Beauty Product Reviews
Just no
If you like very matte and drying lip products then this is for you. I do not. This drags badly when you apply it and it falls into every natural lip line. The finish is terrible. It feels thick and looks even worse. The pigmentation is good; not too sheer nor too opaque. For a lip product advertised as “nourishing”, this is just a huge fail. I did try it several times to make sure that it wasn’t just the first 1 or 2 applications that were bad. It dried my lips out so bad I just chucked it. And it’s not eligible for return so there’s that. I really don’t recommend this product. I’m so, so tired of beauty manufacturers advertising a product as one thing and the reality turning out to be not even close.
Not for me
I initially reviewed this product on April 12, 2018. As noted in my first review, it didn’t work out very well for me. It did nothing for my skin and I broke out in blisters the first time I used it. I decided to let those blisters heal and then try again. Crazy maybe, but this mask has so many glowing reviews around the internet I wanted to try again. Just in case the first time was a fluke. Not a fluke. Broke out in more blisters the second time around. I have to say this is puzzling to me since I don’t have sensitive skin and I have never had this reaction to the hundreds of skin care items I have slapped on my face over the years. But it was enough to convince me not to try again. Also, this mask dried out my skin rather than moisturizing it. I’ve noticed in a lot of reviews that people talk about how nice the smell is. Mine had no fragrance. None. Couldn’t even detect a slight scent of rose. All of these factors combined left me with my original conclusion; I must have received a bad batch. Sure won’t be trying it again. It went in the trash. Very expensive experiment gone awry.
Big fail
I’ve been wanting this product forever after reading glowing reviews all over the web. It did nothing for my dry skin, left it no more moisturized than anything else I’ve ever used. Worse, my face has broken out in blisters. I’ve used other rose based products before with no reaction so I don’t know what the problem is. But something doesn’t agree with me and I do not have sensitive skin. I have never had a bad reaction to any product I have ever used, so this was surprising to say the least. Maybe I got a bad tube but this will definitely be my one and only experience with Sisley.
