It’s such hyped beauty product at the moment, but I’m loving
the Origins Drink-up intensive overnight mask. I’ve had a few sample sizes of
this in the past but never thought to use them, which is ridiculous. I do like
Origins products so had high hopes about this and I wasn’t disappointed!
The thing I first noticed was the smell, and oh my, I
absolutely love it! It is clean, fruity and reminds me of the peach yoghurts I
loved as child. I’ve never used a hydrating mask like this before, but it is basically
an intense moisturiser you apply before bed, which helps replace lost moisture and
lock in hydration to the skin. And in the morning you wake to hydrated skin which
has been ‘drank up overnight’, just like it says on the bottle!
It’s a thick cream gel like consistency which you literally
apply after you’ve cleansed your face. It doesn’t feel heavy or thick on the
skin, but actually rather refreshing, which I think is half down to the amazing
smell. It is designed for dry or dehydrated skin, and although my skin isn’t necessarily
dry, I do have eczema like patches on my skin in the winter. I was cautious
about applying this all over my face in case it made my face appear greasy, but
fear not, I couldn’t have been more impressed.
I use it a couple of times a week, when I want to give my
skin a bit of a treat, and I really do wake up in the morning and feel and see
the difference to my skin. My skin feels plumper and the texture is smoother. I
think that it is fair to say that this will be a staple in my skincare routine
for a long time, as I’ve not found a product like it yet.
It costs £22 for a 100ml tube, which I don’t think is badly
priced for a product that is effective and lasts a long time. I’ve used a 30ml
tube in two months, and I’ve not tried to use the product sparingly. Has anyone
else tried it or found another hydrating mask they love?
Overall review: 4/5
