i don't generally use face masks. i think it's
laziness really as i quite like using them but never seem to find the time! i
bought this the other day though as i've seen a few reviews recently of the
montagne jeunesse face masks and as i had a free sunday and i hadn't planned anything
(apart from watching the last day of the olympics - can't believe they're over... boo!) i put it on in the morning before my shower.
i chose the
deep cleansing pomegranate and passion flower peel off mask as my skin hasn't
looked as clear as i'd like it to recently. it's a bright red gel and there's
plenty in the packet - i'd say enough for two uses if you applied it in a thin
enough layer. it smells lovely and fruity but i have to say it seemed to
irritate my eyes a bit. not enough to make them water and it was probably my
fault for applying it too close to my eyes (so don't let this put you off
trying it for yourself!) but i do think it's always worth mentioning reactions
like that as i know many users would rather avoid them!
anyway, as the packet told me
to i relaxed for about 20 minutes as the face mask dried. it didn't make my
face feel tight whilst it was drying as many face masks do so it didn't feel
too long to wait as originally i thought 20 minutes would be too much. after 20
minutes i went to peel it off - the best bit! as i said before, there is
probably enough of this face mask for two applications as you can only peel off
the thin layers. i ended up putting the excess on my cheeks and had to wipe
this off with cotton pads - not as fun as peeling!
overall i'd say that my face
does feel a lot fresher and cleaner than it did before. i'm not sure how much
of the deep cleansing is visible but i'd be willing to purchase a few more of
these to use weekly to see if it has any long term effects. plus, at 99p it
doesn't cost a lot to feel like you're giving yourself a little treat!
