What it is
A pore-focused clay mask that combines matcha/green tea, clays, and gentle exfoliating agents to clarify congested areas, refine pore look, and control shine without a heavy residue.
Who it's for
- Oily or combination skin dealing with shine and visible pores.
- Those wanting a targeted T-zone detox before makeup or weekly refresh.
- Users who prefer a clay mask that rinses clean without lingering film.
Key ingredients (INCI)
- Absorbent clays (e.g., Kaolin/Bentonite) — help draw excess sebum and refine pore look.
- Matcha/Green Tea Extract — antioxidant, soothing support for skin feel.
- Mild exfoliating agents (e.g., PHA/BHA) — gentle smoothing and pore care.
- Soothers/humectants (e.g., centella derivatives, glycerin) — buffer and reduce post-mask tightness.
Free-from / texture
- Creamy clay texture; spreads evenly and rinses without heavy residue.
- Low oil content; check INCI for fragrance if sensitive.
- Leaves a clean, matte feel when rinsed before fully drying.
How to use & order
- After cleansing, apply an even layer to dry skin, focusing on T-zone/areas of concern; avoid eyes and lips.
- Leave on for 5–10 minutes; do not let it fully crack-dry. Rinse with lukewarm water and follow with hydrating toner/serum and moisturizer.
- Use 1–2 times weekly to start; adjust to 2–3 times weekly if well tolerated.
Conflicts & layering tips
- Avoid pairing with strong acids or retinoids on the same night if skin is sensitive.
- Follow with hydrating and barrier-supportive products to offset potential dryness.
- Patch test if prone to dryness or if you have sensitive skin.
Evidence & notes
- Pore-tightening effects are cosmetic and temporary; consistent use maintains appearance.
- Clays and mild exfoliants help absorb surface oil; rinse before the mask fully hardens to reduce tightness.
- Hydrate and moisturize after use to rebalance skin.
Safety
- For external use only; discontinue if irritation occurs.
- Patch test before first use, especially if you have sensitive or compromised skin.
- Avoid using on broken skin or immediately after harsh exfoliation; consult a professional if post-procedure.
- Pregnancy/breastfeeding: cosmetic ingredients; defer to your physician for personal guidance.
