Pros: Cheap, Smells yummy
Cons: Does not work, Sticky, Gets all over everything
The Bottom Line: If you are really in the mood to sit still for 20 minutes with a glue-like substance on your face with no apparent benefits, go for it.

| gwumpysmurf's Full Review: Freeman Facial Masque Cucumber Melon & Ginseng 6oz |
I love trying all kinds of new products on my face, hell, who needs to look good? Okay me, but I am willing to take that chance. And take that chance I did with Freeman Cucumber Melon & Ginseng Facial Peel-Off.
Application
Okay, application was easy as could possibly be. Smear yummy smelling goo all over my face. Check. Okay, now I have yummy smelling, sticky goo all over my shirt, my hands, my sink, and everything else in the room. Yay, just kidding, that is so not what's up. Now, for the next 10 to 15 minutes or till dry I cannot rest my face on my hands, lie down, or do anything where my head will be turned at an angle in which it will get goo on my shirt. Very uncomfortable, but at least it smelled good.
20 Minutes Later...
Okay, the bottle says 10-15 minutes or till dry, it has been 20 minutes and alas it kind of feels dry. As I peel I see that in fact, it was not dry. Now I have what looks like chunks of dried up skin stuck to goo on my face, stuck to goo on my pants, goo on my shirt, and goo everywhere I have stepped in the past half hour. This has truly been a disaster, the results better be worth it. My whole house and my clothes are covered in globs of goo and various other things that have drifted through the air.
How is Your Skin?
I'll give them this much, after an hour or so of trying to get off all of the goo that has finally dried up, my face smells of a lovely combination of cucumber, melon, and ginseng. My face looks the same (other than the small patch of forehead that I have been digging my nails into to try to scrape the mask off of, that's red). I poke at my face a bit, it feels the same. Well, that was not worth it.
The Verdict
It did not make my face look any worse, but my angora sweater definitely looked better before its little facial. I will never use this stupid peel again; it went straight in the trash. I guess you could give it to your kids, only they could fully appreciate the Elmer-glue-like chunks of stuff you peel off your face. I guess they could also use it to play practical jokes on each other like making their sisters butt get stuck to the toilet seat. I do not know, I am at a loss, all I can say is that this peel is not worth anything so I am glad I did not pay a lot for it.
