Remember that DIY facial mask I told y'all about? While it did tighten up my skin, it has NOTHING on my latest discovery. I mean, nothing. Not to mention the DIY one was so messy and hard to apply. And if I'm being completely honest, the smell of it kinda made me gag a little.
Soooo, allow me to introduce you to the ...
Queen Helene Mud Pack Masque that I got this weekend from Sally's Beauty Supply:
I washed my face, then used my fingers to blend the masque. It was a breeze to apply and it tingled a little at first (good tingle). I thought the "mud" would smell creepy, but it had a very floral scent to it and here is it how it looks as it starts to dry:
About 10 minutes after application, I looked in the mirror and couldn't believe how much it was opening up my pores. This is gross, but I think it's worth showing so you can see how well it cleanses your skin. I cannot believe I'm posting this picture to the world. Please still love me.
See what I mean? Opens your pores up like woah! |
Don't walk, but run to Sally's. Sorry about that oatmeal DIY recommendation. I had no idea something like this existed. Smooches bargainistas. XOXO.
My sister uses stuff from this brand, pretty sure she used this too. I will be running to Sally's for this. My face/skin is so acting up, not cute.
ReplyDeleteHave a good Monday Blondie!
xo SARMIN
OMG,that's awesome! I'm totally gonna get this! Thanks so much for the recommendation! And, don't worry, we all still love you :)
ReplyDeleteI have Queen Helene's Mint Julip mask. It works like that too and has this cooling feeling to it. It's great stuff. I'll have to try this mud mask!
ReplyDeleteyou look beautiful even with a muddy mask on your face. and that headband and high pony makes you look so chulo. i guess it's a texas thing. glad you were able to find something despite my excellent help of pointing you to the "beauty section" of target.
ReplyDeleteYou look great even with no makeup!! I'm so jelly! This sounds like a great find! I love that you were brave enough to show to pores picture, it really shows that it works!!!
ReplyDeleteI want to try it! But first let me know after a few days if it breaks you out...I have sensitive skin, so i am cautious about trying new skincare products....
ReplyDeleteYou are one braaave woman! But still fab without makeup!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review! Will be trying!
thanks for the great review! i'll have to try this one out!
ReplyDeleteYou always find the best stuff! I am intrigued and I will have to run to Sally's to check it out. I don't want wrinkles either and I'm weeks away from leaving my 20s! Ahhh! lol
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recommendation and if I get it I will def let you know what I think!
Happy Monday
I'm lucky to have skin that behaves pretty well. It'll rebel against me one day, though, as I never use sunscreen. Oops!
ReplyDeletethat's awesome, and yes still love ya! I have a mask that I use that I love!! I love how it tingles while I wear it and leaves my skin tight and clean feeling:) I tried it on my husband and he couldn't handle the tingling, he thought his face was going to melt off. Silly boy doesn't realize what we go thru to be pretty!!
ReplyDeleteI've used their mint mask (also a great product!!!) but haven't heard of this one before! I really want to try it!! Thanks for the heads up :)
ReplyDeletefirst can I just say I'm so bad with ages? I've always thought you were like 22! but giiirrrl you look fab for the "ripe old age of 26" even though thats not old at all!!
ReplyDeleteive always wanted to do a mask thing..while wearing cucumber eyes and drinking a lemonade (i watch too much trashy tv and movies)
this looks AMAZING! i think i have to run to sallys soon..good thing its only about 5 miles from my house. maybe ill drive in that case
xoxo
First of all, I WISH I had nerves to post pictures of myself like this on here. Truly.
ReplyDeleteSecond, you are too cute!
Third, I need this. ASAP.
On my way to the store right now to get some! Yikes! I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! Thanks for letting us know about it!

Um, I've got those same pores .... so guess who will be a follower and hit the hills for Sally's. Muah!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Queen Helene. I have been using their Mint Julep mask for years. I'll definitely be giving this one a try! I'm loving that this is just in a big tub so I don't have to worry about trying to squeeze anything out of a tube and then having it go everywhere. But yeah, I'll be trying this (hoping I'll look as gorgeous as you do with it on) and then maybe just maybe I won't want to get Botex anymore... :)
ReplyDeletehells bells, so that's the pic you were trying to send me. kinda scary. can't believe you put that out there.
ReplyDeleteJUUUUUST kidding. Um, you better believe that I'm going to go out and get that STAT. I mean, if it's as good as your FIRST facial that I unfortunately tried...
what the bargain blonde says, this momma does.
loooooove you!!!
ps your cleavage looks a little fun-house like in the second pic ;)
ReplyDeletestill love you for sure.
ReplyDeleteStill haven't tried the DIY mask... but I think I'll skip it now and get this. <3
I have been looking for a new face mask!! Thanks for the recommendation!!! :)
ReplyDeleteooh! I've seen that one before, but never tried it. I definitely will now! Thanks! :)

ok, so do the pores get small again? i need to know this because i basically have pores large enough to house small vermin.
ReplyDeleteBTW-i can't tell you how brave you are for trying a product called "queen helene." i was looking for a hair mask the other day at walmart and all they had was something called "tropic placenta." i'm sorry....no.
i've been using that mud masque forever ... i absolutely love it!! my pores look the same way when i use it, haha.
ReplyDeletedon't worry i still still love you, haha. even with spooky mask you are pretty!
Oh yes! I love face masks! I usually use an avocado and oatmeal mask I find at walmar (can't remember the brand) but lately I have been lazy! I really need it now too thanks to the four days at the beach with sunscreen all over my face!! Nasty skin is attacking me now... I must run to Sally's tomorrow!!!
ReplyDeleteI MUST get this! I love masks and im currently using an avacado mask but I want something thicker and this looks like it would be great. Thanks for the review.
ReplyDeleteXo
When you say Sally's do you mean Sally's Beauty Supply? We have one of those in Canada so I hope your answer is yes because I wanna try this!
ReplyDeleteK nevermind, I just re-read the beginning of your post and you clearly mention it was from Sally's BEAUTY SUPPLY. (Dummy!)
ReplyDeletewhats with you and raven looking so effing hot with funky masks on? i do not have the same success in this area. bitches.
ReplyDeletehmmmm you're gonna have to do some bargain finds here in norway (which means you're going to have to travel here...sorry just has to be done) because the things you mention just aren't available here. :( :( OR...i will need to make a list for people to send me packages of all of your crazy cheap finds!!!!!
ReplyDeletei will have to try this mask! i love their green mud mask but i haven't seen this one, i will have to pick it up sometime!
ReplyDeleteHi! I would like to open beauty salon. Does anybody have an experience in this business? There are too many options in different salon equipment. Could anybody give me an advise? What store is more reliable to buy Electroporation machine and Microcurrent machine. I'm choosing between Advance-Esthetic and SpaEquipment websites.
