Hey All,
I’m
bringing another segment of the Birchbox Series to you. It has been a while since I posted anything
regarding to these little samples, but I finally pulled myself together and
finished one. So in an October box I received the Clark’s Botanicals Intense Radiance Mask. I received enough product
to use for a full face application twice.
Clark’s Botanicals Intense Radiance Mask (October 2011) Full Size: $72.00
According to Birchbox:
“This white clay mask is formulated to purify skin and
soften fine lines and wrinkles. White genepi, an alpine plant extract, delivers
antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial properties, while algae
extract zips in moisture and helps to lift and tighten skin. Finally, an
advanced tri-peptide complex reduces redness.”
My Take:
The mask smelled quite nice, but I did not see any amazing
results. Frankly, my Queen Helene Mint
Julep Mask (drugstore large bottle at that!) leaves my skin feeling more
refreshed than this very expensive product. I did not see any purification, and
the softening of fine lines and wrinkles would probably have to come after
using this product more than twice. I did not find it tightening, or lifting or
reducing redness at all. It was just a mask, that sat on my skin, and maybe
took away some oils.
How Much Is In A Full
Sized:
$72 for 1.7 fl oz (Holy crap!?!)
Did Birchbox Make Me
Want To Buy It:
Nope. I never had heard of Clark’s so this was a first
introduction to the brand, and frankly, I don’t believe I will be purchasing a
product from the brand. It seems to be overpriced, and doesn’t do anything for
my skin type. So at least Birchbox showed me that my cheap, under 10 dollar
face mask works better than a $72 one.
Xoxo,
Emily
