True Botanicals Resurfacing moisture mask

I went through the whole pot
​and I'm still wondering how it worked...

TRUE BOTANICALS - RESURFACING MOISTURE MASK
$ 651.01 fl oz | 30 ml

KEY INGREDIENTS: 
LACTIC ACID:
This alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) is not only an effective exfoliant, it also stimulates production of natural ceramides and hyaluronic acid to prevent moisture loss. Plus it helps brighten skin by inhibiting melanin-triggering enzymes.
AVOCADO BUTTER: 
After thorough exfoliation, replenishing moisture with rich, nourishing oils helps skin remain vibrant and soft. Rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, D, E, protein, pantothenic acid, and fatty acids, avocado butter is the way to go.
ASTAXANTHIN: 
What doesn’t this essential fatty acid do? Astaxanthin is proven to improve skin elasticity and texture, stimulate collagen production, strengthen cell membranes, reduce wrinkles, and diminish dark circles and hyperpigmentation. It also outperforms both vitamins E and C as an antioxidant and even boosts their effectiveness when combined.

What They Say:When dead skin cells build up, our complexions look dull. This mask gently sloughs them away in less than five minutes, enabling the potent nutrients in the rest of your routine to sink in more deeply. Since it moisturizes as it exfoliates, skin feels smooth but never stripped.

HOW TO USE:Massage onto clean dry skin. Leave on for 2 to 5 minutes. Gently remove with a warm wet washcloth, and follow with face oil.

MY THOUGHS:
I wanted to love this, and although it felt pleasant enough, including possessing the wonderful True Botanicals signature scent, I never really noticed any remarkable differences after using this. My skin  didn't feel particularly smooth nor clear, neither did it feel moisturised. In fact, I always had red blotches which didn't look pretty afterwards.  I finished the entire pot, so it wasn't for a lack of trying.
​It simply didn't do anything noticeable enough to warrant purchasing this again.
A pass for me, but may be another story for you!
