Disadvantages: Lots

The Hydra Radiance Vitamin Boost Mask is another product that is featuring heavily in the clearance section of Avon's brochures at present. It seems like a real bargain when it is available for just a pound or two, but even at that price it is too much. The Hydra Radiance range has recently been remodelled by Avon, so beware of any new products that appear to be suspiciously too much like this one.

This product is basically a super greasy moisturiser. It claims to be a vitamin boost mask, but I fail to see what makes it a face mask. It is just a moisturiser that contains a few vitamins. What strikes me immediately about the vitamins it contains however, is that vitamin E is not at the top of the list. As every woman should know, vitamin E is the single most important vitamin for skin repair!

Applying this product is not a very pleasant experience due to the greasy feel of this product. It half sits on the skin and half absorbs, which at least means that a few vitamins are sinking I suppose.

The biggest problem I had with this product was that it irritated my eyes and left my skin feeling really greasy after use. I appreciate I should have avoided my eye area as directed, but usually a tiny amount of a facial product like this would not cause my eye to water quite so dramatically as it did. I did not count on my skin feeling so greasy and slimey after use either.

Summary: Avoid
