Claims vs. Reality
Enriched with Panthenol and Glycerin - the ultimate hydration boost for a refreshed look. Specially formulated with a unique blend of 7 types of ceramides, fatty acids, and natural moisturising factors, this moisturiser not only hydrates, but also fortifies your skin barrier. Perfect for daily use, the lightweight and cooling gel texture soothes irritated skin while quickly absorbing into the skin without any greasy residue.
A highly intensive, heavy-duty clay mask engineered to rapidly dehydrate severe oil pools and active pimples. It utilizes Kaolin clay as its primary absorbent base, pairing it with Salicylic Acid to plunge deep into the follicle channel. The extreme cooling sensation is driven by a potent triad of Tea Tree Oil, Peppermint Oil, and pure Menthol. While incredibly effective at sucking out excess sebum, this combination is incredibly aggressive and will absolutely strip the skin barrier if left on for too long or used too frequently.
The Reality: Kaolin is a highly porous natural clay that acts like a microscopic sponge, physically drawing out heavy sebum and environmental dirt from the skin surface flawlessly.
The Reality: The synergistic combination of BHA (Salicylic Acid) dissolving the inner pore plug and Tea Tree Oil suppressing bacterial growth rapidly shrinks active blemish nodes safely.
The Reality: This is an aggressive purifying mask. By design, it extracts oils and moisture from the skin, leaving it feeling tight and deeply cleansed, requiring immediate hydration afterwards.
👍 Formulator Pros
- Delivers an incredibly satisfying, ice-cold tingle that feels intensely refreshing on hot, sweaty skin.
- Combines physical oil absorption (Kaolin) with chemical pore clearing (BHA) in a single 15-minute treatment.
- Highly effective at rapidly shrinking large, painful, underground cystic pimples when used as a spot treatment.
👎 Potential Downsides
- Contains Menthol and Peppermint, which act purely as volatile sensitizers and can irritate the delicate eye area severely.
- Leaves a tight pulling sensation that forces the immediate application of a hydrating toner to restore comfort.
- The inclusion of Isopropyl Myristate in the base is contradictory, as it is a known comedogenic ester.

Common Questions
What the community asks most — answered with formulation facts.
Why does it feel so cold and tingly on my face?+
That intense sensation comes from the high concentration of Peppermint Essential Oil and pure Menthol. While it feels refreshing, it is actually highly sensitizing. Keep the mask far away from your eyes to prevent watering and severe irritation safely.
Can I use this every day to clear my acne faster?+
Absolutely not. This is a heavy-duty clay mask designed to extract oil. Using it every day will destroy your skin barrier, causing severe dehydration and forcing your skin to produce even more oil in panic. Use it a maximum of 2 times a week cleanly.
Can I leave it on overnight?+
No. Clay masks should never be left on overnight. Once the clay dries completely, it stops absorbing oil and begins absorbing the vital water out of your skin cells. Wash it off after exactly 15 to 20 minutes smoothly.
