Freeman Feeling Beautiful - Pineapple Enzyme Facial Mask

Check out my youtube video based on the product :) https://youtu.be/xq2wSwAQlQs

This is another Freeman mask that did absolutely nothing for my skin. It smells nice, but made no positive difference to my skin apart from causing a minor breakout. Disappointed.

This mask did absolutely nothing for me, except it smelled nice, like fresh pineapple.

I bought this mask because it contains AHA, which is a chemical exfoliate (chemical exfoliation is much better for your skin than a scrub, btw). It smells quite nice and is easy to put on. I tried using it as a mask but didn't find it to be very effective so now I use weekly by massaging it into my face and then rinsing, instead of applying and waiting for it to dry. I haven't noticed *much* difference to my skin. I was under the impression AHAs promotes even skin tones, smooth complexions and skin renewal but my blackheads/comedones haven't budged and I still have some dark spots on my face. This is nice for a mild skin exfoliation.

For the price its not bad

I am loving the Freeman products, so when I went shopping the other day I decided to treat myself to a new Freeman mask. I adore the quality and especially the smell of these products, they are delicious! This enzyme mask is no different. It smells like a yummy piña colada. The scent isn't as 'strong' as some of their other products, but rather a nice subtle pineapple smell.

This is an AHA mask (Alpha Hydroxy Acids). Alpha hydroxy works by exfoliating the skin; that is, causing the surface skin cells to slough off, revealing newer, less damaged skin cells beneath. This is something that is usually done at a dermatologist using a high concentration, it's referred to as a chemical peel. This facial mask uses a lower concentration and over a longer period of time has a similar effect.

This mask is a clear gel with a gritty texture. It applies to the skin like a cooling gel and absorbs into your skin. It takes about 10-15 minutes before you feel it has dried. It's very different to a clay/mud mask as you don't experience a tight drying feeling and you don't feel this mask on your face. It has a cooling/tingling feeling, but nothing unpleasant.

Once the mask has 'dried' you wash it off and rub slightly so you also exfoliate your skin. To be honest the first time I used this I didn't feel much happening when I washed it off but the second time I used it it felt different, almost like dry skin was coming off when I was rinsing my face. Regardless, both times my face felt smooth, clean and soft afterwards. I have used this about 5 times and each time I notice an extra radiance to my skin. With repeated use this should only get better. I use it at night before bedtime and when I wake up in the morning my skin looks so youthful and plump. I love it.

I have sensitive skin and this didn't cause any irritation, redness or breakouts. I would definitely recommend this mask as it is extremely affordable for the size and for the ingredients.
