Product:

Sleeping packs are a great way to keep your skin moisturized during the colder months of the year. It’s best to find ones with thicker consistencies, because skin needs extra protection and moisture to remedy dry and chapped skin caused by the cold. Currently, we find that Too Cool for School’s Pumpkin Sleeping Pack is the perfect trick for achieving bright, moisturized skin in the winter.

How it worked for us:

The Pumpkin Sleeping Pack is a winter must have. The thick consistency of the pack ensured that we woke up every morning with moisturized skin that practically glowed. Irritated or patchy coloring had disappeared, replaced with a bright and even complexion. We never had to worry about a “sticky” or “tacky” feeling to our skin, and neither of us had to worry about it making our skin oily the next day. It’s safe to say that this product put a spell on us.

Pros:

-Skin appears moisturized, plumper, and brighter in the morning

-Did not cause any acne

-Cute and travel friendly packaging

-Strong perfume scent that we enjoy

Cons:

-Strong perfume scent that others may be sensitive to

-Pumpkin isn’t very high on the list of ingredients
