Happy bank holiday! Enjoy the day off & the weather! Sadly I’m at work again so this @sephora sleeping mask has been giving me that extra umph. .

SEPHORA ALGAE SLEEPING MASK
It claims to be a rich cream-gel textured sleeping mask infused with algae.
Whilst sleeping it aims to cleanse and detoxify skin to help to eliminate impurities for a fresh, radiant morning complexion. The mask itself is a gel based formula, it's easy to apply, just put onto clean skin and let it soak in. A little goes a long way, you can get two uses out of one pot (at a push). It does feel a little sticky at first but after it soaks in it doesn't feel as bad. It leaves a nice cooling feeling. With overnight masks I usually am quite greasy in the morning, but I didn't have this when using this mask. I washed my face as normal, my skin looked smoother, mattified and any angry redness from blemishes had been reduced. That's a win in my book...would I buy again? Yes if Sephora items weren't so hard to get hold of! ✔️
PROS: 1. Inexpensive and travel size
2. Reduces redness and blemish size
3. Easy to use
CONS: 1. Not a miracle worker, no change to pore size
2. Hard to get hold of in the UK .

@skynicelanduk FRESH START FACE MASK
This is a two phase mask claiming to detox and brighten, whilst being an anti-aging, dullness diminishing super power. Phase I is made up of blue clay and a 13,000 year old oxygenating mud from the Ice Age. Phase II is formulated with a highly effective AHA acid gel complex composed of 5 fruit and sugar acids that work deeply to detoxify and refine skin. Sounds promising! I applied phase one to clean skin spreading the blue clay evenly over my face. The clay was easy to apply, smooth and thick. Next, I opened phase two and spread the gel evenly and then massaged it into the blue clay. The gel was very slimey, when the two were massaged together it started to create a warming foam. It felt very odd and looked even worse. I left the mixture on my face for about 10mins, then washed it off with a damp cloth and followed with my normal toner. My skin felt smooth, soft and looked much brighter after use. I really saw results straight away, it improved tone and texture and seemed to have polished away dull, dead skin cells.
SKYN ANTIDOTE DAILY COOLING LOTION
This is a lightweight cooling daily lotion to deliver moisture without feeling heavy or greasy. I use this after the mask and after my toner, gently patting it onto my face and neck. It really provides an odd cooling sensation which I love, like the splash of cold water! This lotion hydrates, controls oiliness, soothes irritation and prevents breakouts. I love the cooling sensation, it makes my skin feel so clean.✔️
PROS: 1. The mask really made my skin feel soft & brightened skin tone.
2. The lotion provides a fab cooling sensation!
3. You can see the results straight away.
CONS: 1. The mask is quite messy
2. Both are quite easy to use but not as straight forward as a sheet mask
3. I would only use once a week or so
