Description

Garden of Wisdom's Pumpkin/Papaya Enzyme Mask is a nutrient-rich exfoliator that can be used as a cleanser or a mask. It is wonderful to release dead skin cells while sweeping dirt from the pores and leaving the skin nourished and silky soft. Pumpkin and papaya are both gentle natural exfoliants. Rich in A, B, and C vitamins, the watermelon keeps the skin fresh and hydrated. Gentle enough for all skin profiles.

Method of Application
After cleansing, spread a thin layer of this product onto your skin, avoiding the eye area. Let the mask sit up for a limited time, perhaps 30 seconds up to 1 or 2 minutes. This will depend on the condition of your skin. Continue your daily routine as normal.

How To Care For Our Products

Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients

Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life.
Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).

Please keep your products out of humidity, heat, direct light and in a dark cabinet when possible:

Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.

Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark:

Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it into a separate,sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator.
Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally, you can refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take it out, warm it up at room temperature and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. There are some oils with a super long shelf life, like Coconut Cream and Jojoba Oil.

Refrigeration is not necessary, but it surely won't hurt:

Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place.
Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated.
Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove
what you need and keep the rest in the fridge.
Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years.
Herbs - all herbs (whole or ground) should be kept in a dark, cool and dry location.
Herbal (liquid) Extracts - these are created using alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herbs - root, trunk, leaves, and flowers. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be kept in the refrigerator or a dark place.
Other Raw Ingredients - i.e., Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc.
will all have a different shelf life.

Pumpkin/Papaya Enzyme Mask

Effective for sensitive skin but too messy for me

My skin profile is rosacea, sensitive, over 50 and this is effective and brightens my skin without irritating it. But I find it so clumpy and messy I hate to use it. If I'm wearing any clothing above the waist at all it flakes off and gets all in my clothes, and also all over the sink and counter. The clumps drop off and won't stay on my skin. I prefer the red wine and pineapple gel, it goes on smooth and stays put, and I think it does about an equivalent job.

Thank you for your honest review! :)
A suggestion would be to take some of it, and put it in your hand, and add a little water, or yoghurt or hydrosol or a serum or something like that, mix it around and then apply to your skin in a very thin layer. This may work better for you :) Reach out to us if you need further assistance with this product!

Excellent!

My absolute favorite GOW mask.
This mask is easy to use, is incredibly clarifying and leaves my skin feeling extremely pampered. My skin is then perfectly prepared for my GOW Es-Care-Go H2O Hydrating Serum and Passion Fruit Seed Oil. A perfect combo! Love it!

Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate you taking the time!

Gentle exfoliation

This is my favorite mask ever. I love that it's all natural without any added fragrance or sensitizing ingredients. My skin is ridiculously sensitive and prone to dryness so it can be a challenge to exfoliate without irritating it. Well this mask does it perfectly! The only thing I would add is that it is a bit thick but mixing it with a few drops of water before applying fixes that right up. The smell isn't bad either IMO; it is a bit tart but nothing off putting.

We're so glad you are loving this product!

Love how this mask works, but

I love this mask for it's exfoliating action. I love that it has honest, pure, organic ingredients but you must not be opposed to the smell of the fermented papaya. It smells very vinegary.
