Review : Elizabeth Arden Hydrating Mask


Product Description
An intensive hydrating treatment in the form of a mask where regular use helps to maintain suppleness of complexion, resulting in a younger and firmer looking skin.

I hardly ever purchase Elizabeth Arden products as it just does not appeal to me, for some reason. However, during a trip to Hong Kong some time back, I picked up this 100ml sized hydrating mask for HKD68 since it was so affordable.
I am glad that I have given this brand a chance as this hydrating mask has been an excellent emergency mask that works beautifully when the skin needs it so very badly.

Soft and creamy, the texture is reminiscent of a clay mask and provides a cool minty touch to the skin, after application. On parched areas, it stings slightly.
The tube, made of soft pliable material, has a large gap that has the cream oozes out easily when its being depressed. It gets slightly cumbersome once the contents are at the end as you have to depress the tube with more strength, just to get the contents out.

10 minutes is all it needs to work its magic on parched skin. It delivers moisture to all the dehydrated areas just where you need it most. Flakiness disappeared, leaving in its place, well-hydrated, refreshed and comfortable skin. Redness that is caused by dehydrated or parched skin will also be greatly reduced. However, this mask is best used as an emergency hydrating mask because the effects do not last very long. For that important date in the evening or an important meeting with a client in 2 hours' time, this mask definitely helps.
You do need daily application for several days before the effects last beyond a day.

It scored 4 from 22 users on Makeupalley.

Update (30th Oct 13) :
With my second tube, I realized its not that effective on my skin anymore. Flakiness is still apparent after usage. I probably would not get the next tube.
