100% OF CHICKS DIG IT
Leaves my skin nice and bright
I received this product in a FFF box. I love how it goes on purple (I know this doesn't really make a difference, as the colour washes off... but little things make using a product like this all the more enjoyable). This is the best mud mask I've used, and I like how it doesn't dry out my skin.
Must have
This is such an amazing mask, it cleanses my skin amazingly, without leaving it feeling dry. I like to use this mask every week and I feel this allows me to see the best results. 100% recommend this mask!
Skin feels so good!
I got this mask in my fabfitfun box for summer, and admittedly never used it until tonight. I noticed that my skin looked pretty dull and was probably in need of a good exfoliation, so I had a little spa night for myself. I LOVE this mask. It burned for a good minute when I put it on, but I'm kinda attributing that to the fact that I had the skin of an ogre and hadn't exfoliated in probably a good few years. It deff didn't feel like one of those cheap masks from shoppers or the sephora sheet masks. It felt very high end. It was very easy to remove with warm water and though my skin still feels a little tingly, it feels firmer and SO much softer. Bonus points because I could see in the clay where I'm going to have wrinkles haha! Overall this was a very good product.
In my opinion, the only place that it lost points was in the price department. I looked it up on amazon and saw that if I wanted to repurchase, it was going to cost me $22.50 AMERICAN. That's like $30 CAD for a pretty small tube. My cheap self probably won't pay that again, but hey, if you have the money it's def worth it.
I would buy this product again!
I was given the opportunity to try out the new multi-masking kit from generation clay. Multi-masking is a new technique to using face masks in which you use different masks on different areas of your face depending on what you wish to tackle. I was kindly gifted three different masks by Generation Clay and Blaq Mask in their new supersize travel bottles, making them perfect for taking away too!
My initial thoughts of the masks is that they work really well and left my skin feeling so soft and smooth. Having been suffering with dry and problematic skin for the past couple of months, these masks couldn't have come into my life at a better time! I will take you through each mask individually and explain the benefits of them all. However, if you want to see a quick video of how it works and the results then head on over to my instagram page @kkbeauty_xx where I posted a short clip!
The first mask that I used was the Detoxifying Charcoal Clay Mask. I applied this to my T-Zone area (forehead and nose). There are four main benefits of this mask; Refine, Purify, Brighten and Soothe. The masks refines the skin by reducing oil and minimising the appearance of pores. This is the main reason I applied this mask to my T-Zone area as my nose has a large number of pores and these are the two areas of my face that get quite oily. Secondly, it purifies the skin as it draws out impurities, toxins and pollutants. As well as this, it brightens the skin by rejuvenating dull, tired skin and fading of dark spots. Finally, this mask soothes the skin as it works as a calming agent to reduce inflammation.
Initially, i have been very impressed with how this mask turned out. As I still have only used it once I'd be interested to see if I keep seeing the continued benefits with continued use. The mask has quite a sweet smell compared others I have used before. I have noticed with using clay masks they dry up very quickly making them harder to apply, however, this mask applied quickly and easily with a brush (I tend to use a foundation brush to apply my face masks). The pores on my nose were visibly reduced and my skin hasn't seemed to get very oily throughout the day! I would definitely recommend this mask for any who gets an oily T-Zone like me!
The second mask I used as part of my multi-masking kit was the Ultra Violet Brightening Purple Clay Mask. I applied this mask across my cheeks. Again this mask has four benefits for your skin; Nourish, Illuminate, Brighten and Refine. It nourishes skin by reducing free radical damage and slowing down the ageing process. Secondly, it illuminates the skin by boosting hydration and collagen production. As with the charcoal mask it brighten and refines the skin.
I feel as though with this mask I will need to continue to use it on a regular basis to see a large difference, whereas with the charcoal mask I noticed a difference almost immediately. However, my skin felt hydrated and smooth after the first use. This is one I will definitely keep using and will do an updated review after i have been using it as part of my skincare routine for a couple of months.
The third mask in the multi-masking kit is the Urban Defence Purifying Pink Clay Mask. I applied this mask across my jaw bones, chin and upper lip. The benefits of this mask are the same as the benefits of the charcoal mask.
As noticed with the charcoal mask, I immediately noticed a difference in my skin after using this mask. The skin around my cheeks and jaw bones has been problematic in the last few months and even though I have only used this once, I noticed that the amount of dry skin I have had has reduced. I have been suffering with patches of dry, flaky skin on my face and been trying to keep my face hydrated, however, nothing seems to be working. Since using these masks my face seems to be a lot more hydrated and the patches of dry skin have visibly reduced.
I would definitely recommend using these Generation Clay face masks to everyone and anyone, no matter your skin type! You may not need them all, or like me would love to try them all out! I love trying out different face masks and skin care products as each product works differently on everyone's skin and if your skin is anything like mine it is constantly changing. Some months I have amazing, flawless skin that doesn't trouble me (touchwood that continues) yet other months I have problematic skin where I keep breaking out and suffer from dry skin patches.
I am thankful to Andreas and all the team at Generation Clay and Blaq Mask for allowing me the opportunity to try out these amazing masks! I was definitely amazed at the benefits of these products from even just one use and they are products I will be working into my weekly skincare routine!
