Alpha-H: Clear Skin Blemish Control Mask

Read Time:1 Minute, 48 Second

Alpha-H shows no signs of slowing down with the latest addition to their arsenal of skincare, the Clear Skin Blemish Control Mask (with white clay)*. If you’re lousy at committing yourself to detoxifying your skin with a weekly mask, this one performs multiple functions and it only asks for 10 minutes of your time once a week. May I suggest Sunday night before bed so come Monday morning, your skin is glowing for the week ahead?

The mask contains a combination of mineral-rich clays Kaolin and Bentonite to absorb excess oil and draw out impurities, and other key ingredients such as Australian eucalyptus and tea tree oil which provide an antibacterial, antiseptic, antifungal and antimicrobial treatment. There is also a dose of jojoba oil, to leave the skin feeling soft and hydrated, and macadamia seed and olive leaf extracts to help reduce inflammation, while their powerful antioxidant properties protect the skin and aid in repair.

After cleansing, this white clay mask only needs to be applied in a thin layer on the face, neck and décolletage and left on for a maximum of 10 minutes or less so long as it hardens. Then with wet fingertips, you soften the clay by massaging gentling, stimulating the skin before wiping clean with a warm, wet flannel.

After just one use, I immediately noticed my complexion looked profoundly clear and glowy. Incredibly my pores and skin texture looked refined just as the mask promised and my skin felt soft and hydrated. I was expecting the mask to feel uncomfortable but it’s actually pleasant and very soothing especially the strong aroma of tea tree oil. If tea tree oil isn’t to your liking, then you might not be so keen on this but give it a go, the results are surprisingly good and the effects of it last for days. The mask can also be used an emergency overnight “on the spot” treatment.

Alpha-H’s Clear Skin Blemish Control Mask is ideal for oily, combination and acne-prone skin types and costs a very reasonable £22.50 for 100ml from Look Fantastic, Beauty Bay, Cult Beauty and Alpha-H.
