MASK MONDAY: L'Oreal Pure Clay Glow Mask


So I decided that I needed to try the new glow offering from the new L'Oreal masks. I wasn't fussed with the detox and such, but glow, at my age, is always a winner.

The mask comes in a glass jar. Not sure how I feel about the packaging... The mask is a weird pinkish brown colour and has a smell almost like cinnamon?.. Or something like that? Quite strong. When you put it on, it looks like you've gone overboard with a really awful bronzer :) I did find that quite amusing for some reason...

Despite being a clay mask (also you spelled kaolin wrong on the packaging, L'Oreal) this is almost a non-drying mask. It has scrub grains in it so take care when removing if you have delicate skin! It says to leave on for 5-10 min so I left it for 10 minutes. When you take it off, scrub lightly to get the exfoliating element of this mask.

Is that a bad bronzer or a face mask?! :)
I enjoyed this mask a lot! It definitely adds a fresh feeling to the skin and my skin was very soft. As I have more dry and sensitive skin I think I will only use this once a week despite the packaging claiming you should use it 2-3 times a week.

This retails for £7.99 for 50ml, but it's on introductory offer right now for £5 in Boots. It claims you get 10 uses out of this - we shall see :) If you only get 10 uses and use it 3 times a week, it won't even last you a month - not sure about them economics... But I will likely only use once a week so should last me a couple months!
