Instant Revitalizing Mask from the Radical Skincare.
My skin has always been moody. One week it will look completely clear, and then the next week I’ll be battling it out with pimples that appeared out of no where! So when I had the chance to give the Instant Revitalizing Mask from the Radical Skincare line a try, I was all for it!
The Instant Revitalizing Mask is one of those products where you better follow the directions! The box says that it should be applied to clean, dry skin and let me tell you, this is important!
Other than that, the mask is very easy to apply. It goes on smoothly and has a lovely lemon scent.
You’re supposed to leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes. During this time, the mask foams up and tiny bubbles pop on your face. Sounds strange, but it actually feels pretty cool. Tickles just a bit. Once the minutes are up, a quick rinse is all that’s needed.
Word to the wise: Like any mask you might apply to your face, you should probably do this one in the privacy of a locked bathroom. My 2-year-old was a little startled when he saw what was on my face.
What I liked about the Instant Revitalizing Mask:
- It smelled nice.
- It was really easy to apply.
- It actually felt like it was doing something to my skin.
- My skin felt really smooth after the mask was rinsed off.
What I didn’t like about the Instant Revitalizing Mask:
- If you touch the bubbles, they disappear. You have to apply the mask quickly and don’t touch your face!
- Besides for the initial smoothness after rinsing, I haven’t noticed any other changes to my skin.
This is one of those products where I’ll have to keep testing it out. I’ve only been using it for over a week, and skin care products should really be tried for at least 4 weeks before any true judgement can be made.
I’ll have to keep you posted, but for now, I’m excited with what I’ve experienced so far.
This product was sent to me for review purposes only. All sassy opinions are my own.

I am always a huge fan of trying masks because compared to investing big $$$ into an entire skincare line one product is always worth a shot!
I liked your honest review..I can appreciate the honesty in your post!
If I end up not liking a product I buy and can’t return it ends up being swapped out within my GF’S sort of like a free-cyle exchange!
April Giannosa says
Swapping with girlfriends if a product doesn’t work for you is such a good idea! I usually send things that I didn’t like to my sisters.
