REVIEW:Freeman Avocado & Oatmeal Facial Clay Mask

Good morning beauties,
I was working a overnight shift last night, then went to Ihop for some coffee and Nutella Crepes! But before I moisturize my lips and call it a day I wanted to stop by and give you all a quick review on something new I've tried this morning.
I have a MAJOR breakout on my face. Most people complain about breakouts in the summer, when they are sweating too much. I get breakouts when the cold weather comes around. So last night before work I made a quick stop at CVS to get some Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask. They did not have it! I guess they only carry the store brand of the green goodness! But I came across something else, and decided to give it a try. It was only $4.39 for a 6 fl. oz tube.

Freeman Avocado & Oatmeal Facial Clay Mask
Freeman claims that this is a rich clay mask, with added Oatmeal and Vitamin E, that it draws out excess oils and dirt, purges clogged pores and  leaves your skin clean and soft.

It does not instruct  how long to leave it on. I kept mine on for about 30 minutes. If you have dry skin, I would suggest to keep it on no longer than 20 minutes. It is green in color, glides on really smooth, and gives your skin a cool and tingly feeling (for some reason every time a product does that, I think its really sinking deep into my pores and working its magic). And although it is an Avocado & Oatmeal mask it almost gives off a banana like scent, which i thought was really weird. It dries fairly quickly and does feel very tight on skin.
I did not remove it with a damp washcloth. I always rather rinse off the masks I use and pat dry with a towel. I then follow with my moisturizer. It did leave my skin feeling clean and soft! I will do this at least twice a week from now on. This is definitely worth trying and is dirt cheap. At less than $5 it does what it claims. If you like Queen Helene you will probably like this as well.

my son said I'm his little, green monster lol
On the other note, I think that someone at my job started selling Avon products because last night they left a whole bunch of Avon booklets in the breakroom. Of course I had to take one. I have not used any Avon products probably since high school. I used to love their Bubble Gum Flavored Lip Balm. I recieved an eyeshadow quad from Avon last year for Christmas but I was not pleased with it. The colors were beautiful but for some reason made me look washed out. Not very pigmented either. But I looked through the book and found some interesting stuff I would like to try. Especially some stuff from the skin care line and lipsticks.
