Fall is officially here! The trees are in full transition to beautiful colors. There is a slight chill in the air in the early mornings. Yes….fall is here! It should be no surprise then that a few weeks ago, I happened upon this mask while browsing the Just arrived category at Sephora. Pumpkin enzymes combined to make an extremely powerful, highly effective exfoliating treatment that works wonders to address dull, aging skin and leaves your face feeling beautiful and soft?? Pumpkin? Enzyme? Mask? Anti-aging? YEP, that’s for me!
The mask works its magic by using a specially formulated pumpkin enzyme to exfoliate dead skin cells to reveal younger, more youthful looking skin. Into my basket it promptly went and through checkout it sailed! Here is the mask’s claim to fame from the Peter Thomas Roth Website:
“This powerful, triple-action manual, chemical and enzymatic exfoliating treatment addresses a dull, aging, and congested complexion in three ways: exfoliates with Pumpkin Enzyme, reveals with Alpha Hydroxy Acid and polishes with Aluminum Oxide Crystals. Helps even the appearance of skin tone, smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles and clarify to reveal skin that looks smoother, younger, radiant and revitalized.”
So does it live up to the hype?? Absolutely! The mask does not disappoint!. I have had other pumpkin enzyme products. However, they have all fallen short when compared to this beauty. First off, the smell of 🎃🎃 is amazing!! Its is sooooo strong smelling and just wonderful!
I applied about 2 quarter sized amounts of the mask to my face and used small light circular motions all around my face (avoiding my undereye areas) as directed to give my skin the polishing effect. I then left the mask on my face for the full 7 minutes. Ok.. ok …, to be totally honest, 🙄🙄 I left it on for about 30 minutes as I got sidetracked doing other things around the house (I just loved the darn pumpkin smell and it tingled while I had it on). It is heavenly. Afterwards, I washed it off with my Tata Harper Regenerating Exfoliating Cleanser.
My skin felt a bit tight right after I washed off the mask. My pores were definitely visibly diminished, my skin glowed and my face was smoother than a baby’s bottom! The biggest standout was that my skin felt so soft! I followed up with my Augustinus Bader PPC Cellular Renewal Crème and I was good to go for the evening. The next morning? My skin still glowed!
This wonderful pumpkin enzyme mask has earned a permanent place in my skincare regimen. If amazingly soft, radiant skin is your thing? I’m guessing you will love it too! ~ Christine
