LAKME CLEAN UP FACE MASK ~ FRESH FAIRNESS AND NOURISHING GLOW FIRST IMPRESSION


 Lakmé, India’s iconic beauty brand is about to re-invent itself. Innovating continuously and adding new products to its repertoire across cosmetics, salon services and skin care, this summer Lakmé will be seen in a whole new avatar. Designed by experts, Lakmé Clean-Up Nourishing Glow range and Fresh Fairness range  which claims ~ easy to use professional clean-up range comes with three unique new formulations:  a face wash, a scrub and a mask. Enriched with strawberry extracts, the face wash cleanses all visible dirt, the scrub exfoliates dead cells and the mask nourishes the skin. Just like a salon clean-up .

A salon clean-up ensures bright, fresh and completely transformed looking skin by removing dirt, pollutants and impurities from the epidermis. Now with the help of the new Lakmé Clean-Up Nourishing Glow and Fresh Fairness range you can get that salon-like ‘deep cleansing for soft and radiant skin. This simple regime helps you restore your skin’s glow and maintains its health.

I did no want to commit to the entire range and went ahead and bought the 99g Face masks and this is my first Impression .

LAKME CLEAN UP FACE MASK - NOURISHING GLOW with strawberry extract 

DESCRIPTION  

The power of clay & Vitamin B3 reduces pores & locks in moisture while strawberry extract pampers, smoothens & lightens your skin tone giving it a radiant glow.

Apply the mask generously all over your face and neck in a thin film. Avoid the eye contour. Allow it to dry for 5 to 7 minutes. Dab it with water to soften it and gently rinse off

My First Impression:

  • It smells like strawberries which is very mild and pleasant .
  • The texture of this product is like a clay mask which helps absorb excess oils and helps skin tightening
  • It took 15 min for my full face to be completely and rinses off pretty easy.
Pros :
  1. Leaves my skin glowing as it claims.
  2. Does not dry out my skin.
  3. The texture is very smooth ans easy to apply and remove.
  4. Tightens the pores. 
  5. Reduces black heads in one use .
Cons :
  1. Packaging is not travel friendly and the product in the opening of the tube dries out very easily.
  2.  Does not help with any skin problems.
  3. The packaging is not travel friendly.
