Pros Gentle, non-irritating. Doesn't dry out your face too much. Does help to regulate sebum production - but isn't the best zit buster. Helps control hormonal acne.
Cons Expensive.
Bottom line This mask is interesting. I purchased this to help prevent severe acnew (which I used to have) from returning without overstripping my skin with treatments I didnt need.

At first use, I was not impressed - but with continued use I see a difference overtime in my skin's improved condition. I feel that this helps to prevent my skin on days when it feels too oily and I like to use it after an at home 40% Lactic Acid chemical peel to help avoid breakouts from purging (the zits that form on your skin when you start treating it at deep layers and the oil is coming up and getting removed for the first time).


I like that it is gentle, but effective. My skin is normal w/ some sensitive areas, but I believe I could comfortably use this more than a few times a week. I only use it weekly, however, the day after I do a chemical peel. It doesnt suckle every bit of dirt out but is great at controlling oil. The mask dries on your face very quickly, and is almost gone if you leave it on longer than the recommended time (5 min). I usually leave mine on for 30 minutes or so, while I am deep conditioning my hair or something.


For major extraction action, I would highly recommend Azek Bentonite Clay Mask w/ ACV. Its $7 for a HUGE tube of the powder that you mix yourself, and its well worth it. You can get it online by googling it, or at your local health food, Whole Foods, Vitamin Shop, Etc.

Queen Helen Mint Julep mask is a good alternative for acne that helped me too. The sulfur in it eats away at whiteheads, but it isnt that great for cystic acne.

Pros none
Cons didnt work at all
Bottom line im taking it back to sephora, it doesn't dry any pimples out and the texture is a little weird even when it claims to be dry on the surface.

Pros Skin felt smoother and looked smoother after one use
Cons The immediate look of clear skin turned into ALOT of acne, the immediate results are not worth the after effects of breakouts that it gives on a MASSIVE scale.
Bottom line I wouldnt reccomend it to anyone.

Pros This mask doesn't irritate or dry out my skin. I have found that my skin looks/feels best about a day after using it. My skin looks super smooth and make-up (mineral, of course) goes on significantly smoother.
Cons Ugly color? It's greyish...
Bottom line Great product and would recommend to anyone looking for a non-irritating, but effective, mask.
