I've been smoothing the Alpine Silk Rosehip Recovery Face Mask per the instructions (generously and as evenly as possible) over my face and neck after cleansing before relaxing in the bath for 15 min a couple of times per week. The product smells pleasantly of rose, is cold to apply and my skin felt sensitive to it at first. I find it largely absorbs but doesn't leave my skin feeling tight or oily, just nourished. When you rinse it off a facecloth is definitely required rather than just water and a dry towel as it is VERY moisturising. I've been following the mask up with a couple of drops of rosehip oil as moisturiser and my skin does feel soothed and smoother.

Reviews
Tips: Don't judge it by it's packaging! The box and pink plastic container with a rose image on it reminded me of things I see in the back of my grandmothers bathroom cupboard.
I enjoyed this rose scented face mask.
It soaked into my skin and I really felt like I'd been intensely hydrated. I would only use this at night, its very heavy, and needs time to absorb.
My skin feels firm the morning after use and feels very soft.
I've looked for stockists online but can't find any - price dependent I would be interested in repurchasing!
Tips: You don't need much - a medium-thick layer will soak in over night!
This feels like a really thick moisturiser that doesn't get absorbed (which is fine as it is a mask that you wash off).
It smells lovely and feels silky, and when I washed it off after 20 mins my skin definitely felt softer after only one use.
I usually use chemical exfoliant masks (i.e. glycolic) so it was nice to treat my skin to something moisturising for a change. I'll definitely use this again to treat my skin and it's nice to know it has natural ingredients.
Tips: It does harden a little bit so you'll need a washcloth to rinse it off.
I've tried a lot of hydrating/recovery face masks. A LOT. And this one didn't stand out at all.
Yes, it felt nice and silky upon application. And I'm stoked that there is plenty of product to last a long time. But it really didn't do anything special.
I felt moderately moisturised after rinsing it off, but because you wash it off your face you ultimately sill have to apply your usual moisturiser afterwards. With sheet masks, you can pat any excess product into your skin and keep benefiting from it overnight.
The ingredients are outstanding, except for the addition of menthol. Menthol is usually added to give you a tingling sensation, making you think 'ooh this product must be working!' But if you've got sensitive skin, this will be really irritating.
Overall, I'm always thrilled to support NZ made brands, but I won't be repurchasing sadly.
I loved this, it's my first face mask that comes in the cream form and it was so refreshing to put on my face. I loved the smell and it felt luxurious on my face. After I washed it off my skin was so smooth and feeling fresh and I also love how its paraben free so it isn't doing anything nasty to my hormones. I would repurchase the alpine silk rosehip facemask for sure!
Luxurious. Pampered. Dreamy.
This face mask is now one of my absolute favourites! Easily affordable, compact and sturdy packaging, easy to use, easy to love!
I love the rose scent as ive stated in other reviews because of how it makes me feel, but its easy to over kill. This does not! I was a bit skeptical because it is a face mask with rose and i dont usually go for that type because im worried the scent will be too strong and give me a headache, but this shot down any doubts i had! The scent is light and airy, not too strong but just enough that it still makes me feel calm, relaxed and snug.
i apply after cleansing and exfoliating and apply the rest of my skincare afterwards to enhance results. I use a foundation brush to apply, i scoop out what i want to use and apply straight to the head from my forehead down to my chin and leave on for 15-20mins. Whilst its on i do chores as its a creamy smooth texture so it stays on my face while i move about.
I find the results are immediate as most mask results are, but with this, the supple soft after glow i get lasts well into the next day. I cant stop touching my face! (I know, rookie mistake) but my face literally feels like a soft silk pillow case and my son isnt bothered by the smell it leaves which is really important to me when it cones to my skincare so 5 kisses for being baby friendly! I havent yet noticed anything with anti ageing but im sure that is to come as i can see how it contributes to that.
I recommend for nights where you just want to wind down and relax. This is a mask you would use to help softer smooth skin and would reccomend using the night before a day trip out and about, daily event, event with pictures because your skin will glow!
Tips: Apply evenly to the face using a mask brush/foundation brush. Use the night before an event for gowing selfies and pictures!
I was lucky enough to be selected for the trial team. The mask comes in a white plastic tub which doesn't feel the most luxurious. It is white and has the texture of the thick moisturiser and is faintly rose-scented. It does moisturise but I feel it leaves a film which I'm not a huge fan of. I would continue using it, but probably won't repurchase.
This face mask consistancy very much resembles a thick face cream. I applied it very afternoon and left for 20 mins. Once removed my skin did feel like there was residue on the surface but was very smooth to the touch and my face looked very subtle and less red. I would continue to use this product as I'm always a fan of a good moisturising face mask.
This literally looks and smell like a grandma. I think(?) it’s good but I have only been able to use it 3 times. The screw lid opens to reveal a lift- pad to keep product in which I liked. The mask looks exactly like moisturiser and it feels weird putting it on like a mask. It soaks into your skin and after 20 mins it’s almost see through. Once washed off your face does feel extremely soft but also firm and redness has gone down... which is probably they one factor why I like this mask. Other than this result I have not noticed anything else I have really loved. I tried looking online at the price point as the packaging looks extremely cheap and I was nervous to let it sit on my skin for 20 mins. It is a nice ‘pamper’ addition and does give instant result so I give it a 3/5.
Tips: I did experience tingling on my face when applied- given that I have extremely sensitive skin. It only lasted for a minute and there was no sign of allergic reaction when taken off.
This mask was a nice texture and could be applied easily to the face. After 15min or so it was dry but I could feel the moisture while rinsing it off. I put this on after cleansing at night, and my skin must have been quite sensitive as it stung a little at first. But that went away quite quickly. My skin felt hydrated and nourished.
