I think this is one of those products you have to try to appreciate.

I know this product it marketed as a night face mask, but DO NOT use it on your face! One of the main ingredients in this mask is wheat germ. Wheat germ is rated a 5 on the comedogenic scale.

No matter how carefully I apply this stuff it always ends up irritating my eyes. It not an allergic reaction bc it does hydrate my skin without me breaking out or puffing up. This has been the only moisturizer that does this, and I even use an under eye cream so I don't understand why my eyes get so irritated with this.
