Wild Ferns Bee Venom Face Mask Review

The small glass jar is one of the fancier face mask products I own. The lid is lightweight and easily open/closes. While the product is small looking, a little goes a long way.

The product is white with a thick creamy consistency, and is easy to apply and smooth out. The instructions are to apply an even layer, leave for 20 minutes and wash off. I used this product at the beginning of my shower/bath (night time) on a freshly cleaned face.

While the mask is applied, there is an active cooling sensation which I found pleasant. I wouldn't say stinging as it didn't hurt, just a sensation that something is working (oh-my-god-bee-venom-is-on-my-face!). The mask doesn't dry though, and I used a face cleanser to remove it as it doesn't wash off with just water.

After a week of using the product, I found my skin was soft to touch and smooth.

I wanted to like this product as it's one of the few face masks I've found that you can use daily, however, on my combination/dehydrated skin, I had white heads pop up each morning because it was too thick and heavy for my skin.

At first sniff, I liked the soft powdery floral scent, however, after a week using it (and leaving it on for 20 minutes each time) I find the scent too purfumey and unpleasant. Reminds me of something my grandmother would use.

While the glass jar is nice, I find it too dangerous to use while in the bath/shower which is where I prefer to apply a face mask.

Before using the product, I did a test patch (as per the instructions) on my inner arm with no reaction. Product is not recommended for those who are allergic to bee stings.

This gorgeous package arrived 10 days ago so I wanted to take the most amount of time to trial before placing the review. It is a 50g tub of Bee Venom Face Mask product presented absolutely perfectly. The tub itself is just as divine. When you open the lid you are presented with an assortment of aromas which of course make up the product, Peppermint is the first smell that comes to mind, however it is not an overwhelming one. The product is very thick but glides or feels so smooth when you rub between your fingers. OK, so down to the review of using this on my face. I have to admit I am not one to ever do a face mask so this was an absolute first for me. The first thing I noticed was the lack of information available (also via the wildferns website) as to exactly how much of the product should be used when applying to the face area. The directions simply state 'apply evenly to face', so for someone who was a first timer I found these instructions not very helpful. Inserting the words 'sparingly' or 'generously' would have been helpful. As I wasn't too sure how much product to use exactly I went for the 'generous' size amount. To apply I used my fingers, started from my forehead and worked my way down to the chin area. Again, perhaps as this was my first time applying a face mask cream, I found this process a tad awkward for the first couple of times. Initially, to apply evenly took a good five minutes, however by the end of the trial period I had this 'art' down to one minute. So the feeling/sensation once applied is amazing! You immediately feel a strong coldness sensation which lasts pretty much until you rinse off. The smell is just gorgeous. This product is more like a face moisturiser as opposed to a face mask (I thought a face mask was something you apply to your face then peel off). The product is to be left on the face for 20 minutes before rinsing off. The entire time it is on your face you can smell the sweet scents, even after rinsing off the smell still remains for hours. Did I think it does what is stated? Not for me. My skin is no softer or smoother, and has no new radiant appearance. There is no extra firmness or plumpness either :( Finally, after ten days of use, the tub is near empty. It does state quite clearly that 'after longer use more noticeable results will be achieved'. I could not afford to spend $38/$39 every fortnight. I thank Beauty Review for allowing me the opportunity to trial this product. XX

The packaging was lovely. I like glass and this came in a glass jar. The product was dreamy creamy consistancy the smell was nice though a little perfumey for my liking but hey who cares the stuff is magic and it works a treat. I gave it a week using every day and my skin looks great and feels wonderful.

Lovely product - beautiful smell, sheer luxury in a jar. Stunning packaging at an affordable price. Easy to apply and makes my skin feel really soft - good moisturising qualities. I don't have the time to apply it for twenty minutes at a time on a daily basis though, so that would be the only down side for me - but hoping it will do its magic even if applied less frequently. I would recommend this to all ladies who want to plump up their skins and improve collagen and elastin production.

Holy amazeballs, this mask feels amazing, so much so that once I had it on I really didn’t want to take it off.

My first impression of this mask was when I took it out of its box, it looked so luxurious, you know like those lovely bathroom products you would expect to see in a really expensive hotel or spa resort. It is in such a gorgeous glass jar and the packaging is just adorable.

When I took off the lid, I was hit with such pleasant smells, I think it may have been the honey that I could smell. Its not overly strong but it smells so nice, I couldn’t wait to put it on.

The formula is just lovely, so soft and silky, and it glided on so smoothly onto my face. I got such a warm sensation when I was applying it and my whole face felt all fuzzy and warm all over. It probably has to be the most enjoyable mask I’ve used so far. I left it on for probably longer than 20 minutes because I had to force myself to wash it off. It felt nice and soft once I had rinsed it off and my face felt super soft and clean. And it looked clearer too, great results from such a small jar. This may just be my Holy Grail mask.

Just love this mask used for 3 days so far my skin feels so soft and skin looks healthy too. Smells really nice. Easy to use. definitely going to use everyday.
