Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask Review, Swatch

Hello Everyone,

I have heard and used face packs, face masks (the wet sheets) but overnight mask sounded a bit crazy to me. It can be compared to leave-in hair serums which are meant to be applied and not washed off.  So, Today I am reviewing similar product for your face a “Face Mask” from Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss range, Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask.

Product Claims: Leave the mask on all night to flaunt a gorgeous gloss next day from the minute you wake up. Enriched with minerals, the Lakmé Skin Gloss Overnight Mask keeps your skin hydrated and nourished.

1. Mineral laden glacial water continuously replenishes moisture
2. Hydrates to make skin look lustrous
3. Moisture coat your skin with gloss

Direction for Use:-

1. Squeeze 5-6 drops from the tube on to your palm.
2. Dab entire face with dots of overnight mask.
3. Gently pat until it is completely absorbed.

This is a leave-on product, do not wash off post product application and leave it on all night.

Price:- Rs.599 for 50gm

Shelf Life:- 18 months years from the Mfg date.

Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Range includes:

1. Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Gel Creme
2. Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Reflection Serum
3. Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask

Packaging:-  Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask comes in a black plastic jar type packaging with a minty metallic blue screw cap. The packaging is similar to the Lakme Absolute Skin firming range but with a different color combination. The tub is housed in a box which has all the details of the product.

My experience with Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask:-

Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask is a creamy white colored gel with medium-thin consistency. It has a watery feel to it and goes absolutely clear on application. Similar to the Gel Crème it gives a mild cooling sensation as it gets absorbed into the skin.

It has a light weight formula and silky smooth non-sticky, non-greasy texture that applies evenly and blends beautifully into the skin. It gets absorbed quickly into the skin but not completely as I can feel some part o it still sitting on the top of the skin even after massaging it. It doesn’t feel heavy or sticky but do make my skin feel sweaty. I guess this is where its mask like properties comes into play.

The overnight mask has a strong musky fragrance like that of an after shave which does take a while to fade off.

Results: As claimed, Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask is definitely hydrating to my dry skin which instantly plumps up with its cooling sensation and quick absorbing gel formula. It adds a lustrous shine to the skin but the sweaty feel doesn’t make it a great option for summers. It is slightly heavier and more nourishing than the Gel Crème so use it moderation as excess of it could give you a shiny/sweaty face. It makes my skin smoother and softer the next day but the results are short-lived.

Recommendation:- Lakme Absolute Skin Gloss Overnight Mask is a creamy white gel with silky smooth light-weight texture that blends quickly into the skin. It gives a mild cooling sensation which feels soothing and freshens up my dry skin but it doesn’t get absorbed completely and leaves behind a slippery layer which gives a sweaty feel in summers. It has a strong musky fragrance which is a little bothersome. It doesn’t feel heavy and provides good hydration to my dry skin but wish it had absorbed completely and had a soothing fragrance.

Rating:- 3/5
