Anatomicals Anti Stress Beauty Face Mask 15ml - Look, You've Got Chocolate All Over Your Face, Face Masks Skincare Bundle, 3 Pack

This face mask smells too much and looks too much like chocolate 😅 it feels very soothing though when on my face. But all I smell is chocolate!

First impression when I saw this product - I love the packaging, they have tried to make it a little quirky with a fun slogan and it works. All the various masks in the range have different coloured packaging and fun slogans. For this reason, the product would make a suitable gift as part of a pamper basket or similar. The seller has a few different face masks and this particular item is a deep cleansing mud mask. I'm not convinced face masks actually do anything to control spots and other blemishes, but I think it's still good practice to use a face mask, maybe once a week, to give your skin a good deep clean. At the time of writing this review, you get 3 15ml sachets for £3.99, so £1.33 each which is slightly more than you pay for a 15ml sachet mask on the high street, but still reasonable value for money. Before applying the mud mask, cleanse your face with warm water (I find a warm flannel helps to open your pores ready for the mask) and apply contents, avoiding the eye area. Leave to dry and relax for 5-10 minutes, and rinse. Rinsing off mud masks over the bathroom sink can be messy, so I prefer to use mine just before I'm planning to get in the shower. The mud mask has a slight scent, smooths easily over the skin and feels pleasant. After use, my skin felt soft and very clean; I would recommend this product. Bonus points from me as this product is vegan friendly.

You get three sachets of the mask, and the mask is made in the UK.Before using the mask, the pack recommends that you soak your face with a moist warm cloth, this is to open the pores. The mask was easy to dispense from the pack and to put on my face. I put more on my T zone and just a little everywhere else. I know the pack says to let it allow 10-15 minutes for it to dry, but it depends the time of year you are using it. It took about 20 minutes for the mask to completely dry. To rinse it off I just went into the shower and done it that way.You only need to use the mask once a week. After I had used the mask, my skin felt a lot cleaner and fresher than before.

This mask works effectively to improve (not really erase) the appearance of pimples, whiteheads and blackheads. However, the texture of it needs improvement. It's the kind that is hard to apply because the second you try to spread it in your fingers even gently, it ends up all on your fingers and leaving clear patches on your skin, it doesn't spread easily and evenly. It's also very difficult to get the right amount and thickness. I spent the entire envelope and got what I thought was a pretty thick layer just to find out when it dried and I looked at myself in the mirror that when drying, it shrunk, and left tons of uneven or poorly/barely covered skin patches. Additionally, my skin felt a bit burning, specially in areas close to the eyes, when I had just put it on. I left it for a bit more than the time it said, and only noticed a slight improvement on my skin. It has no smells or odours (at least none particularly noticeable), it feels soft, it doesn't drop out of your face, it's easy to clean from clothes if you get stains, and it's easy to remove by gently rubbing your skin with generous amounts of water and a bit of soap.

These are compact packets as they’re not sheet masks, with a tear strip at the top to get into them. You get 15ml of mud mask goodness in each sachet, and I went for the cleansing ones (with the comical “farewell the scarlet pimplehell” on the front) that are designed to reduce spots and blackheads, boost circulation, tighten the skin and clarify pores via 100% pure clays with “special minerals”.To use, soak your face first and dry it (the brand suggests soaking with a warm cloth then blotting dry), apply the mask and leave it for 10-15 minutes (I give it the full 15). Once it’s done, just remove it with some warm water and/or a wet face cloth.The product is grey/green in colour as you might expect from a mud mask. It has a slight scent to it that I can’t put my finger on. It's pleasant enough and there’s nothing off-putting about it in my opinion. It smooths onto the face easily and I used my fingers to apply it. It’s messy, as are all such masks, so I make sure to do it over the sink and then wash my hands as soon as I’ve applied it and thrown away the empty packet.You get enough in the pack that you can cover the whole face and forehead, and put more on any problem areas if you like. I didn’t have oodles left over like I have before with some masks, but I wasn’t short on product either so in my mind the amount is just enough.To wash off, the brand suggests using a wet cloth. I splashed Luke warm water on my face to get the majority of it off before using a damp cloth to get the rest off, and that worked well. It came away without too much difficulty as I didn’t have to scrub my skin too much. Then I splashed cool water on afterwards and that was that.I usually follow up masks and cleansers with moisturiser but after the first mask of this set I used, I didn’t have time and skipped it. Thankfully my skin didn’t complain so the product didn’t dry my skin out or leave it feeling tight as many can. It felt fairly soft and nicely cleansed, even if it wasn’t anything hugely spectacular in either respect. They’re neat, convenient little masks and I quite like these deep cleansing ones, so I’d say they’re a decent buy at £4.99 RRP for three of them.

I really like the design of these masks and if you’re making up a pamper hamper as a gift this would be a great inclusion as it’s funky packaging.You get 3 single use sachets. They are fairly easy to apply across the face and I felt them to be a big tingly when first on. I have rosacea and I do have to be careful but fortunately I found these didn’t cause a flair up. I found them helpful using once a week to keep things at bay.
