Annie's Way Arbutin + Hyaluronic Acid Brightening Jelly Mask REVIEW




Hello hello! I'm back with a review ;) 

I've recently received this mask in the mail and was jumping for joy (internally); but seriously I've been wanting to try out this mask for a while now, because I saw bubzbeauty using it and raving about it. I don't know why it took me to long to muster up the courage to order this little fella. However, here it is, live, in the flesh, let's do this review!


What it does:
According to the Annie's Way website it claims that... "Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Mask Hyaluronic Acid is a highly effective hydrating agent that locks in moisture. It tightens and increases skin's elasticity making your skin irresistibly smooth and soft."

How to use it:

First things first, you must cleanse your face, yep that's right, just like any masks you want to wash that face clean. Then, it states that you should apply a toner before applying this mask (but let's be honest, ain't nobody got time for that, so I simply skip this step) and finally, apply the mask with the spatula that is (should be) included when you order this mask. Remember to apply the mask liberally all over your face (0.3 - 0.5 cm is the thickness you're going for here guys) Next, you simply wait for 30 minutes (15 minutes for sensitive skin)

This is what the masks looks like on the skin, so you get a better idea of the texture, it definitely lives up to its' jelly name that for sure! Here, I am trying my best to spread the mask evenly to the recommened thickness. The key thing is to get it to cover your face k? no pressure.




After the 30 minutes is up, you want to go ahead to (gentlyscrape the mask off and wipe your face with a tissue to remove the leftover residue and then rinse with water. Continue with your moisturizer and you're done! It is recommended to use this mask twice a week or as needed.




What I think about it:

Let me just say, I absoluteeely loooove this mask! I was seriously skeptical at the beginning, I kept thinking, "what the diddle doo is so special about this mask?! it's just a clear jelly!" but boy, was I wrong as ever! My first impression of this mask is "wow, this feels sooo good on!" It seriously does! Can't afford to go to a spa for a facial? have no fear, this mask will make you feel like you're in a spa (with the help of a dimmed room, essential oils and a comfy place to rest your head on, of course. Hehehe) Now, let's get to the real stuff, the results... after I scraped the mask off and washed my face, I instantly felt like my skin got more plump. After I applied my moisturizer, my face felt soft as a baby's bum and oh so bouncy. My skin also appreared significantly brighter and dare I say lighter? I personally don't want/need a mask that will lighten my skin as I preffer to be more tan but it's honestly no big deal, especially with all the other benefits this mask brings to my skin. Alright, so let's go back to the claim they've stated on their website, shall we? 

"Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Mask Hyaluronic Acid is a highly effective hydrating agent that locks in moisture. It tightens and increases skin's elasticity making your skin irresistibly smooth and soft."

Locks in moisture: yep.
Tightens: YASS!
Increases skin's elasticity: oh yea.
Irresistibly smooth and soft: YES YES YES! I can't stop touching my cheeks!


What more can I say about this mask other than that I love it, and my brother absolutely enjoys it too! hahaha :p I'm definitely going to purchase a couple more of this mask and a couple more masks from the Annie's Way brand!


I purchased my mask from YesStyle 


Let me know if you're going to try the mask or got any questions!


Ciao,
