MAC Volcanic Ash Thermal Mask Review

I purchased a MAC Volcanic Ash Thermal Mask sometime last week from the Style Black Collection and I finally tried it today.

MAC description:

Formulated with Volcanic Ash and natural oils, this ash-black facial mask simultaneously deep-cleanses and treats the skin. When water is added, the mask heats up and the oils instantly lubricate the skin, leaving it feeling soft and clean. Helps keep skin moist, clean, soft, and evenly-textured. Limited edition.

Ingredients:

Price: $19.50 at MAC

My Thoughts:

The first thing I have to say is that I have no idea what volcanic ash smells like. When I sniffed the product, the only scent I got was ash! Nothing fruity or floral. Just ash. LOL! You only smell it if you sniff so my advice is just don't sniff! :) So I followed the instructions to apply with moist hands to still moist skin (to activate the heat) and left it on for a bit more than the instructed 5 mins. After rinsing, I felt soooooo clean and and soft. My skin was very moisturized so my pores appeared smaller too! :)

Overall, I really like the product but it felt wierd to have black stuff all over my face. It was a good thing that I did not do it in front of my husband because I think I would have scared him like when I do my sheet masks. :)

Rating: 5/5

I would and would not rebuy this product because it is a limited edition product. The price will probably be jacked up like crazy on ebay by the time I finish and I like trying new products.

Hope this review is useful! Have a nice day! :)
