Blogmas Day 21: Tatcha Violet C Radiance Mask
Blogmas Day 21
I have been wanting to try this Tatcha Violet C Radiance Mask since it launched! I heard such great things but I was scared of the price-tag. But, I thought I would test it out first before I buy so I went to Sephora and got a sample.Â
Here is what the mask claims to do:Â
Reveal remarkably softer, smoother skin with this creamy rinse-off treatment mask. The formula features two types of vitamin C: a water-soluble vitamin C derivative that absorbs quickly for an immediate glow and an oil-soluble vitamin C derivative that remains in skin longer, providing antioxidant protection from UV damage for a brighter, more even-toned appearance over time. The mask is also powered by the Japanese beautyberry, a superfruit rich in antioxidants that was found to stabilize vitamin C, maximizing its effectiveness. A gentle 10 percent AHA complex of seven fruits removes debris and the buildup of dead skin cells to visibly improve skin texture and support the natural production of new skin cells. Tatcha's signature trio of Japanese anti-aging superfoods—green tea, rice, and algae—helps to restore a more youthful appearance.
Here's what I thought after one use:
PRO: This mask feels amazingly moisturizing! Both when applying it and rinsing it off it felt like a lotion-- it was wild!
PRO: This smells so fresh and clean and almost fruity.
PRO: It's purple, people! How cool is that?!
CON: This mask does not dry down all the way so it was hard to tell when it was ready to come off.
CON: You have to use a lot in order to get a good layer built up.
PRO: My face feels SO soft and my skin looks brighter and glowier than before.
I am really happy with this mask-- so happy I may even end up purchasing it! Have you tried this? Is it worth the splurge? Let me know!
