Review: Freeman Feeling Beautiful

Recently, I bought 7 different Freeman Feeling Beautiful masks and I have to say, the results are splendid! I purchased them all at my local Wal-Mart at $2.77 before tax (I bought a few of the collection at $3.77 before it sells at $2.77). Each bottle has 150ml (or 6 fl. oz.) As of now, I have the following:



1) Facial Clay Mask: Chocolate & Strawberry
This clay mask deeply cleanses your pores, reduces the appearance of large pores, and gives you a moistured face. The aroma of the clay mask is, I would say, too sweet. As much as I love to eat sweet stuffs, this one is just too much! However, it does provide me a clean and fine face. This one is perfect for those who have normal and dry skin. I like to use it on my cheeks only, or where it tends to be dry.

2) Facial Clay Mask: Avocado & Oatmeal
The Avocado & Oatmeal clay mask removes oil and dirt, and it makes your skin clean and soft. Personally, this one is one of my favourite among the ones I have because I can clearly see that the mask reduced the size of my pores and my face didn't feel stretched like other masks that I've used. Also, the scent is magnificent for those who love avocado. I like to apply it on my forehead, nose and chin or any oily areas of your face. I highly recommend this mask!

3) Facial Clay Mask: Mint & Lemon
Just like the Chocolate & Strawberry one, this mask deeply cleanses your pores. It moderates the oil production of your face and reduces large pores. It has a light scent of lemon and mint. I usually apply it on my t-zone, or even sometimes on my nose because of my combination skin. It has the exact same effects as the Chocolate & Strawberry one, except that this one would be favored by people who have oily skin.

4) Facial Anti-Stress Mask: Dead Sea Minerals
Another one of my favorite, this anti-stress mask purifies and clears pores. The clay mask smells like if you are in the sea, which I LOVE! I can see a whitening effect  after using the mask. I love how the color of the mask is an "electric" blue-like. My pores definitely feel cleaner after using it. The only problem I experienced was that the mask stained a bit my hands. Except for that minor problem, I absolutely recommend this one for everyone!

5) Facial Peel-Off Mask: Cucumber
This mask removes dead skin and impurities while it smoothes the face. The texture of this mask is like a gel, so you have to be careful when applying it on your face. Make sure to apply it evenly or else the mask will not dry, or you will spend a lot of time removing it! It is said that people who have normal or combination skin are recommended to use this mask. Since the mask is too sticky, I suggest using plastic gloves or anything to protect your hands from getting messy from the mask. The only result I had from using it was a clean face, nothing else. Not recommended for the effects it stated to give, but it's definitely fun to remove!

6) Facial Enzyme Mask: Pineapple
This mask claims to restore radiant skin, but personally I do not think so. I love how the mask has a gel-liquid like consistency and it smells like a real pineapple. I was expecting a lot from it since it would be good for my combination-skin face. Unfortunately, the mask did not give me the "radiant" look it described on the bottle. It did give me a clean face, but this mask is a no-no for Ro. :(

7) Body Sugar Scrub: Pomegranate
This body scrub exfoliates your skin to create a healthy and soft body. It has a pomegranate scent and yet the scent is not too strong that makes me feel uncomfortable. I also love the texture, which feels like real sugar! It is important not to rub too hard on your body or else your body will feel too dry (just like when you scrub your face, scrub it slowly!) I use this body scrub for about 2 to 3 times per week. The body scrub does make my body feel softer, especially on my feet and arms.

It is important to have a clean face before using the masks. All of them are made with natural ingredients and have decent results. I mostly use the masks at night because it gives me a fresh skin, but make sure to use a toner and a moisturizer after using it!

Considering the price and the quality of the masks, I would have to say that this collection is good for those who cannot afford high end brands skin care.

Ro

We are back!

How long has it been since our last post...? We are TERRIBLY sorry for not keeping up with the blog! Since Cat & Mi have summer school, and Ro is not good at organizing his schedule (and was busy with his house renovations), it is hard for us 3 to meet up and write blogs.

No worries, since Ro is now back to the internet world, this blog will be up-to-date (Hope so!).

Until then, tataaa!~
