I have been waiting to try this mask, and must say that using this was definitely worth the wait.

Intensive Brightening Mask is formulated with "Specially developed with Shiseido-original Multi-Target Vitamin C and Spot Deacti-Complex to suppress melanin formation. Formulated with Asian plant extracts to improve moisture balance and leave skin smooth and supple with a dewy fresh vibrance. Contains AE Complex, a highly effective absorption enhancer that maximizes the delivery of beneficial ingredients to skin." In laymen terms, this mask is made to inhibit melanin production, making skin more even. It targets freckles, unevenness, and dark spots due to sun rays and overall aging.

The mask is just that, a cloth mask that is soaked with the formula that you simply open up and place over your face. You leave it on for a short ten minutes, and peel it off, smoothing the leftover liquid onto skin.

The pack of masks, which contains six masks, sells for $66.  So just for $11 a treatment, it is really a good deal.

Intensive Brightening Mask, as well as the rest of the White Lucent collection is available at Nordstrom.com.

The set, pictured above, is  available at QVC for just $30, and it is everything teens need to start a perfect skincare routine. Two kits are available: Almost Normal and Skin with Attitude.  Look is what the Almost Normal kit contains:

  • 2-oz strawberry/jojoba Rise and Shine facial cleanser
  • 2-oz apple Ooh-Refreshing facial toner
  • 2-oz lavender oil-free Out and About lotion with SPF 15
  • 4-ml peppermint Zip-It blemish stick

My 15 year old loves the Zip-It blemish stick, and uses it just a few times a day on pimples until they disappear. While my 12 year old loves the Ooh-Refreshin toner. She says it makes her face feel awake and ready to go.

 "Why is TESS different: The paraben-free products contain natural ingredients such as lavender oil, aloe vera gel, chamomile, green tea, lemon peel, and apple strawberry. The kit is fun and easy to use, with inspirational and empowering messages on the packaging and bottles. Tess gathered input from moms and teens to create the scents, ingredients, and textures of the products."

My family is so glad to have found this, and your favorite teen will be too.
