Please let us know how the Queen Helene facial mask works for you. I
just saw that same product today and almost bought it, but went for
the Freeman's instead.
And yes, my wife hates going to the drugstore with me because I go
into a zombie-like trance, mouth agape, feet barely shuffling as I
systematically weave up and down every isle... :)

: Last time I went to the drugstore (and I resisted buying camphor

the
