Skin Care Review: St. Ives Peel-Off Hydroxy Masque

by Darcel Subran, Trinidad and Tobago, The Caribbean

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
smooth & glowing skin, fine lines temporarily removed

Drawbacks
slight burning around nose and lips (sensitive skin, skin feels oily after

Details
I would recommend this product more for aged skin, although it has lovely benefits for younger skin. It used it on my aunt and you should have seen the difference!

Be careful when you apply it. It is a bit sticky and runny, so if it runs into your eyes... Ouch. It burns slightly around my nose and mouth, but it goes away. I spread the masque on thickly which takes one hour to dry out.

When you peel it off, WOW!! It looks as if you woke up from a great night of love making (stay with me here). Your skin is dewy and glowy and just radiant. Fine lines are filled and dead cells are gone. I use it the night before a special occassion. i think that it's about comparable to having an apricot scrub.

Oh, when you peel it off, your skin feels a bit oily after. Just use a gentle cleanser and moisturizerto finish.

I've started using this product on my hands, feet, elbows and neck - all with great results. My boyfriend used it on his ashy, acne ridden back and it really helped. But you need someone to slather it on for you!!

Conclusions
Worth the price. Delivers what it promises.
