Comfort Zone ‘Hydramemory’ Face Mask Review

Comfort Zone comes as the cosmetics division of Davines S.P.A, founded in Italy by the Bollati family and now available worldwide. Popular with top hotels such as The Berkeley, Comfort Zone offers spa-quality products to fit in with your busy lifestyle, delivering a ‘sublime experience for the senses’. With a range of face, body, sun, man, ambience and sacred nature products, there’s a wide selection to choose from – there’s something for all whether it be a treat for yourself, your partner or your friend. Comfort Zone’s Hydramemory range comes under their facial skincare category, it’s a specific system to offer deep hydration and restore hydro-lipidic balance, inspired by the desert.

Hydrolipidic: The skin has a ‘hydrolipidic barrier’ or ‘film’ which maintains moisture and protects entry against invasive germs. Taking care of the hydrolipidic barrier is vital for keeping the skin supple and moisturised; it can be cared for with deep-moisturising creams and masks.

A core product of the range which can be used alone is the ‘Hydramemory’ mask; key ingredients such as trehalose and baobab extract help to protect the hydrolipidic barrier and infuse it with moisture.

PRICE: £27.95/50ml – I found it for £19.76 on SalonSkincare.co.uk

AVAILABILITY: SalonSkincare.co.uk, Comfort Zone spas (tel: 01827 280 080), www.comfortzoneskincare.com

CLAIMS: ‘Rich mask with active ingredients which restore skin compactness and a deep hydration’ – product packaging

PRODUCT: The spa-inspired packaging flows well with the company ethos, the calming blue and easy-use tube make for a relaxing experience from the offset. Clear instructions make using the mask a dream, and an inclusive information leaflet gives you something to read whilst you lye back and wait for the mask to sink in.

The formula is a creme-consistency, it glides over the skin and takes around ten minutes to drink into the skin. A walnut sized amount will allow for full-face coverage, but you can use a smaller amount to target specifically dry or dehydrated areas if you so wish. The aim of the mask is to give a surge of moisture, so you shouldn’t get any tight feeling which comes classic to clay-based masks, instead your skin will feel cooled and relaxed.
Once the mask has sunk completely into the skin a gentle film of moisture remains, smooth this away with a flannel to instantly reveal plumped and baby-soft skin. The results are incredible, after just one use skin feels smoother than ever before, any dry areas are completely banished. With repeated use the noticeable effects are clear, skin remains smoothed and plumped throughout the week if used two times a week, it’s ten minutes which fits comfortably into any busy day.

RATING: 10/10 – This mask has a high price, making it a more luxurious item – if it’s something out of your usual price range it sits well as a treat. I’m thoroughly impressed with the results, my skin has never been so soft following a moisture mask and the results last a good few days; for me, I will be repurchasing once the tube runs dry.
