10 Reasons Why you Need to Incorporate Face Masks into Your Life

I know that not everybody is into skin care. I’ve met people who still use bar soap on their face.. no I’m not talking about specially made skin care soap. I’m talking regular bar soap that they also use to wash their.... never mind. I’m not knocking you but I will say that if you do have skincare issues that generic soap is probably not going to get rid of them.

I am a big believer in skin care routines. You target pesky skin care problems such as discolouration, oily skin or even peeling and flaking. Like I know people who swear by homemade scrubs/mask made out of fruit/vegetables. For the ones who don’t have a lot of time or are just downright lazy...package masks are your best bet.

Beauty News: Montagne Jeunesse, Victoria Secret & Philosophy

Montagne Jeunesse Glacial Clay Spa Masques

Last May, I had the opportunity to go to the Montagne Jeunesse Glacial Clay Spa Masques event hosted my FarleyCo. I've been a long time user of the masques and couldn't wait to hear about the new line:  Glacial Clay, Red Earth &  Dead Sea Mud Clay.

Glacial Clay

Glacial Clay, sourced from Canada’s Northwest Coast, cools, rehydrates and clears pores deep down to remove impurities. Sourced from the glacial heights of Scandinavia, nutrient-rich anti-oxidant Cloudberries is an anti-oxidant that soothes the skin and high in nutrients.

Red Earth Clay Spa 

Prepare your skin for a truly incredible, fresh pulped and juiced, deep cleansing journey. Montagne Jeunesse has infused Mediterranean Clay with suitably spicy Cinnamon and pulped Pomegrantes to protect. This juicy boost will captivate your skin and senses.

Dead Sea Mud Clay Spa

Breathe life back into skin with intensely invigorating & revitalising Dead Sea Minerals. We’ve harvested the oceans nutrient rich Seaweed & Kelp right from the source - A satisfying boost for thirsty skin & then some!

These products are $2.49 CAN and all vegetarian friendly. 

Fabulous by Victoria's Secret

I love floral scents for the summer because they are light and not over powering. One of the scents that I have in rotation at the moment is Fabulous by Victoria Secret ($65 USA).

Forever sexy. Forever Fabulous. Go glam in this thrilling blend of juicy currant, osmanthus blossom and pink freesia from our Victoria’s Secret Fabulous collection. Spray on eau de parfum for irresistibly fresh Fabulous scent that lingers.

Notes: Juicy currant, osmanthus blossom and pink freesia
Domestic

This fragrance is very feminine plus can also be purchased in a body cream and lotion.

Philosophy
total matteness

For the nights when it's hot but there is no sun out, you need a product to keep you matte. Total matteness from Philosophy ($40.00 CAN) would be one of my picks.

A serum designed to instantly refine the appearance of pores and improve the look of pores over time.

Tip: A little bit goes a long way. I made the mistake the first time to use a lot and once it dried it didn't "stay" on my face. I just washed my face and tried it again with least product. No problems!

Visibly reduce the size and appearance of pores with this powerful, mattifying serum. Lentil seed extract helps support the pore wall, making pores less apparent, while salicylic acid helps remove build-up of dead cells around the pore wall, brightening their darkened appearance. Natural bamboo extract helps absorb excess oil and control shine for a soft-touch finish.

This serum can be used as a primer. Use it on dry skin for the best results.

Montagne Jeunesse Chocolate Masks!

The weather in Ontario is amazing right now!

I've been trying to soak up every minute of it. Don't worry I have been lathering on the SPF to prevent any skin damage.

The SPF I use is non-comedogenic but I have been using my Montagne Jeunesse masks just to maintain moisture in my skin.

The theme for May is Chocolate!

I can't eat as much of it as I want. So why not put it on my face?

This week I used Montagne Jeunesse Hot Chocolate Masque.

Take a deep breath of our self – warming Chocolate Orange masque and you'll be in chocolate heaven! Mediterranean Clay cleanses dirt and oils from deep within pores. Rich dark chocolate and orange oil leave skin feeling soft and refreshed.

 

I love masks in general but my face always feels refreshed after using any of the Montagne Jeunesse ones. 

I swear there is no sexy way to take a picture wearing a mask.
So I will just leave you all with a shot of my eyes.

Have you tried a Chocolate mask before?

I love Montagne Jeunesse Masks!

Very few people know this but I love face masks! 

My love started at 14 when I use to make my own concoctions. It was fun but a total mess. Once I started to make my own money, I bought the ones at the store. They were cheaper and much more effective. Montagne Jeunesse is among my favorites.

We pulp, crush, squeeze, juice and extract all of the goodness of nature's fruits and flowers to help make you beautiful. All products are vegetarian, never tested on animals or use suppliers who have, and are as green and eco-friendly as possible.

I reviewed the "Crystallised Honey & Passion Flower Mask"  in one of my earlier posts. 

It was gentle and smelled great.

 I'm thinking of creating a mask series to show you all what I use. 

Would you like to see that?
