When you purchase this item from a “brick& mortar” location, it is really expensive-approximately $95 per container (same amount of product). So, I only purchased this due to the price difference Amazon advertised. My review: I would not buy the Peter Thomas Roth Luxury Gold Mask for full price. I will say that when I purchase skin/makeup items from Amazon because the price is noticeably lower than my local Ulta store (I do love this store!); however, more often than not, many of the items I order from Amazon regarding makeup/skin care appear to have been a returned product that was either partially used, or the packaging was unsealed, indicating prior purchase and return. This isn’t always a deal breaker, but I have returned product that was clearly used, sometimes by half. To Amazons credit, they always make these returns right (concerning refunds). Now regarding the PTRoth 24K Gold Mask: for myself, (I am 53 yrs old & always have had good skin, minimal problems). What I currently am working on is finding good products to add moisture to my skin, which is much drier as I age. There is nothing WRONG with the 24K Gold mask-generally I LOVE the Peter Thomas Roth line of products-but after using this mask, it simply didn’t seem to give me great results. It was simply a good quality facial mask that didn’t harm my skin, but it didn’t work miracles for me!???? However, an interesting flip of that coin-my 26 year old daughter, who has to be careful with what she uses, since many products give her an acne breakout-REALLY liked this mask! She reported to me that she very much liked the results, and it was one of those rare products that did NOT cause her skin to break out at all! This is a huge plus for her. So, perhaps the PTR 24K Gold mask wasn’t my favorite is simply due to: 1) my age 2) my skin type (which is a step above fair complexion, no breakouts, and is mostly dry due to aging) Whereas my daughters skin is: 1) 26 years old 2) Fair complexion-she had strawberry blond hair at birth and is prone to minor acne breakouts 3) Can successfully, carefully, tan in the summer To summarize: I am sure this product is wonderful for some people , but not for myself .????
