While this is great for the blog, it is not so great for my skin. In the past few weeks, I have really started to notice the effect lack of sleep is
having on my face. Dull, tired, pallid, grey, puffy – it’s not a good look. I have regularly taken to closing my eyes when I face the mirror in the mornings.
Anyway, most
days, I don’t care. I sit there tap-tapping away on my
laptop, and it doesn’t bother me. It’s one of the main advantages of working
for yourself…
But some
days, you need that something extra. That something special, a bit of TLC. The
times when you really need to look and feel great.
Ladies, this is for those moments...
Liz Earle Brightening Treatment Mask
The Liz
Earle Brightening Treatment Mask is my wonder product. It is my
super hero. In fact, I love it so much that I have never, ever shared my secret. Until now...
One quick
application of this mask, and my skin is instantly refreshed. I am radiant,
glowing (definitely not natural!) and people comment on how well I look. It is
brilliant.
Better still, it works from just 30 seconds. I simply smear it on
while I’m brushing my teeth, wait for it to work its magic and hey presto! Hello new skin. You can tell I’m
a lazy girl at heart…
Apparently, the mask contains camphor
oil and witch hazel, which stimulate and tone your skin. I am assuming this is what works to help give you a natural,
dewy looking radiance. Other naturally active ingredients include aloe vera to cool and soothe and purifying white clay. Gorgeous!
As with a lot of Liz Earle products, you are also sent a muslin cloth to take the mask off with. I love removing products with these cloths as they give you a lovely, gentle exfoliation – something which really works for my delicate skin. In fact, I now use my muslin cloths for pretty much everything.
Anyway, while the effects aren’t permanent (a slight downside), this mask makes for a truly great make-up base. It isn't one to kick back and pamper with, but it does provide super-fast results. And what girl doesn’t want that?
The Liz Earle Brightening Treatment Mask costs £13.50 for a 50ml starter kit (including muslin cloth) and is available here. Don't say I never treat you...

Warning:
Your skin may get a slight tingling sensation when you apply this. This is
completely normal, but it probably isn’t ideal for sensitive skins…
