Black heads gone!
I love this scrub! I have very sensitive skin and only recently did I start scrubbinh my face 1x a week, my biggest concern was preventing breakouts which this product does. What I didn't expect is how smooth and flawless my nose would look! 10/10 product and very easy to apply, I love the sensation when it dries out as well. So far it has never made my face irritated so I am very very happy!

TINY! Talk about shrinkflation!
Been using this for 30 years. Suddenly the large size for $20 is somehow a tiny travel size for $20 at Target. Nope. Would recommend, but NOT buying from Target!

Loving this mask!
Ive used this mask off and on but only recently started using it consistently 1-2 times a week. It really evens my skin tone and makes it look so clean afterwards. I feel bad for the people that its make their skin turn pink or red. I use the checks and balances cleanser and then the mask. I make sure to wash off any make up first so there are no weird chemical reactions on my skin. Im able to let the mask sit and dry on my skin while I read a chapter or 2 of my book and then I wash it off and use the mega mushroom moisturizer! So fresh and so clean!

Product Changed from Charcoal to Clear Sudsy Mask?
I have used this wonderful mask for at least 30 years with excellent results. I just bought this one at local store. Not sure if I got a tampered product or they changed the formula - it is no longer charcoal gray - its a clear goo. Nothing on label says its new or changed. When I washed it off, the water was sudsy. Don't know what to think of the situation but it is going back. Why do companies feel the need to change the formulas of their proven winners? And how are you to tell if the mask is dried since its clear?

Burning Skin!
I was excited to try this but within 2 minutes of having the mask on my face, my skin started burning. I kept it on a few more minutes thinking it was probably just drying on my skin, but I was wrong. When I washed it off my face was red with even redder dots all over. I have sensitive skin, but have never had issues with the brand in the past. Time to look for another…

The only clay mask that works for me
I've used this mask on and off for over 10 years. I shop around for others sometimes because this one is kind of expensive. Lately I've been trying others that have a similar price point though and even they can't compare. I have super oily skin and large pores and this mask is the best thing short of a professional chemical peel that I've found to keep my pores clear. I've tried so many other hyped up clay masks and none of them do much of anything but with this one I can see a difference immediately after washing it off. I leave it on for as long as I can stand it, sometime even overnight which maybe is not recommended but for me it works. I'm going to stop wasting my money on other clay masks and just stick with this one from now on even if the price tag is a bit painful.

Combo Skin Lifesaver!
I am in my mid twenties and have struggled with acne for about 15 years or so. Additionally, I have large pores, uneveness, redness, oily, sensitive skin, just about everything you can put into a skin type. I've tried every solution under the sun, serums, creams, spot treatments, you name it, and NOTHING has cleared my skin more than this product. I bought it as a fun Valentine's spa date night idea and it's genuinely become a holy grail staple in my skincare routine (which is not extensive btw, I use the mask 1-2 times/week and pair with my go to moisturizer. simple but effective!) I leave the mask on for 15-20 min and gently wipe off with a slightly damp washcloth and immediately can tell the difference. My skin glows, my pores feel tight and clean. The following morning I'll notice my breakouts healing. It's even helped with toning down redness and existing acne scars. I can't say enough good things about this product - I've been really insecure about my skin for quite some time, especially as a lady in her mid twenties still struggling with acne. In just 2 weeks, this product has made a noticeable difference on my skin and my confidence is through the roof. Highly, highly recommend. If you are struggling with the price, know that a little goes a long way, and once a week is still enough for a noticeable difference!

Works for mature and teen skin!
I'm 43 with an oily T zone and large pores on my nose. Hereditary, sadly. I've been embarassed by my large pores for decades. My kiddo is 16 typical combo teen skin. Breakouts but nothing cystic. Shes good about being consistent with skin care. I didnt expect to love this mask as much as i do. It's much less messy than other clay masks and dries faster. My pores are visibly clearer and smaller snd my skin smoother after use every single time. My kiddo uses it and it smooths her texture and helps draw the ick out for her as well. The only drawback is price but i find tubes on sale here and there and it's so worth it. I use 2-3 times a week. She only needs it once a week. We love this mask!!

Reduction in enlarged pores
This product is amazing. Saw results in two uses. Skin feels tighter. Pores reduced in appearance. I'm going to use once a week. Hooked for sure. Doesn't take much product either to apply.

Nice but messy mask
I like it, it cleans my skin well. Overall a good product. I do dislike how messy it is when washing off and sometimes even have trouble getting it all off my face. Takes longer than id like.

Great Product, but shrinkflation
I've been using this charcoal mask for 8 years and when I got my last shipment… I thought I purchased the small one by mistake. I checked the website to be sure, and nope. I noticed the increase in price from $26 to $35, but they ALSO reduced the size from 3.4oz to 2.5oz. I did the math, it's nearly double the price per ounce.

Cleans pores thoroughly
I use this one weekly to clear my pores. With work, I'm often outdoors and sweating, I get dirty or dusty or metal on me. I use this mask to clean and purify my pores. I haven't had break outs since using this.
