My experience:

Do I like it? Yes! I it the best from the entire line? No. With this entire mask series a little goes a long way.  The tube of the Pore Care clay mask is well designed. It is made of thicker plastic that is soft so squeezing the mask of of the package is as easy as counting to three.  It’s huge tube contains 137 grams of product and lasts me forever since I do not apply it over my entire face.

 

The consistency of clay is very soft and almost gel-like. It is definitely different from the rest of the bunch.  The color of it is olive green and it doesn’t have a scent to it. It spreads out extremely well due to it’s very gel-like texture. It literally glides over the skin.

 

I apply this Firming Natural Color Clay onto my T-Zone and let it do it’s magic for 15 minutes. In order to create more thin layer I apply it with a brush. after 15 minutes it is not drying out entirely. If I touch my face I can still move the product around. Once it comes to rinsing it out that is where I get stuck with it. It feels to me that you need more time to completely remove it off the face. Nonetheless, my skin is always left very hydrated after this one. I do still pat my skin with a toner after using it to restore my skin’s natural moisture and pH levels.

 

Final verdict: This mask is great to use if you want to cleanse your pores without drying the skin out.  It is so gentle on the skin that I think it will be good for dry skinners out there! Just follow the 15 minute application rule.
