[Review] Skinfood Black Sesame Hot Mask

I'm back with another review! My friend picked this up for me in Hong Kong during our summer break, and I've been using it ever since Sept. 

So here is the ingredient list, along with its purpose and how to use it. Pretty swell.

I mainly use it when my skin is having problems or when I feel like my skin's in need of a deep cleanse. It works pretty well, as it is easier to extract white heads/pimples afterwards. The mask feels hot, the instant I put it on my face. It's a weird feeling, as none of my other masks do that, but it feels nice. It also smells immensely like black sesame when I have it on, but my skin does not smell like black sesame afterwards, which is good.

This mask feels thick, and that made it difficult to slather on an even layer on my face. I usually just go for the trouble spots and layer it on there, and just put some on everywhere else.

As you can kinda tell, my cheeks have been giving me problems lately, along with my forehead/t-zone area. The thickness of this mask makes it difficult to get an even layer like my other masks, but I like the aftereffects. Would I buy this again? The answer is no. I like skinfood products, but this mask is kind of annoying to use, alongside the huge granules of black sesame inside, which I'm scared will do something to the overall ecosystem, as they seem kind of hard to break down.

Skinfood's Black Sesame Hot Mask is a cool product, and it's relatively cheap so it wasn't too bad. It works well enough, but there are better products on the market. I feel like it's more of a quick fix instead of a long term solution for my troubled skin.
