Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask

This is a lovely, gentle and hydrating mask. It is a thick, cream-coloured cream that applies smoothly and doesn't dry and feel tight or itchy on the skin. It leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated but it doesn't seem to make a difference as a spot treatment (which is a suggested alternative use).

I got this face mask as a treat with some Airpoints dollars that hubby had collected. I'm glad I did because it is lovely. I use this once a week and apply a generous amount with a brush. I don't wet my face first. I leave it on for 10-15 mins and when I wash it off my skin is visibly moisturised and looks great. This mask smells great and has a lovely thick creme texture to it. It doesn't dry out so isn't uncomfortable after being left on for a while. I was surprised when I got it how big the tube was and it's lasted me for ages using it once a week. I will be repurchasing this when I run out that's for sure!

I have a tube of this lovely face mask, it's in a easy to use tube just squirt a bit out, quite hygienic to use as no sticking your fingers in it. It says it contains 100% avocado oil and pohutukawa bloom so it's loaded with antioxidants. I can smell the vanilla and honey (yum) quite a heavenly smell. It's a beautiful cream that is easy to apply to your face and neck. It's not greasy and it's a light cream that's quite soft to apply. I do put a reasonable amount on as my skin does soak it in quite a bit. So on the down side of that a tube doesn't last me long. It's not a mask that dries and tightens, it stays quite moist so it's quite pleasurable to leave on, no feeling uncomfortable and trying to wash it off in a hurry. It says it's the ultimate solution for spots and blemishes, in that department I haven't noticed anything, I have stuck some on the occasional spot but nothing overly noticeable happened, no amazing vanishing. But it's a delightful indulgence in a very moisturising face mask. It's lovely but I find it quite pricey as it doesn't go far.
