    What the gurus are saying

    This mask degreases oily skin without the excessive drying that plagues many clay masks. It combines oil-absorbing clays with soothing, moisturizing actives like mugwort extract, oat kernel extract, and beta glucan. People with oily skin can apply it daily to their whole face or just the T-zone, leaving it on for 10 to 15 minutes before rinsing.

    "The Isntree Real Mugwort Clay Mask is a long-standing favorite of mine. It has a variety of different clays: kaolin, bentonite, and Canadian colloidal clay. While the clays absorb excess oil, it's also very moisturizing. People with oily skin tend to believe that because they're oily they're moisturized, but oil and sebum is actually not that great of a moisturizer and you can still have dry skin. Using a product that is too drying may end up irritating your skin in the long run. So I like this clay mask because it has oat kernel extract, which is very moisturizing, beta glucan, and panthenol. It's fragrance free. You can apply it to the skin after cleansing, say in the morning. You can apply it to the entire face or you can just use it on problematic areas like your T-zone, leave it on, and then rinse it off with just water or your facial cleanser. The clays as they absorb the oil can help minimize the appearance of the pore opening as well."

    "This is a favorite product that appeared in my best acne skincare video. I like this calendar because it includes full-size products, not little teeny tiny things. It has mugwort extract or artemisia, which is a botanic extract that may be anti-inflammatory, and a variety of different types of clay that can help absorb excess oil from the surface of the skin and from within the pores. It's not overly drying and I really like it a lot."
    BEST ACNE SKIN CARE PRODUCTS OF 2021 @DrDrayzday
    "This year I tried out the Isntree Real Mugwort Clay Mask. It has artemisia in it, which is mugwort, a botanical extract that is anti-inflammatory and may be helpful for healing and recovery. For the clays, it has kaolin, bentonite, and Canadian colloidal clay. It also has oak kernel extract and willow bark extract, which are anti-inflammatory, and it's moisturizing with beta glucan as a humectant. I really enjoy this—you can do this as tolerated daily. You put it on the skin or just on the areas most prone to being oily like the T-zone, leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes, and rinse it off. This one is definitely worth mentioning because clay masks can be helpful for people with oily skin. It does a good job degreasing the skin without drying you out, which is key, because some clay masks can just be too drying and have irritating scented ingredients that can worsen your acne. I think this one is good."

    "I really like the Real Mugwort Clay Mask. This is good for those of you who have excess oiliness and shininess on the surface of the skin. It has clays in it that help absorb that from the surface of the skin and from the top part of the pore and help in improving the overall look of the skin, allowing your cosmetics to go on better."

    "I got this product and I really like it. It is by Isntree, and it is their Real Mugwort Clay Mask. This is awesome. It's pretty moisturizing like the Cetaphil product. It has kaolin clay in it to absorb that excess oiliness from the surface of the skin, and it's got artemisia in it which is anti-inflammatory."

    "This mask is the Real Mugwort Clay Mask from ISNTREE, and they are one of my favorite K Beauty brands. Mugwort is actually a plant that's antibacterial and antifungal, and this one specifically is amazing for sebum care, so if you do have an oily area such as I do in my T-zone, it's really really helpful. It does mildly exfoliate."

    What the evidence says.

    Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

    Humectants and emollients

    Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.
