Advantages: Makes your skin feel clean, Good price, Smells nice

Disadvantages: Takes 20 minutes to dry out

Have you ever tried a ‘peel off’ facemask? No? Oh, you should they’re great fun!

I have just used the one from the Avon Naturals Range called Avon Peel Off Mask with Grapefruit, containing extract of pink grapefruit. It is suitable for all skin types even sensitive skin, and it smells nice too.

It is made by Avon Cosmetics and available either direct from Avon or from your Avon representative. It costs round about £3 for a 75ml tube. I would guess that, used properly, you would get about ten applications from a tube, so it’s good value.

To use it I first put a hair band on to keep what hair I do have off my face. I then cleansed my face as instructed and applied a coat of the facemask all over my face and under my chin.

I then had to wait twenty minutes until it had dried and I could gently peel the whole thing off. You’ve seen the horror films where someone peels their face off haven’t you? Well, you get the idea!

As with any other facemask you have to keep your face relatively still while the mask is drying or it comes away from your face forming a dry layer, which obviously reduces its effectiveness.

The other thing to be aware of is that you should not put too much on in the first place or will not dry out properly. I put a thin layer over most of my face but rather more than I should have done on my cheeks.

This area didn’t dry out properly and I had to wash it off with warm water rather than peel it off as I did with the rest of the mask.

I had used the mask as I was going out somewhere special and my skin felt very lifeless. The facemask was just what I needed as it made my skin feel really clean, fresh and tingly.

The only thing I would say is – don’t answer the door while you’re wearing it you could frighten someone to death!
