Aloette's Warming Pumpkin Energizing Masque: Great Product and Gift Idea

I am not a big masque person. I'm really, really not. It's hard for me to sit still long enough to let a masque work its magic on my skin, and I'm usually left with a half-done job. (Hey, I'm an impatient person. I fully admit that.) If my skin breaks out enough, I'll do a masque to help fix things a bit. (The Aloette Mud Masque is excellent for flare ups, by the way...) I don't ever do my own masque just for the sheer pleasure of it.

That is, until I discovered Aloette's Warming Pumpkin Energizing Masque. Oh my goodness. You just feel like you're in heaven in your own bathroom. I kid you not.

Applying the masque is simple. Just wash your face, pat dry, then massage a good amount of the masque onto your face, avoiding the eye area. What I do is put about a quarter-sized dollup in my hand, then spread it on my face with my fingers. This masque feels gummy, sticky and very thick. There are also little grainy bits, called macrospheres, in the masque. Those come into play a little bit later.

As you massage the masque in, you will feel a warming sensation immediately. I didn't really believe it until I tried. Seriously, the masque heats up as you massage it into your face. And it is DIVINE!!! Never before have I felt something so comforting and soothing. And it smells awesome.

After massaging for a little while, the macrospheres will break and release Vitamin E directly into your skin. Of course, Vitamin E is fantastic for your skin. It gives it moisture while renewing and rejuvenating the first three layers of your skin. Plus, the macrospheres act as an exfoliant until they break!

But That's Not All!

As soon as the warming sensation decreases, you wet your hands, then continue massaging the masque into your face. Guess what! The warming will reactivate, bringing you into second warming phase of the masque. This allows for maximum penetration of Vitamin E into your skin. The Vitamin E is carried into your bloodstream through your skin cells, which allows for a longer-lasting effect.

Then you just continue massaging until the warming sensation is gone. Afterwards, you just rinse your face thoroughly and pat dry. Follow with your regular toning and moisturizing regimen.

You will see and feel results immediately with Warming Pumpkin Energizing Masque. You skin feels so smooth, and you're just positively glowing. Your face feels warm, fresh and clean. It is recommended that you use this product once a week, but it is tempting to use it way more than that.
