Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque


This is a great minty mask to use in order to get rid of blackheads because it tends to suck out all of the toxins from the pores. However, I do not recommend using this product more than 2-3 times a week since besides bringing out all of the skin's impurities to the surface it also gets rid of the skins natural oils and with too frequent use it can dry out the skin. As a person with really, really oily acne-prone skin I use this product twice a week after a facial steam for about 20 minutes (or as soon as the mask completely dries).  You can also use the mask as an overnight spot treatment in order to dry out blemishes and reduce redness just remember to put a towel on your pillow because the mask is mint green colored! And did I mention that this mask is dirt cheap! It's about $2.99 for the 3 oz tub or $5.29 for the 12 0z tub at Sally Beauty Supply. And since you don't need to slather the mask too thick (or it won't dry) the product should last you awhile.

Ingredients: Purified Water (Aqua), Kaolin, Bentonite, Glycerin, Zinc Oxide, Propylene Glycol, Sulfur, Chromium Oxide Greens, Fragrance (parfum), Phenoxyethanol, Methylyparaben.
