Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask Review

[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] I’ve heard a great deal of hype about the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask for tired skin so I really wanted to see if it lived up to expectations. On first sight, it’s a bit of a rescue type of a mask, hence the Jet Lag title, although you can use it nightly if you need to. In fact, there are several ways to use it – and that’s where I have a bit of a problem –  as a daily moisturiser, an in-flight mask, a nightly mask or a quick 10 minute moisture boost. I am questioning whether it’s really a mask or it’s just a snappily named moisturiser and I’m thinking that this is a case of marketing meeting formula and deciding what will sell the best. There are a million moisturisers and considerably less Jet Lag Masks so it’s filling a gap. Also, tired skin? I’m not sure there is any particular definition for that.

Given its price point – £26 for the smaller (28ml) version and £49 for the (64ml) – which feels quite reasonable to me for the amount you get – if you are heading off long-haul and you tend to dry up on a flight, it’s very comfortable and skin soothing, so it would be ideal for that (as probably would your regular moisturiser). I tested it as per instructions on the box – for a ten minute TLC moisture boost.

The texture looks thick but feels light on the skin. It’s fragrance free, immediately cooling and sure enough, it did give my skin a feeling of being more hydrated and softer. You just need to blot your face afterwards with a (warm) damp cloth to take off any excess if you do a quickie, orrrrrr you could just work it in like a moisturiser! On the surface, the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask is a winner but on inspection, I’d prefer more clarity about what exactly it is. They’ve gone a very long and convoluted way to turn a perfectly pleasant moisturiser into something else. To my mind, a mask isn’t something you can use as a day to day moisturiser. Am I being pedantic? Other ingredients of note are Vitamin C, niacinamide and shea butter. The mask is HERE.
