EXPERIENCE:

This is a fragrance-free mask that's large enough to cover my entire face. I leave this for only 15-20 mins and it definitely helped in soothing my active pimple! It leaves my skin soft and supple and It gives a cooling sensation. Dry skin people will also love this because it's moisturizing! However, it takes a while before the serum to be fully absorbed and it leaves a sticky feeling after so you really need to pat in the serum. Overall, this is a mask to consider especially if you like to try a soothing one with moisturizing properties.
