Texture: transparent gel with small pink and beige particles Smell: lovely rose smell, not overwhelming at all What I love about it: I have dry skin, so I have nothing against silica (for those who do, steer away from this). The oil base used in this product (safflower, sesame and argan) is something I would blend on my oil as well as it is rich. The fragrance is pleasant as well and the texture is quite pretty. smells divine and you only need the tiniest amount to slather on. So although it is pricey it lasts ages. The consistency is like jelly and my skin is baby soft after. It is difficult to get off, I use my two-sided cloth or jump in the shower. I don't think the description fits the product or the removal instructions so I totally understand why it's a marmite mask!
The instruction is to wipe off the product after ten minutes and the particles inside the gel makes it very difficult to just wipe off. You will end up spending a long time to take it off and resist the urge to just hop into the shower and rinse it off. After wiping off, it does leave the skin pretty soft, but I personally think you can get the same result by massaging the same oil base on to the skin and use a warm towel to wipe off the excess.
