Origins Original Skin Retexturizing Mask Review!!

So a few months ago when I was ordering my stuff at Sephora, something caught my eye in the sample section where you use the codes and get a deluxe size sample product. Well I was pretty excited about this product. It sounded so heavenly! That I needed to give it try so if it was really what it claims to be, I’d happily spend my money on the full size product! I’d been very excited for this Mask!  
                                        
As we all know, Origins has released a new mask few months back. The Origins Original Retexturizing Mask with Mediterranean Rose Clay, Canadian Willow-herb, Persian Silk Tree and Jojoba Beads!  Sounds luxurious doesn’t it??

Before we get further in more details , lets discuss what the ingredients do?
1: Mediterranean Rose Clay gets deep into the skin and unclogs the pores, which means all the impurities will be drawn out of the skin and also it removes the excess oil from your skin. It’s going to deep cleanse your skin.
2: Canadian Willow-herb is very famous for making the skin glow and restore the skin and get rid of dullness.
3: Persian Silk Tree is used by the Chinese for medicinal purposes as an anti-irritant and also it helps your skin deal with stress. Yup! You got it hormones or Exams. It will probably deal with it all!!! How amazing is that!!
4: Jojoba Beads, last but not least are the probably the most common ingredient. We’ve heard about it many times too!! It’s used for exfoliating. That may seem like a simple job for the jojoba beads but its not because that’s actually what’s going to make this mask work.

This mask is a pretty pink color, smells Amaaazing and has weird texture, it’s also a 2 in 1 product! 




Now this mask retails for $25, and it says that it purifies the skin and deep cleans the skin and it also exfoliates and refines the skin’s texture. Mouthful isn’t it??

So I gave it try and I have to say I love it! I used this on myself and my mom also gave it a go and she loved it too. It’s very easy and quick. All you do is put it on clean face and leave it for 10mins to dry. Once the mask is dry, you wet your fingers and start rubbing it on your skin, that’s whats going to make jojoba beads active for exfoliation. You exfoliate for however long you want and just wash it off! That’s it!
                                                

Now this is what I noticed, my skin did not turn red at all! It was very calm and gentle. It deep cleansed my skin and my skin was glowy and radiant and smooth too!!! I love this! I’m glad I got it and I’m definitely repurchasing it! Its great for sensitive skin! YAAASSSS!! J definitely try it and tell me what you guys think about it!
