Face Masks and Eye Patches Round Up

Whilst the weather has been so cold and wet, and I’ve been spending lots of time indoors and with the heating on, I’ve been trying to get more into skincare and keeping my skin hydrated and moisturised. I find it hard to remember to use creams etc, so decided to give face and eye masks a go; and here are some that I’ve tried.

Love Mushrooms Collagen Truffle Face Masks

Love Mushrooms Collagen Truffle Face Masks are a luxurious new treatment designed for women 35+ seeking visible results without compromise.  

Love Mushrooms has created collagen proteins specifically for their new skincare range, that are identical to those in human skin. Using advanced biotech, we create collagen proteins identical to those found in human skin, for real results with zero animal ingredients. 

Each mask is infused with fermented Tremella mushroom, a biotech-enhanced ingredient recognised as nature’s hyaluronic acid to penetrate moisture into the skin, alongside white truffle extract for antioxidant protection and a radiant glow, and Biome-supporting ingredients to improve skin’s strength and repair.
