The concept seems fun to play with, but this reminds me why I haven't favored peel-off masks in the past. Even though it's a fun color (jet black), it reminds me of when we were kids and how we used to put Elmer's glue on the back of our hands (you know you did that)--except it was FUN to peel off the dried glue in the end. This becomes very tacky very quickly, so you have to get in onto your face and spread it quickly. Wait about 15-20 minutes until it dries, depending on how thick or thin you put it on. Make sure you have washed your face beforehand. Here's the BIGGEST tip, you have to put on a thick layer in order to ensure the easiest way possible of peeling it off once it dries. I learned that the hard way and it took me AGES to peel off tiny bit by bit until I tried again with a thicker layer. It kind of helps to smile or scrunch up your face to peel this off, it makes it much easier. As instructed, make sure you put this on below your orbital bone as it can become quite inconvenient and tender to pick it off with your nail within this area. Also, make sure you follow the instructions and avoid putting it over ANY hair, as this can peel out hair kind of like a mini-wax. So ladies and gentlemen, I CANNOT stress how important it is to make sure that you do not put this near your eyebrows. The decent thing about this mask is that any leftover traces can be washed off with warm water (kind of defeats the purpose of a peel-off mask when it's easier to just wash your face). You may or may not need to exfoliate after using this to make sure you get all the product residue off your skin. Normally I've enjoyed Boscia products but I wasn't a huge fan of this. I've very lucky that I received a large deluxe sample from Sephora because I would not bother spending my money on this. Yes, it does make your skin luminize after using it, but so does a good exfoliation. I'm perfectly happy spending $4 on a facial mask that I can simply wash off, but has always been tried-and-true for me with good results. So honestly, this product isn't for everyone, so you might like it more than I did. — 8 months, 1 week ago

This product brought me back to junior high when I used to use Freeman's peel off masks. I always got more joy from using those than I did with the wash away masks. It was interesting putting this on because of the black color. It looked so different than anything I had used before. Once it dried I peeled it off and was able to get most of it off unless I didn't make a thick enough layer. It left my face feeling soft and fresh. The price was worth it because of the fun factor of peeling it off at least for me. — 1 month, 4 weeks ago

Amazing! Great Results!

After using this mask one time, you will see results! It really does what it promises. My pores were clear, my face looked more fresh and luminous, soft, clean and smooth! You do need a lot of product to cover your face because it says to apply a thick layer, but its not too messy. Its black so you can easily see where your putting the product. And the best part, is that if you get it in places you didnt intend, it just washes right off, no hassle. However, it does sting a bit when you start peeling it off, almost like peeling off a bandaid, so just be careful. The price is $34, which is a bit high for 2.8oz but for one, its all natural, and two it delivers results! — 1 year, 1 month ago
