What did you think? The first and most important thing to know about this mask is that you have to put a THICK layer on for it to work properly. You also have to be careful NOT to get it in your hair or anywhere near your eyes. When I've used this, it initially makes my eyes burn. I think it's the witch hazel. Anyway, this burning is not strong and doesn't last long. It makes my skin tingle and feel clean. It doesn't feel unpleasant as it dries--some masks flake, feel hot, or tighten up as they set. This one doesn't. You just leave it on 20 minutes or so and then peel when it's ready.
Peeling off a mask is so much fun! I love the way that feels, and though it can be tricky to get this mask going, peeling it off is satisfying. As I said, it leaves my skin feeling smooth, evened out, and cleansed. I do find this mask to be messy, and I don't like needing to put so much on. Oh well!
The final verdict? I'm on the fence with this one. While I did find it messy, I also liked the feeling of pulling the mask off. My skin felt good after, but I am not entirely sure if was more luminous or not!
