Moisturizing Moon Mask

This mask is so different but in a really good way. First of all, it's less like a mask and more like a thick moisturizer. It doesn't dry down like a typical mask or like the photo suggests, it more like stays wet and absorbs into your skin, which is the pleasantly interesting aspect of this mask. You can literally see/feel it absorbing into your skin the longer you leave it on, which is how you know your skin is soaking up all the good moisture from mask rather than just having it sit on your skin and washing it away. The main hydrator in this mask happens to be sweet almond oil, and as an acne prone girl, I was pretty weary because I wasn't too familiar of sweet almond oil's affects on acne prone skin. I did a little research, and it turns out that sweet almond oil is actually non comedogenic AND that almond oil has vitamin a, which breaks down sebum, the oil that most commonly causes clogged pores and acne. I haven't experienced any breaking out from this mask so my research must ring true. I was also worried that the oil in this mask would leave an oily film on my skin or make my skin extra-oily, but after washing it off my skin had a kind of matte finish but was plump and felt hydrated and moist, not oily, which is great! Another pleasant surprise that came with this mask is the tingly feeling that it produces on your skin... it's the right kind of tingly feeling, for me at least. Almost like an icy cooling sensation, not burning or stinging or any of that. I like it. This mask left my skin feeling soother and moisturized. 10/10 would recommend.

I love the moon mask! I didn't have super high expectations, as I've tried a lot of products in every price range for my super dry skin without success, but the moon mask has become a go-to item that I plan to use for a long time. It's given my skin lasting moisture that makes my skin look bright and bouncy, and has taken the aggravation out of makeup application because I no longer have flakey spots. (Bonus points: immediately after I started using the mask, my sister asked me what skincare I'd been using because my skin looks noticeably better!) Love that the formula is gentle enough that I can use it a few times a week in the winter without breakouts or irritation.

This product, along with the Milky Jelly Cleanser, helped to heal, soothe & bring moisture back to my skin after I suffered from sudden cystic acne last year for about six months. I have an EXTREMELY sensitive, fair & thin skin and every time I put this mask on it's like all is right in the world. Perfect for those with sunburnt skin (put it in the fridge first for an extra cooling effect), dehydrated skin from the weather, central heating, or constant air conditioning, or those who's skin has gone through an allergic reaction, suffer from rosacea, inflammation, or acne! This mask is an actual miracle, and I'm so grateful there's no bad stuff like mineral oil or fragrance in it. I just received my second pot, put it on last night for good two hours, washed it off before going to bed, and woke up with a smooth, plump, evened out face. My top advice is to leave it on for as long ad possible to get the maximum benefits - there's nothing in it that could clog up your pores, so you don't have to worry about that. It literally feels as fresh as having greek yoghurt on your face. Promise you'll love it!

My skin is very oily, so at the start of every day I have to cleanse my face and remove excess oil. Once doing that my skin, like everyone else's, needs a treatment that will bring moisture back into my face without making my oily or greasy. Usually I just use a light moisturizer, but on a day when I'm going out and spending time with friends, I like my skin to have a bit more "oomf" so to speak. This mast gives me exactly that. I leave a good amount on my face for around thirty minutes, rinse off the excess, and my skin looks and feels extremely smooth. It also tones down my redness, which means I have to wear less face makeup. This mask feels cool on the skin and doesn't sting at all, which is refreshing after so many masks that definitely fall under the "beauty is pain" regime. This mask is also not abrasive in the slightest, so it can be used every day, easy. I used to be an avid sheet mask applier, and didn't really know face masks existed in tubs that lasted for more than one use. After my sister introduced me to the concept, I've tried a significant amount of them with her. Never have I tried a face mask that is as cooling, moisturizing, or refreshing as this one, even amongst my sister's high end brands. I will definitely be purchasing this again when I run out, most likely in conjuncture with the other face mask Glossier sells.

I was so intensely disappointed by this "moisturizing" mask. I do have slightly sensitive skin, sure, but not so sensitive that I would have anticipated the reaction I had. After 2 uses within a 1.5 week span my skin became dry, red, itchy, bumpy, all around awful. It's like the mask killed the top layer of my skin, and now it's all flaking off in disgusting patches. Seriously, if you have even the slightest concern that you might have a similar reaction, don't try this mask. I wish I would have read some of the negative reviews before purchasing. I was too seduced by Glossier's claims of, "glowing, dewy skin." Instead, I have this trash fire to deal with.
