Silicone with flower water... You can have this effect with any oil-free silicone based moisturizer or mask.

HG moisturizer and primer. I have been using Sisley's Gel Flower Express Mask for a couple of months now and does exactly what it was created to do. The skin is healthy if it is hydrated. Dry skin cultivates acne and flare ups from eczema and other skin allergies.
I was surprised that you can use this product as a primer. The mask leaves the face supple, radiant and glowing. It makes the application of foundation effortless. It keeps the face hydrated all day long. It is currently spring season in NYC so I will have to update this review in the winter.
After cleaning my face I put this all over my face before I go to bed. Since the product is pricey, I make sure I don't get too much product on my face so I won't end up blotting it off with the tissue after 10-15 mins.
This product is value for money. I noticed great improvement in my skin and this pretty much took the place of all other moisturizers and serums that I used to give me the same effect.
If you are over the fence about trying the product, I highly recommend it. I have sensitive skin, I had no problems. The Gel Flower Express mask is my best purchase for the year so far!!!

I have used this product for about a year. Well, if you have nothing else to moisture your face, its ok. But, there are much cheaper and better products on the market. Its claimed to be good on flight product - sorry, did not helpt me much during the flight from Frankfurt to Kl.

I was introduced to this product by my mother, a self-proclaimed Sisley addict. I can say with certainty that after numerous applications this is the best hydration mask I have ever used. In fact, I often leave the mask on my face as a moisturizer, especially in the summer when I need a lighter touch. A small amount applied to fresh, clean skin will leave your complexion plump with moisture, with a reduction in fine lines and without any oiliness. A tube lasts a long time as only a small amount is needed. Well-worth the expense for those of all skin types.

I heard about this as it was recommended by Lisa Eldridge as one of the HG products for Long Haul flights. Despite having a horrifically oily t-zone, the skin on the rest of my face is dry, and gets really dehyrated when flying. I didn't want to spend £70 on a full size tube without testing it first, so I obtained a sample which I decanted into a small tub, allowing me to test it on a quite a few occasions. I've tried using this a number of different ways and can safely conclude that it is of minimal use for skin hydration. As a comparison, it is very slightly more hydrating than E45 moisturiser which is a joke when you consider the difference in cost per gramme. It does none of the things for my skin that Lisa Eldridge claims in her video, certainly. If you want a super hydrating cream, the best thing I've found to date is the Clarins Hydraquench Riche, which is £30 for a massive tub. It's much less expensive than the Sisley, but most importantly, the Clarins product is much more effective. I am still experimenting with other ultra-hyrating creams as well (Bioderma and others), but for now, I can safely say this Sisely product is of no particular use to me and I'm so glad I tried a sample first without purchasing the full size, otherwise I would have wasted £70 on a poor performing product.

This mask really plumps up and firms my skin. After using it my skin glows and feels soft and refreshed. I love using it before a big event or if I'm feeling a little tired. I find it works well when I leave on for 3-5 minutes and blot off the excess and also when I leave it on overnight. I feel like I have to ration my use because I want to make it last. This mask is also perfect after using a traditional drying clay mask because it restores moisture. I did take one lippie off for the price, but it won't stop me from repurchasing.

I have lots of sisley products that I bought in the best but just disappointed me. So I stopped trying sisley line. Until I got a sample of this product. I never used a masker because I'm afraid that maskers would just break out my sensitive oily/combination skin. But I checked the reviews and lots of people are saying that this is not a strong mask. So I tried it put it under my tinted moisturizer and surprised with the glowing result on my face. But then I've read on the reviews that you get more better result when you use it at night and wash your face the next day. So I did. I'm surprised how I looked rested with this product although I only had 6hrs sleep that night. It's expensive but if this gives wonders to my skin I will definitely purchase.

I was watching Lisa Eldridge's video and came to know about this mask. I have heard about Sisley for a long time but also know they are incredibly expensive so never dare to even try.
My skin has been quite dehydrated due to changing of weather here. Its winter time and my skin is playing up a bit. I got a sample over the counter and i am in love with this so purchased a travel size tube so i can try it a little longer and make sure my skin is happy with it.
The sad thing is yes my skin does love it. I have combo skin with rather oily tone, i don't really think it change my oil production but it does the hydration part really well, i can put the mask on and i can feel my face sucking up all the moisture and when the mask is dry its actually dry to touch as well. It feels and smell wonderful.
next morning i put my make up on as usual and it is just so smooth. especially my under eye area where sometimes when my skin is cr@p the concealer will crease big time. No creasing whatsoever and I am in love.
It is so expensive and i am waiting for the next pay day so i can get a tube of this.
it is really good, apart from the price.

My skin absolutely loves this mask. I tend to apply it to a clean face early evening and leave it on overnight, or all day on a lazy Sunday. Instantly after application my skin has a beautiful fresh, healthy glow and feels so soothed. I'm happy to go out in the evening with just this on my face and some concealer under my eyes. I've tried the Sisley Radiance Glow Express Mask several times and each time been left without any radiance...for me the Express Flower Gel is far superior and never fails to deliver a glow. Love the scent too.

A very effective mask. It has great results on my skin, makes it really soft and glowing. Of course it is VERY expensive, as all Sisley products, but it does hydrate, firm and tone my skin. I apply a thin layer before I go to bed (face and neck) , just a small quantity, and leave it all night as a night cream. Next morning the results are impressive, my face looks healthy and relaxed. It tends to make my skin a bit oily if I use it more than two times in a row. Great product and really long lasting as I use it as a night cream once or twice a week.

I'm kinda lazy so I've tried my fair share of leave on masks from various brands. This one is by far my favorite! I applied a thin layer before bed. It didn't feel like it was doing anything on my face while I had it on, and was slightly sticky. However the next morning, my face was literally glowing, and baby soft to the touch.

I'm writing this review 3 days after my last use, and my face still looks bright and dewy!


It might seem expensive, but you only need a very thin layer for it to work, so a little bit goes a long way.


I will definitely be repurchasing after I run out, but I suspect that this tube will last me at least 6 months.

Can anyone recommend me a great masque? Or something wonderful by this line? I want to try it, and this is the first thing I tried by Sisley, and it was NOTHING to write home about!! I was so excited to try this based on all the hype throughout these reviews!! So as I applied it, it being a light/gel type of texture, I left it on overnight, hoping to get the most radiant skin EVER, and when I removed it the next day.... NOTHING! Nothing interesting, nothing fabulous. I get better and more dramatic results from applying my Dior One Essential Serum on a daily basis! I've never spent this much money on a product and been so disenchanted with it. I'm beginning to wonder about the true efficacy of masks in general. I just don't know how effective they can be. And I have been trying some of the best! Like I said, if someone knows of something better, PM me PLEASE!! The only nice thing was that this calmed and cooled my irritated skin after having been using retin-A. It felt nice. That was about IT. I will not be re-purchasing.

one of my clients gave me a gift of sisley samples for christmas last year. i had never heard of the brand, so i just put them in my travel case and forgot about them.

recently, i ran out of moisturizer and saw that i had a sample of the express flower gel so i started using it every morning after washing my face. within three days i noticed a HUGE difference in my skin tone. my skin looked more hydrated and any semblance of wrinkles had disappeared. i was amazed.

i'm not someone that spends a great deal of money on any of my cosmetics. i usually buy oil of olay or alba and getting excited about a product is not in my nature. i was completely blown away when i found sisley online and realized how expensive the product was - i had no idea.

regardless of the price, i will buy this again!! especially since i live in chicago and the winters here are brutal. i recommend this to any one with dry skin.

This is a must-have. If there is any Sisley product that I would recommend to everyone, this is it.

I got several 15ml GWP tubes (the full size packaging contains 60ml) and several 4ml sample sachets.

This is supposed to be a moisturizing mask – you are to apply a thick layer of mask on your face, wait for a few minutes so that it sinks in and the wipe of the excess. I have oily, but very dehydrated skin and I usually apply it before sleeping and sleep the whole night with the mask on. The mask is a gel-like texture (very similar to the texture of eye-contour mask) and it spreads easily. At first it is a bit sticky, but until the morning the mask has sunk in.

The reason why I’m so thrilled with this mask is that it has excellent regenerating, hydrating and calming properties. I’m using this only on nights when I know that I will get less than 5 hours of sleep. If I’m having a mask during the night, I look as if I had a whole night sleep and not barely 3 or 4 hours.

I’m using it only once or twice per week, so I cannot comment whether it would lose effectiveness with daily use.

The mask is rose scented. Although their effectivness was the same, I must note that the sachet sample of this mask had slightly different scent than the GWP tube (I got both from a reputable store, so I know that it’s not a fake). The sample sachet had very strong, old-fashioned rose scent which bothered me (I usually don’t have problems with strong fragrance)and sometimes it still lingered in the morning.The GWP tube, on the other hand, had a very subtle rose scent.

I’ll definitely repurchase it.

Inefective, overpriced: avoid it. There are maska that are much better and cheaper (NARS and Laura Mercier). I think that InStyle reviews are not impartial as they suggest, but brands like this pay tons of money to sponsor their rather mediocre and overpriced products. It does not do anything, it leaves the skin poorly moisturised and runs out very quickly.

Very expensive mask, £70 in selfridges UK, and the size is quite small too. I bought this after reading the great reviews here, as my face is dry and dehydrated I am always looking out for great moisturising face masks. Really, after the reviews i was expecting this to be some kind of miracle product, but it just did nothing for me. I have used it around 5 times now, always 'giving it one more chance' because for the money i cannot bear to throw it out and i cannot return it as i dont have the receipt anymore. It makes my skin soft and moisturised for 5 mins or so then its how it was at the beginning. I dont get any glow after taking it off and doing my make up, i get more glow without it at all. Dior hydraction is really good for me and about 1/3 of the price...im really disappointed in this... :(

I got a sample of this from a friend in Vegas when she saw my skin had bumps and was red from irritation and dryness. She said I have to try to put this on at night after cleansing my face and just sleep on it without putting other products on my face. I was skeptical about this in the beginning but I woke up with less irritation and less dry patches. I kept using it every day in Vegas (even using it at daytime without make up on) and my skin went back to normal after 3 days of consecutive use. I used it on my trip back to my country on long haul flights and I can happily say that it keeps my skin supple and moisturized. Not even a single bump on my face after my trip. And usually I got bumps on my face after long trips and change of weather. I bought it right away after my sample finished.
Yesterday I had a long day at work and I had to meet my boyfriend for dinner. I washed my face and put a thin layer of this mask on and just leave it on my skin to absorb. Then right before I met him, I dabbed little concealer on my undereyes. He said I didn't look like someone who just had a long day at work because I looked glowing. He asked whether I put on foundation to hide my tired skin and I said no foundation or powder whatsoever. Just a little concealer under my eyes. I have to say this mask does wonder. The price is expensive for such a small tube but if gives me glowy flawless moisturized skin, I don't mind paying it.
