This mask gave me the worst cystic acne, it took so much time to recover. Never ever touch it again.

this is an excellent masque for sensitive skin. I use it once a week in the morning after my daily cleaning routine. It must be left on 20 minutes as per instructions and it leaves my skin feeling soft hydrated and incredibly healthy. have used it on and off for years. its a classic and there's a reason :)

Really great mask!! It calms down the skin really nice and gives a beautiful glow and makes the skin look really healthy and fresh. I've only tested this four times but I'm def. buying it when I go to the Sisley counter again.

HG!!! Healing, soothing and luxurious! This is my staple mask. I have rosacea and this calms the redness, softens, hydrates and deep cleans. It's not a very "active" mask, its perfect for sensitive skin. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

This is one of the best masks I have ever used. It calms down red, irritated skin, especially in the winter. Sensitive skin doesn't itch anymore and all the redness is gone after 20 minutes, skin feels and looks relaxed. Can even be used under the eye area. Product is expensive (approx 70 euro) but comes in a 60 ml tube, with a separate safety cap. Consistency is medium thick with a nice soft fragance. Mask can be taken off with a cloth with warm water, to be followed with lotion.

Nothing special about this product. Nothing changes (redness, roughness), or relaxing i cant feel. Its texture likes clay n soft, natural smell. Thats the only good thing bout this product. Way too expensive for a very normal mask. I do agree with the reviewer Condesadepitimini, Sisley is overrated. Dont waste ur money, its not that good as its claimed.

This in general is a good mask with a nice smell. I like the thick texture and that it's natural. White and simple is also an advantage. I really like that it's calming and soft, does make it feel as if you're in SPA at home, very relaxing. Skin is not oily afterwards and completely clean. It does tend to be a tiny bit tight, but I believe it's due to the fact that this mask decreases pores size. But you know, even considering all these positive effects it's not enough. I expected more. This is not enough to justify the price. So in the overall it's quite average. I believe there are similar products at a much less painful price. So I wouldn't personally buy it.

i'm not sure about this product. i didn't see any particular effect after using a few sample sachets of it previously. it's not very hydrating and my skin usually requires stronger purifying clay masks. didn't help the (more or less) permanent redness on my cheeks either. but my skin is suuuuuper sensitive/irritated now so if i'm desperate i might just give it another try and see.

As I often say, Sisley is overpriced, overrated and overestimated!
That said, yes, Sisley carry good products (some excellent) but not worth the insane amount of money they ask you for them.
I have tried almost the entire line - as I have an overly kind friend who is a BA in a very posh perfumery, and refills me with loads of high end products (I know ...lucky me!) so that's the way I know thoroughly the entire Sisley line!

Masque Givre (Givre in French is rim, frost...this because it is a thick, fresh matt white paste that you need to apply generously over face and neck) is an average/OK mask: it soothes iritated or tired skin, deep cleanses, and you are left with a plumped, rested skin.
Contrarily to the other Sisley products, that have a divine, herbal scent, this masks has an indefinite odour that is almost on the annoying side.
I tend to keep on this mask less than recommended because of the smell (yes, I am very sensitive to scents & smells in general!).
Another negative is the outrageous price...
There is better out there for a fraction of the price.

This is a nice mask, but I could not see big diffrences on my skin even after using up one tube. It soothes redness (for a short term), and smells heavenly, but my dry and sensitive skin remained the same with the regular use. I would recommend to try a sample before purchasing.

Oh, this mask is sort of complicated for me. You have to leave it for 20 minutes -- too long for me, ha ha. It cleanses skin and renews a radiance to some extent but not a big deal (haven't noticed a huge effect!). It is for dry and sensitive skin and you can use it around the eyes too, but my skin sometimes stays just a tad dry after it. And no, I have no time to use also a moisturizing mask after it! I won't be buying it again.

I purchased the buffing cream and was given a sample of this mask to try. You are supposed to leave the mask on for twenty minutes, but after just ten my eyes burned so badly that I had to remove it. I did not have the product close to my eyes. I would not purchase this product.

I think this is a very unique product! It deep cleans, it calms down redness and make pores smaller. The hydrating effect is not great, but that's not where you buy it for. In my life i have never luck with masks. They all seem to do nothing. Maybe because my skin is extremely spoiled... In either way: this one makes a difference, so i will surely buy again. When skin is stressed and i want some relief, this is it. Great Sisley product!

This is great, clam my redness straight whenever i have my harsh acne treatment!
it does not break me out, not sure about the clogging tho 'cos it takes time to see, but i don't think there should be a problem since u only leave it on 20 mins then rinse it off

will repurchase

i got a few sample packets of this and i use this on my face including my eyes at least twice a week and in a month's time i noticed obvious results. firstly, i have less breakouts, less of the tiny zits, my pores are smaller now and my skintone is much more even tone. i use the botanical face gel in the morning, then ecological compound, all day all year day care and at night after removing mu and washing with shu cleansing water i put this on for 20 -30 minutes. remove with wet sponge and rinse and then just ecological compound with eye cream. the next morning i wake up to a great face! this, together with a balanced diet i look like i did when i was 25! i would most probably purchase the full sized tube when i get the chance and a lot of $$.*update* I up the rating to a 5. i look forward to using it everytime and sometimes i use it everyday and it's so convenient becaause it can be used around the eyes and only so little is needed and it can be left on for hours as it doesnt dry off, perfect the busy week nights.

Great product by sisley! I have very sensitive skin and prone to slight acne. This mask soothes my skin and after every use, my skin is brighter and my skin is less prone to break-outs. My pores have shrink too and now my facial last longer. Will definitely repurchase!

This is a wonderful deep cleansing mask. It doesn't make my skin tight and uncomfortable after being rinsed off; instead, my skin feels soothed and calmed. It seems to have the ability to suck impurities out of pores, unlike many other masks which claim to do so but fail, cos my skin looks clear with smaller pores after using it everytime. Not sure if it will really tighten my pores in the long run. I have been having it for a few months but didn't use it often because I am lazy (I really need to change that!). Dry skin people would probably love this mask too. It is difficult to find a mask that cleanses while hydrates drier skins. Perhaps that's one of the reasons it is so expensive in addition to the facts that it's Sisley and supposed to have lots of rare botanical ingredients? It's literally the most expensive (and best) mask I have ever bought (NZ$85 from Strawberrynet). Would probably buy it again at Duty Free if I can't find anything as good. However, I wouldn't spend my money on other Sisley products cos they usually contain nasty ingredients such as paraffinum liquidum and are not worth that much.

Tried a sample and loved it! The smell and consistency is wonderful. It's creamy and hydrating and it cleans a bit as well. Would probably purchase.
