Mask Review: Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask

/'Ello folsickles. Today's review will be for the Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask

AvailabilityThis is available at bluemercury.com, ulta.com, sephora.com, jcpenny.com and macys.com along with their respective physical store locations as well as peterthomasroth.com and dermstore.com. If you purchase from peterthomasroth you do have several sizing options; the pricing is as follows:
14 ml (0.47 fl oz) - $7 (this is the size shown in the above photos)
15 ml (0.5 fl oz) - $10 (honestly I'm unsure as to why this and the 14 ml are both options and I don't think it's worth an extra $3 for an extra ml)
30 ml (1 fl oz) -  $16
50 ml (1.7 fl oz)  - $35 (this is the standard size that you can get at any retailer; it's cheaper to buy 2 30ml jars but...)
150 ml (5.1 fl oz) - $55
What is this pricing even? I am genuinely confused as to who decided this.

Would I buy this? No

What is this product? What is it supposed to do?
Product info according to sephora.com:

If you want to know more…
This ultra-gentle gel helps soothe, hydrate, and detoxify the look of dry, irritated skin with botanical extracts of cucumber, papaya, chamomile, pineapple, sugar maple, sugarcane, orange, lemon, bilberry, and aloe vera. It’s ideal for helping to calm and soothe the skin's appearance after sun exposure, peels, waxing, facials, and extractions.

What else you need to know:

Does this contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Again, according to sephora.com
-Cucumber Extract: Helps to nourish, hydrate, comfort, soothe, calm, and de-puff the appearance of skin.
-Aloe Vera: Helps calm and hydrate the appearance of skin.
-Sugarcane and Sugar Maple Extracts: Help improve the look of skin dullness.
-Papaya Extract: Rich in vitamins, this natural enzyme helps soften the appearance of skin.

What is the texture like?
This has a texture very reminiscent of aloe gel, it's gelatinous but is almost watery when worked into the skin.

Is this scented?
This has a clean cucumber-y aloe scent. 

What has my experience with the product been like?
Overall I find this mask to be refreshing and softening for the skin. It's great for the summertime especially when skin may feel depleted of moisture from being out in the heat but might be producing oil due to humidity or heat and you just cannot be bothered to rehydrate with anything heavy. That said, I think the mask is pricey for what it is and you could just get aloe gel or buy an aloe plant and rub a leaf section upon your face for much cheaper (granted fresh aloe juice/sap is STICKY! so you might want to mix it in with a moisturizer you like).
Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.
