I’ve tried many masks from this brand before and I’ve loved all of them. I usually use their wash off masks and while I don’t think they’re as effective as other brands I’ve tried, they usually leave my skin feeling/looking a little better. The first thing I notice about this mask is that it’s more of a gel.
The mask smelled like a mixture of aloe and peppermint - which is a typical tea tree oil smell but this smell was so intense my eyes started watering as I put it on. I applied a layer of the mask all over my skin and waited about 20 minutes like the package said.
This mask claims right on it that it’s for “all skin types” but I would stay away from it if you have sensitive skin. I’m on the semi-sensitive end but I haven’t ran into more than one or two products that have damaged my skin and I’ve used tea tree oil before without problems. However, this mask didn’t tingle so much as it burned like Icy Hot. I found it hard to relax, “d-stress,” or “feel fab” or say this mask is soothing.
My issue with gel/peel-off masks is that no matter how hard you try, you can never get it all to dry or peel all the way so you have to wash your face anyway. What do I do with the peel-off dried mask? Wash it down the train? I threw it in the trash but now it just creates more mess than just using a washcloth to remove a wash-off mask.
Currently (it’s been about 15 minutes since I removed the mask) my skin feels tight. I had to immediately put on moisturizer after taking this photo because my skin felt so dry (I’m dry skinned). As well, my cheeks and nose were, and still are, bright red from using the mask. I looked at my skin closely and my cheeks and nose now have little bumps on them and my nose pores actually look bigger.
Sadly, this mask did the opposite for me that the package promised and I won’t be purchasing but I still think 7th Heaven makes some great wash-off masks (the chocolate mud masque is my favorite).
Kind of random but I think they should change their packaging as well. My mask isn’t thick or green like the photo.

This makeup remover is the same product that Sephora keeps at their makeup testing stations in store and I always thought it worked great but after using it over time, I’ve come to hate it.
I needed a strong makeup remover to get rid of waterproof makeup because I was sick of scrubbing at my face for minutes to remove mascara, eyebrow makeup, and eyeliner. I can put a dab of this on a cotton swab and get rid of makeup with one swipe.
My issue is that it leaves behind an oily residue on the skin that feels gross. Even after cleaning the skin with water, the area still feels oily, greasy and I can’t put makeup over it. I’ve tried letting the area dry or drying it with a towel and the skin won’t let me reapply my makeup - I draw on my brows and I was unable to use my ABH Dipbrow, brow pencil, cream pencil, or powder after using the makeup remover. This has happened every time I use it. I don’t have an hour to wait before redrawing on part of my brow! This has happened when I attempt winged liquid eyeliner on my eyelid as well.
After using this product on my skin, the area burns and turns red if I use it multiple times in a row (ex: erasing and reapplying my eyebrows). The burning was so intense it brought tears to my eyes multiple times. It got to the point where the area, red and stinging, would have dry patches the next day and even moisturizer couldn’t cure them; I had to stop using the makeup remover.
Sephora claims this is for sensitive skin and contact wearers (which I am) but it isn’t.
Sephora claims it hydrates skin, but it left me with dry, flaky patches.
It isn’t “luxuriously comfortable,” it burns.
