Ingredients:
I love face masks. I am too lazy to go for DIY's too often, so these ready made masks are my favorites. Since I have acne prone combination skin, a clay mask is a must have in my skin care routine. I bought the Innisfree one because the brand has a very good name in the market.
I use it once a week, mostly on Sundays. I wash my face and apply a layer of this mask on my face. I do mix it with rose water to make the consistency manageable. It helps to spread the mask better on face. Once I have applied it, I wait for 15 minutes before taking it off. It does give cooling sensation like Menthol; and the next best thing about this mask is, unlike other clay masks, it does not make my skin dry.
After rinsing it, my skin feels fresh, and pimples start healing faster. It also makes the skin appear cleaner, clearer and little brighter.
1. Gentle on skin
2. Gives mild cooling sensation
3. Does not dry the skin too much post rinsing.
4. Good option for oily to combination skin.
5. Makes skin clearer.
6. Container is compact and light-weight, so can even be carried while travelling.
7. Only small quantity is required
8. Lots of good natural ingredients like kaolin clay, bentonite clay, volcanic ash and citrus extract.
Cons:
1. Doesn't come with any spatula.
Overall Verdict:
Although it does a good job, I am still not very impressed. I have tried face masks that are powerful enough to remove blackheads and are more effective on pimples, so I have high expectations from my clay mask. I am going to keep searching for a better one.
Will I recommend it?
It is value for money. Gives above average results, and does what it claims. So if you have not found your holy grail clay mask, give it a shot.:)
Lots of love, Neha
