First and foremost I'd like to share why the YLLO brand is helping make a difference.
HOW YOUR PURCHASE HELPS
YLLO donates 10% of every scrub sold towards the different charities that are member partners of girlsnotbrides.org. How does this contribution help?
- Empowering girls to develop vocational training and skills that are developed in a group environment reducing vulnerability and isolation
- Targeting communities and their leaders to educate and raise awareness about the adverse effects of child marriages
- Advocating governments to change legislation in order to raise the minimum legal age to be married
- Helping activists set up youth groups to share their experiences and by exchanging dialogue with community leaders
How awesome is that? That's a cause I can get behind!! I was so excited to try this mask. I opened the package right away!
This is a "mix yourself" mask and I liked being in control of the consistency. After I mixed the powder with water, I painted it on my face with my masking brush. I didn't like the smell and if you're not a fan of curry, or curried food, I recommend you STAY AWAY from this product LOL! After a few seconds I felt a slight tingle. I don't have sensitive skin so I was surprised that my skin responded so quickly. After relaxing for 20 minutes I rinsed off the mask to reveal a rash on my face! OMG WHAT! Yup. I had a reaction to an ingredient in the mask. My fault for not doing a patch test. OOPSIES!!! Learn from my mistake and ALWAYS do a patch test when dealing with any new ingredients you aren't familiar with. I wasn't worried though. I've had rashes from masks before and they usually go away in a few hours. The next morning my rash was gone and my skin was super smooth. I was right, just a little reaction to something my skin wasn't used to. I'm pleased with the results, but not getting the rash would have made the experience more pleasant for sure!!
