I usually base my Amazon purchases off reviews, and after seeing how many positive reviews there were for this mask and for the right price, I decided to give it a try. I among a lot of you, have been suffering from acne since I was 14 years old. I have done two rounds of Accutane over the years and now at 24 years old, I recently had a EXTREME breakout, leaving my face littered with acne and little pink scars. I decided to try another route and was put on a 30 day antibiotic as well as Aczone (AM) and Tazorac (PM) creams. I finally started to clear up and wanted to get a jump start on scar treatment now that i've achieved some control of my acne.
I think Mud Masks are often times overlooked for their efficiency. Dead Sea masks in particular are loaded with magnesium, sodium, potassium and calcium and when applied to your face, it draws out toxins that may be present in your skin cells from your everyday diet that ultimately build up bacteria and cause acne breakouts. I also am a BIG fan of the fact this stuff is all natural, and cruelty free. I try to never use any products that are tests on animals... So this was a big plus for me.
**First Application Review**
- The consistency of the mask is more like a gel-like consistency, not clay. It applies nicely, a little goes a long way. After initial application, I waited 2-3 minutes, then applied a second layer for a thicker mask.
- I am not a fan of strong chemical smells that I find in a lot of over the counter skin products, but this mask has a very mild and lightly natural scent, which is appreciated.
- Since I applied a thicker mask, it took about 25 minutes to fully dry. During this process it felt cool, crisp, and tightened as it dried.
- Washing it off, the gel-like consistency reactivated with water and I found it easier to wash it off with a wash cloth.
*** Normally in the mornings when I wake up, I have low-moderately oily skin. After using this mask for the first time last night, I woke up with my skin being less oily than normal. Although I wasn't expecting my scars to magically disappear, I did see a small noticeable difference in the 'pink hue' of my acne scars.
I will continue to use this mask over the course of the next couple of weeks and provide additional updates as I do!
*** UPDATE 3/4/16 ***
I haven't had a chance to use this as much as I would like to - life is so busy! However since I have bought it, I have tried a few masks. My scars are healing slowly but surely. I can't tell if it's natural healing or if this mask is helping (scar wise) but I love the product either way. It's a convenient way to refresh at home and as my initial review stated, it does seem to maintain the amount of oil my face produces and keeps it to a minimum. Using it more than twice a week would probably cause too much dryness, but my skin always feels SO clean and clear when I wake up after using the night before and just that alone I appreciate. : )

Awesome....if you get the right batch
Updating my review based on the bottles that I've received. This deserve a 5 stars if you get the right batch. I order from the same seller at least 4x and each time the bottles were different. I find it kind of shady that all the bottles were of different sizes yet the product label still show the same ounces. Size difference aside, the actual products also varies in consistency, texture, smell and most importantly, its effectiveness as a mud mask product. I included a picture, the one on the right is the correct product, it's thicker, lighter in color in the bottle and has a nice smell to it. The one on the left is crappy and I think it's a cheaper made batch. It's runny, doesn't smell like anything and simply put, does not work. The cheap one, when you apply it makes your skin extremely itchy and does not remove any blackheads. The proper product will go on smooth and does not cause any irritation.Down side is that there is no way to predict which batch you will get, my girlfriends and I purchased over 10 bottles for personal use and as gifts for friends and we got 4 good bottles and 6 bad ones. I did return the bad batch as was lucky enough to receive the legit one after complaining to Amazon.
