I recently acquired a travel size of the infamous Glam Glow mask. I've had some time to try it out, but instead of the traditional review, I thought I would compare the Glam Glow to two other similar masks: The Mint Julep Mask and the Lush Mask of Magnaminty.
Because that's what I'm here for, spending the money so you don't have to.
Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque: I'm tempted to call this one my favorite just because it's so cheap and easy to get a hold of. I found mine for $4 at Walgreens. This mask is pretty standard; green, tingly, and super clarifying. You know, the stuff that sleepovers are made of. It's not the most amazing mask in the world, but it's really effective for the price.
Lush Mask of Magnaminty: I already have a full review of this product that you can check out here. But I'll recap. I love this mask. Like, I really love it. It tackles my oily skin and blemishes without over drying. It also does a great job tightening my pores and helps with blackheads. You can find it in stores or online for $12.95. Not a terrible price, but not inexpensive either considering you only get 4.4 ounces.
Glam Glow Mask: I've only had this product for about a week and a half, but I'm really liking it so far. I'm just using it on my nose and chin since those are my problem areas right now, and I can already tell a difference. My pores are smaller and I have significantly less blackheads. However, it stings...a lot. It doesn't last very long, but it sure is uncomfortable to wait for this baby to dry. It's also expensive, $20 for half an ounce. Yes, you heard me right. Is it a great mask? Yes. Is it worth the price? Probably not.
If I had to pick just one of these masks, it would probably be Lush. Not too expensive, and very very effective.
So there you have it, y'all! What are some other masks I have to try?
xoxo,
Caitlin
