BeautyCounter Beauty Counter No.3 Balancing + Charcoal Facial Mask, 60 mL / 2 oz

This mask is amazing at reducing my large pores, pulling out impurities, and giving my skin a soft glow. It's my favorite new beauty product, and I look forward to the spa experience I can have at home. The mask spreads on evenly and easy. It has a fresh, clean smell. It hardens within 10 minutes, and changes color from black to grey, so you know it's working. I wash it off with a wash cloth and warm water. I still need a light cream cleanser to remove all the mask residue. And that's it! Beautiful skin with tiny pores.

The product sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. I have to apply a super thick layer for it to remove blackheads. It dries out skin horribly. And you have to be committed to this one: it makes a huge mess; because you have to apply so much, it’s takes forever to get off your skin; if you have any deep pores, the product gets stuck in there until you wash your face; it gets under your nails, up your nose, everywhere. And pray that you don’t get it on a wall that has matte paint - it will not come off!The reason I gave it two stars is because when it does work, it completely unclogs your pores. It just isn’t consistent.I purchased this product through Beauty Counter but couldn’t rate on their website.
