The Purify Self-Heating Mask (sugg. retail price ($5.99) from Bioré deserves another mention.
Right about now just might be a good time to apply the contents of this little power-packed capsule and massage it into your face. And it is easy to open—no “tear-here” tantrums-- unlike some other packaging that instructs “tear here” and no amount of tearing will work--especially nerve-wracking if you are trying to get ready for a shower and don’t have any scissors handy.
The self-heating mask fulfills the promise of a relaxing skin revitalizer…and in only one minute. And there is absolutely no mess. You just massage the mask into your skin. The warmth feels wonderful and soothing—calming. Then you just rinse off and there you are, ready for anything new that comes your way.

Exceptional Exfoliants
One sure way to wake-up a tired complexion in the morning is to wash your face with a facial scrub. There is nothing like it to get your skin cells pumping. St. Ives Elements offers three different versions, each guaranteed to get your face ready for the day.
The Swiss-based St. Ives Laboratories, now a part of Alberto-Culver, with its world-wide line of botanically-based Swiss Formula skin and hair products has long offered a strong selection of high quality and still affordable products.
The most gentle is the Olive Scrub., a 5 oz tube containing olive oil and all-natural exfoliants. The Olive Scrub does exactly what it says—“gently exfoliates while leaving skin moisturized.” It is very easy on the skin and is one of the most mild exfoliants on the market. Another, Microdermabrasion, has fine mineral crystals and chamomile to “gently smooth away the appearance of fine lines.” The texture is not at all gritty and the sloughing particles are so fine all you feel is a tingling. Then there is St. Ives new Warming Scrub, which “relaxes pores for a deeper clean”. It heats with contact with water and makes a rich lather and feels very comforting and at the same time invigorating.
All are refreshing wake-up calls for a still-sleepy complexion.
