So I saw a video for this product and was interested in the fact that it bubbled up instead of dried. It seemed fun so I thought I would give it a try. I ordered it from Amazon for $10.64 with free 2 day prime shipping.
From the amazon page
Ingredients
green tea extract, aloe vera leaf extract, matcha powder, charcoal powder, pomegranate extract, fermented soy extract, alantoin, peony root extract, oregano leaf extract, white willow peel extract, portulaca extract, cinnamon extract
Directions
1. Spread evenly the carbonated bubble clay mask pack all over the face 2. let it lay for 5 minutes to generate the bubbles itself. 3. to maximize the pore cleansing and exfoliating and make-up cleansing, add some water to skin and massages two more minutes 4. wash off the bubbles foams generated during the pore cleansing with warm water
They claim it is a "Pore cleaning black head removal bubble bomb mud pack."
So I started out looking like this:
As you can see I have some acne issues right now and I look like a mom who was up until 4 am studying for her Physics final.
I applied the mask (with a cute little spatula that it came with) and it immediately started bubbling up. I ended up applying a little more to the left side of my face than the right. In the end I would say that side ended up turning out better than the other side.
Some fun bubble shots during my 5 minute wait. Its a fun feeling and sounds sort of like pop rocks or rice krispies lol.
Here I am at the end of the five minute point and I began to gently rub in the mask.
End Product after washing in warm water.. All clean
As soon as I finished washing with water my face was very soft. Likely from the soapy residue left behind that I just couldn't seem to scrub off. As it dried my face did feel a mild tightening feeling that it often does after masks. It also felt very clean.
All in all it was a fun product. Their blackhead removal claim may have some validity to it as I felt like my nose looked better at the end. My nose is blackhead central on my face. I can't say whether it had any true benefit to my skin in the long run, but I plan to use it again. I will update with more info on long term use.
