Types of Exfoliating and Cleansing Masks
Clay masks
Clay masks contain natural clay substances that deep cleanse by drawing impurities to the skin's surface as it dries and tightens. Clay masks are ideal for people with normal to oily skin who would like to absorb excess oil without stripping their skin.
Peel-off masks
Peel-off masks come in gel, plastic, or paraffin wax subtypes, but they're not as absorbent as clay masks. Peel-off masks tighten the skin temporarily and some stimulate the blood supply. They are good for mature and dry skin.
Thermal masks
Thermal masks are applied to the face and gradually heat up. They warm surface tissues and encourage the skin to breathe. Product recommendation: Boots No7 Purifying Sauna Mask – This mask heats up on contact with water to open pores and leave your skin feeling refreshed.
Cream masks
Cream masks contain emollient properties that soften skin. They are ideal for people with normal to dry skin who want to rejuvenate their facial skin by adding moisture masks.
Warm oil masks
Warm-oil masks are usually applied in spas and contain almond oil, olive oil, or vitamin oil. They are excellent for dry or mature skin because they soften the skin and increase blood circulation to the face.
Natural masks
Natural masks are based on the rejuvenating properties of fruits, plants, and herbs, such as cucumber, papaya, and oatmeal..

Here are some feedback that one of the masks have:
Works extremely well, apply then wash off after 10 minutes. Blackheads are gone. I had a really stubborn one just under my nose, mostly gone after one use, totally gone after 2. Skin feels soft and lovely after.
I don't usually buy face masks, but I heard good things about this one, so thought I would try it. It sits really well and dries very quickly; removing the mask is also really easy too. Its also helped to clear up my skin, so will definitely be buying again once my pot runs out!
I bought this as my skin was looking tired & dull. I usually have to stay with the same products as I have very sensitive skin, but my daughter had been raving about it, so I thought I'd give it a go. It was quite easy to put on & take off, my skin felt very soft afterwards & a lot brighter. I felt my skin had a good deep clean. Definitely buying again.
