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

...star removed partly because of the Sulphur smell. INGREDIENTS Purified Water Kaolin Bentonite Glycerin Zinc Oxide Propylene Glycol Sulfur Chromium Oxide Greens Fragrance Phenoxyethanol Methylparaben TIPS ON USING MINT JULEP MASK To use this, I cleanse my face thoroughly then pat it with a towel, but not so that my face is completely dry. I find it easier to apply the mask if my skin is a little damp to start with. I layer it on, let it dry for about 30-40 minutes, before gently rinsing/scrubbing it off. It leaves your skin perfectly primer for a moisturiser or night cream. PRICE The price is great and Julep Mask is good value for money. I will repurchase this at some point, despite the egg smell it omits. It works too well to not repurchase it. AVAILABILITY Some people have said that they cannot find this item...

Review of Queen Helene Mint Julep Face Mask

Superdrug Face Mask

Advantages: Cheap, does its job, refreshing
Disadvantages: Looks cheap

...I'm feeling terrible at the moment - I think I've caught some virus or something, and decided to perk myself up with a face mask. I dug out my trusty self-heating mud mask from the Natural Collection at Boots but I only had a tiny bit left. My mum was going shopping anyway yesterday, so I sent her to Boots to pick up a tube for me, but being my mother, she had decided that self-heating ones weren't good for the skin and bought me one from Superdrug! There are a few different versions, but I got the sensitive version. It comes in a plain white tube with MASK written vertically across it, in big turquoise letters. It does look slightly cheap, but for £1.59, what do you expect? It contains 75ml of the face mask, and it's really just a thick white paste that smells slightly of E45 cream if you sniff the bottle, but when you have it on...

Review of Superdrug Face Mask

A great face mask

Advantages: Easy to apply, leaves face feeling cleansed and refreshed
Disadvantages: None

...BACKGROUND I like to pamper myself every now and then with a face mask, but because my skin is quite sensitive, I have to be careful about which one I choose. PRODUCT The face mask that I have purchased is from Avon's Naturals range and is a Tea Tree peel off mask. The tube contains 75ml and retails for about £3.50. Avon occasionally does special offers with their Naturals range, where you can buy any three items for £5. When these offers happen I stock up on lots of tubes, so I haven't had to buy any of these for a while, but my stocks are becoming very low. PACKAGING The tube itself is clear and has the name of the product on the front and a picture of a tree. The back of the tube has instructions for use and ingredients. I like the idea that this tube is clear, as I can see when it starts to run low, so I can...

Review of Avon Tea Tree Peel-Off Face Mask

Face mask

Advantages: Self Heat
Disadvantages: None

...Firstly this was my situation a few months ago, my skin was dull, lacking life, dry.I desperately needed a change. I decided to treat myself to a face mask, this of which i was extremely attracted to from reviews i have heard previously in a magazine, also the packaging was appealing and attractive to the eye. It has not been tested on animals. I have sensitive skin and therefore it was a prioty that i got something that would not irritate my skin, this of which is perfect as it is suitable for all skin types. Available from a variety of stores including boots, superdrug and lloyds. As it is a heat mask at first coming out of the packet it will feel cold.....but do not panic! Before application throughly cleanse your face, removing any trace of makeup. Place product in hand hot water for one minute, Apply evenly over...

Review of Biore Self-Heating Moisture Mask

Scrummy Mask!

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

...moisturised and very very soft. This feeling lasted until the next day and I didn't feel the need to use a moisturiser in the morning! I use the mask 3 times a week and use it about 8-9 times before it runs out. Oatifix costs £4.95 but I took advantage of Lush's 'bring back 5 pots and get a free face mask' offer and got it for free! This is a very good offer and one I have used many times - money saving and doing my bit for the environment; it's a win - win situation! Overall I love this mask and I will definately be using it again! This review is also posted on dooyoo under username ms123....

Review of Lush Oatifix Fresh Face Mask

Clear skin with Boots tea & Witch Hazel peel off face mask!!!!!

Advantages: cheap! clears spots!
Disadvantages: can't use in the bath as timesaver.

..., and smooth and a lot less greasy than it usually fells, I was quite impressed. You are only meant to use it occassionaly but as my skin was so bad I used it for about four days in a row and it seemed to make my spots go quicker than they usually would, as well as making my skin look healthier and giving it more of a glow! (I however would not recommend you go against the recommended use on the back of the package in case of long term damage to your skin-i.e. more wrinkles!) I was especially happy about this product as it seems to be made for greasy skin so leaves skin dryer, unlike so clay or other masks. Also you don't have the hassle of washing annoying bits of wet mask off of your face as it peels off so easily! It came in incredibly handy when my sister got married as I was chief bridesmaid and had a horrible outbreak a week before...

Review of Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Peel Off Face 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

Tea Tree Oil Face Mask: Terrific!!

Advantages: works wonders!!
Disadvantages: can't think of any!!

...minutes. The mask does not dry, so it feels like the necessary moisture is retained whilst the mask is on and it does not dry out the skin or restrict the movement in the face due to it staying moist. To finish you just rinse the face mask off with warm water. It is advised to use the product once or twice a week. When I put the face mask on my skin, it makes my skin tingle slightly, but in a way that makes me feel refreshed. Because of the tingling sensation it feels like my face really is being properly cleansed of impurities. The face mask looks like a off-colour peppermint green type putty, and it smells the same as most tea tree oil products do! The texture is quite thick but it is not gloopy, running or difficult to put on to the face. In fact, compared to a few face masks that I have tried I would say that it is one...

Review of The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Face Mask

Body Shop Vitamin E Sink-In Moisture Mask

Advantages: Moisturises. Smells nice.
Disadvantages: Tingles. Sticky.

...I received a 20ml sample of this in a set as a gift and have saved it until my usual mask ran out. I thought it was about time I gave it a try and here's what I thought of it. The mask reminds me of a very thick night cream that doesn't absorb very easily. It's light pink in colour and smells slightly of roses. Putting it on is straight forward enough - I just smeared it on like any other face mask. There are no special precautions such as avoiding eyes written on my sample pot but I decided it was probably best to avoid the area directly under my eyes. When I first applied the mask it all got absorbed very quickly so I decided I'd better apply some more. When the mask was on it made my skin feel very strange indeed. Almost as if it was chilling my skin and there was a slightly unpleasant tingling sensation which had me worried...

Review of The Body Shop Vitamin E Sink In Moisture Mask

dead Sea Magik Face Mask

Advantages: brightens, moisturises, tones, cleans, good for travel, remedy for late nights
Disadvantages: none

...I love this mask. I use it a lot. At first you have to apply it right otherwise it doesn't peel off easily. You just mix with water and make the mixture into a smooth paste and then apply onto your face. I leave it for 10-15 minutes and then just peel off. I use quite a thick layer so the mask peels off easily and then just wip my face with a towel and fresh water. The mask refreshes my skin and tones as well. I really feel the minerals in the mask working and I always think my skin looks brighter when I use this mask. It cleans and moisturises and I use it about once a week. I find my skin looks smoother and the area around my eyes brighter so it's good for late nights and tired skin from everyday life. I think the mask conditions skin well and gives it a kind of vitamin and mineral natural injection. You can buy in packs...
