'Made a huge difference in my skin': Shoppers love this anti-aging pumpkin mask — and it's on sale for $13

It's time to exfoliate and brighten your skin, especially since winter tends to make the 'dermis dull and dry. If you're feeling a bit flaky and uneven from the onset of the cold weather months, the Andalou Naturals Pumpkin Honey Glycolic Brightening Mask is here to soothe your skin! And, better yet, it's on sale right now for just $13.

Aside from the sweet pumpkin scent, everyone's favorite gourd packs an impressive amount of beauty benefits. Pumpkin is naturally rich in anti-aging Vitamin A (also seen on many skin-care labels as retinol) and helps to encourage healthy cell renewal.

Anti-aging pumpkin, nourishing honey and exfoliating glycolic acid combine in this mask to smooth and brighten your complexion.

Why is this a good deal?

Professional facial peels and treatments can send you back quite the pretty penny, depending on the results you're hoping to get. Plus, products like the similarly-themed Peter Thomas Roth Pumpkin Enzyme Mask are also much more of a cost commitment than this pumpkin honey mask — and it's always a good idea to test out any skincare product a bit before fully diving in. Who wants to drop over $40 just to realize the results are a little too intense for frequent use? Nah, we suggest sticking with this wonder-worker from Andalou Naturals, at least initially!

Why do I need this?

The Andalou Naturals mask combines powerhouse pumpkin with powerful glycolic acid to slough off dull skin cells and leave your skin looking smooth and fresh. It also contains nourishing manuka honey to keep your skin feeling soft. You can feel especially good about slathering this on your face, as the ingredients are all hypoallergenic, organic, vegetarian, and cruelty-free.

When you’re ready to try this out, be sure to start with a clean slate. Remove any makeup or debris from the day with a makeup wipe or your makeup remover of choice. (We love DHC’s Deep Cleansing Oil for this step.) Next, a once-over with a gentle cleanser, dry completely and then apply a thin layer of the mask. (Be sure to avoid the eye area.) Leave on for 15–20 minutes, then rinse with cool water. Repeat twice a week to get softer, smoother skin.

What reviewers say

Both festive and effective, this mask has been a big hit, both with the experts on our team and with devoted shoppers — in fact, nearly 4,000 Amazon reviewers have given the mask a perfect five-star rating. “It has a rich, luxurious feel on the skin and smells wonderful,” one reviewer noted. “This stuff is affordable, smells and FEELS like tingly magic, and quickly exfoliates, renews and refreshes my skin,” added another.

One fan even dubbed it the “best chemical exfoliator ever” and another said it’s their “holy grail.”

Though many adore the tingly feeling, some do note that it might not be optimal for super-sensitive skin, despite its effectiveness: The first time I used this I was a bit concerned because it burned at first, but that is just because I have never used a glycolic mask before, and it is normal to burn 5-10 minutes with it," noted a fan. "I noticed immediately that it had made a huge difference in my skin!!! Now I will never go without this product!"

It’s safe to say we’ll all be taking some time for a little at-home spa TLC, thanks to Andalou Naturals!

Treat yourself to an at-home spa day with this brightening mask.
