Bee Venom Face Mask
Nothing good to say.
It stings so so bad, it's unbearable. I tried to use less and for less time but it absolutely burns the skin. Leaves me red and irritated after use, I can't even wash my face with water without it hurting me.
Hated it.

One more thing I forgot, too! lol..... The fact that it causes pain IS actuary good to a mild extent at least, just because it's the fact that it's tricking your skin into thinking there's damage that needs reparation that triggers the increase in collagen production!

Honestly, I'm not even gonna lie....The stinging kinda killed me too.... lol.... especially where, even though my skin isn't really EVER even the slightest bit sensitive to really anything, I use a lot of actives, which don't bother my skin at all, but using this after definitely burns like crazy!
The reason I still gave it a really good rating though, was just because, instead of leaving it on for the recommended amount of time, I would basically just leave it on my skin for as long as I could stand it for and then, after I'd rinse it off, my skin was super smooth, no pores, glowing complexion, etc! I mean, it was definitely always pretty red immediately after, but after the redness would fade, my skin would always look great!
Also, for anyone who really just can't stand using it as a mask at all, you can also mix a little bit with your moisturizer instead! It doesn't need to be washed off or anything when your not applying it straight, like a mask.
Also, normally when skin care products burn it's because of the whatever actives are in the product..... so it's normality not good to just let your skin suffer because, if the actives are too strong, you'll just end up damaging your skin. However, with this stuff, since it doesn't have any actives, like AHAs or retinoids or anything, it's just the venom causing the stinging..... Which obviously, it's not good to overdue it and force yourself through the pain, but it's not stripping your skins barrier to pieces like acids and actives would do.....
( full disclaimer though: that last part's really just a theory of mine.... lol.... I could be wrong but it seems to make sense to me based on my own experience with this stuff)
