Eve Lom Radiance Transforming Mask in Review

Pastels & Pastries review of EVE LOM Radiance Transforming Mask

Glowing, supple, radiant skin-- GET AT ME!

EVE LOM is one of the most luxurious skincare lines I'd had the pleasure of trying. I become obsessed with the cleanser which had led me to fall for their face mist, face oil, and now face masks. When I had heard some pretty epic things regarding EVE LOM's latest addition to their collection, the Radiance Transforming Mask, I knew it had to try it out. It promised an intense facial treatment (packed with botanicals and antioxidants) to smooth out your skin, exfoliate, hydrate, and leave you looking fresh. FRESH indeed my friends!

The mask is soft, not sticky, it's light and glides on like a dream. Think of the consistency of aloe gel. I like to apply with a hairless mask brush and get an even layer all over my face. Now here is where you have two options. One-- leave it on for a minimum of 30 minutes, then wash off. Two-- use it as an overnight mask. I've done it both ways. Both times I've had noticeable results.

Pro tip: When using the mask overnight massage it into the skin after applying so there is less residue. I also like to cover my pillowcase with an old pillowcase or shirt in case my face rubs too much into it. Other than that I do not find any issues with masking overnight! I just pull my hair back and sleep normally. If the mask feels too heavy, blot away some excess with a tissue before hopping into bed.

BEFORE
My skin was dull, it lacked any radiance, and it looked extremely tired. Eyes were also quite puffy.

DURING
You can see in the picture with the mask on, the glow is already starting! It feels so light on the face and SO refreshing. Like you've just rubbed cool cucumber-lime gel all over. You could literally leave this on forever. I think that's why I had no issue with leaving it on as an overnighter. It feels like it's tightening your skin as you watch.

AFTER
Can I just say WOW? First of all, no downtime. Some masks leave you red, inflamed and just plain blotchy or irritated. Not even an ounce of this found here, my friends. It must be from the gentle caviar lime which promotes natural cell turnover. The mask is also packed with other natural ingredients like algae extract and hemp seed oil.  Algea to firm and hydrate, and hemp seed oil which moistens in a non-greasy way.  My face was so soft to the touch, was so smooth and hydrated. The smoothness is not just a feeling, my face actually looked blurred... in a good way! Not to mention it was radiant and refreshed and looking pretty dang velvety.


Like I mentioned, I've done the mask overnight, and for 30 minutes, which is perfect to do before a night out! Either way, I'm EVE LOM in love.

An Overnight Mask You'll Thank Me You Tried

Kiehls Masks and oil for glowing, dewy skin, the best overnight mask, how to get glowing skin, summer 2018 beauty and skincare

I don't know why it took me so long to get on board with overnight masks. Okay, that's a lie... I do know! I thought they would leave your face feeling soo slimy before bed and end up all over your pillowcases. Boy, was I ever wrong. I was introduced to this Kiehl's Ginger Leaf & Hibiscus Firming Overnight Mask a few months ago and I am hooked. I have since been adding it to my weekly routine and it is so lovely! It actually feels like a treat and I get excited about my weekly addition. The texture is whipped; it's cooling, light, airy and so soft, and it goes on flawlessly.

What do I do?
I simply swap out my normal face routine one night a week and slather this on after I have cleaned and washed away all makeup. It is gentle to use more than once a week so feel free to go wild! I love it because it is so soft on the skin and you will notice a difference when you wake up. I'm talking that soft, baby skin you are looking for! Make sure to completely rub it in the skin (upward and outward) so it can completely penetrate the skin and you are not left with any residue.

What does it do?
It smooths out the skin on your face, it tightens and it firms your skin. If you need a boost of elasticity or line filling overtime, let this be your go-to! My skin always feels so soft and hydrated the next morning. And if you're like me and love a good floral scent mixed with a hint of ginger, you will LOVE this.

Simply wake up, wash off and slather on some more oil and you are good to go! FYI-- I'm oil-obsessed and the perfect compliment to this mask is the Kiehl's Daily Reviving Concentrate is my jam. Your face will be SO DEWY, so glowy and just so silky! I could massage it into my skin for hours! Keep in mind, 1-2 drops are all you need! No more dull skin I can promise you that.

Have a mask I need to try? Let me know!
