If this is anything other than your first time visiting my blog, you’ll probably know that I’m a bit of a mask fan and I always believe that one of the best mask treatments you can include to your routine is an acid mask, because they do so much in not enough time, that even the beauty-weary would be able to find a couple of minutes to indulge. I've my firm favourites with regards to acid masks as I like one that’ll do all the good stuff you should expect from an acid-based product with no dryness or sensitivity. The Ecooking Peeling Mask does exactly that.
There’s a lot to love about the Ecooking Peeling Mask; firstly, it’s filled with natural and organic ingredients so there’s no sickly fragrance or unnecessary colour, but what you do get is a concoction of some of my all-time favourite acids (Lactic, Salicylic and Glycolic) housed in a serum-like liquid that also contains Vitamin E and Squalane. You use it by making use of a thin layer and leaving it on for 4-6 minutes, although I went for 10 last night and didn’t have any issues. Some people have reportedly gone quite (temporarily) red after by using this, but I didn’t have an issues, not really when I (probably unwisely!) used this a few days after a hardcore Dermastamping treatment. I really like the fact that the key chemical exfoliants include both Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids, because this really feels like a product that cleans your pores whilst whipping away any superficial dry skin or flakes, and you really do notice the difference straight after use, as not only does skin feel smoother and softer to the touch, it really looks it too. I needed to come off all my main skincare now for the aforementioned treatment and my skin quickly became dull and flaky – from the combination of the lack of good skincare and the treatment itself – but the Ecooking Peeling Mask handled that in a single use, that is probably why it’s developed this type of cult following already. Find it on Cult Beauty here – – where it’s lb37 for 50ml. You'll need a tiny amount each time therefore the tub will last a good while.
