fresh - SesameUnni review for Black Tea Firming Overnight Mask

This sleeping mask uses the antioxidant and soothing powers of both black and green teas, with nourishing biotin and vitamin E as well as moisturizing shea butter and balancing ferments to leave you with soft, firm, dewy skin in the morning. I am obsessed with tea ingredients in skincare. My skin loves tea and ferments, so naturally when I discovered this product I absolutely had to try it. I was a bit worried about the undisclosed fragrance and shea butter, but purchased a sample size to see how it went. It's texture is very thick and sticky, which honestly surprised me and isn't something I'm used to, but it spreads pretty easily and once it's allowed to sit on the skin for a bit it absorbs and leaves a silky smooth finish that is comfortable to sleep with. It smells distinctly of a fresh cup of black tea, which I find very soothing. When I woke up I immediately noticed the difference. It truly left my skin very dewy and soft and smooth, and plump enough to hide the few fine lines I'm developing as I reach middle age, and still looked and felt great even after cleansing. I was still worried that with repeated use I may start to break out, but I haven't had any sort of reaction to the fragrance or shea butter. Cost: $49 CAD per 1oz, $125 CAD per 1.6oz
