What the gurus are saying
This bargain-priced mask impresses with a creamy, lightweight formula and delivers visible results at a fraction the cost of comparable products. However, anyone with thin hair may find it weighs strands down significantly and flattens volume, a real concern for those needing weightless products. A couple of gurus found the smell off-putting, but most didn't let that sway them from valuing the results and price.

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

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.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
