I would call this a moisturiser rather than a mask.
This product is called a face mask but really it's a moisturiser as far as I can tell and I notice that some of the other reviewers are thinking likewise, so I've no idea why someone decided to call it a mask.Anyway, it's an excellent moisturiser, it's in a blue/purple jar, it's a thick silky constitancy which makes it seem very luxurious whilst putting it on. There is a small plastic spatula to put it on with, you only need a thin layer, if you put it on thickly it won't make your face more moisturised, it will just be wasted and will run out faster so my advice is to use it sparingly.I was pleased to read it contains 10% Niacinamide.Farmacy 10% Niacinamide Facial Mask is probably one of the best moisturisers I have used, I will probably make it my usual moisturiser from now on.Thank you for reading my review, I hope it helped you.

Completely transformed my skin
I’m pretty sceptical of the claims of the beauty industry after many years of trying to find the right skincare regime, but this mask has completely transformed my skin.I’m in my late thirties with skin that is still hormonal, sensitive, dry and yet oily with large pores and prone to breakouts. Sound familiar?? I’ve been using this for a month and from the first use I felt the difference. My skin feels soft, looks more hydrated and plump, my pores are smaller and no breakouts. It’s a miracle! Ok, so I’ve had a few tiny spots but very superficial and gone in a day, not the huge deep ones that feel like they have a mind of their own.You only need a tiny, tiny amount, applied with the spatula, so it will last for ages. I like that there is no perfume and it doesn’t mark my pillow, despite the very faint blue tint to the product. It takes a bit of getting used to that it doesn’t dry out like other face masks, but that makes it comfortable to use overnight. In the morning I wash my face with a flannel, then apply a light moisturiser and sunscreen. My skin is hydrated without needing a heavy daytime moisturiser that just makes me look overly shiny.I often look on a site called Incidedecoder to search products and see what the ingredients mean. This mask gets all neutral or “goodies” comments which is great. I’ve used products with Niacinamide before but never had these results.I can’t praise this enough, I love it. I can’t believe this is my skin!

Really good night mask
I really, really like this overnight mask. I briefly heard of Farmacy brand before and was happy to try out their products.The mask is definitely presented is a more high end way. Everything from the packaging, to the added spatula and the frosted glass of the jar shows that this product is pretty funny. Fortunately it also works really well.The mask itself has a gel like consistency. You only need a tiny bit for each application, and I really mean it. A little goes a long way. The products distributes on the skin well. Ones on the skin it has a look and feel of Vaseline. I’ve seen other reviewers saying it absorbs well. I disagree with this statement. This product is more meant to sit on the skin overnight to aid hydration. Be prepared to have some of it left on the pillowcase.I find that this mask really works well. I put my night routine products and seal it with this mask couple of times a week. I can definitely see a difference in the morning. The skin looks much smoother, definitely more hydrated and also very even. It definitely does what it claims on the packaging.It’s a shame there is no details about the product on the actual Amazon page, I hope this will be amended in the future. I’m also not able to provide a current price as this is not currently available as the product appears to be sold out at the moment.Overall this is a great mask. I enjoy using it and love the results. The product feels quite luxurious, like something used in a spa. I’m very happy with it. Highly recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

A great moisturiser
Personally, I wouldn’t call this a mask. I got it out this morning to use as a mask, thinking I would thickly dollop it on, sit back and relax for 20 minutes and then wash it off.That’s when I realised it’s supposed to be an overnight treatment, but I’d just washed my face and set aside the time to try this so I decided to use it anyway.My first point of concern is that the product was in no way sealed? Lifting the jar out of the box, the lid was actually loose! There is a little plastic insert over the product and below the lid but this was in no way sealed against the air, and also not tamper-proof. As the box says it should be used 12 months after opening, mine has been theoretically open for some time?Anyway, the mask has a gel-cream texture, a lovely lilac blue colour, no discernible scent, and whilst there is a little spatula provided to apply with, I preferred to use my fingers so I can feel how its being absorbed.It actually soaked into my skin really quickly, and definitely made my skin feel nourished and soft, with absolutely no greasiness.I would call this a moisturiser, nit a mask, and I would also happily use this in the mornings before applying my make-up, and not just at night, because within a few minutes it has disappeared into my skin, which now looks glowing and feels soft and is definitely now ready for my usual make-up routine.
