Review of Charcoal Cream Mask

Hello Lovelies. Don't you love it when you have a clear skin? Oh what am I even asking! Everybody loves clear skin. I have an oily skin but my worst part is not acne. Sounds strange right? But this is true. I hardly suffer with acne which is a blessing. What I hate about my skin (my nose to be exact) are the stubborn blackheads. I feel really annoyed when am all dressed up pretty but my blackheads come poking out 😒. I try really hard getting them out but it hardly works. 

I had heard great reviews about charcoal peel-off masks but I was not getting it anywhere. Finally one fine day I found  a seller on Instagram selling the mask. The name of the seller is Shopiing_mania. I had ordered some products from her before as well. Here is the direct link in case you are interested. https://www.instagram.com/shopiing_mania/?hl=en

So the product that I got is Charcoal Mask Cream. On the bottom part of the cardboard box it mentions Bamboo Charcoal Oil Control Anti-blackhead Mask Cream. The sad part is I couldn't understand any thing else written on the box as it was written in a different language. From the looks of it I think it's a Korean product but I cannot say that for certain. The packaging looks like this:

The Outer Cover

Once you open the box you find the product in a plastic tube which makes it convenient for use. The flip open cap of the tube is sturdy but it can be opened easily, without much effort. Like on the outer box, the tube also mentions certain things written in a different language. The product weighs 130 gms. Since I could not read the font it's a disadvantage for me to know its ingredients. But the expiry date is mentioned on the outer box which is November, 2019. So am assuming that the product has 2-3 years of shelf life. Here is the picture of the product inside :

The mask has a semi-thick consistency much like a glue (Fevicol for instance). The color is jet black which is obviously because of the charcoal in it. It's pretty sticky and so it's advisable to spread the cream on your face as soon as you get it out of the tube, otherwise things might get messy. Below is a picture of the mask cream:

Look at the consistency

Now let's come to the usage. Since I could not read the instructions, I just followed my instinct. I washed my face with a face wash and then took steam so that the pores on my face open up. After taking the steam for around one minute I applied the mask. I layered up the product in such a way that it was neither too thick nor too thin. It should be applied with the right amount so that there is a layer thick enough to peel off easily. Once applied, I left the product to dry on my face which took around 20 minutes. You should be careful and check that your mask has dried off completely, otherwise the cream keeps sticking on your face. Once I peeled off the mask, I washed my face and applied toner to shrink my pores and then used moisturizer Below is a picture of my before and after using the mask cream. I was truly surprised to see that my face (nose to be more specific) was clean of any blackheads. Please forgive my clumsy photography as my intention was to focus on the part which truly highlights my blackheads.

To summarize it all I will say that I am truly impressed with the results. It works like a magnet that strips out all the blackheads. The price of the product was 300 and extra 50 for my shipping. The product is worth every penny. I recommend to use this product twice or thrice a month depending on your skin.
