What the gurus are saying

One expert found this clay mask genuinely enjoyable and called it really nice, though sponsorship was involved in that take. However, another person reported their skin felt significantly irritated after using it, which means those with sensitive or reactive skin may want to patch-test first on a small area before applying it to the full face. The mixed response here suggests it works well for some skin types but not others.

"I put the mask on after I got out of my bath and my skin feels like it's on fire. My skin is really burning. I've used this mask so many times, but my skin is increasingly on fire and so I just washed the mask off within just a few minutes. I could not keep it on my face, my skin was burning so bad. I went back and looked at the ingredients the next day and right at the bottom is an ingredient called farnesol. This is one of those fragrant ingredients that carry such a potent irritation potential that it has to be listed separately. Why is it in a product that is marketed for a compromised skin barrier? You don't want to expose it to anything that is going to potentially irritate it because when your skin barrier is a little bit weak or damaged it's very vulnerable."

"It's a clay mask that's fragrance-free and it helps to soak up excess sebum from the surface of the skin from within the pore. I rather enjoy this."

"You apply it to clean skin that's dry, and you can put it on the entire face or just to more problematic areas like the T-Zone. You hang out for about 10 minutes and then it rinses off easily. It's a really nice clay mask."
