PR: Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque

This is going to be a really long PR because I haven’t done one in a while so I’m just going to do a really long one now consisting of three different PRs. Actually, no I’m just going to break them up into individual ones so it’s easier to search for in the future, but I’ll continue on in each post as if it were a long post. So I won’t sign off until the last one.

First one: Mint Julep Masque

So as stated in the last post, I got this facial masque from Sally Beauty Supply. It’s the Mint Julep Masque by Queen Helene. I saw results in the first use! My skin was smoother, softer, and it helped with some of the zits that were on my face. I used it again Sunday night and it worked even better! My pores were reduced and the blackhead-like bumps around my eyes were smoothed out and are still smoothed out as I type.

The bumps around my eyes have been a problem of mine lately because I used a slightly heavy concealer around my eye area to make me look more awake, and those bumps would always become more noticeable. Thanks to this masque, the bumps hardly show up at all! And it’s only been used twice!!! That’s what I was hoping this masque would do, and it certainly delivered great results.

So, obviously I'm happy with the results. I wasn't too fond of the smell when I first opened it, but now I've come to really like it. It's sort of comforting, in a way. I don't know how often you're supposed to use this stuff, but I'm guess you wouldn't want to exceed 2-3 times a week (it doesn't give a suggestion on the packaging). You could see how your own skin reacts by using it as often as you want and then spreading out the applications if your skin starts to get dry or irritated.

Also, I've seen pictures of people's faces with the masque (for their own reviews I'm guessing) and they all seem to pile it on really thick. I only use a tiny bit of it and it's enough to cover my face and give wonderful results. I only have the 3 oz. container and I'm thinking it will last me a while (but I'm definitely buying the bigger one when I run out because I love this stuff!). The thing to take away from this PR is that a little masque goes a long way. :D

**Just a little price side note: I got this for $3.49 before tax, so it's a fairly priced item I think. I don't know how much it will be in your area though.

Sorry for the weird formatting of the paragraphs. I started this post somewhere else and emailed it to myself so when I copied and pasted it, it got weird. Things would definitely be easier if I had a mouse, but I won't get into that mess right now. :D
