Eve and Mabsy told me about this lovely line some time ago, and I have been wanting to try Montagne Jennesse products for a while, but have never seen them in stores. Montagne Jennesse is a natural line, and you can buy them in the drugstore of all places, if you live in the U.S. I got 3 of them on sale for about $5 or something U.S. dollars! They are sold in little packets, and will last 2-3 uses if you store the opened packet in a ziplock bag.
Ok now for the review. I had tried the mud pack, and wasn't all that impressed. But i  the sauna masque which is a self heating therapy clay. It actually is warm right out of the packet as soon as it touches skin  and it is a really nice comforting type of warm *kinda like snuggling under a comforter or blanket fresh out of the dryer on a winter day  * There is no tingling, burning, or extreme heat, just a pleasant warm feeling on the skin. It's a perfect pick me up masque when you are in a hurry, because you put it on for 5 minutes. Montagne Jennesse ads are misleading though in terms of color representation. The packaging shows a bright red masque when in actuality it is a soft pink color. The results? It appeared that my skin felt cleaner and pores did look minimized. I will be repurchasing as you can't beat the price! Next I will be trying the cucumber peel off masque. |

Glad you liked it. 
Not sure you'll enjoy the other one so much but the self heat & the strawberry aha are my faves.
I had one of these in the bath last night. Leave it for a few minutes then massage it round again - it seems to reheat that way. Yum. |

Hi ladies,
Thanks for your comments. Will definitely have to try that strawberry one. Are their body treatments or foot treatments worth trying? I have rarely seen that line in stores. The store I bought it at, only had 3 of the masks. Just wanted to update that today my skin looked better than it has in weeks! It was kinda glowy. Yay! I don't know if it has anything to do with that masque, but I'm definitely repurchasing as it is such a bargain! Perfect size for traveling too. It's *so* nice to know there are affordable good products out there. just bought an Eminence Organics rose tonique today for $40 *gasp!* Never did I think I would spend that much on a toner! |

Hi Toe yes Boots stock them but I've also seen them cheaper at Asda and Wilkinson's
I do use the anti-cold and the one for achey muscles bath sachets.
They also have a bust gel, cellulite mud, body mud. But I imagine you have to be consistant in use to see a great improvement. All nice though. |

What does the citrus cloth masque do for the skin? Also, what's the cloth bit all about? Is there a cloth involved? |

It's a cloth type face shaped thing impregnated with citrus orangy mask. I spose it helps to keep more stuff on the face  Either way, you get a mega glow! (tho I wouldn't try it right before a big night out ) |
