I was given a tube of this when I was researching natural skincare products that specifically used Manuka Honey as an ingredient.
You can't beat (medical grade) Manuka Honey as a skincare ingredient, so combining this in a completely natural skincare product offers all skin types a great, healing treatment.
The only big dislike I have about this product, is that it comes in a metal tube. The tube creases up easily (really not great to travel with), which not only looks awful, it also made it difficult to get the last of the product out. This put me off quite a bit.
The mask itself is a great product. It's a pale yellow/cream colour, and has a fresh, soft scent.
My skin is quite dry/sensitive, so the nourishing properties of this mask really appeal to me. It applies more like a moisturiser, and doesn't dry out on the skin over time (although I found I needed to apply quite a generous amount initially, as it my skin did soak it up quickly).
It's really soothing and hydrating, and left my skin feeling soft, calm and refreshed. As for using it as a spot treatment, I'm not sure it gives the immediate effects that you tend to expect from such claims.
I apply a generous layer after cleansing and exfoliating, and leave it on for about 20/30 minutes before rinsing off with a warm cloth.
I would recommend this to anyone, but in particular those with dry, sensitive and/or inflamed skin. It's a lovely at-home treatment.
antipodes is a realy good brand ,natural and pure and concentrated ingredients , the price is reasonable , the effect will be garanteed at some point ,
