle of Oil of Ulay (as Olay used to be known) and because I had a perfect skin ? though a tendency to tightness if I used soap and water ? I was unprepared for the awful patches of scaly dried skin which I developed after 2 days of using Oil of Ulay. I gave the lotion to my sister and carried on, ever after, using moisturisers which were creamy rather than fluid in consistency. ***Olay Total Effects 7X Mask ? did it cut the mustard?*** The face mask is a face-shaped lotion-soaked stretchy material with holes for eyes, nose and mouth. Sort of Phantom of the Opera does QVC. The lotion contains...
