Nope! I did post once with me wearing a sheet...LOL! Nope! I did post once with me wearing a sheet mask, it was rubberized and looked so freaky. I think I may have since gone back and deleted the photo. I hate posting photos of my face. It takes a special circumstance or day for me to do so. I still feel weird taking selfies. I think it is my older age. <br /><br />I used the charcoal Glam Glow one! It was nice but they are so ridiculously expensive. It was a treat for sure. <br /><br />Oh no!! That is not good. I am glad you are ok though. I have a feeling I will run into something eventually that won't agree with me, especially this year as I have big plans for beaucoup sheet masks. I will take note to stay away from the Shea Moisture masks.

Haha! I love a good mask now and then and have tried a few charcol ones, although not this one. A favorite of mine is a charcol mask sample I got from Sephora called Glam Glow. Thanks for sharing!<br /><br />Oh, and reading the comments above, I thought I had very tough/non-sensitive too, until I had two bad mask experiences this year. One was something peppermint from Nügg; they were very helpful and apologetic and sent me some other masks to try for me that worked much better for me. The other was a rose mask from Shea Moisture and they had terrible customer service and I will never buy anything from them again. That mask smelled lovely but burned like hellfire and I wasn't the only one that had that experience. That product had so many bad reviews<br />After doing some research I think something in the essential oils were too concentrated and harsh for the face.Amanda C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14977811037288255876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-38421732056966123352017-01-06T20:14:22.773-05:002017-01-06T20:14:22.773-05:00You totally are... and I love it.
Oh no :-( I us...You totally are... and I love it. <br /><br />Oh no :-( I used a Glam Glow mini pot ($22?!?!?!?) and it was pretty strong. Glad it didn't bust you up too bad. But you are dead right. Those clay masks can be intense. In fact, the Indian Aztec clay I use is actually called a PULSATING facial. Doh. (insert more perv chatter here) I mix it with unfiltered apple cider vinegar and that beast makes my face throb. It turns a bit red, but then it fades after a while. I have never had any lasting rashes or adverse effects but it is a crazy experience. I can only do it once in a while. I really prefer my sheet masks. Much more calm and less messy but so hydrating. The clays are super drying. <br /><br />I concur. Be wary when playing with those clay masks if you have sensitive skin. Luckily mine is like rhino hide (luckily?).

I had a WICKED allergic reaction to a Glam Glow clay mask I bought last year. I had used it before with zero problems, but then this one time I applied it and less than two minutes later my face started BURNING. I swore I could hear sizzling and everything smelled a bit like bacon! I ran to the bathroom and threw water over my face and I was okay, but my face was super tender and sore to the touch for about the next two days, and I had really visible redness and dryness everywhere.<br /><br />Long story short? Be careful with those clay products. They can get very weird on you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
