Hi there! Today’s post is about 2 face masks – Superdrug’s B. Hydrated Leave On Face Mask and Superdrug’s B. Detoxed Clay Face Mask. These masks are cruelty-free (Leaping Bunny certified) and suitable for vegans.
Superdrug’s B. Hydrated Leave On Face Mask promises to lock in moisture, to improve skin comfort and to reduce the appearance of dry and flaky skin. You’re supposed to leave this mask on for 10-15 minutes, then massage in into your skin.
My experience with this mask was horrible. Within seconds of applying the mask, my face felt like it was on fire. It took me less than 10 seconds to jump up and to run to the bathroom. But even after I’ve washed this disgusting stuff off, my face felt terrible for hours, and some skin started to flake off over the next two days! 😲 This mask is a strong contender for Worst Product Of The Year!
B. Detoxed Clay Face Mask promises to absorb dirt and debris (yes, it really says “debris”), to refresh and brighten the skin, and to minimise pores. This mask is supposed to be applied to cleansed skin, left on to dry for about 15 minutes and then rinsed off.
I’ve given this mask a try, and I’m happy to report that it’s cleansing and refreshing. I think my pores looked a bit smaller for half a day too. The mask is not brightening, but I didn’t expect this anyway, so that’s OK. I might repurchase this mask!
If you’re interested, Superdrug’s B. Hydrated Leave On Face Mask and B. Detoxed Clay Face Mask are available as 10ml for £2.99 each. I picked these up when Superdrug ran a Buy 1 Get 1 Free promotion (which they do fairly frequently).
Ooh, fire face is no bueno. It probably deserves worst product!

The clay one sounds good but that first one doesn’t, its never good when skincare reacts with your skin! Hope it calmed down quickly.

Oh no, face on fire! That first mask sounds horrible! Glad to hear that the second one didn’t trigger a reaction as well!

Omg that’s terrible!! I’d be freaked out if the effects lasted for days I’m glad all is good now.
It seems super drug is hit or miss huh? On the other hand I’m glad that a lot (or all?) Of their products are CF and suitable for vegans

I think the majority of Superdrug products are good (or better). But I’ve had 2 or 3 recently that gave me a reaction.
But yes, the entire brand is certified cruelty-free, and most products are vegan, some are vegetarian-friendly (i.e. if they contain beeswax or manuka honey and the likes).

Sounds like elf cosmetics, hit or miss.
I’m so glad they’re ethical, I cannot wait to visit the UK in the future and buy loads of stuff from Superdrug LOL
