I was really excited to be chosen to review this product and had to try it as soon as I'd unpacked it from the courier. It came in a gorgeous gold tub and was easy to open. The cream felt smooth in my fingers and glided on to my skin easily. It was a light consistency and I didnt have to use much to get a full face mask going. The instructions said to leave for around 15mins, so I set the timer and continued what I had been doing earlier. My face did feel a little tingly and hot during this time but not enough for me to need to wash it off before my timer had gone off. When my time was up I rinsed it off with warm water and my skin felt lovely and smooth. My cheeks looked a little red but my face felt and looked fresh and definately felt hydrated. I've used this product several times over the course of the trial period and each time the tingling sensation I got seems to be less. Its a lovely mask, I have yet to see my fine lines deminish so I'm hoping the more I use it should see that happening. I am unsure of the price of this product (or where I can get it from), but Im picking it will be quite high-end. However, for a product that would last a long time and actually do what it says it will do, I think I would buy it.

Tips: Make sure your face is clean before you use it. The more you use it the better result you should get. :-)
Where do i buy more?!. I have trailed this product over the past 2 weeks and lets just say its now part of my weekly skincare routine.... i am obsessed!.
the mask has a very light honey/rose like smell which is quite pleasant and none invasive. The mask itself has a consistency of a thick creamy moisturizer and is super easy to apply as it warms up to your skin . You also receive a little spatula for application which would be handy for people with longer nails.
when you first apply the mask within a few minutes you feel a cold tingling sensation but it is comfortable enough to not leave you feeling irritated. As the mask dries into your skin the tingling sensation does fade and your skin starts feeling a little firmer.
when removing the mask i had no redness and my skin was instantly smoother and more plump looking. Since using this product a few more times my skin is looking a lot more radiant and fine lines are defiantly less visible.
the packaging is very luxurious looking. The only down fall would be the plastic packaging is quite bulky and heavy . If your someone like me who takes absolutely everything you can think of in your beauty bag when travelling overseas it maybe better for you to depot some of this product. Also the product itself has no printed instructions. The information is only on the box. But this does not discourage me from loving this product.
Tips: make sure you do a test patch on your hand before applying as the tingly sensation maybe be to much for sensitive skin. Wash your face before hand for maximum results follow up with a oil or moisturizer ( i use both). this feels amazing!
I was invited to review the ** Alpine Silk Bee Venom Nourishing Face Mask** .
What a fantastic face mask this one is , It got me by surprise , I have usually used face masks In the past ,this one is one of the best I have tried hands down.
At first I thought this look more like a facial cream than a facial mask , is soft ,rich,smells great ,nice consistency it did what it said leave my face soft ,plumped ,it feel fresh , you feel your skin tighten and firm .
Also it leaves a cool sensation after you wash it off .. Contain Vitamins A & E New Zealand Manuka Honey and also is paraben free
Highly Recommend to try it
Tips: Wash your face before applying ,leave it for 15 minutes and wash it off,it does feel very cool when you applying ,also do a Patch test before use if you unsure you are allergic to honey products .
I know I am placing my review early but I am so impressed with it I thought I would do it now. Upon application it made my skin tingle and once washed off left it feeling really refreshed and soft. What I love about it is it does help reduce the appearance of fine lines!! Even my husband commented "it looks like it has pulled some of your wrinkles out!!" As I am in my late 40's discovering a product like this is brilliant. I will definitely be purchasing this in future though the size of the pot is such that I think it will last a while which is another bonus!! The only thing I am unsure of is how often you can use this. It doesn't state whether it can be used daily or if it should be less often. Thank you very much for the opportunity to trial this.
Tips: If you have long hair definitely pull it out the way whilst the mask is on, because as it dries your hair will love to stick to it.
Just the idea of putting bee venom on my face intrigued me! I get a couple of bee stings a summer, so knew I wasn't overly allergic to bee products. And my skin is just in the over 50's bracket now, so can always do with help.
Alpine Skin Bee Venom Nourishing Face Mask seemed the perfect fit and claimed to plump skin, reducing fine lines, act as a natural exfoliator, enable my skin to stretch and be elastic and finally help in cell renewal. Big call.
I undertook a patch test just in case. I wasn't sure how often you can use the product, as this isn't stated anywhere other than use "regularly", so undertook a once a day for a week trial. It was a nice regime to get into while relaxing at the end of the day.
What I thought was going to be your typical large container with a small amount of product, turned out to be a generous 50g of face mask. Upon opening the a box, a little spatula fell out ....I mean tiny little. I didn't actually use it - instead using washed fingers to apply a layer all over my face (didn't actually go as far down as my neck) after washing with my normal product.
Possibly I went a little too close to my eyes, as they did water a little which was surprising, so kept that knowledge on board for next time I applied. The mask had a cold tingly feeling as I applied, which was a refreshing feeling to the skin.
As the fifteen minutes passed, the mask soaked into the skin and my skin became a little tighter. Washing off with warm water was an easy process.
Immediately after the first use my skin did feel softer but I was keen to see if there was a long term effect. I am glad to say, after using for seven days, my skin is definitely more moisturised and plumper than before. A small overly dry patch I monitored, has significantly improved in moisture. I truly believe my skin overall appearance has improved with use of this mask on a daily basis.
Although Alpine Silk Bee Venom Nourishing Face Mask is proudly made in New Zealand, and I would like to continue using it, I may need to reduce usage frequency for budget reasons. A quick online search shows prices range from $68.95 full retail price to $33.00 duty free (great time to stock up!)
Truly a great way to Beeeeeeeeee Beautiful
Tips: Use your fingers to apply (not to close to the eye area). I really don't think the tiny spatula is much use and alpine Silk don't need to provide it.
Love love love the packaging it was like a golden orb. Probably the most lovely skincare packaging i've ever seen.
Never used a Bee Venom product before so I was very intrigued.
Product smell very slightly florally which was pleasant and now overpowering.
I scooped out a decent amount it has the consistency of thick whipped cream.
I left it on for about 15 minutes and after about 10 minutes your skin gets this gorgeous 'tingle' going on.
I washed it off and my skin just felt amazing, plumped and glowing.
Love love loved it!
I was asked to review this mask which was a nice surprise, the mask came in an attractive gold and white box. Inside the box was a lovely gold coloured round pot, with a generous 50g amount of product. The consistency is thick and creamy. I applied a small amount of this white creamy mask to the top of my hand to test for any allergic reaction first, it was fine, just a tingling feeling. I then applied a light covering of cream over my face using my fingers and left on for 15 minutes. Not much of a perfume, didn't notice smell after a few minutes. The price is not that cheap, but one pot will last a long time because you don't need to slather it on. I noticed a tingling feeling almost as soon as I applied the mask. I removed the mask with warm water and makeup remover wipes. My skin felt softer but tighter and no breakouts or rash which was good. I would reccomend this mask to use twice weekly as a pick me up for tired looking skin. Made in NZ with Manuka Honey, Collagen and vitamins A and E and paraben free, lovely as a gift or treat yourself.
Tips: Patch test first and apply sparingly for first time.
I absolutely love the packaging of this product, it’s like a golden orb, I have no other products that look this lovely. Next up is smell, very mild and absolutely nothing offensive about the product whatsoever.
As for the product itself, it smoothes on nicely and you don’t need a lot of it. There’s a definite “zingy” sensation after application, which abates after the 15 minutes I left it on for. It dries to a natural skin colour, so no hesitation opening the door to visitors with a ghostly white or other coloured face. I’m a shocker for applying products too close to my eyes, some products will give a very instant stinging sensation, but not the case here. Washes off easily. I did find my skin felt very dry afterwards and did need to apply a toner and a good night cream afterwards to make my skin feel hydrated again. But in the morning my complexion looked lovely and my skin felt fabulously nourished.
Would I use again? Definately, I’ve used it a number of times now and will continue to do so until the sample runs out.
Give it a try! Nothing to lose, and perhaps you’ll like it as much as I do.
Bee venom is light creamy. It was easy to apply using the applicator but it is too small though. Fragrance is pleasant not overpowering. I just don't like the mentol smell when washing it off because it irritates my eyes so I figured that I need to apply it thinly. I need a lot for coverage but i need to use it sparingly because its not cheap.Packaging is cool. Its bee venom and the box is reflective of the product. I like the gold colour and the round shape container. I felt skin tightness after using it and its a sign for me that its working. Its an effort on my part to establish a routine to look after myself esp my face and skin. But I believe that natural products are the best products and this product will be part of my beauty routine. Overall, I will recommend this to a friend. Thank you for the trial.
I've heard about how effective Bee Venom face masks, so was excited to give it a try. The golden ball it was packaged made it seem very lux, and a bit mysterious. I found it a bit difficult to read the print on the box and especially on the container. It would have been helpful to have more specific guidance about how frequently to use the mask.
I found the fragrance of the mask pleasant and subtle. The texture was smooth and creamy, and the first time I used it I found the stinging sensation intense but tolerable. Subsequent applications have still tingled, but not to the same intensity.
I decided to use it every second night initially. Since using this product, I've noticed my skin appears smoother and glowing. I've also been complimented about how radiant my skin is.
The price point of this product is on the dearer side for me, but I think that it's a worthwhile investment.
Tips: I would suggest initially using this product every second night for the first week or two, and then maybe once or twice a week going forward.
