I was so excited to buy this mask. I love most of the Glow Recipe stuff I've tried...
The packaging was beautiful, as always, and the smell was okay, although not as nice as I have come to expect from Glow Recipe, more like a faint, fake, creamy strawberry smell than the lovely fruity experience you associate with the brand. No matter.
I do have sensitive skin and the mask says it is gentle enough to use for 5 minutes every day. I tried 3 minutes the first day, and my skin stung so badly, everything I put on it after hurt. skipped a day and tried 2 mins, skipped a day and tried 2 minutes, but it made my skin so uncomfortable.
