L'Oreal Paris Pure Clay Mask

Thank your BR for letting me trial this product.

It comes in a small glass pottle with a screw on lid, the consistency is thick, charcoal colour and a slight scent of clay.

Just like any other mask, easy to apply. I always apply mine with an angled foundation brush as I find that this works really well for me. Leave mask on for the recommend 10-15 minutes or until dry. As the mask dries, your skin will become increasingly tight. When you're ready, wash off gently with warm water and pat your face dry.

I really like this mask, it leaves my skin feeling fresh and revived. I feel that my skin tone looks more balanced. My daughter's even liked using it.

I would highly recommend and will be repurchasing.

Tips: Use in conjunction with the Loreal Clay facial wash.

L'Oréal Clay Mask

The mask actually smells pretty good when you open the container, so that's a bonus. It spreads on very easily, so you don't need much product - it'll last a lot longer. After leaving it on for 10-15 mins it definitely goes very hard and is quite uncomfortable but that is to be expected. Washed off easily. It definitely made my skin feel softer and I do think it brightened it, would definitely recommend!

Indulgent cleanliness

Indulgent. Perfectly Clean. L'Oréal Skin Experts have created a super-charged pure clay mask with Charcoal to detoxify and illuminate skin in 10 minutes. This formula provides a luxurious experience while potent pure clays and charcoal feel like a magnet that draws-out and captures impurities (such as oil). It feels like a creamy, non-drying formula which left my skin feeling clean, velvety, and rebalanced. This mask addresses dull, tired skin to reveal a purified, even, and radiant complexion. Immediately, my skin looks brighter with a healthy glow. Skin is perfectly clean and clear, feels as though it can breathe better. Skin is healthy looking and more beautiful. I recommend using this with the matching face wash to prep the skin well.

Tips: Apply an even layer to clean dry skin, avoiding eye and lip area. Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes then remove with water. For best results i used this 3 times in a week.

My go to mask now!

I'm normally not a big fan of L'Oreal products. I find them a bit overrated, so going into this trial I wasn't expecting much. However, my opinion changed after my first use and I think this is one of my favourite masks! This mask looks like any other charcoal mask, and the packinging is very nice. I used the mask straight after my shower (after using the face wash from the line) while my pores were still open. It is quite a small jar, but you don't need to use a lot of it - a thin layer will do. I left it on for 10 mins like it said and took it off using a warm face cloth. This was where I started to see some magic happening. As I was taking the mask off, I could see that it had pulled gunk from my pores. I was so shocked. I thought my skin was already cleaned but I guess this stuff was deep down, once it was all off, I did a quick rinse with cold water to close my pores. Straight after my first use I could definitely see some changes. My pores were visibly smaller, my skin looked a lot brighter and clearer! I had a few pimples on my face at the time and the smaller ones looked less red and appeared as if they had reduced in size. I followed with my normal routine - toner and sweet almond oil. My partner even mentioned that my skin looked glowing and healthy. At this point I was already converted but the next day when I woke up, my mind was made up. This was my new fav. I had to big blind pimples on my chin that were red and sore. The next morning the redness was gone and they had significantly reduced in size! I couldn't believe it! Another bonus is that it didn't over dry my skin - even though I have combo skin, whenever I use a charcoal mask, it dries out my skin around my pimples and it just didn't do that with me! Thanks beauty review for picking me for this trial! I can't believe I am typing this, but this product is a game changer for me :)

Tips: Use this with the face wash from the range. It's not over drying and you'll see some good results!

Love at first sight

Wow!!! I am totally in love with this pure clay mask by l'Oreal. It has a thick consistency but when applied to the skin it feels so lovely and fresh. I applied less the second time I used it and I feel that less is better. It dried quicker too when less is applied. It has a nice tight feeling on the skin. It's really easy to apply and wash off is easy just use a warm flannel. I am so stoked with the way my skin feels after using this product for even a short time. My skin feels clean, fresh and literally like I've just had a facial. I will definitely buy this product in the future and also recommend to my family and friends as they need to know how good this is. It's my favourite thing I have reviewed so far!!!

Loving the packaging too!!!

Tips: Apply less rather than more

L'Oreal Paris Pure Clay Mask Detoxify & Brighten

I have to start this of by saying that I have acne prone skin with normal type around the cheek area and an oily t-zone. I was so excited to try this mask and I definitely was not disappointed!

It arrived in a compact green box with a window. The product itself came in a square glass bottle with a green lid. Felt very luxurious! As you open the lid there is a protective cover which you have to lift to reveal the mask.

The product inside the jar is dark grey in colour. It isn't goopy but it is thick in nature. There are no bits throughout the mask as it is quite a smooth texture.

I have used this 3 times since I received it. I apply a thin layer using my fingers to my freshly cleansed face. You do not need to use a lot as a little goes a long way! Applies very smoothly without a fuss. I really liked the smell of this mask as I did not find it to be overpowering at all. It says to leave it on for about 10-15 minutes. The mask starts to dry really quickly and as it dries it starts to become a shade lighter. The most satisfying part is that as this mask dries on your face, little dots start appearing on the areas where it seems to be sucking out the most gunk. This also starts to tighten as it dries.

After the 15 minutes is up (and the mask is completely dry on your face), I removed this using warm water and a soft face cloth. It removes just as easily as it goes in which is awesome! I instantly noticed the little blackheads on my nose had decreased in number! My skin felt really smooth and looked amazing. I felt as if the mask had actually taken out all the gunk from the top layer of my skin.

The first couple of days after using this for the first time, I did notice some pimply bumps around my cheek and chin area. I figured this was just due to the mask pulling out all the unnecessary oils from deep within my skin and sure enough, I was right. After the first few days these went away and I was left with great looking skin!

This mask is definitely something I would repurchase again - not that I would have to anytime soon as the amount of product that comes in this is insane! :)

Tips: I used this in conjunction with the gel face wash from the same line and i felt like the two products work really well with each other!!

Love love love

This is the product I was missing from my routine! The L'Oreal Pure Clay Mask comes in an attractive 50ml jar. The mask itself is a charcoal colour and has a pleasant ecalyptus fragrence that is not overpowering.

I found a little goes a long way. First time around I applied way too thick and could barely move my face or talk until I washed it off. Second time around I ensured all areas of face were lightly covered. It is recommended you leave on for 10 mins. I found it fully sets within 2-3 minutes and spent the rest of the time relaxing. I have used the L'Oreal Pure Clay Mask 3 times and have noticed a big difference. My skin looked clean, felt fresh and super soft. At $24.99 this is really affordable and will last me approx 1 - 2 months. I will definitely purchase again

Tips: This sets really quickly. To ensure even coverage attempt to cover face quickly as it is fast setting

Stone faced

What can I say about this stuff... apart from its awesome. It doesn't crack off when its dry. You can feel it tightening your skin... it leaves your face looking cute and smooth... it smells rather nice consodering... it even washes of the face cloth without leaving stains or marks... Loved it... my friends could see the difference. And my face smelt lovely all night long. But alas it didn't do anything for my oily face. The search contiues. But will keep using this.. even my daughter loves it... it can get a bit tight on your face and a little itchy as well

Tips: Take before abd after shots then you will notice the difference.

Really good Glam Glow dupe!

This mask reminds me of the Glam Glow Super Mud mask - but way cheaper. It does the same kind of thing - dries down on your skin, but you can see brighter patches, where the mask is absorbing oils and impurities (which is gross but super satisfying to see). I think it's a really good mask for deeply cleaning your pores, and is great for combo/oily skin. If you have dry skin it might be a bit too drying for you - you can just use it where you need it though e.g. your T-zone, so if you have dry skin, maybe just use it like that, or to spot treat.

Tips: Use 2-3 times a week to keep your skin super clean and detoxified!

Loved it

Nice glass bottle with a cover to keep the product from drying out. Very thick. I applied way too much the first time thinking my face had to be full on grey! But the second and third time I applied less. Its an odd feeling as the mask drys as it tightens your skin. Feels weird to smile or move your eyebrows. I didn't mind the feeling (my guinea pig husband wasn't a fan at all!) It did leave my skin feeling extremely dry after so I had to put moisturiser on. I didnt feel the mask had as much of a smell as the wash.

The product seems to have worked for me. My skin looks fresher with less red around my nose.
