What the gurus are saying

This mask earns its praise for dry, tight skin, with gurus calling it really hydrating and a handy pick for long flights. Others find the 28 gram size small for the money, since similar results can come from other moisturizers. The one thing to keep in mind: it may peel or irritate when used as a moisturizer, and its peppermint and essential oils have raised a flag for overnight use.

"The Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask [...] is a very nourishing, rich moisturizer. [...] Yes, it's very very nice. I just use it as a PM moisturizer. Bang for buck, obviously, it's 28 gram, pretty small. And I feel like you can get a similar effect with a lot of other moisturizers."

Summer Fridays Rich Cushion Cream Ultra Plumping Moisturizer Review & How to Use

"When Summer Fridays first started out I was not a fan. They came out, I think their very first product was a Jet Lag Mask and it had peppermint oil in it and a lot of other essential oils in it and it just seemed like a cause for concern. [...] If you're going to use that overnight with peppermint oil and stuff in it, it seems like a bad idea and it was scented."

"This is my worst value pick. It's really just a rich moisturizer that you're supposed to tissue off, which feels like an older outdated concept to me. There is some peeling if you use it as a moisturizer instead, which I guess is why they tell you to tissue it off, and sometimes it irritates me and sometimes it pills. I [...] don't get it, even though [...] I do quite like some of the other Summer Fridays products. [...] For me, I just feel like get a better moisturizer."

"I usually also apply the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask on top of my moisturizer to lock in moisture but also to add more and this does a fabulous job when your skin needs some TLC. This is great to use on its own in replacement of your moisturizer, this is great to use on top of your moisturizer, and you can use this as a mask so you can put a decent layer all over, leave it on for as long as you want, and then wipe it off."

THIS DRY SKIN SKINCARE ROUTINE WILL GIVE YOU THE MOST HYDRATED, MOISTURIZED SKIN EVER!

IF I COULD ONLY PICK 1 PRODUCT FROM MY FAVORITE SKINCARE BRANDS | FYI...THIS WAS REALLY HARD!

"The Jet Lag Mask [...] is so moisturizing. If you have dry skin, you have tightness, you have irritation, you just need additional moisture, pick up this, this really is great. [...] I like to use this two different ways: I like to use this on its own in replacement of moisturizer, and I will also pair this up with a moisturizer if my skin really needs that moisture. When your skin needs some TLC, this really is a great product to use."

"One of my favorite ones is the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask. This is like the little travel size one. [...] It's so good. It's really really hydrating. My skin's been a little bit dry on the drier side lately so I've been using this one a lot more."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Source: DermNet

Ceramides

Ceramides are part of the skin's own barrier, and moisturisers built around them have evidence for holding water in and settling the tightness and flaking that come with a damaged barrier.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
