Review
When I saw this pack I really thought it was so cute and super promising. I say this because I think Skinfood's wash off masks are amazing and all smell so yummy, then there sleeping packs must be great too right?!
The scent is amazing, best scent I've discovered this year in skincare! The scent has 0% of pumpkin in it, but a 100% stewed pear custard scent. This scent is a 100% dupe of this product, which is my main daily dessert in fall. The scent fades fast after you've applied & massaged it into your skin.
The consistency is like a watery cream with a white color and orange hard dots. The cream spreads out fast and easy, kind of melts. For a normal cream you would say; With this pack I wasn't sure if "less is more" or "the more the better" so I tried both ways.
The feeling on the skin, no matter the amount you put on, feels very okay, not really wow. No matter how long you wait, this pack will not dry on the outside, your skin will feel wet and greasy all night!
The first night, I had a hard time falling a sleep with this mask, since it felt cold and wet and the crease between my chin and lips was itchy. Then in the middle of the night I woke up from the pain on my face. In every crease of my face this mask was burning painfully. Similar kind of burning when you have a tearing eye that will not stop (for whatever reason) and you skin stays wet and dehydrates at the same time. So in every crease of my face it burned like that; my eye crease (didn't say avoid eyes and I apply everything always on my eyes), between my chin and lips crease and the crease under my nostrils.
So I washed it of immediately and I needed lukewarm water else it wouldn't go off my face. The next morning I had a dry patch on my eye lid (that's new!) and one under one of my nostrils.
The next evening I thought let's put a thin layer on there and see for like 1 hour how it feels. Well same thing happened. It didn't dry at all. and when you would touch your face you fingers feel sticky and icky! Then it started itching in the crease between my chin and lips at first and then on my entire face it started to feel weird and slightly burning. more like a cold kind of burning. So I washed it off directly.
I kind of feel that because this pack doesn't it sort of dehydrates and irritates the skin in a way. I'm not sure if I got this science all right, but that's kind of how it feels; it sucks!
There weren't any other results than these, it did absolutely nothing good for my skin.
Do I recommend?
HELL NO!
Sadly because it smells so good,
but seriously save your skin, don't buy this!
