REVIEW:

This clay mask comes in a plastic pouch, containing about 100gms of the product. It's a gray coloured mask in the form of powder. Comes with instructions on how to make & use the mask along with brief details about the properties of this clay mask.
Okay so the first thing is that, I am not very happy with the packaging. And it would have been so much better if it came in a plastic jar/tub instead of a plastic pouch. So the first thing I had to do was to transfer the entire product in to an empty jar. This way it was easier for me to use & work with, without creating a mess. 
One thing which I have noticed while preparing this mask is that for some unknown reasons the clay mask doesn't blend in to a proper paste like form, no matter how much water quantity I adjust, it always & always ends up with those clay lumps and they are very difficult for me to work with. I usually use Rose water to make this mask but have also used tap water. And in both the cases, it just doesn't make in to a good, thick paste. 
Now the results: I'm extremely amazed by the results of this mask! I honestly never thought it would work much for me as a lot of local masks do not work for me. But this one has to be different definitely. The moment I took off the mask and washed my face, voila! My face looked so bright & clearer than before. It looked very clean. I closely looked for my blackheads and I was shocked to see that it did work to remove them to some extent too. I wouldn't say that all my blackheads were gone but yes it cleared up a lot of them! So this mask basically draws out all the dirt and impurities from the pores thus making my face look cleaner than before. 
I would definitely recommend this mask to you, if you're someone who is struggling with a lot of blackheads & some acne since it does reduce acne over the time too. I get occasional zits & pimples and so far this mask has worked by resolving my acne issue. Although I'm not sure about how good this will work for all-year round acne prone skin. But this definitely is worth a try in my opinion!
I use this mask once weekly. The mask dries up on my face pretty quickly, within ten to fifteen minutes. Easily removed with water.


Price & Availability: I bought this mask online, from Jo's Organic Beauty Facebook Page. Worth PKR 500 for 100gms.

Points in favour:

  • The quantity of the clay mask is enough to last you for two to three months.
  • The mask works pretty efficiently in clearing out all the dirt & impurities from the pores, making face appear clearer and cleaner than before. 
  • Works for my occasional zits & pimples by resolving them. 
  • Price is super reasonable.
  • Makes a good home based weekly cleansing & detoxifying mask
  • Good for all skin types, particularly combination to oily skin type.

Points not in favour:
  • Packaging is not at all good.
  • Not available at local drug stores. Can only be bought online.
  • The mask doesn't blend in to a good thick paste for some reason. And always end up with a few thick clay lumps.

    1. This clay mask is full of Organic ingredients, no chemicals, nothing artificial. Which makes it good for people with sensitive skin too in my opinion.

    1. Yes I have tried Orglow. Orglow does nothing near to clearing up my blackheads nor does it do anything for my acne. Orglow however, makes my skin soft and brightens it up.
      But this mask works for me in terms of thoroughly clearing up my pores & blackheads to some extent too.
