A woman found herself in a VERY sticky situation after she used a ‘peel off’ face mask that became stuck to her skin and had to turn to her husband and his WD40 to wipe it off.
The 51-year-old from Bollington, Cheshire claims that she was forced to seek help from her husband after the £10 mask wouldn’t come off, having to turn to WD40 cleaning agent and a scouring pad to prise the caked product from her face.
The footage shows Linda’s anguished face as her husband Keith, 57, sprays the oil, usually used for lubricating metal,and tries to peel it from her cheeks with Linda squirming and yelping as he uses the substance on her face.
‘It bloody hurts’, she cries in the funny footage as her husband tuts at her.
‘For f*** sake! You’ve put the bugger on’, he said, annoyed.
Ouch! Linda used the mask on her face for twenty minutes with agonizing results. Husband Keith was on hand with cleaning agent WD40

After the agent didn’t quite do the trick, Keith resorts to using a scourer to try and remove the rest of the blackhead extraction paste.
The rest eventually came off with hot soapy water.
Linda said she put the product, from Misfit Cosmetics, on for twenty minutes as stated in the instructions on the bottle.

‘Some parts were thicker than others’, she said.
‘I’ll never use the product again, it got everywhere, it was even in my hairline.’
The company advertises the Paste as a powerful peel-off mask composed of bamboo charcoal that purifies and polishes skin, as well as deeply cleansing pores.
A representative for Misfit cosmetics said: ‘We have received no correspondence from the customer regarding the issue, and frankly the claims of the customer are completely untrue. We have sold millions of this particular product, and have never received a claim from a customer as far-fetched as this.
‘Included with every one of our blackhead paste orders are a leaflet instructing customers to patch test the product first. In addition to this, the product is water based and easy to remove, and hence the claims of using WD40 are simply fabricated and untrue.’
