Activated charcoal, ilite clay, black seed oil and squalene join together to balance and hydrate the skin, absorbing excess oil and reducing the appearance of dark spots and large pores. This lightweight, velvety textured masque is ideal for all skin types, including oily and combination. How to use Apply a thin layer to a clean skin, avoid the eye area. Leave masque on skin and allow to dry for 5-10 minutes. Remove with a wet towel, for easier removal you may wish to wet the masque first or pat a wet towel into the skin with gentle but firm pressure. A slight cooling, tingling or warming sensation and temporary redness are normal responses in the skin to this masque, generally due to the impurity absorbing properties of the clay.
