 Where have you been all my life? Jan 15, 2010
By R. Morris
I am 32 years old with extremely sensitive skin. I have acne, eczema, large pores and my skin will dry into a red rash due to changing weather or caused by some products. No amount of Retional, Accutane, Protiviti, Clearisil etc etc has ever taken care of my problems.
I just used this mask for the first time (with applecider vinegar) and my skin feels super soft. My pores have shrunk to the point that I am using one of those (horrific) magnifying mirrors and they still look small. I did feel the tightening and pulling that others have described but it was satisfying to know the product was working. My face did turn red immediately after the treatment, but that faded within 20 minutes. I am VERY pleased with the result and will use this again frequently.
I have used clay-based face masks before, including the bar and tube from Fresh, a mud mask from Sabon, and also fresh masks from Lush (the Chocolate clay one is my fave). None of those masks have produced as good a result as this product. PLUS this clay was far less expensive than the products i just mentioned.
A big thank you to the reviewer who said that you can find this at Wholefoods. I was able to find it there for $6 after reading about it on amazon yesterday. I only had to use 1 tablespoon worth of the product (plus 1T of liquid) to cover my entire face and neck so I will expect this jar will last me a year or more!
I'll have to provide an update if it helps my Acne but its too soon to tell...

 Suction Nov 26, 2009
By Gitona
Let me tell you...if you ever want to know what it's like to have a black hole on your face then all you have to do is get this product. If you mix it just right not only will you feel pulsating and tightening, you will feel as if your face has moved( such as your lips puckering) but it really hasn't. It's pretty amazing. I leave it on for as long as I want or can take. It doesn't burn me or anything(though it did burn one of my friends with bad acne, but I think that was a good sign.) It just kind of sets me in stone. I make sure that when I mix it with Bragg's Organic Apple Cider that the texture is silky and whipped. No clumps! I have seen that some use water but meh...I say go by the actual directions.
I think one of the misconceptions about a product like this is that your face becomes smooth when you scrub it off. This stuff is extremely hard to get off like that. I recommend taking a rag and soaking it with warm water and dabbing it generously on the clay so that it softens somewhat. THEN scrub/wipe it off.
I only do this once a week because my skin is pretty normal and do not want to dry it out. So far the best benefit this clay has given is it's blackhead loosening. I always put a nose strip on right after I wash this off. When I pull that thing off I get almost all the blackheads on my nose. It makes me very happy. Now I know some people have T-Zone blackheads so I am sure you could also use strips on your chin and forehead.
This product is relatively inexpensive and the apple cider is too. It's worth a try.

Really fantastic stuff, has multi-uses. Oct 24, 2009
By M. hallman

I've been using this for years and it is fantastic and nothing short of miraculous. I've used it on poison ivy, eczema, zits, blackhead, large pores, bruises, chigger and bug bites. I had a very severe bout of poison ivy, so I mixed up a large quantity of this stuff (cover and put in fridge any stuff you mix up,) and every night applied a pack and covered it with paper towels which I taped it down to keep in place & slept with it over night. The next morning I hosed off the dried clay and could see the poison ivy was losing it's punch, less ooze, itch & redness. This stuff pulls the toxins out of your skin! Would be great for teenagers troubled skin as it's the best clay to use on the face. I apply a thick layer and let it completely dry. It makes you skin pulsate as it's drying and I noticed my skin is more taut, pores smaller and clean, smoother and clearer after use.
I also used it on an allergic reaction I had to some sunscreen where my chest broke out in zits and after one application but after one application of this clay the next day everything had cleared up.
F.Y.I. - to avoid a clogged drain, I peel the clay off after it's dried, or hose down outside because the dried clay (if it goes down the drain) can cause a clog. You can also use it in a bath as a detoxifier for the whole body. Just sprinkle in the water and it melts (no risk of drain clogging with this method.) This is a must for any emergency medical kit.
More FYI: Mix in a NON-METAL CONTAINER using NON -METAL UTENSILS. Instead of mixing with water you can use apple cider vinegar (I have also used aloe juice to amp up the healing properties.) A great cheap beauty mask that really detox's and purifies.. Any leftovers can be covered and put in the fridge for further use. Add a little water if it dries up a bit while in the fridge.

I LOVE this stuff!! Dec 22, 2005
By gilroygal

I have been using this for about a week. I mix it with apple cider vinegar, and already my pimples have shrunk, and when I use the mask, the blackheads squeeze out and rinse away. I highly recommend this for anyone who has been a long time acne sufferer!!

The best mask ever invented Dec 28, 2007
By Dr. Denny
"Drdenny"
I have been using this clay mask on my face and neck for nearly 25 years. If you have only one product to use--this is IT!. It is spectacular for acne skin-----draws and gets rid of --totally. For adult skin, it is better than a deep cleaning pore facial. It evens the color of the skin and minimizes lines. It tightens the skin and keeps it clean. I cannot recommend this product more.
Just make sure you mix it with apple cider vinegar, let it dry and when you are ready to remove it,wet it down first in the shower and use your fingers to remove the hardened clay. Your skin will be red for minutes but that goes away quickly. This mask draws! Use a moisturizer after if your skin is dry.
This mask works best when it is used-regularly. I always use it the afternoon before going to an event. My skin looks its best that evening. With regular use, pimples and acne are gone. With regular use, you don't need foundation or cover-ups. All you have to do is find the twenty minutes to leave it on ---I lay down and relax then---and then take a shower to remove it.
Men like this as much as women----simple way to keep the skin looking younger without too much bother.
