Facial exfoliant Bark Cream-mask with fruit acids - reviews
How tired I am of all this! I am one of those people for whom nothing ever helps! I ordered the cream mask from an online store, since I couldn’t find it in any pharmacy. There were such hopes, so I believed all the laudatory reviews, I counted the days until the delivery. When the mask finally arrived, I didn’t wait a minute, I went to make it, studying the instructions along the way. I read that some had some kind of insert in the box, but mine was defective - a mask and packaging.
I am sure that it is the original, I checked it by the barcode, by the batch number and by the appearance of the packaging, consistency and color. Despite the authenticity, the box was painted with typos, I became interested and looked at the photos of other girls and discovered the same “jamb.” I don’t care about that, we’ll forgive the Russian manufacturer. There was also no protective membrane inside the jar, but the main lid is of good quality and screws on tightly. Photo of typos is attached:
The smell of the mask is specific, I didn’t find anything similar to acidic, rather, it’s just strange, unusual. Tolerable, of course, I didn’t observe any vomiting. The consistency is white, very thick and greasy, it will not spill out of the package even if you turn it over, see photo below. The mask spreads over the face just perfectly! It glides on and doesn’t dry out for about 15 minutes, a minimum amount of content is needed at one time, the mask has hardly worn off, I’ve already done more than 10 procedures. I collected the required amount with a cotton swab so as not to introduce bacteria with my fingers, but spread it over the skin with my hands. It washes off better from the fingers than from the face, without any problems at all.
Now I’ll tell you about the most important thing, the action of the cream mask and the results of its work. What did we dream of getting there? Well, what did the manufacturer promise?
- Exfoliates dead cells, accelerating the process of skin renewal, smoothes wrinkles and scars, promotes deep hydration, improves skin tone, restores softness and elasticity to the skin.
?
The first time I used the Bark cream mask for 10 minutes, it did not cause any unpleasant sensations, it did not dry out quickly, but at the same time it remained greasy. It’s not easy to wash it off, but on the contrary, I liked the effect of washing it off at the end of the mask with such acidic water. I didn’t feel any exfoliation either the first time or the tenth. Moisturizing, by the way, too. The skin was the same as after the cleansing foam. Softness and freshness are the only positive aspects that I noticed, but, again, the freshness and cleansing gel, you know, is enough for me. The same.
This is what it looks like on the face, in a thin layer:
- To achieve stable results, the mask must be used once a week for a course of at least 20 procedures. Apply a thin layer to clean skin of the face, neck, and décolleté, leaving the eye and lip area exposed. Wash off the mask after 5-10 minutes with warm water. The exposure time of the mask can be reduced or increased depending on the sensations that arise during the procedure. It should be noted that the strength of the mask’s effect on the skin depends on the exposure time. Pay attention to possible skin reactions when you first use the mask: redness and tingling. If the burning sensation becomes very strong, you need to wash off the mask and apply moisturizing cream to the skin first, and then hypoallergenic restoring cream. Sometimes a burning sensation occurs in the first minutes of the procedure, then decreases or disappears completely. Redness of the skin after the procedure may persist for some time, so it is most convenient to apply the mask in the evening before the weekend. In some cases, after the first sessions of applying the mask, a feeling of dry skin may appear, which is completely relieved if after the procedure you apply a moisturizing Cream Mask or Hypoallergenic Restoring Cream to your face. Active peeling may appear only after the third or fourth procedure. People who have never used cosmetic products with fruit acids may develop small pimples after the first procedures. This is a favorable sign showing that the skin is recovering. It is recommended to carry out a course of procedures during the cold season. And before going out into the active sun, protect your face with sunscreen with a protection factor of at least 15. Contraindications for facial peeling using glycolic acid: herpetic rashes, acute eczema, dermatitis.
According to the manufacturer's recommendation, I did it twice a week, exactly the first two times. After seeing absolutely no results twice, I decided to take a risk and applied the mask every day for the next 5 times, but not for 20-30 minutes, as many nervous people like me did, but on average 10-15. The tingling sensation was insignificant, regardless of whether the skin was steamed or simply well cleansed. I tolerated the mask process well. The redness lasted only for 20 minutes after use, then the skin of the face returned to its normal state. In the end, this outcome of events simply pissed me off, what is this? The bark cost me more with delivery than the price for two jars, and still no results!? One day, after a mask, I decided to remove all the blackheads that remained in place the old-fashioned way with a scrub. And, oh horror! I rubbed my nose all the way to the meat! I woke up when I saw blood on my fingers! I don’t understand where I was looking, at the ceiling or something, I was dreaming again! Never in my life has a scrub rubbed my skin until it bled! The question arose: did I do something wrong, or did the cream mask thin the skin? Maybe acids work sooooo softly and imperceptibly, by the way, where are they in the composition anyway?
The story with the nose ended with long-healing scabs and my husband’s words when he saw me: what have you done again? Naturally, during the healing of the nose there was no talk of acids; I continued the course of the cream mask 4 days later. As I already mentioned, I did it more than 10 times, I lost count, now I continue to use it 2-3 times a week for 15 minutes. Where to put so much leftover mask? There are no results, the skin is not smoother, the pores have not narrowed, blackheads have appeared again after cleansing with a scrub. I didn’t have any inflammations except for comedones, and there were no more inflammations either. The texture of the facial skin has not changed, the color is the same. The acne is still there and has not lightened. My first expression lines did not smooth out. There is a small wrinkle on my forehead, because I wrinkle my forehead when I apply mascara to my eyes, so here it is. I looked at the expiration date of the mask and it is fine.
I'll say that I recommend it, it helps most people with a bang. In general, you know what I noticed: Facial Exfoliant Bark Cream Mask with fruit acids either helps a lot and becomes a must-have, or doesn’t help at all. Well, it looks like I’m the kind of person who doesn’t care about anything, just like smearing the Terminator. And a mask cannot work on absolutely everyone. When the whole jar is finished, I will update the review. If, by an incredible miracle, Cora begins to act and work, the first thing I will do is edit what I have written so as not to offend the manufacturer and not to differ from the number of enthusiasts. You can minus as much as you want, everything is fine. Here everyone writes their opinion, based on their own experience, no matter how praised the product is. If Cora is sold in pharmacies in your city, you can try it, but ordering it on the Internet at exorbitant prices is not profitable, right? Especially when you are waiting and hoping for a miracle effect.
Thanks to everyone who read. If this cream mask helped you, then I am sincerely happy for you! I wish all girls and women to achieve beautiful skin!
______________________________________________________________________________________
Good day to all! I want to update my review after 4 months of using the mask.
At the moment, my jar of fruit acids is almost empty, the maximum contents are left for one or two, but I’m throwing it away.
It feels like an eternity has passed since I bought the mask. But, despite ITS COMPLETE USELESS, I decided to honestly use it, using it once a week for 40 minutes!
I did this just for the sake of experimentation, because I still couldn’t believe that a mask with fruit acids was so ineffective. To be honest, the results not only did not please me, they disappointed me more and more!
I always did the mask in the evening, and in the morning I observed a not entirely pleasant picture: my skin became an incredibly vile, gray-green-white color! At first, I couldn’t understand what kind of bullshit this was!? The complexion was simply terrible! He recovered in two days and became normal and normal. As soon as I used the mask again, everything repeated itself. I will not order it again or apply it to my skin. The mask did not get rid of acne, enlarged pores, blackheads!
By the way, it cured acne and problem skin! I wrote a separate review about what exactly I did, you can see it here.
Now, after the unsuccessful experience of using Cora, I do not recommend a mask with fruit acids! Most likely, it only helps a certain skin type.
