| Review | Alpyn Beauty Wild Huckleberry 8-Acid Polishing Peel Mask


A new brand to me, Alpyn Beauty actually gifted me this peel mask and while it was not asked of me, I HAD to review it on here because I think everyone needs to know about it! The clean beauty market is rapidly expanding with so many new brands but not all brands or products are equal. This is my first introduction to the Alpyn Beauty brand and I'm extremely impressed! 

Alpyn Beauty is a luxury skincare brand that focuses on sustainably harvested ingredients. Their products use an exclusive blend of botanicals and actives from Wyoming, where the botanicals need to be resilient and strong. While they don't tout themselves as a clean beauty brand, they are considered clean by Sephora standards and if you look at their ingredients, it is quite a clean list.

FORMULA 

This product is a very unique hybrid between a scrub, a mask, and a peel. This pink paste has a mixture of large and fine scrubbing particles, which is composed of bamboo powder and berry seed paste. I love the mixture of large and small particles because it really smooths, polishes, and perfects the skin. The small particles go deep into the skin and pores while the larger particles refine and polish the skin for a smoother texture and a refreshing glow to the skin. What I love about the scrubbing particles is they do their job but they aren't abrasive or irritating to the skin. This concept of different sized particles is so simple but very effective and innovative! More brands should be using different sized scrubbing particles for effective exfoliation of the skin.

Also essential for exfoliating and polishing the skin is the blend of salicylic, citric, malic, tartaric, glycolic, azelaic, ferulic, and lactic acids. So, essentially, you have a physical and chemical exfoliator in one product. This combination is very potent and effective! Since you apply this product like a mask, spreading an even layer across the skin and allowing it to sit, the blend of acids does its work. The acids work to soften the skin's texture, smooth out the texture, and unclog pores. I also attribute the beautiful post-mask glow to this blend of acids! The acids are extremely gentle and they don't cause irritation or burning on the skin. I don't notice the acids working at all but the results show how potent this formula is!

After leaving the product on the skin for up to five minutes, you can begin removing it. The product dries to the skin, a lot like a clay mask so, I like to wet my hands and massage the product all over the face before removing it. This way, you get a very thorough resurfacing and polishing of the skin, removing rough texture and give you the glowiest complexion! 

As soon as you remove this mask, you will immediately notice how super soft your skin feels! Your skin becomes baby-soft again! It really is insane! If you run your hand over your face, you will notice how incredibly smooth your skin feels. I don't even notice how much texture is on my skin until after I use this mask and my skin feels unbelievably smooth. It isn't only the feeling of smoothness but you can see how significantly smoother it is because you will have glass-skin! Yes! I'm not kidding! I have not experienced this with any other product before! My skin looks so smooth and glowing, it is like reflective glass! Obviously, this effect is amplified by applying your skincare afterward but even just the immediate results stunned me!

This mask makes my skin so refined and truly polished to a shiny glow! It also helps all over skincare products absorb more efficiently. The other thing to note about this mask is that it smells amazing! It smells like a berry smoothie and it makes the experience even more enjoyable. For such a clean formula, it really delivers some amazing results!

The big ingredients to note in this formula are: 

Wild Huckleberry - This ingredient contains a high antioxidant content, which helps fight free radicals, repair wrinkles, and brighten the skin. This botanical helps protect and strengthen the skin against environmental damage. 

Natural 8-Acid Complex - This complex contains salicylic, citric, malic, tartaric, glycolic, azelaic, ferulic, and lactic acids to gently exfoliate the skin but go deeper into the pores and skin to soften it. This combination of acids really is really great for helping reduce acne and give the skin a really healthy glow. 

Bamboo Powder and Blueberry Seed Paste - These large and small particles really help scrub deep into the pores but also polish and refine the skin but it's still very gentle. This is what helps buff the skin to get that glass-like shine when you rinse everything off. It's truly the perfect blend of exfoliating particles.

FINAL THOUGHTS 

From my very first experience trying this mask, I was so impressed! I am rarely so quickly impressed by a product but this mask just delivers amazing results! From the first time I used it, I knew that this product was going to become a staple in my skincare routine. I am already planning on purchasing another tub of this mask. The glass-skin finish that this mask gives my skin is like a surreal dream! Never have I experience a skincare product quite like this. The hybrid between a mask, scrub, and a peel is truly the perfect hybrid product. It really gives you the benefit of using all three products, perfecting the skin. My skin just feels so refreshed, renewed, and healthy. If I could use this product every day, I would but you don't need to because the formula is so effective, you really only need to use it once a week. What I'm saying is, YOU NEED THIS, TODAY! This exfoliating mask will change your life! I'm not one to be this dramatic unless a product is actually phenomenal and this one is! I will be using this product for as long as they continue you to make it and you should too!
