I am a big fan of Nellie Tier skincare products and if you are one of those regular readers of my blog, You might have already read all the reviews that I posted. If not, Have a look at them here. I got super excited when I was sent some of the products from Tier FOr Teens range. Though this range is specially for teenagers, I decided to give it a try. During my teenage days, I never had problems related to acne or any other skin related problems. It’s now when I turned 28, most of the skincare issues such as breakouts, dark circles etc started recurring… So, I thought, Why not give this a try and see how effective it is in getting rid of my acne related issues. After all, all products are completely natural, So no harm in trying!
Now, A little about my skin – I have a super sensitive skin and I sometimes get breakouts during those days of the month. If you ask about my skincare routine. I don’t have a single brand alone for my skincare. I mix and match a lot of products (day/night moisturisers along with serums and facial oils) depending on the special skin issue I have at the time I select the product which targets that specific problem. The three products I used to use daily from this Nellie Tier range is – Face Serum, Eye gel, Day/Night Creams. Tier For Teens range arrived at the right time. I received it when I had almost emptied the serum and day cream.
So, Let’s move on to the review. This range have a total of 6 products out of which I have 4 of them

I use a wooden spoon to scoop the mask out. Packaging is same as the Hydrating mask from Nellie Tier. The dark round glass jar with a screw top lid. There’s no stopper. The consistency of the mask is thick yet creamy, easy to apply.
How I use it & my thoughts – After washing my face using the wash from this range, I apply a generous layer of this mask all over the face avoiding the eye area. I leave it for about 10 minutes before massaging into the skin and then take the mask off using a wet cloth .
I really love how wet the mask is – It doesn’t turn dry. It will be wet on your skin. Feels very soothing and with all the natural ingredients, this mask is very gentle on skin. It contains French Rose Clay to draw toxins and excess oils to the surface of the skin without causing excessive drying. It has soothing oats, willow and orange peel for gentle exfoliation, Aloe Vera to heal and a combination of herbs and botanical extracts for their anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Green Tea treats acne and reduces inflammation, rose petals and hibiscus soften and calm, burdock helps eliminate toxins, NZ Manuka honey reduces scarring and lemon and tea tree are included for their healing and anti-septic properties. A #SuperMask that is great for trouble skin. As you can see from the bottle, I have used a lot of it. And every week I use it.
Overall, a great mask with all natural ingredients to treat your trouble skin. I can see myself repurchasing it . It smells good too. I like the herbs smell. I never wash it off in 10 minutes. I put it on my face for a good 40-50 minutes and relax, just go to take a small nap., watch tv etc. Once washed off, My skin feels hydrated, clean and soft. It didn’t irritate my sensitive skin which is what I love about it.

How to Use and my thoughts: Apply a small amount of gel directly onto pimples as they appear. Avoid surrounding skin. You may experience a tingling sensation for a short time….this is normal. Use morning and night after using WASH and MOISTURE. Now, Let me tell you, if you suffer from occasional breakouts (moderate, not intense) this is for you. If you have intense breakout I would suggest you visit your derma. For new blemishes/acne, this spot gel works well. I just spot the acne and cover it using this gel. Never touch acne using fingers. Take a cotton bud to apply. Spot the gel on the affected area without spreading the product on the surrounding skin. Within 3-4 days, acne clear up without leaving marks as well. While using at night, I apply my night cream first and then spot the gel on the affected area. It gives a cooling sensation and is really soothing on skin.
Overall, a great natural spot treatment for moderate acne. It heals the area in 3-4 days without leaving any scars. Has the goodness of Aloe Vera, Lavender , White Willow, Burdock, Liquorice Root, Eucalyptus & Thyme
