Avene Soothing Moisture Mask

I stumbled across this little gem by accident!

I've mentioned before that I have very sensitive skin that cannot handle any harsh ingredients, with this in mind I was recommended a cleanser and toner duo from a brand that I had not heard of before called Avene.

I ordered the toner and cleanser from http://www.escentual.com and they kindly told me that I had earnt a free surprise gift with the order (yipeeeeee) 

As it turns out I'm not the biggest fan of the cleanser and toner from Avene but that's a different story! I would say that it was worth ordering them purely for my free gift which came in the form of  the Avene Soothing Moisture Mask. 

This face mask is absolutely amazing! It states that it can be used daily but I don't like to overload my skin with products so I decided to treat myself once a week on a Saturday morning when my skin may be in need of a little papering after a Friday night pub session... 

The mask is in the form of a cream which you apply generously to your face. I remember the first time I used it I was amazed because I applied a thick layer and in less than five minutes the cream had completely disappeared. The instructions advise you to pat off any extra cream at this time but I found that my skin seemed to have sucked up the lot! 

My skin was left feeling super soft and hydrated and the mask had left it looking very glowy (if that's a word).  I would say that people who have more of an oily skin type need to be careful as it can leave your skin feeling a little greasy if you apply too much, but for me, it provided the perfect base to apply your foundation on top to give that dewy effect (perhaps just use a bit more powder throughout the day on the areas that usually need it!) 

If you feel like your skin is looking a little dry and lifeless then I would definitely say that this little guy is the one for you! Unfortunately mine has just run out so I am 100 percent going to repurchase which I actually don't often do. 

Thanks for reading!
