Reviews mention

  • Exceptionally hydrating serum texture
  • Lightweight occlusive jelly finish
  • Comfortable reusable silicone mask
  • Playful, science-driven branding
  • Sticky, tacky serum finish
  • Tiny, finicky squeeze packaging
  • Inconsistent mask facial fit
  • Potential breakout sensitivity

Experiment earns strong reviews for delivering deep, lasting hydration—Super Saturated soothes sensitive, eczema‑prone skin and pairs well with tretinoin, while Buffer Jelly seals moisture without heavy grease—yet the brand isn’t universally perfect. Users cite sticky/tacky textures, small or hard‑to‑dispense packaging, occasional breakouts or residue, and fit/storage quirks with the Avant Guard reusable mask.

  • I've only tried the Super Saturated serum from Experiment but oh my god it is fantastic. I have super dry skin and this has my skin looking so dewy and fresh for hours and hours. If you've ever used snail mucin, its a similar texture. It has some stickiness, but I always top with moisturizer so any stickiness doesn't last very long. Its fragrance free too, so I haven't had any issues with my eyes burning or skin reacting to it. It is soooo deeply hydrating, I use this product every night. I'm running low so I really hope they restock before I run out completely!!!! If you have dry skin - this will be your best friend.

  • I have used both the jelly and the oil from experiment and I absolutely love them both. They’re staples in my skincare routine now and I always have a backup on hand in case they go out of stock!

  • I bought Super Saturated and I’ve been using it around my eyes, and it’s totally eliminated the dehydration lines I was getting during sleep. I mist some filtered water on my face and then put the serum on to lock it in. It’s tacky af so I let it sink in before I put moisturizer on top.

  • Experiment is just the absolute coolest. I’ve tried all three products from them and just love the way all three are both innovative but also incredibly effective.

    If i had to choose one I would pick the buffer jelly as my favorite and a good starting point but they are all so great you really can’t go wrong!

  • I love supporting small businesses, especially female-owned ones and Black businesses! I recently bought it about a week ago, but I love the avant guard mask! I got the small head one for reference because my face is tiny. If you buy it and it's not the right size, they give free returns in exchange for a different size. It definitely changes the game for face masks and saves money from other sheet masks ( I still buy them, though, lol). All you have to do is layer on those moisturizing products and put the mask on. It's also very comfortable to put on and doesn't bother your ears or anything. You can leave the mask on as long as you want while multitasking, which is a plus! I usually leave it on for 15 minutes, and it does its job.

    Bottom line, if you're looking for a way to change up your skincare, buy the avant guard mask. It's also sustainable since it's silicone and eco-friendly! You don't even have ever to repurchase it. It's a game changer and in the best way. Going to try the serum soon!

  • Serum + occlusion barrier = brilliant. I love the concept but do wish the mask fit my nose a bit better. All and all a great product.

    Fit isn't perfect but its a trade off for a reusable product that otherwise does the job is worth it

  • This reusable sheet mask was so helpful and my skin care routine. I always hated having to throw away my shit mess because it felt a little wasteful but now that is not the case I just applied a couple drops of my serum and applied the reusable silicone mask, this was a great way to end my spa night

  • i tested their reusable face mask, it’s a really cool idea and definitely the first of its kind that i’ve seen!

    Feedback

    the mask’s bands that go around your ears are a little uncomfortable, especially since they’re in like a squiggly shape. other than that the mask is really cool :0

  • I tried their re-useable sheet mask and I really like it for deep moisture impact. I do however, find it hard to store and confidently know it will be clean to use on my face the next time.

  • I loved using it it helped me alot

    The shape of it can be improved

  • I got this in a thingsdrop and it was okay? I didn’t feel much of a difference to be honest and would probably stick to my regular sheet masks in addition to my serums. I probably won’t buy this again.

  • Nice products leaves a more slimy feeling than other hydrating products I have tried. Great for makeup primer alternatives

  • great for after a heavier skincare routine to help soak everything in. love using it after my nighttime routine so nothing gets rubbed of when laying down!

  • Avid skincare enthusiast here! Routine consists of luxury products like augustinas bader as well as drugstore brands like ponds and vanicream. This is easily the best hydrating serum I’ve ever used. Price is right, packaging is great, product leaves my skin feeling hydrated. I have a few steps in my routine and this does not pill, or get in the way. A great compliment to any skincare routine.

    I want this product to come in a larger quantity, I love the fact that it’s refillable, but would love to see a a few more ounces available to reduce the amount of times I have to repurchase this product. That goes for all skincare brands.

  • It wasn't great. Just ok. Not worth the money.

  • The face masks!!!! Absolutely a win since they leave my face so soft and glowyyy adore these

  • Healthy Hippo candies are so tasty. I can’t stop eating them once I start!! The company has a great marketing strategy and I love seeing all the Tik Toks and Instagram photos. What a creative team.

    I can’t say that anything needs improvement.
