Review: Systeme 41 Rejuvenating Masque

I didn't know what to expect when I received a box of Systeme 41 products. For some reason, it reminded me of the Proactiv design and I wondered how it could be a "green" product. However, after further research, I found out that the idea behind this line is that it has mild ingredients and none of the harsh chemicals found in conventional products.  I tested out the Rejuventaing Masque to see how well it would perform.

Pros:
  • Multi-tasking product (exfoliator/masque)
  • Left skin soft
  • Gentle tightening effect when used as a masque
  • Works well as an exfoliator
  • Mild ingredients
Cons:
  • May irritate sensitive skin
Summary:
This product seemed to work well, but I found it more useful as an exfoliator than as a masque.  When used as a masque, my skin felt warm and tight, which I found slightly uncomfortable.  Also, the product will be used up much faster if used as a masque.  It is gentler when using it as an exfoliator and has nearly the same results (softens skin).

I'd really like to see the Systeme 41 site use a cleaner, more image-based design and sell their products under a simpler pricing structure.  The current layout reminded me of a made-for-TV ad, which led me to be skeptical of a product that, upon further examination, seemed to have good ingredients and performed well when used an exfoliator.
