Skin Food - Black Sugar Mask

Yeh! Skin Food!

Who seriously doesn't love Skin Food! I for one have a soft spot for this Korean brand. Not all of their products are the best ever, but I like what the company stands for "food for your skin".



First impressions of packaging - nice and simple. Plastic tub with a white lid. Natural looking labels which is in line with the natural feel of the brand.

Purchased from - online at www.yesstyle.com.au, you could also purchase this from any store that sells Skin Food products eg. Blush Cosmetics http://www.blushcosmetics.com.au/ (however it's probably going to cost you around AU$30).

Price - AU$15.00 for 100g.

How to use - after cleansing, rub onto your face and leave for 10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

Impressions - it smells like some kind of lemon cleaning product. It's not the greatest smell for a product that contains sugar (I thought it would smell sweet). As it's a sugar scrub it's very grainy, therefore it's a very rough scrub. If this is what you like and look for in a scrub then you'll love it. If not, then I'd stick to a scrub that contains beads of product rather than sugar granules as they aren't smooth and round. The sugar is all different shapes and sizes which creates that rough texture. I really like the way that the product melts on your face. When you've rinsed the mask off, your face is left feeling very smooth and full of moisture. It won't leave your face feeling dry at all.

How long will it last? For 100g it actually last quite a while. You would only need to do this once a week.

Would you buy this again? I'm into trying new products, so probably not. Also given the fact that it's not easily available at a good price in Australia (you have to order it online not to be ripped off). I do like it though, just not enough to buy it again.

So sad that there isn't an actual store in Australia.

Laters,
