“I used this product and didn’t realise I had to work my skin up to it as it doesn’t say this on the packaging. Which would be good because it started to feel warm on my skin. After leaving it on for about ten minutes the burning sensation subsided and then I left it on over night. My skin was a little burnt the next day.”
Hi Mikaela,
Thanks so much for your product review, I'm sorry to hear those concerns from the Hyaluronic Booster Mask. Please rest assured we are always here to help if you do ever have any queries regarding your skin or products!
The Booster Mask range contains a concentration of active ingredients, which can certainly be a little stimulating in the first few uses! Some active products contain ingredients that will stimulate the nerves in the skin which leads to flushing and tingling, especially if you have dry skin, or are prone to sensitivities.As they are quite stimulating it is best to work your way up to leaving them overnight - we appreciate your feedback and will certainly aim to have that mentioned on the packaging. In the meantime you can find information on our product page :-)
We usually find that applying a little barrier protection prior to the Mask in those first initial uses, can help to provide a 'buffer', which lessens those actives slightly, allowing the skin to build up a tolerance to those ingredients without becoming overstimulated.
I have sent you an email to follow up if you wouldn't mind keeping and eye out for it.
Kindest, Meg

“I've tried a couple of the masks and been really happy however I always come back to this one as my favourite. I definitely don't use it as often as I should but when my skin's feeling like it needs a bit of a pick-me-up I leave this one on overnight. For me, I find it leaves my face feeling so much fresher and brighter. Has also helped clear some of my breakouts. It's like a massive drink of water for your skin - LOVE IT ❤”
“I am obsessed with this product! My skin is so dry and sore in winter. It’s always been a nightmare to handle until I found this product. My skin is now hydrated and absolutely fine in winter. Thankyou semi x”
“Absolute game changer for your skin care regime! I use this product 1-3 x per week and leave it on overnight, and my skin has never felt better! I have quite dry skin prone to breakouts, and I have found this to be super hydrating and has even helped to clear my breakouts!”
