Endota is one of those brands you can’t help but love, due in large part to their commitment to loving the environment and loving yourself. Their whole philosophy is inspiring, and that’s why I was excited to test their Glycolic Polishing Mask (RRP $70 for 100mL), which promised to ‘reveal a radiant complexion’. It didn’t disappoint.

A small amount of the delightfully-scented mask rubbed circularly into my face and neck proved a calming experience in itself. The mask is very finely granulated and feels natural, which is always a plus for products you’re going to keep on your face for a while. The idea with the mask is to gently massage onto skin, leave for 10-15 minutes, and then rinse off. The first two times I used the mask, I got distracted and washed it off after about 30 minutes. With other, chemically-heavy masks, this may result in a tingling or burning sensation, but the Endota Glycolic Polishing Mask just stayed put until I was ready. Again, calm.
Once rinsed off, my face was plump and glowing. It’s definitely something I’ll use before an event, or failing that, at least once a week. A little on the expensive side for a mask, I think the limited need for use, plus the ethos you get via packaging and brand support, makes it worth the splurge.
They say: ‘Shea butter and aloe vera nourish and rebalance skin’s ph. Clays detoxify by absorbing impurities, controlling excess oil and renewing your skin from deep within, leaving skin glowing with vitality. Jojoba oil beads offer effective, gentle exfoliation.’ And I agree.
Quietly, I can’t wait to head to an Endota Spa in Sydney and test the Glycolic Polishing Mask in the hands of a spa therapist. It’s added to my to-do list!
