    5 Stars Best Mask Yet 28/02/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Deep cleans, exfoliates, smoothes, refreshes, moisturises

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    I’m a complete Body Shop addict and have used most of their products at some time or another, so at Christmas I was thrilled to receive a product I had not yet tried; the Blue Corn 3-in-1 Deep Cleansing Mask. The usual price of this mask is £8 for 100ml, but the Body Shop quite often run offers where it can be purchased for around £5. The mask comes in a round plastic pot which is a light blue colour, with a screw off lid that is very easy to open and close. The mask contains blue corn powder to exfoliate, Kaolin clay to draw out impurities, and corn oil to moisturise, leaving skin feeling ... more

    5 Stars SCRUB AWAY THE SCRUFFY SKIN 10/07/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages LONG LASTING, GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY

    Disadvantages Disadvantages NONE

    We would all like to have glowing complexions, free from blemishes and spots wouldn’t we? Ell, if you try this scrub/mask from the Body Shop, you may well be part way there. The pot reads ‘This highly absorbent clay mask gets to the bottom of oily skin to leave your skin looking brighter and healthier. Kaolin clay digs the dirt and strips excess oils while blue corn powder gently exfoliates’. As with the majority of products in the body shop, the packaging is pretty basic – a plain blue tub with the appropriate labelling to tell you what’s inside. It also includes ... more

    4 Stars SERIOUS face mask, NOT for the faint of face... 25/02/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Leaves your skin seriously cleansed, smooth and bright, interesting product.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Pretty strong, not suitable for sensitive or even non-greasy skin

    Well, I'm sorry, but I did have to make up for my last op, an scathing attack on poor old Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Face Scrub, and make it up to my favourite skin supplies destination! Also, since I'd attacking one exfoliating product for my skin type, I decided it was best to recommend an alternative- and naturally enough, Body Shop have enough in their vast range to provide a good alternative! As you may remember if you're a regular reader of my wonderful skin-care ops (and if you aren't, why not? What awful skin you must have!) I have skin which could only be accurately described as one large ... more

    5 Stars Scrubs up nicely 05/01/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Very effective - deep cleanses as well as exfoliating

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Does dry if you leave it on too long

    Who’s it for? – Normal to Oily and Oily Skin How much is it? - £4.50 at time of writing How much do you get? – A 100ml tub, and lasts plenty long enough Packaging – a black tub with a blue label. Simple and effective like most of the Body Shop products, not overly packaged. What’s in it? – Blue Corn powder exfoliates and removes dead skin cells, oil and dirt, Kaolin clay draws out impurities and excess oil, and Yarrow extract has soothing properties. It is also fragranced with three essential oils – bergamot (a personal favourite), geranium, and ylang ... more

    4 Stars you can feel it working! 05/09/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages clean smooth skin after use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages feels a bit nippy

    okay, this mask is for problem skin. what it does is open your pores, give them a good scrubbing, and then moisturise your skin! You can really feel the sting of the product opening your pores, and i think a splash of cool water after rinsing it off would be a good idea, just to close them again. It smells pleasant, and looks fine. scrub, and moisturiser in one. I feel that it does help to purify your skin, and even though it is full of natural ingredients, you soon find out that natural can be strong too. the clay in it draws out impurities, and after use it your skin feels very clean and ... more

    5 Stars Where would I be without it? 20/02/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages It leaves the skin tighter, smoother, cleaner and whiter

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can be a little pricey

    What intrigued me more than the product itself was...blue corn? It exists? Never mind a face product not being made from fruits and flower extracts, but this is made from corn? And to top it off - from blue coloured corn? So I was interested, I wanted to try, I wanted to see how this magical new thing I just learned about, this blue corn, actually worked. So I bought it - and it costs around £6.50 which is expensive (in my humble opinion), but worth every penny. You can seriously feel the difference. It tingles, and you can feel it working on your skin. Your skin is tighter, smoother and ... more

    5 Stars Body Shop Blue Corn 3-in-1 Deep Cleansing Mask 30/07/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great value, effective skin cleanser and toner, easy to use, first-class.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can't think of any

    The Body Shop's Blue Corn Deep Cleansing Mask is a remarkable product. It's still great value for money even though it's now retailing at £7.50 per pot, it's easy to use, smells nice and, best of all, it really does make a difference to the way your skin looks. Well, it does to mine at any rate. If you are one of the multitude of people who haven't retained that flawless velvet skin of your youth as you've moved into adulthood, the blue corn cleanser is probably a godsend. I tend to have quite visible pores around the central area of my face - forehead, nose, chin; and by using the cleanser ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages does what it says

    Disadvantages Disadvantages price

    ****The Body Shop Blue Corn Scrub Mask**** I love face masks and enjoy nothing more than a lush filled bath and a face mask lol. So when i was browsing the body shop site about a month ago i purchased a couple of face masks to see if they were any good. **Body shop** They sell a wide range of skin care products and some cosmetics. I would describe them as being more up market and a little bit more expensive than the average shop. **Packaging** This comes in a light blue circle tub with a screw on lid. I quite like the packaging because i will be able to get every last bit of product out and ... more

    4 Stars you can feel it working 18/10/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages helps to rid the skin of immpurites

    Disadvantages Disadvantages can leave skin feeling a little tight

    This is one of those masks that you can really feel working on your skin. It opens up the pores and rids them of impurities. It helps to prevent break outs in spots. It's good because afterwards you sin feels really cleansed and tingles. And it looks a lot cleaner. It doesn't dry like some face masks, it actually helps to smoothe and soften the skin. I would recommend this to anyone. But buy it buy it buy it now now now now now now now now. come on I can't write mor than this just accept it okay okay okay okay ... more

    3 Stars good deep cleansing 31/03/2007
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages cleanning the skin well

    Disadvantages Disadvantages a bit stin

    after i tried all other the Body Shop face masks, i tried this. i use it once or twice per week. and the next day my face looks bright and feels tender. But it is not good as oats honey face mask. it is deep cleaning, but the nose area still not cleaned enough , need more nose pore treatment. and a little bit stin in nose, cheek area when i use it, i don't like the smell at all. but the affect of using to clean the skin is ok. About scrubbing function--before rinse off, it is dried, i don't think anyone should scrub face after the mask dired up, so in this way, it is only OK not very good.I ... more
