This is a good mask for anyone with combination/oily skin. It doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or tight. It helps my skin look clear and removes oil and impurities from my skin. I find I need to...

I found I had to use to much of this Mask in order for it to spread all over my face. It worked ok. I won't buy it again. With the US exchange it's pricey for a mask

I'm not a huge fan of this mask, but I'm a little surprised by the many 1/5 reviews still. My main gripe with this mask is that it's not quite worth the money. It's clarifying and deeply cleansing,...

I don't like this mask. When I applied it I found it stung badly on my skin and left it looking red and patchy. It's too harsh even for my non sensitive combination skin

I find this to be an effective mask for decongesting my large, clogged pores in the T-zone area. I leave this on for about 20-30 minutes. I like that it contains kaolin and bentonite clays along...
