It took me about half the tube to discover the effects of this "mystery mask". I kept waiting for some dramatic results after rinsing off, but that is not what this mask does. This mask leaves...

I think the great mystery is: what exactly is this stuff supposed to do, anyway? Beyond the warming when you apply it, and the smooth feeling afterward that only serves a short lived tactile...

Didn't do anything bad or good. In fact, I don't think it did anything at all. This is an incredibly pointless product. Somebody please take it off of me!
