Queen Helene : Mint Julep Masque

I bought this when I saw the great reviews for it. Bonus that I love anything minty, like Burt's Bees chapstick. But from reading the reviews, I was also assuming that it would help my acne. And sad to report that after 2 months of pretty consistent use, I didn't notice any help there, in fact it *might* have made it worse. That being said, every time I used it, my skin did feel refreshed, which was nice. But I guess I didn't feel like it really did anything for me other than leaving that minty feeling for a while after I took it off. Oh and it claims to reduce pore size but I really didn't notice that, especially on my nose which is where they are the most noticeable. The only mask I have found that really seems to help acne is the sulfur one from Ninja. When I have used that (I am back on it now - I took a break because it was a little more expensive than this one and was hoping to find an alternative that was cheaper), my breakouts subside almost immediately and any new zits that pop up go away quicker. So I will stick to that one for now until I can find a cheaper substitute that actually works. Sadly it wasn't Queen Helene's.

Used religiously and resulted in a temporary reduction of oil, but no benefits other than that. No doubt that this product has worked for others, but if you have acne that's worse than mild, I'd wager this probably won't do the job. I'd recommend the Ancient Aztec Clay, which is only a few bucks more expensive.

This product did nothing for me! It doesn't tighten my pores or do a thing for my complexion. It's not even usable! I will stick to my holy grail - Clinique Emergency Mask

Made my skin even oilier? And I noticed more pimples popping up after 2 times of using it. Also it STUNG when I first put it on. I wanted to like it because I liked the way my skin looked and felt afterwards, but it didn't last. But at least I finally know it's not for me bc I've been eyeing this mask at Walmart for months contemplating on buying it. I would recommend at least trying it out, it might work for you.

I have retried this mask over and over always a week after I use it I break out. pffft....the unusual little bumps not the ones you can paint the mirror with. no fun.

I guess it's just me that doesn't really like this product. I bought this one to use it once or twice a week as a facial mask. After using this for a month, i noticed absolutely no difference. I guess it works for other people

I think i may be allergic to something in it. My skin is sensitive and I usually get a couple of pimpes aroung my nose and chin area, but this made my entire face break out. I'll prabably give it away. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with sensitive skin.

Does'nt help anyhting

Tried it out because of several positive reviews but it didn't work for me.. It depends on your skin type. not rec

I have used this product in several ways. I have tried the entire mask. I have also used this as an on-the-spot treatment. Although it does tighten the skin, close pores, and draw out impurities (my pimples would dry out faster) I found that MORE pimples would form underneath. So as soon as one was gone, another was already forming. I am still searching for something. I guess if you are looking for something short-term and you don't have severe acne, this MIGHT work for you.
