So as above, what’s yours then? I just used Glamglow Flashmud Brightening Treatment and it’s amazing and I can definitley see a difference, it was £16.50 for 15g and it was well worth it, now that I’ve tried and liked it, I’m going to buy the bigger jar.

Brightening face masks are my favourite and Soap & Glory’s one is also excellent.

I’m looking to try new ones so would like some suggestions pleaseSmile

Best one I’ve tried is REN Glycolic Radiance Renewal mask, it’s absolutely superb! I’m also looking for something to replace the good old Clarins Pure & Radiant if anyone has any suggestions please? Thanks

And it’s a great price. Also vitamin c cream from the same brand.

I love Cult Beauty @Flexidev17, I got my Glamglow mask from a website called Look Fantastic, it’s bloody amazing and has a lot of different brands.

@Fullfatlatte I must give that REN product a try asap. Glamglow has all different types of masks so I think you should have a look at their stuff, I bought from Lookfantastic.com which is an amazingGrin

The Ordinary do an AHA/BHA peel mask. Looks like blood but is amazing! Tingles when on but my skin looks so much brighter after. Patch test first and build up to the full 10 minutes.

Aldi do a glamglow copy and i think it’s just as good - it’s in very similar packaging

MinniesMum1606 · 12/02/2019 18:48

@MooMinCow I must try The Ordinarys masks, what does AHA & BHA mean? There’s nothing better than seeing a face post mask, with that bright glow about itGrin

@DuvetDweller copies of high end products are the 2 extremes of amazing or totally shit, Aldi does get a lot of recognition for nice skin products, I’ve heard a few people raving about numerous Aldi products that they’ve loved.

Yes Aldi Beauty Flash Balm Clarins duoe is better than Claruns IMHO!

MinniesMum1606 · 12/02/2019 19:52

I feel like with some beauty products, and infact with lots and lots of things, then you really do get exactly what you paid for, I’m happy to splurge on facial masks, and most skincare items actually, because I believe that the £45 ones will work more than the £4.50 one! Aside from Aldi then how many more high street brands are as good, or better, than their high end competitors at skincare, I would guess not too many. Avon is another brand that gets rave reviews, I’ve never tried it myself though, anyone else?

info here. It’s basically a mild acid peel treatment. AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) remove dead skin and BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid) are good for unclogging pores and congestion. So the mask exfoliates and deep cleanses at the same time but without clay. You must use SPF during the day when using these type of acids.

Thanks @MooMinCow

Charlotte Tilbury goddess clay mask

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 16/02/2019 09:26

I have the Aldi one , pretty good IMO

I bought the Revolution Glycolic Peel , probably not to be used at the same time , my skin might revolt . Only used it once so far , not a mask though.

Dd has the Aldi Pink Clay one which she likes (with a nifty little brush to apply

MinniesMum1606 · 17/02/2019 16:54

I am dying to try Charlotte Tilburry anything in all honesty, her stuff looks amazing.
