This is a setting mask so if you haven’t got a lot of time keep the layer thing but if you are having a pamper session lay it on as thick as you can. Sometimes if I am in a rush I put enough on to work and then if you fold the packet up you have another masque.
It doesn’t always work it depends on the mask but worth a try if you can get two for one. Sometimes the setting ones sit in the packet, unfortunately.
When you apply the product, it gives a cooling feeling which I think is nice and refreshing. What surprised me is that the entire time I had the masque on the cool sensation was present. I could feel it tingling on my skin which shows it is doing something at least. If you are like me, you like your product that you can feel working check this product out.
This one is a pale pink colour and has quite a creamy consistency. One thing I really like about this brand of the masque is that there is always more than enough in the packet. I find that I can normally put on a nice thick layer of it but I do have a small face so that could be different for others. Let me know what you think.
I found myself reaching for this one because purifying is exactly what I wanted my skin to do, clear out all the rubbish to get close to having pure healthy skin and I have been getting dry skin so anything with moisturiser in is a bonus.
As I was noticing some deep build-up of products, I wanted to try the strong ones, but be careful as they aren’t made for everyone. So, I choose the Montagne Jeunesse Strawberry Souffle. This is a purifying and moisturising masque.
I start off by taking my makeup off and using a cleanser, by taking your makeup off and cleansing allows the mask to get all the stubborn dirt instead of just the top layer of makeup. Then I apply mu masque with a brush. The packet said to leave it on for 15-20 minutes, but I tend to leave it on for longer. I try and leave the mask on for as long as possible to allow it to work its magic. If it is a setting masque I try and leave it on until it has completely set which can take a while depending on how thick you applied, it. (a setting mask can be a bit painful to remove once completely hard so soak it off). I always put masques on slightly damp skin as I found this works best unless it tells you to put it on dry skin in the instructions so be sure to check.
I have recently gotten into using masks if it a hair masque or a face masque. I was studying beauty and makeup at college for the past two years which meant I was putting all sorts of products on my skin. What most people don’t realise is that while trying out new products is good, trying too many in a short period of time can ultimately reverse the effects. Some days I was applying heavy-duty makeup 4 or 5 times. Makeup isn’t the best thing for your skin, some people can get away with wearing makeup all day every day without worrying but other people including me must make sure all the makeup is off at the end of the day, and I am using nice skincare, well at least skincare that agrees with me. It is so important to look after your skin because once you have ruined the one you have you aren’t going to get another one.
I was starting to notice the products taking their toll on my skin and it became irritated and someday even painful, so I took to the big bad world of beauty products in search of something to revive my skin. This is how I became slightly obsessed with face masks. If you find the right ones and use them correctly, they are little miracles in a product. When buying masks, it is important to read what it does on the tin or in the case packet. If you want to give your skin a little boost you don’t want to get a strong pungent clay deep cleansing masque.
When I took it off there was a little bit of difference in my skin, not major but it made a minor improvement. I expect that if you were to use it regularly then you would see a bigger difference. I would 100% repurchase this as I did like it and would like to see if the difference improves with more frequent use. Everyone knows it isn’t going to be amazing with just one use. Yes, I would recommend it, let me know how you get on.
