Skin Free Review and Giveaway

I hope the picture below didn't scare you! I've been wanting to try out a face mask for a while, so when Skin Free gave me the opportunity to try some products, I chose the Green Clay Mask for Blemish Prone Skin (seen below); the Spa Scrub Power Pak; and the Niaouli Butter Stick™.

I liked the mask. (One warning: be sure to close your mouth before it starts to dry! My mouth got really dry because I couldn't close it until I washed it off!) The mask has some very strong scents that were a bit overpowering at first, but I quickly adjusted. The mask washed off easily and my face did feel softer.

I asked for the Spa Scrub Power Pak because my heels are so rough. I did notice a difference after using the sugar scrub. I would have really enjoyed it if I had someone use the scrub on me (ala manicure!).

I didn't like the Niaouli Butter Stick as much. It was recommended for my cracked heels. On my heels, it felt kind of odd, and I stuck to the floor. I it might worked better if I had put socks on. The stick smelled good. It looks like a giant tube of chap stick (and kind of felt like it too).
