TL;DR:
- What it is: An antioxidant-packed face mask
- What it does: Deep-cleans and brightens skin with five different berries and kaolin clay
- Who it’s for: Anyone looking for a quick glow with little to no effort
Although I know most of us would like to forget 2020 (and maybe 2021 and 2022, too), there was some good that came from our time spent in quarantine. Not only did I catch up on my reading list, FaceTime my family more than ever, but I also picked up (and then promptly quit) a few new hobbies. DIY beauty was one of them.
In the name of budgeting and a little bit of experimentation, I slathered on a few too many face masks made from ingredients found in the bottom of my refrigerator in an effort to give my sad, dull skin a glow. Did it work? Maybe? But after a handful of homemade mixes, I got the ick. Since then, I’ve fully moved on from the DIY world and am back in the land of lab-tested ingredients (I love it here!), which means the only things being slathered on my face are in final packaging and have ingredient labels.
One of the most recent treatments I’ve tried (and very much enjoyed) is the Aceology Here We Glow Berry Mask. The creamy yogurt look-alike may not be edible, but it certainly offers impressive antioxidant perks, just like the juicy fruits.
It’s made with kaolin to deep-clean and five different berries to fight free-radical damage (wrinkles, dark spots), so on days when my skin is looking a little lackluster, this is what I reach for.
Here’s how I use it: After cleansing my skin, I gently slather on a dime- to nickel-sized dollop from my forehead to my chin. Then I grab a spot on my couch, turn on Heated Rivalry (yes, I’m still obsessed months later), and wait for my new, dewy glow to kick in.
The Aceology Here We Glow Berry Mask was in the June Allure Beauty Box.
