Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Review

Hello hello and welcome to my first ever review! Today I'm reviewing a skincare line that was sent to me for free thanks to Bzzagent! My mom and I are both members, and she got sent a lovely little package. We both decided to try out the three products, since we have different skin types. This is what happened...
Before I begin I suppose I should mention what type of skin I have. My skin isn't bad. In fact, my skin is pretty nice. I only "break out" around my womanly cycle, and breaking out consists of a pimple or two. My skin is combination/dry, with the slightest bit of oil in my T-zone. I can easily go without powder and not have a shiny complexion. The end. Now on to the fun part!
I was sent the Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser, Night Cream, and Treatment mask. Let's break this down.
Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser is well, a basic cream cleanser. I found that it took off makeup with ease, and overall did a pretty okay job. It left my skin feeling moisturized without being greasy, and left behind a fresh, almost lemony scent. I'd recommend this to anyone who could use just a touch of moisture.
Intense Hydration Night Cream was underwhelming. It could have easily been used as a day cream, since the consistency wasn't as rich as most other night creams.
Intense Hydration Treatment Mask was a little iffy. If you've ever used Nair, you'll know exactly how this product feels. In all honesty, it made me feel a little uncomfortable. Though it has a pleasant scent, the feeling of the product threw me off. And even thought Burt's Bees is a natural company, if this came within an inch and a half of my eyes I felt a strong burning sensation. I've never had this problem with any other mask- natural or not.

Final Thoughts For a natural line, this was okay. I'd ditch the night cream and maybe even the mask. The cream cleanser was by far my favorite. You can pick up any of these products at your local drug store or here
