Montagne Jeunesse Manuka Honey Peel Off Mask REVIEW

(I received this product from Influenster to review but all opinions are my own) I did a brief review on this product in my Refresh Vox Box review but today I'm going to go more in depth.

This product was my favorite out of the box of goodies! I still have probably two uses of it left because I use a minimal amount.

This is what the product looks like. You can get it on Ulta's website for $1.99, and you should be able to get it at Walmart's (on the info card it says they can be bought there but I haven't personally looked for it). 
I have oily, acne prone skin. I use this mask once a week. It really moisturizes my skin (which is just what I need this winter months) and it also helps with my acne! Now I have quite a bit of acne that I go to a dermatologist to help treat so it doesn't magically clear up all my breakouts. It helps reduce the redness and size of my breakouts immediately after use. I did some research on honey masks and they are suppose to be antibacterial so that explained it. 
I really recommend this mask. They're perfect for a spa day. I can't wait to try more things from this brand. I also got my little sister to try the mask and she really liked it. So it's good for all ages. (Spa day for everyone!) 
Treat yo self ladies (and gentleman-you need soft skin too!)
Here's a pic of me rocking my mask! 
(you can't really see my bad breakouts they're on the other side of my face hence why I chose this side lol)

Refresh Vox Box

As you may or may not know I am a member of Influenster (a website where you review products and can qualify for campaigns where you get to review products for free). I qualified for the Refresh VoxBox! So here are my reviews on the products inside: 



Beanitos Chips Original- I didn't like these. I could tell that they were bean chips as opposed to like Lay's or tortilla chips. I thought they would taste like tortilla chips since that's what they look like but I. was. wrong. Would probably taste good with some kind of dip.

Beanitos Chips Nacho Cheese- Have not tried at time of review WILL UPDATE YOU SOON

Covergirl UltraSmooth Foundation- Not a fan. The shade I have is a little too dark but can be blended to work. I don't like the applicator it comes with it is basically a piece of rubber and you're suppose to rub it on your face. It feels weird and doesn't blend as well/easily as my sponge. I also don't see where is "smooths facial hair" which is it's biggest claim. It is somewhat smoothing but other foundations I have work better. It also does NO favors for my pores. The coverage is less than great and I wouldn't recommend if you have acne or skin that needs coverage. Plus after applying it has a tacky texture that doesn't go away throughout the day. The price is a little high for a drugstore foundation so use coupons and wait for sales! Would recommend IF you have small pores and only need a light/medium coverage.

L'OCCITANE Shea Butter Light Comforting Cream- Probably my second favorite thing I got in the box. The cream is super light so it doesn't clog my pores. It makes my skin super soft. I'm not a big fan of the scent but it's not awful (smells like baby powder). It is a little bit on the pricier side so I don't see myself buying a full size at the moment but I do have a store near me so I will try other things from the brand! Highly recommend for winter months!

Orgain Certified Organic Nutritional Shake- I got a coupon for a free shake but I'm not sure where these are sold & if I'll be able to try one. AGAIN WILL UPDATE

Montagne Jeunesse Face Masques (Manuka Honey)- MY FAVORITE THING IN THE BOX. You should be able to find these at Ulta and Walmart. The honey mask really moisturized my skin and helped with some of my acne (it is suppose to be antibacterial) Can't wait to try more from this brand. (face masks are my new thing)

Skinny Girl Tasty Nutritional Bar- haven't tried will update you

Listerine Pocketpacks- I'm not a fan of these. They do the job I just don't like the taste of them. They are VERY strong and have a weird after taste.

Dentek Fun flossers- I could see these being helpful for little kids to get them to floss but I'm 17 so really isn't something I HAVE to have.

Dentek Comfort Clean Floss Picks- If I hadn't ruined the package this would be something I would keep in my purse for food related emergencies throughout the day. They are just floss picks so they're not anything special but they do the job and I like the minty taste.
