Review: Amway Artistry Essentials Moisture Intense Masque: A hydrating treat for your skin!

Hello Gorgeous Ladies,

Hope you all doing great!

I go back in time and get amazed thinking about the fact that I wouldn't have even thought of splurging on cosmetics and skincare few years back and here I am today, a makeup and beauty blogger, who is always in constant search of the best makeup, skincare, haircare products and don't mind spending a fortune in return of good stuff :D Today I am reviewing one such product which did burn a hole in my pocket . Well, not really mine but my sister-in-law's (bro's wife, it is always good to specify. English is such a funny language, hehe) who gifted it to me. Although it is quite expensive, I am more than happy with the results.

Read on to find out why.


Product Description (from official website):

Skin feels buttery soft after just one application of this light, whipped soufflĂ©. It restores your skin’s moisture barrier, keeping skin hydrated throughout the day and preventing future drying. Scented with a soothing cucumber-honeysuckle fragrance that relaxes and refreshes. 

Method of Use:

Apply to cleansed face. Leave for 5-15 minutes. (I keep it on for 20 minutes) Rinse with water. Follow with toner and moisturizer. Use as needed, 1-3 times per week. 

Price: 1249 INR for 100 ml.

Shelf Life: 3 years.

Packaging: Comes in a opaque tube. I love the lavender pink color of the tube. It is so cute and girly. The nozzle is tiny which helps in squeezing the right amount of product out.

My Experience with Amway Artistry Essentials Moisture Intense Masque:

The mask is very creamy and white in color. It smells heavenly and the aroma lingers on for a considerable amount of time post application as well. I love the smell!! The mask has medium thick consistency and buttery soft texture which makes it easy to spread on the skin. This does not dry out unlike other masks or face packs. It settles onto the skin in the form of a sticky gel after keeping it on for more than 15 minutes. I keep it on for 20 minutes and use it once every 15 days because I have oily skin. For dry/normal skinned beauties this can work wonders if used once or twice a week. It is very easy to remove. I wash off my face with luke warm water post application and pat dry. Once it is removed, it gives an amazing radiance to my face as if I have just had a nice facial. It cleans off all the impurities and makes skin very smooth, soft and supple. It keeps my skin hydrated and healthy looking for almost a week post usage. I love the results it gives. It is like a mini facial for me. I had used this mask on my cousin's wedding day. You can check out my FOTD here. I think it is totally worth every penny spent because it does what it claims and gives amazing results. I love the glow it gives and makes my skin look squeaky clean and smooth.



Pros:

  • Easy to apply and easy to remove.
  • Did not break me out although I have oily/combination skin and it is hydrating mask.
  • A single tube will last long (roughly 3 months if used once a week).
  • Smells awesome!
  • Lightens pigmentation and dark spots over time with continuous usage.
  • Imparts a healthy glow to the face and deep cleans pores.
  • Keeps skin hydrated and healthy looking for a week. The effect does not fade in a day unlike some other hydrating treatments.
  • Makes skin very soft, smooth and supple. Gives a noticeable radiance to the face.
The list is endless because this surely is a wonder product for me. :)

Cons:

  • Contains parabens.
  • Price might be a con for few but for me it is totally worth every penny you spend as it works wonders for my skin.
Would I recommend this product?

Definitely!! Dry/Normal skinned people will definitely love it more but it works great on oily/combination skin too.

Would I repurchase this product?

Yes!! I love it! Infact I am planning to buy one as a backup to be used as soon as the current one finishes off :D

My Rating: 4.9/5 :-*:-*:-*:-*

All in all this is really a good hydrating treatment for your skin especially when you don't have the time to go to a salon for facial. This will instantly brighten up dull skin and give you a perfect flawless radiant glow.
