I've had this mask for ages and I use it whenever I feel like my skin is awful. It doesnt do anything for my acne and i dont see any difference in my skin. The only good thing about it is the price, a nice mask - just not useful for acne.

Pros:

Fun, classic green face mask
Skin feels smooth afterward
Doesn't dry me out

Cons:

No benefit for acne

A fine mask for fun, but didn't clear up my acne. Doesn't worsen it, either, thank goodness. Never used it regularly, just once every couple of weeks.

Pros:

-Feels fresh on face
-Relaxing to have on; doesn't sting, etc.
-Dries quickly
-Smells good
-Reduces oily complexion
-Reduces some redness in face
-Shrinks smaller pimples

Cons:

-Doesn't drastically reduce redness or acne or anything (for me)

For the price, this is a very good product. It leaves your skin feeling soft and supple, and I can usually notice a decrease in redness after washing it off. Depending on any zits I have at the time, it also shrinks or reduces inflammation in those. However, this is not an "acne cure" by any means, so don't get fooled into that. I use this mask several times per week and have found that it works quite well overall.

Pros:

-cheap
-easy to apply
-dries up oils
-there's a lot of product
-did not burn my skin when applied
-I don't really notice the minty smell

Cons:

-hard to wash off
-packaging kinda sucks
-feels really heavy on my skin (very pastey)
-makes skin really dry even for people with very oily skin
-not sure if it really does anything

I've read a bunch of good reviews more than bad, so I was really interested in trying this product. It didn't burn my skin when I applied it which I was worried about since I had read so many cons about that. I have really oily skin and it seemed to help dry it up. It feels really nice leaving it on, but taking it off can be a pain. I had to wash my face around 3 times to get all of the green paste off. Although, I have only used this product once, I feel like it doesn't do anything for my skin. In my opinion though, I think this masque is better for oily skin. Overall, I still don't know how I feel about this product, so I'm not going to recommend this until I try it more.

Pros:

Makes your skin soft -- make sure to apply face lotion (i use cetaphil)
Comes off easyly

Cons:

Dries out skin
at first it feels like its burning

It makes your skin soft and treats acne if you use facial mosturizer (cetaphil is the best) Wipes off great! --------------------------------------------------------- I have oily skin, and it DRIED out my skin! It was horrible! It doesnt matter how many times you have used this product it will still feel like it is burning a few minutes after applied. If you apply lotion then your definatly good to go!

Pros:

Helps clear acne.

Cons:

Dries entire face out badly.

Its pretty good for a drugstore mask. I've gone through four of these in the past few years. It does dry up acne and its really good as a over night treatment.

Pros:

Pulls out the oil in my face but that is about it.

Cons:

Does not get rid of my pimples nor blackheads.

I have tried this stuff for 3 days. I know that isnt long but i thought i would see a little difference but i didnt. All it does is pull the oil out of my face. I put it on at night and rinse it off. When i wake up, i have little white stuff on my face( the oil). Thts all it does for me.

Pros:

It feels really nice after using it. I love the mint smell.

Cons:

It is kinda hard to wash off. Also it has perfume in it which can make some people break out.

I would just recommend this to be more like a monthly thing for stress relief instead of a every night basis........

Pros:

Gets rid of redness of pimples

Cons:

Doesn't work that quickly

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

Pros:

Deeply cleans skin, purges oil from pores, softens skin, improves skin texture

Cons:

Kinda abrasive, burning sensation when applied, results are mediocre

This mask is worth the money as an aid to combat extra oil on your skin. It smells wonderful, has a nice creamy texture and is most beneficial in improving the all around texture of your skin. If you don't like tingling or burning, than don't use this product. The sensation when applying this mask can be uncomfortable, but will subside after a few minutes. All in all, I'd have to say that the results of this mask are mediocre. I found more success with the egg white mask. If you're looking for an accessible way to clean the oil from your skin, and you don't have much time, I would definitely recommend this product. Be sure to spread it evenly over the surface of your skin, and don't leave it on more than thirty minutes. This mask drains oil from your pores in a small amount of time, and this is the oil you want to remove, not lay stagnant on your skin.
