I thought it might be fun to do a product review once a month, that way I have a planned post once a month and at the same time, it is not too often so that I would run out of products I could review and therefore needing to buy something just for the sake of reviewing it. So instead I will just review a product that I own and use.

This time around it is my favourite face mask the Andalou Naturals BioActive 8 Berry Fruit Enzyme Mask. I had wanted to try this mask for so long so I finally ordered it from Vitacost. As you can see from the pictures, it is almost done! That is how much I love it!

The mask is made for or Dry/Very Dry Skin which I am not sure if my skin is but I do like using products made for dry skin since I feel they are often better if you have sensitive skin. Also, it is age defying and I am all about that youthful looking skin.

The mask does tingle a bit when you use it but my skin does not look red or feel dry after using it. It simply feels clean and smooth. I leave it on for 20-30 minutes or until it is dry. The mask has a lovely berry scent that isn’t overpowering but very refreshing. What I like about the mask is how easy it is to wash it off and that it doesn’t leave any residue afterwards. My skin feels refreshed and soft.

The ingredients are good and get 1-2 at the EWG’s Skin Deep Cosmetic Database. And they are mostly organic or fair trade ingredients.

Another great thing about Andalou Naturals is that they are a cruelty-free company and are Leaping Bunny certified. I really want to try the other face masks from them, but I think I will wait for some time until I order them.
