We all have those friends whose beauty opinions we trust above all else. And, even as a beauty blogger, I still look to other people in my life for their product recommendations. The one I trust above all else? My friend Claire. She tries tons of products and always, ALWAYS knows exactly what works and what makes it so incredible. So when she told me I had to try the Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask, I immediately bought it. I mean, while she was still in the room. Because what she says, goes!

And guess what? This product does not disappoint. I've long been a fan of sleep masks, because I love that they work to provide extra hydration and nourishment to the skin than a normal night cream would. And I'm here to tell you that this Glow Recipe one is totally, completely, 100 percent worth adding to your regimen ASAP ... not only because the packaging is undeniably chic and sexy, but because this product WORKS.

The formula of this sleep mask definitely takes a little getting used to. You only need a dime-sized amount for your whole face, which means it lasts FOREVER. The consistency is of a gel-cream, but rather than sinking into skin immediately, it leaves a slick feel on the skin's surface for about 10-15 minutes. It actually feels so slick that even when you wash your hands with soap, it doesn't really escape the skin. But after about 10-15 minutes, it all of a sudden sinks into your skin and just makes it feel bouncy and pillowy soft right from the moment it disappears! Interestingly, even if you lie down before it's worked its sinking in magic, it doesn't transfer to your pillowcase or sheets.

This sleeping mask is formulated with a combination of watermelon extract (rich in amino acids), hyaluronic acid and pore-refining AHAs that all work to hydrate, exfoliate and clarify the skin while you sleep. My skin is definitely always on the dry side, but even within a few uses of this mask, my skin is noticeably softer and smoother. I've also found my skin to be much glowier than before.

And let's just talk for a moment about the scent. THIS. MASK. SMELLS. AMAZING. The scent of watermelon wafts out of the jar, enveloping you in the feeling of summer no matter what the weather may be outside. I wish I could just leave the jar open so my apartment would smell like this all the time!

  2. That's great that it doesn't transfer to the pillows. I have to change my pillow covers each time after using a sleeping mask.
