Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask review (unsponsored)
I - finally - bought the iconic Jet Lag Mask by Summer Fridays, which you’ve probably heard of and may want to try for yourself. Here’s what makes this product stand out and my honest, unsponsored review.
Meet Summer Fridays: skincare born from friendship
Summer Fridays was founded in 2018 in New York City by Marianna Hewitt and Laura Lee, two best friends and beauty influencers who wanted to create skincare products that are effective, easy to use and feel like a treat. Their mission was simple: to make skincare enjoyable and accessible while delivering real results.
From the very start, Summer Fridays has focused on clean, high-quality ingredients that nourish and protect the skin without unnecessary additives.
The brand quickly gained attention with its iconic Jet Lag Mask, a deeply hydrating and soothing overnight mask designed to restore tired skin after travel or a long day.
Summer Fridays combines science-backed formulas with a laid-back, approachable vibe. The products feel like a little moment of self-care, helping you look and feel your best no matter how busy life gets.
The brand has now expanded, with a range of skincare-infused makeup, including their best-selling bronzing drops. Find out more about Summer Fridays and their best-sellers.
Is Summer Fridays cruelty-free and vegan?
Yes. Summer Fridays is a cruelty free company meaning they do not test their products on animals. The range is also 100% vegan.
Where to buy Summer Fridays in the UK?
You can order your Summer Fridays staples via Cult Beauty or Space NK. These online retailers often offer discounts that definitely sweeten the deal.
The Jet Lag Mask
This mask is a cult favourite for good reason. It is a multitasking hydrator that feels luxurious yet simple to use. You can leave it on as a daytime or nighttime moisturiser, use it as a quick mask, sleep in it overnight or apply it to your hands or body when your skin needs a boost.
It delivers deep hydration, soothes stressed skin and creates a healthy glow without fuss.
According to user trials, 100 percent of participants saw increased moisture eight hours after application, nearly everyone experienced smoother, softer and soothed skin and 94 percent reported improved skin texture. It became iconic because it works, and it works quickly.
What are the key ingredients?
This mask is powered by a cocktail of highly effective ingredients that work together to bring your skin back to feeling and looking its best:
Niacinamide helps brighten complexion and smooth texture by reducing the appearance of fine lines and pores.
Glycerin is a powerful humectant that draws moisture into the skin, keeping it soft and supple.
Hyaluronic Acid helps skin look plump and healthy by holding onto hydration.
Skin Soothing Complex is a blend of allantoin, bisabolol, panthenol and cucumber extract that calms and soothes stressed skin.
Who is it for?
Virtually anyone, as we’ve all had days where our skin is craving hydration and comfort. It is ideal if you travel often, deal with dry air or simply want to refresh tired skin.
It is fragrance free, non comedogenic and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, making it a reliable option for anyone looking for low effort, high reward skincare.
My honest Jet Lag Mask review
I bought this product myself, this is not a sponsored review. You can also check out my review of their Light Aura Vitamin C + Peptide Eye Cream.
I decided to see for myself what all the hype was about, and I completely understand now why this mask has become such an iconic product.
From the very first use, the rich and creamy texture felt like a comfort blanket for my skin. It is one of those products you can almost feel working as soon as you apply it. The formula is really designed to do it all, from hydrating to brightening and soothing, basically bringing your skin back to life!
I really enjoy how versatile it is. Sometimes I leave it on for just ten minutes as a quick moisture boost, other times I use it as an overnight mask and wake up with skin that looks plump, fresh and well rested. It is especially brilliant after a flight or a long day in the sun when my skin feels dehydrated and in need of some serious TLC. There is no heaviness, no greasy residue, just deeply nourished skin that feels balanced and comfortable.
For me like millions of others, it has earned its place in my skincare routine as that one product I can always fall back on when my skin is feeling a little delicate or out of whack. Sounds like what you need? Get yours here.
