Do you use a deep cleansing/clarifying MASK?

bluejeansluvr — Mon, 07 Apr 2014 19:57:06 GMT

What brand? Do you feel that it cleanses your pores really well? What have you tried that you don't like?

I loved Clinique's deep cleansing emergency masque that was discontinued, and I've tried the new acne line mask they have but don't like it as well as the one they used to sell.

I use the White Mineral Clay Mask from Lancome to keep my pores under control. It is also great to pack on a zit overnight to keep it from getting larger.

I've used the ""Freeman Avocado and Oatmeal Clay Mask"" for decades. Still love it and it's 'tight budget-worthy'. 8)

Freeman has a new charcoal one that is meant to detox and pull out your pores. I'm looking for it in stores, but will end up ordering it online! It is also affordable. Many stores carry the try me packages, as does Sally's. They allow you to sample them and then go back for the full size, though that is very affordable as well!

An oldie, but a goodie....a couple of times a month I'll do a Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask.

I have three I love.

Origins Out of Trouble - this is my go-to for occasional acne. You can use it all over, but I prefer it as a spot treatment and I sleep with it on.

Origins Clear Improvement - I first used this charcoal mask in the 90s and it's a great one for clearing out pores.

Boscia Black Luminizing Mask - I love this peel off mask - it's like a giant pore strip for your whole face. It can be hard to peel off, so I like to apply it with gaps between areas of my face. That allows me to peel up smaller sections without so much tugging at my skin.

I have sensitive skin and none of these have caused any problems for me. I normally don't use the black masks more than once a week, but I've used the Out of Trouble mask for spot treating several nights in a row without any sensitivity issues being triggered by it.

Skinn Deep Pore Vacuum Mask, this one does not turn hard on your face. Can follow with Skinn Watermelon Mask for hydration.

I use ReVive's Glycolic Peel twice a month. You first wipe your face with a pad then apply the serum for five minutes, rinse your face and go about your business. FABULOUS results.

I've also used this. It can sting a bit on application but it is super cheap for the amount you get. Most recently I tried Paula's Choice mask for oily skin, and I like it too, but it is more expensive.

ETA: Forgot to say I usually use a mask once a week.

Skinn's Pore Vacuum works great for me and it feels good.

Another one I liked a lot was C. Booth Tomato Mask. All of a sudden it was gone. I really miss that one.

I also second this one. You can get it in a huge jar on Amazon and mix it with apple cider vinegar. It foams up and you apply/paint in on your face. It takes a bit to harden, then cracks and comes off in clumps. I do it in the tub for a nice long soak, 20+ minutes to cure. It is great all over or applied to targeted areas.

I just got the Paula's Choice one too. It is good for frequent use. I use the clay one above weekly/bi-weekly due to its strength. Too much and it dries you out even if you are oily, so I also paint it on my targeted TZone if my cheeks are too dry.

I mix equal parts clay and water, usually 1 tablespoon of water and 1 tablespoon clay. I do not apply to my forehead. I apply heavily on nose and chin and lightly on cheeks.
