Anti-Inflammatory Soluble Mask "Fresh Herbs" Alesso Professionnel Instant Face Mask

I really liked the mask, and I enjoyed the scent as well - it's fresh, interesting, and unlike any other scents. Moreover, I actually saw results - my breakouts really dried up. Now I'm debating whether to buy a larger jar or not.

The mask left me perplexed. It was labeled as "fresh herbs," but it smelled like salty pickles. And yes, it was indeed talcum powder mixed with shredded hay, just as others had mentioned. I didn't notice any anti-inflammatory effects, and it's no wonder because in order for the active ingredients from the herbs to dissolve, they need to be finely ground and steeped in hot water for at least five minutes. But it seems like the manufacturer didn't bother with that and simply chopped up the herbs as if for a salad, and the instructions... well, they just said to quickly mix it with water. Thankfully, I had a sample size, so it's a good thing I didn't waste my money on it.

The mask is just like any other mask. It contains regular clay mixed with chopped hay. It hasn't really made any improvements, but it hasn't made things worse either. You can give it a try. I had enough packs for three applications, and after using it, I applied an ampoule with glycolic acid. My skin is combination type and I'm 36 years old.

It's a bit expensive, but nevertheless, I liked the mask and will definitely order more. There is something special about this brand.
As for the comment below, it's silly to apply anything under the mask, thus changing its composition, and then complain. Although most likely, it's just an allergic reaction.

I want to warn those who are buying a face mask for home use. This mask really dries out the skin, it's unreal. It's better not to use it after facials, peels, or if you have acids in your skincare routine. Otherwise, it can take a long time to restore the skin and pimples, oily shine, and even clogged pores will seem like a nightmare. I have oily skin, a bit drier on my cheeks. I washed off the mask after about 10 minutes, suspecting something was wrong when I saw that the skin on my hands, which I used to apply the mask, became like parchment after I washed it off. I thought if this happened to my hands, what would happen to my face. The result was disastrous - the skin became so dry that my cheeks turned red, irritated, and covered with a layer of watery itchy pimples, as if my face had been sunburned. I immediately applied a cream with panthenol and a lot of moisturizing creams to my face, trying to at least slightly improve the situation. There were no crusts on my nose, but a bright network of broken capillaries appeared there. In short, products for professional use are only meant for clinics with doctors and cosmetologists! It's likely that various products/serums are used under this mask to soften the effects. I'm glad that I at least applied a hyaluronic tonic underneath, but it still didn't protect my skin.

I really liked the mask; the inflammation has almost subsided, and my skin feels soft and moisturized.

After using this face mask, my face was just wow! My pores became smaller, inflammations went away. I can't believe my own eyes that I got such an effect after just one use. I bought a 40g sample, and it's a pity that now it's only available in larger sizes. It's a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth it!
