How lớn Use

Apply a thin but visibly green layer on the skin after all your skincare at night, wait 10 minutes, wipe off excess và go khổng lồ sleep without washing off – this is how use is recommended.

Texture wise, it is a smooth và creamy pistachio-coloured paste with the consistency of a face gel-cum-cream. Since this is a hydrating masque, I am very happy with the consistency. I vày experience a very cooling sensation on my skin when the mask is on. It feels so very refreshing ladies! There is no tingling effect, just the cooling effect which soothes the skin. The masque is decently priced, smells good & most importantly, leaves my skin feeling & looking good. It adheres khổng lồ skin very well, making it easy to go about doing my chores, work or just lazing around. No worries there about mess.

Admittedly, the Cilantro & Orange Extract Pollutant Defending Masque is a great multi-tasking masque because there’s just so many ways you can use it. Whether it’s as a substitute for night cream as a sleeping masque or as an instant facial that will have your skin protected and set for the rest of the day. If you want lớn stretch your dollar, this is the masque to get. I didn’t experience any tightness or dryness after applying it. It does tingle a bit on your face – but this is not a discomfort. The mask is more of a creamy mask with excellent moisturizing properties, with a variety of both emollients và humectants. This would be pretty great for someone with dry skin. And, for those who love plant-derived ingredients, this sản phẩm contains tons of them at very high percentages – the third ingredient of the mask is Shea Butter, và there are a variety of other plant oils & extracts. This has worked very well for my sensitive skin that prone to lớn breakouts, as it helps to calm skin. The very emollient properties of this product would help to form a barrier against transepidermal water loss (or, just water being lost through the skin), which means that for those in dry climates, or those with dry skins, would see an improvement with this product. The AHA in the product is especially beneficial in tackling breakouts – but this also makes the skin sensitive to the sun. So it is extremely important khổng lồ use extra sunscreen when you are using this product. In the day, when you’re more likely khổng lồ be exposed lớn the sun & UV rays, it won’t be advisable lớn have this on your skin.

How I Use it

I put a thin layer of this mask on after waiting a good 5 minutes for the night serum to get in my skin. I then waited 7 minutes to tissue off residue, & left a thin layer on the skin lớn work overnight as instructed. The mask felt cool và soothing when I applied it, và tingled a bit, but in a good way! It felt lượt thích the product was getting into my skin và uplifting dirt. I also use two other ways to lớn apply this mask at least thrice a week. I apply a thin but visibly green layer lớn the skin after all your skincare routine, but just before moisturiser so this replaces the moisturiser step, và go khổng lồ sleep. Alternately, I sometimes apply a slightly thicker layer of mask khổng lồ the skin after cleansing, wait about 30 minutes, then rinse off.

Effects

The Kiehl’s Cilantro & Orange Extract Pollutant Defending Masque tingles slightly when you first apply it, but it absorbs quickly và I sometimes just leave it on without wiping it off with a tissue – especially in the night.

When I woke up in the morning, my skin looked clear, fresh, & tight. I even noticed that the very fine lines are nearly gone. My skin tone is even và glowing. I woke up feeling like my face was plump và hydrated, yet also firm! It looked lovely and bright as well, reducing my ‘here và there’ pimples. I sprayed my face with toner water, let it sink in for about 30 seconds, & took a cotton ball over my face as I vày every morning.. And to my surprise, a TON of dirt came off! After washing it off, I felt the pores were getting clearer và refreshing! After using it for a fortnight consecutively, three times per week, I can see my skin is brighter and acne marks are much lighter! The masque does vì chưng a good job of brightening and intensely hydrating your skin in just 5 minutes. My face was super soft, deeply hydrated & noticeably brighter.
