" We love: Here at getlippy we are lifelong devotees at Montague Jeunesse's face masks and this red hot earth masque has to be our favourite Autumnal treat. The masque heats up on your face, which helps to open your pores and allows the masque to get the week's dirt and grime out. As well as giving your skin a treat all masks from Montague Jeunesse aren't tested on animals and are approved by the Vegetarian Society.
How much? A purse-friendly 99p."

"Times are hard, but you can still look fabulous. Here's how to bag the best buys on a budget..
For a girl's night in, Montagne Jeunesse makes the best selling face masks in the country - hardly surprising when they're a mere 99p each."

"Sauna Masque Montagne Jeunesse 99p tested by Bonnie Prior, 25 what did it involve?
After cleansing you squeeze a sticky pink paste out of a foil packet. It smelt of sweets. I felt a slight warming effect when it made contact with my skin but no further sauna-like effects.
Was the result professional
My skin did look shinier and cleaner but it did nothing to shift the difficult tiny blackheads on my nose, which professionals have exterminated
A bargain or false economy?
For a pound it was definitely worth it. It was simple to use and didn't leave my skin needing a calm down day as some facials do. It won't make any difference if you have problem skin but if you have an extra five minutes before a date or party it would give you a boost."
Beauty guerrillas - Grooming Guerrilla: Face Off
" I’ve always been taken with Patrick Bateman, the serial killer in American Psycho. Alright, he’s a totally unhinged character and probably not someone I should aspire to but he is immaculately dressed, has a fantastic apartment and the perfect lifestyle. Well, apart from all the killing anyway.
Early in the film, the super cool killer uses a peel off face mask. I’ve always loved that scene. So, when I was handed a few packets of Peel Off Masques from Montagne Jeunesse For Men, I was looking forward to giving it a go.
The masks, applied in a fine layers over the skin, dry and form some kind of a shrink wrap over dead skin, pores and dirt. 15 minutes later the Masque had tightened and dried up, grabbing a whole load of gunk in the process.
It was time to peel the film away. At first I couldn’t grab the edges and thought I might have to wash the thing off, but after bit of persevering I soon got my technique down. I rolled the mask away in a Batemanesque motion.
When each bit of the masque had been peeled off, my skin was immediately smoother and my pores looked clearer. I was surprised by how much difference it made.
I think the mask would be great before a night out, when you want to look in top condition."

Lancashire evening post - Montagne Jeunesse Miracle Masques, 99p
"With so many 'miracle' products on the market it's easy to become a little jaded and start to want your beauty products to be all singing all dancing and go the extra mile. And, always ones to lead the way, Montagne Jeunesse have done it again with their four new hair masques... I tried the Hot Miracle with avocado to soothe and nourish and cherry bark to promote shine. It did exactly what it said on the packet and gave shine and strength back to my hair, which has to deal with being dried and straightened into submission every day. I'm a big fan of conditioning treatments and have to say it performed as well as my favorite, which costs considerably more."
