Queen Helene : Mint Julep Masque

When I used it as a facial (over entire face) my skin looked fresher and the redness was reduced. It created the illusion that my skin was better, because the next day it looked the way it had before. So, I decided to use it overnight as a spot trearment. I did that for three days and guess what? I broke out like crazy. These small miniature pimples are all over the place wherever I used it as a spot treatment. It could be the the cream getting rid of the dirt so I had a reaction,but I doubt it. My skin was so much smoother and now I have about 20-30 of these small red pimples all over the place. I don't want them to get bigger, but they might. So, dont use this as a spot treatment because it barely does anything except make you look fresher.

I love this mask and use it a few times a week. I also use it as a spot treatment on pimples overnight and I always notice an immediate effect when I do so. The pimples shrink and become less red, and the mask really seems to speed them along.

I love the texture, smell, and sensation. I love it!

I started using this when my mom saw I started getting breakouts (13 years old-I'm now 18). I thought I knew this huge secret with this stuff for the longest time. Then when I came upon acne.org I found out that LOTS of other people knew about it. :P I used to use this religiously (once weekly), because I had severe acne, and it works WONDERS. I usually use it about once a month now (my acne has been slightly better since I started birth control). I don't find it hard to get off like other people say. I cleanse in the sink, apply the mask, then wash it off in the shower. If you're having problems with washing it off, I recommend you do this, too! This is one of my HG products. LOVE IT and will ALWAYS use it. :)

i like it it really works it eliminates oil like crazy, i was a grease ball and now i have dry patches. use an old towel, it looks like you murdered a leprechaun after you wash it off, but it is awesome at getting rid of black heads and pushing up the dirt, may cause pimples but that is normal

Great for weekly facial treatment. My recommendation is: after applying the mask on your face, layer your problem areas with more of the mask, I find it helps

It's a great product and is worth the $5. It's the best mask in your local drugstore!

I use this whenever I feel a pimple coming or after I've popped one to prevent redness. Works pretty well.

I've used this for years, and it works well for me. Don't be discouraged if some zits look worse after initial usage, because that means it's doing what it's supposed to. Being clay based, the mask is supposed to draw oil and other impurities out of the pores. Sometimes a zit will look larger at first because the impurities were drawn closer to the surface, but not out of the skin completely - I've seen this before with spot on treatments designed to "dry up" zits. A repeat spot on treatment with this mask the next day will help to further draw the gunk of the problem zit, thus shrinking it. I recommend using this product as an addition to one's face washing regimen. It has worked well for me.

Before I bought this product I read a lot of reviews about it and I heard that it stings when you put it on your face but I never actually had that problem. It did not hurt when I put it on and it has kind of a weird smell but you get over it. I don't really see much results yet but I'm still on my first week using it so I hope I see more results sooner or later. The mask feels nice when you put it on so I actually really like this product hehe I hope this review helped :)
