Pros Smells nice, face feels SO clean after use, and very cheap.
Cons Nothing :)
Bottom line I heard SO many great reviews on Ulta's website about this mask and let me tell you it definitely exceeded my expectations. Very wonderful face mask, especially after steaming your face. DEFINITELY worth a try. :)

Pros Gets rid of acne scars (the way I use it)
Not too drying
Smells nice
Cleans good
Cheap
Cons Dries skin somewhat
Stings/ burns really badly
Gave me a new pimple everytime
Bottom line I hate writing negative reviews, so I never do, but I just had 2 put my input on this 1. I used my normal routine and for this I had 2 start using before washing my face the stinging was so bad; that helped with the stinging but I was still getting new pimples everytime I used this and I had finally gotten rid of all them, now they're back, but small. It brings whiteheads to the surface, and they just sit there stuck (grossss). Idk if its shrinking my pores since mine are already small, but I bet it does. Yesturday to test things out I didn't use it and added in ivory soap to replace it (amazing at getting rid of acne, but somewhat drying) and continued with my normal routine. I woke up and now they're almost gone again.

Pros AWESOME masque! I've been using this for about 20yrs & still LOVE IT! when i lived in the midwest I used it once per month, now that I'm in the west (desert) I use it 2 a week & still LOVE IT! My face is sooo smooth & clear. I get sooo MANY compliements on My skin & I LOVE My LOVELY skin myself :-)
Cons NOTE to ALL USERS:
when 1st using apply lightly & leave on 15 to 20 minutes.
use once per week.
depends on your weather the amount of times of use per week.
it DOES help with acne over time of use.
follow with a high quality facial cream.
when removing (always gently wipe in upward motion, training your skin to stay up)
Bottom line this is an EXCELLENT masque when used regularly. allow yourself time in order to notice the positive change within your skin.
this is an EXCELLENT product for a GREAT price! i pay no more than 6 bucks for the big jar (sally's online) and I've even gotten the mud & one other kind I can't think of now (yet the mud is GREAT too). ENJOY taking care & having the MOST GREATEST skin that makes ALL the guys love you & the girls hate you (ahhh hahahaha) means youre doing somthing good! yipeee!

Pros You're skin feels tight
You're pores become smaller
Acne begins to dissapear after a few days (for me)
Skin feels refreshed
Cons Nothing
Bottom line I've had acne for so many years, and this is the only thing that's ever really helped. To so many people, this is just a product, but for me it's a life-saver :D And unlike many other acne cleansers, its cheap. I'm no longer embarassed because I have acne, because it has dissapeared.

Pros ♦skin feels tighter
♦skin feels cleaner
♦good every-week mask
♦comes in a convenient tube
♦good for sensitive skin
Cons ♦does not do anything drastic to improve your skin
Bottom line This mask is a really good mask if your on a budget and you want to use a mask every week to keep your skin looking well. It has this tingly cool feeling on the skin that comes from the mint that can feel very soothing. I've also noticed that afterwards my skin feels tighter (which is my favorite thing about this mask).

However, if you are someone who is trying to improve your skin conditions quickly and very drastically, i would not recommend this. It does not do anything for my acne scars (it may over time).

Overall, this is something i would repurchase because for the money and quality, it is a great product.

Pros It really does shrink pores, dries up visible acne, and leaves skin feeling cool and refreshed. Perfect on a hot summer day, and great for scaring boyfriends and small children.
Cons Scares boyfriends and small children. The process of wiping it off with a washcloth, as recommended, can irritate sensitive skin.
Bottom line I tend to get breakouts caused by hormones around my mouth and generally the lower half of my face. I've tried all kinds of special cleansers in the past, but I've found that using this mask twice a week in conjunction with noncomedogenic (spelling?) face wash, moisturizer, and make-up keeps me as clear as I'm seemingly ever going to get. Break-outs last less time and leave less visible scars with my current routine. I am going to try what someone else suggested and hit the shower to rinse off the mask afterward instead of using the washcloth. Thanks for the heads-up that it will dry skin out if used too much; I was considering moving to 3-4 times a week. By the way, the CVS brand of this product works just as well, but it's much thinner and takes a couple coats. (My pharmacy is often out of the real thing.)
