Todays #TBT post reviews a face mask from the Austrian
Organic Luxury skincare brand Susanne Kaufmann.
I was fortunate to try this luxurious mask back in May 2018 and I still rate
it as a very good moisturising mask and I'm happy to report that this
brand is still stocked exclusively in South Africa at

Having never heard of this relatively new brand I had to do my research,
so before I get into the product review, here's some background to the

centuries-old wisdom,

This range of products are filled, sealed and packed by hand into very plain glass jars with
no fancy frills,
in fact I would most probably
have not given this, somewhat boring looking, range a second glance if
I saw it merchandised on the shelf.
However this is a real case of "don't judge a book (product) by its cover"
for what lies beneath the lid is far from plain and boring.

There is something I find so satisfying about using a Luxury face mask,
for me it's a product where you can truly feel the quality of the ingredients on
application and The Susanne Kaufmann Moisturizing Mask
is a real pamper for the skin.
It's without doubt a deeply replenishing and intensely moisturising mask.
It's a must-have for all those whose skin is particularly parched,
stressed or lacklustre.
Initially you notice the gentle yet wonderful aroma of the mask, as it certainly
has an Alpine fresh fragrance,which reminded me
It's a must-have for all those whose skin is particularly parched,

Initially you notice the gentle yet wonderful aroma of the mask, as it certainly
has an Alpine fresh fragrance,which reminded me
very much of the original Clarins Cleanser Milk with Alpine Herbs.
This rich velvety mask is also packed with wonderful ingredients that
quite literally make me happy:
Bee's Wax and Hazel Nut Oil
richly nourishes the skin
Wheat Germ Oil
stimulates the metabolism and has tissue-strengthening properties
Pansy Extract
has a calming effect that relieves irritation providing immediate relief
from tightness and discomfort
Sodium Hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid)
attracts and retains up to 1000 times its molecular weight in water,
to leave skin perfectly firm, fresh and luminous.
Suitable for all types of skin.
Generously apply to the face, neck and décolletage after cleansing,
allow to work for at least ten minutes,
then remove gently with lukewarm water.
It can be used one to two times per week, but I squeezed in a third
application.
After using the mask my skin not only felt nourished,comforted,plumped
but I immediately noticed that my face had an
almost relaxed and rested look about it,
which to be honest I don't think I have ever noticed before after using a face mask.
When reading back over the benefits of this mask on the Susanne Kaufmann
website this sentence stood out
"The moisturising mask hydrates the skin and removes feelings of tension".
Confirmation that this mask is different to other prestige moisturising masks
that I've tried and has piqued my interest to learn and try more from this brand.
If you are looking to change from high end skincare to effective Organic
high end skincare then Susanne Kaufmann
may be well worth some more investigation.
The 15ml sample jar that I got in the SkinsCosmetics Beauty Box some
weeks back

will happily provide me with several future generous applications.
