The Secret to a Glowing Complexion

As a makeup junkie, it's important that we take care of our skin. 
Yes we might invest a lot of money into makeup products, but investing money in skincare products are equally important! All that makeup may put a toll on your skin. Thats why its important to keep your skin clean and moisturized everyday. Also, it would be extremely beneficial to let your skin breath every once in awhile.
In addition to your skincare routine, there's one product out there that is a must have for makeup addicts
One day I wandered into CVS on a search for a good face mask to add to my skin care routine (I usually get all my skincare products from there anyway). Thankfully I came across Freeman's "Feeling Beautiful Charcoal & Black Sugar Facial Polishing Mask".


This mask works WONDERS!
At first sight of the label, I was a little skeptical. I mean, charcoal? On my face? It sounded kinda toxic to me at first (lol). But the description is what really had me sold...

"Dual-action purifying mask & smoothing exfoliant. Pollution - debris - it's a wonder skin can breathe! This unique mask and scrub works double time to detox skin. First, naturally purifying activated charcoal helps absorb oil and impurities without over-drying. Then, black sugar helps exfoliate away dulling skin cells for softness and clarity. Perfect for all skin types (CVS website)." 

It was exactly what I was looking for. Even better, it was only $3.99! 
So I went home and tried it out that night. Its more like a scrub rather than a mask. The texture seems kind of rough for your skin at first, but after a few scrubs it feels so good. You can tell all the impurities are being buffed out of your skin. After that, I left it on for about seven minutes. It does feel a little tingly while you wait (or maybe I'm just paranoid, I have sensitive skin). FInally, I washed it off, patted my face dry, and Good Lawd my face felt BEAUTIFUL
I have never felt my skin so smooth and soft. It literally felt clean! 
It also LITERALLY glowed as if I never put any makeup on my skin in my whole life. Whats even better is that this glow carried on to the next morning! There was none of that "morning oil-sleepy shine" on my face (My skin type is oily). Its like giving your face a clean slate. Its like washing and waxing your car every week. I use this product at least once or twice a week. I wouldn't recommend doing it more than three times a week, only because it is a pretty rough scrub. This product is amazing. It is not just a recommendation, it is a must have! Ive never been one to put face masks into my skincare routine, but I realize that masks are important if you wear makeup at least three times a week. This mask really does buff away old makeup, oil, and dead skin that is left over on your face. It scrubs away what normal face wash doesn't. I definitely insist that you try this product. You won't be disappointed! 


Have you tried this product? What do you think of it?
