InstaNatural - Dead Sea Mud Mask & Moroccan Rose Water Toner



Hello Everyone! Today, I want to talk to you about a company I recently had the pleasure of working with for the 4th time (I enjoy the products that much!), last time I reviewed their Argan Oil Hair Mask and it worked so well. This time I am even more excited, because I will be reviewing their Dead Sea Mud Mask & Moroccan Rose Water Toner! I have been wanting to try the Toner since I started working with the company, and who doesn't love a good face mask?

Who Is InstaNatural?

About InstaNatural

"InstaNatural was started as a small local business in Florida and after positive feedback from all their customers, they decided to step into online distribution. They launched their first product in 2013 and since then they have never looked back.
At present, InstaNatural is a leading online distributer of six nature inspired beauty and cosmetics products. InstaNatural is constantly in search of wonderful natural ingredients from the whole world to bring to its customers beauty products bursting with efficiency to enhance the natural beauty that is often lost due to various external and internal factors."

Vision and Philosophy

“InstaNatural is committed towards bringing its great beauty products. We at InstaNatural value the safety of our customers therefore we reveal every single ingredient included in our products on the label. We wake up each day with a vision to provide maximum satisfaction to our customers with our constant efforts.”

I love how on their site you can really feel through their story who they are and what they are all about.  I also can appreciate a hard working company from the south, since I live in South Carolina. My other favorite thing about them is that they list all the ingredients they use on their labels. If you wish to learn more about InstaNatural you go to their site which is located here. 

They also have a facebook page where you keep up with their updates, as well as contests located here.

The Products/My Thoughts


From their site...
Dead Sea Mud Mask is an all-natural detoxifier and purifier that comes from the renowned and sacred Dead Sea. More than a million visitors each year flock to this extraordinary body of water in the Mediterranean, which contains many minerals beneficial to the skin, such as magnesium, sodium, bromine, potassium and calcium.

Once applied, this mud mask treatment starts working to absorb excess oil, dirt and toxins from the skin. It is great to expunge acne, pimples and blackheads. It also helps to restore an even skin tone for a smoother complexion. When used as a body treatment, the mud mask can soothe and relieve muscles aches and pains.

Whether used on the face or the body, our Dead Sea Mud Mask is a superb in-home spa treatment that will reveal more vibrant, refined, healthier skin. 

Natural Remedy for:
- Acne & blemishes 
- Enlarged pores 
- Wrinkles & fine lines 
- Body aches 
- Irritated or Dry Skin


Here is what the mask looks like inside the container. You get a lot of the product! I'm not sure how many one container makes, but I imagine you could use this once a week for maybe half the year? 


The first thing I noticed about this product, is it doesn't have any kind of weird smell like some mud masks I have used in the past. In fact to me, it doesn't have a smell at all. I then proceeded to apply it to my face. It has a really creamy texture while your putting it on, then once it starts to harden on your face, you can really feel it going to work. You know it is ready to take off once it turn's to a light brown faded color. Once I took it off my face felt tingly all over in a good way, like when you wash your face and you can feel your pores tingling. I also noticed before I did it I had a lot of flaky skin, which it all removed. I definitely can see how this product would be good for fine lines and wrinkles, because it does a great job of tightening your skin as well. I would recommend this product if your looking for a well made mud mask or having problems with dry skin.

If you wish to purchase this product or find out more about it you can go here: http://www.amazon.com/Dead-Sea-Mud-Facial-Mask/dp/B00OPCHAB6#customerReviews to do so. It is currently $25.95 to purchase, which I think is reasonable based on how well it's made and the amount of product you get.

 Overall Product Score: 4.5*

There are so many different uses for this product, which is one of the things that I like about this product. I also love the smell of it, rose is one of my favorite scent's and this is dead on with how rose's smell. You can use this on your hair, your face, and body. I love using it on my face, it gives me nice clean feeling and in my opinion is one of the better toner's I have used (and I have used a lot!). I also like using it to put a little bit in my bath water, it not only smells great but it make's my skin super soft! Another great thing to do with this product is using it on your hair. You can put it on your hair 15-20 minutes before you wash it, leaving it super shiny, healthy, and soft! This is one of my new favorite toner's, and when I run out I plan on getting more. For me it work's that great, and out of all of the products I have tried from InstaNatural (I have tried them all!) it is one of my top picks.

If you wish to purchase this product, they currently have it on Amazon at an amazing price in my opinion, for $12.97 located here: http://www.amazon.com/Moroccan-Rose-Water-Facial-Toner/dp/B00IMHN0B4/ie=UTF8?m=A5C9JSAUMUB5Z&keywords=rose+water+face+toner

Montagne Jeunesse Face Masks


Hello Everyone! I hope all of you are having a wonderful Sunday! Being it's Sunday, I figured this would be the perfect time to share with you some facemasks, I have had the chance to try. Not just any facemask however, the caviar of face masks - Montagne Jeunesse. 

Who is Montagne Jeunesse?

Let me first off start off by saying, Montagne Jeunesse is actually a company in Wales in the UK. However, Neoteric Cosmetics is the distributor for the US which is where these mask originally came from. If you wish to learn more about Neoteric Cosmetics you can view some of my previous blog post's where I talk about them, by typing their name in the search bar at the bottom of the page.

I love the story of Montagne Jeunesse and the timeline below is from their official site located here: http://www.montagnejeunesse.com/ 

1989 Montagne Jeunesse launch our ‘Save The Seal’ campaign.

1990 Our ‘Antarctica Appeal’ begins.

1994 The ‘Eco Factory’ is opened; the first of our world friendly ‘headquarters’.

2001 Our wind turbine ‘Windy’ goes live, helping reduce our carbon footprint.

2001 We’re walking the walk when it comes to the environment – we achieve our first ISO - 14001 followed by ISO 18001 in 2004. That basically means we’re doing lots of good stuff! “ISO ISO Baby!”

2005 We move into the Green Barn our new ‘super energy efficient’ headquarters.

2009 Our Green Team ‘ Green  Guardians’ embark upon their 5 year Site Management  Plan for the Green Barn, to encourage biodiversity within our beautiful grounds. They even plant kidney vetch to help nuture the rare Small Blue butterflies, now a priority species in the UK Biodiversity Action Plan.

2010 On TV…In Canada and then in the UK in 2011! (Interestingly the best matched TV programmes for the Montagne Jeunesse brand are Hollyoaks and The Only Way is Essex – ‘shut urp!’)

2012 Our ever growing online community exceeds a whopping 60,000 fans

Did you know Montagne Jeunesse masques are full of the most delicious and natural ingredients under the sun? A complete range of top to toe beauty treats, good for your skin, your wallet and the earth!

I love that not only do they make amazing masks, but they do good for our environment as well! That's a win win company in my eyes.

The Products/The Review


Manuka Honey Peel Off - "Busy Bees have collected nectar from the Manuka Bushes of New Zealand creating Manuka Honey - a natural anti-bacterial cleanser. They source pollen & we add the flower power of fragrant Jasmine." I love that this mask contains honey which is a great natural cleanser for your face. It also peels off really easy, and it smell's amazing! Price: $1.99


Super Fruit Mud - "Goji berries and nutrient-rich Pomegranates help this masque pack a punch in enabling your skin to be protected against the drying effects of environmental stresses." I love how this mask has ton's of nutrient's for your face, such as Pomegranates. It's the best smelling and feeling mud mask I have ever encountered. 
Price: $1.99


Creamy Coconut - "The hydrating goodness of fresh Coconut water, Shea butter and lots of other moisturizing and hydrating ingredients." This was the perfect mask for my skin. If you have dry skin like me, you have to try this. The Shea butter combined with coconut water did some awesome damage control to my skin. 
Price: $1.99


Aloe Vera Face Spa - "Soothing & Cleansing Fabric Facial." This mask was a little different from the rest. This mask is one of their newer ones and is a fabric mask. I love how not only does it have Aloe Vera, but Green Tea in it as well. It left my skin soothed and cleansed.
Price: $2.49


Here is a picture of me with the "Aloe Vera Face Spa" mask on. I thought the design of the mask with the aloe vera leaves and the Montagne Jeunesse logo, was really an added bonus on top of the amazing benefits it gave my face.

If you wish to buy any of the mask's seen here you can buy them for the prices I listed above at Neoteric Cosmetics which is located here: Buy Montagne Jeunesse

So, I want to know! What do you think about the Montagne Juenesse Face Masks? Have you ever tried any of them before, and how do you think they compare to other mask's you have used? I would love to hear your comments/questions - feel free to leave them below!
XOXO.
