Face Masks > Clay Mask Face Masks

Advantages: Works better than any other face mask I have ever used.
Disadvantages: Not for use on very dry skin. Smells really bad at first. Scares the vicar.

Aveda - Deep Cleansing Herbal Clay Masque The company behind the products: ******************************** Aveda was founded in 1978 by an Austrian called Horst Rechelbacher. After many years spent as a CEO in the cosmetics industry, Rechelbacher decided to go out on his own. However he wanted to do more than start yet another beauty house, his aims were a little loftier than that. The result was Aveda - a plant-based cosmetics company run on ...
...on fair-trade principles. Today, Aveda are considered the Granddaddy of the organic and ethical beauty business because they laid down the roadmap for others to follow to make a profit in the ‘green’ area of the market. I don’t have particularly oily skin and I am sure I probably suffer from the affliction of combination skin, a porous nose prone to the occasional spot and dry panels across my cheeks when it is very hot or cold. I started using ... Read review

Advantages: Cost, Improved skin tone
Disadvantages: Smell and appearance may be off-putting to ones not used to beauty treatments!!!!

...such a successful international franchise. Avon now has one of the largest ranges of products in the beauty, toiletry and cosmetic market - I possibly could not even name all the products in one range here, let alone describe them. Infact, I would be spending the next ten minutes describing just one of two Avon products that I decided to buy and try out. SKIN TYPE The season comes with its fair shares of fun, frolic and partying, however, on the ...
...AVON I have used the Avon cellu-sculpt and really liked the way it felt on my skin and hence decided to settle for an Avon face mask. My first stop, the Avon website had many bargains, offers and combined 2-in-1/3-in-1 deals. However, I was not interested in sampling other products and decided to surf the world wide web to compare prices on various Avon face masks. Avon has numerous masks for every type of skin like the pore-fection mask, anew alpha ... Read review

Advantages: Improves the appearance of pores and blackheads; leaves skin feeling soft and clean.
Disadvantages: Its appearance (a bit like thin mud) might put potential users off.

I brought this face mask because despite having quite good skin, I do suffer from imperfections from time to time, in particular blackheads around my nose (sorry a bit gross I know!). I wanted a mask that was going to help draw out the impurities, which contribute to the formation of blackheads - so this Bontanics mask sounded like the ideal one to try. What does it do? Containing burdock extract, the "condition clay mask" claims to "cleanse pore ...
...that the mask contains a negative electrical charge, which helps to draw out impurities in the skin. The burdock is supposed to be be purifying to "keep pores clean". If you believe the information then this mask will leave your skin smooth and soft, without over drying. All this sounds pretty good huh? I must admit, I was a bit sceptical about the "negative electrical charge", but then I know that clay is used in loads of face masks, so decided ... Read review

Advantages: Helps clear pores and reduce appearance of blackheads
Disadvantages: Results don't last

...liked other products in the Boots Botanics Pore Perfecting range enough to not be put off by the negative reviews, I decided to buy this face mask as an intensive treatment for my blackhead-prone face. Made specifically for problem skin, it promised to draw out impurities and absorb excess oil without blocking your pores, and I figured that anything that could do that would be a welcome addition to my skincare routine. Armed with a £2.50 skincare ...
...I took it to the counter and hoped for the best. The mask comes in a small transparent tube with a simple green and white Botanics label. The contents are creamy in colour and the whole thing looks a lot like the Botanics moisturisers, so unless you know exactly where to find it you may need to look quite carefully at the displays. On the label, the mask is described as containing rosemary to protect and clarify, and it states on the back that the ... Read review

Advantages: good price, and works well
Disadvantages: could smell a little better!!

...the sea-clay face mask by Christy did not smell as nice as some of the others...but then I suppose it does not really matter, as it isn't going to be staying on your face when you go out is it? This is a brilliant mask for deep cleansing. The effects on my skin lasted for about a week, which is quite good considering the price of 1 sachet. My skin felt really...ummm...clean after using this mask! it sounds a little obvious but with some masks you ...
...on, but went a little hard, and i generally prefer masks that stay wet because you can get on with other things like talking, smiling, (frowning!) and stuff. I could feel this mask cleaning, and my skin felt fresh. ************* What I liked: ************* the price :) 99p (or less in some stores!) the long-lasting effects the fact that you can feel it cleaning **************** What I disliked: **************** smell the fact that the ...
