One of the most affordable and easy to use skincare products on the market in my opinion is a skincare face mask. You can spend as little or as much as you like, they come in various forms and textures and they delivery a short term form of pampering to the skin. Sometimes all you want for your skin is a temporary boost, and that’s why I delved into my skincare stash and pulled out Superdrug’s Turmeric Revitalising Clay Mask. This was given to me from a friend.
What does this mask supposed to do?
Draws out impurities and extra oil from the skin, and makes it feel and appear smoother.
Appearance & Texture
It has a slight orangey tint to it which isn’t very appealing. I didn’t expect the colour to be beautiful but I think the combo of turmeric, clay and shea butter doesn’t produce a visually appealing mask. Texture is smooth and quite thick, and what you would expect from a mask containing clay.
Fragrance
Definitely has a turmeric scent to it but not too strong. I felt there was a slight citrus element to it which gave it a zing and slight freshness.
How to use
Apply to clean skin avoiding the eye area and leave on till dry for 10-25mins, then rinse off with warm water.
On the skin
I followed the instructions on the packaging. It didn’t take too long for my facial expressions to become frozen as it did dry out quickly. Not in an uncomfortable way but in a clay skincare mask kind of way.
Removal
I used a damp, warm muslin cloth to get this off and it did the trick. I followed it with warm water to make sure all residue was gone and it had.
Skin afterwards
My skin felt and looked a little smoother, a little more rested and I felt it was fresher. I checked my skin the following day and felt I could see the same results which made me feel very happy!
Top Tip
I got three uses out of one sachet! A third was plenty for one application and I could see the benefits so I didn’t use it all at once. You also may find you don’t even need that as you may want to apply this to only certain areas of the face e.g nose, forehead etc.
Recommended?
This is a great, affordable mask. Don’t be put off by the colour and the scent isn’t overwhelming. It left my skin in better condition than what it was prior to using it so an absolute winner! This usually retails for 99p (at the time of writing this post) and regularly on a multibuy promotion so not expensive at all!
