The first time I applied it I was impressed by how fast it dried and how good it felt on my skin. After I rinsed the product off I could literally feel the difference it made on my skin when I touched it. I loved how my skin glowed and how radiant it looked.

The clear skin Black mineral mask is everything!

Not only is it affordable but it is extremely efficient.

I am hooked.

The Pore penetrating mask is a black mineral mask which is supposed to help reduce the visibility of pores. This product according to Avon, says it "pulls like a magnet to draw out pore-clogging dirt & oil." Sounds rather impressive hey?

According to the information supplied on the back of the package, it is recommended that you use the mask about two or three times per week. The mask contains Salicylic Acid and Bentonite clay which helps absorb excess oils and dirt off your face. It also contains ingredients from green tea which help reduce the visibility of blackheads. I personally love green tea and green tea products so this had me attention.

I applied the mask to my face and let it absorb into my skin for about 10 minutes. The time factor varies depending on how much you put on your face. As the mask dries it changes to a charcoal colour. The charcoal colour comes from the iron oxides which are contained in the mask. The mask is a bit drying and makes your skin tight.

I noticed a difference from the first use especially around my nose area which is my problematic area. I decided to use this product on a regular basis and my skin has changed for the better. My cheeks and nose are both smooth and free of clogged pores.

This product is definitely worth a try, especially if you want something to help clean out your skin and that is affordable. I don't think Avon products get the recognition that they deserve and I must say that I am really impressed with this mask. If you would like to purchase your own mask then order one from an Avon representative. If you would like to find out more information about it and know what the price is for that month, then you can view their online site.

I bought this mask because it was on a special offer and I'm happy to say that it exceeded my expectations.

You apply it on your face as a black paste and wait as it dries and turns grey. As it dries, I could see some blackheads (that I didn't even see before) exposed. As it dries and turns grey it felt like it was also sucking the oil out.

I don't particularly have oily skin but I do get the occasional 3 or 4 pimples break out every month.

It's recommend that the mask be used 2 - 3 times a week.

Love, love, love this mask! I know it might look a little strange when going on, but it is really worth it. The mask is simple to apply, and as it dries from black to grey you can actually feel it working on your skin and it doesn't have a bad smell at all. By simply washing it off when you are done, you are left with skin that feels refreshed and that looks absolutely amazing. I ensure that I use this once a week on my skin as it really helps to keep it refreshed and looking healthy, and it feels so good. Plus, at that price? Super score!

So I've been sitting with this face mask for around 3 months, I've used it many times and I am actually quite pleased with this product. It's something new which Avon has launched. This face mask is a pore penetrating mask which contains an oil-absorbing blend of mineral clays that attracts and effectively removes pore clogging oil. Sounds pretty basic right? WRONG!

So this is like my magic mask, mainly because it can do some pretty amazing thing! Firstly it works like a magnet because it can absorb 400% of its own weight in skin's pore clogging oils plus it magically changes colour! So I'm not sure which of the two caught your attention more, but it is true! This face mask applies to skin black and turns grey when it's dry, meaning it's ready to remove.

I find it a good concept because you'll know when to remove your face mask plus you'd be more interested in trying it out! I have very oily skin and I find my skin feels amazing after using this face mask at least once a week on my skin. After using the mask I feel my skin is more refreshed and actually feels lighter and looks more youthful. My pores feel clean and seem smaller.

To use this face mask is fairly simple, you just apply a thin layer to face and wait for it to dry while drying you can actually notice that the mask is absorbed in your pores. Once the mask turns grey (it's dry) you may rinse off with warm water and pat dry. You can use the face mask between 2-3 times a week, but I use mine at least once a week and I've noticed an improvement in the way my skin looks and feels.

I would really recommend you give this product a try! The face mask comes in a 75ml squeeze tube which allows you to get every single drop of the face mask out. I like the packaging because it's quite simple and unique. The black face mask can be seen through the clear tube.You can purchase it from an Avon Store or an Avon Representative. This face mask retails at around R32,50 when on special and R65 normal price.

as someone who suffers from large pores, around nose area, I am prone to blackhead BUT instead of ever letting them form, I knip it in the butt!! I have been told that clay masks work well to extract excess oil and dirt..so when I saw this product I thought wow!

I love how it changes colour, but I love more how refined my pores were..like noticeably gone!! Good product on a budget :)

I’ve never had much restraint when it comes to browsing through the Avon Brochure, and Brochure 10 was no exception. I was hooked on this novel face mask and at R32.50 just had to give it a try.

The mask forms part of Avons Clear Skin range, this range offers every teen to early 20 year olds need to care for their skin. I was sceptical as always when trying new products due to the sensitive nature of my skin, but after reading that this mask is dermatologically tested I was put more at ease. The packaging is neat and exactly as seen in the brochure.

The mask is very affordable at R32.50 for a 75ml, which will last ages as only a thin layer is needed on the skin. The product comes in a black and dark grey tube with green and white writing. The combination of colours used is very striking and make the product stand out. The tube has a clear flip lid dispenser. The mask is a black/dark grey colour and has a pudding or paste consistency. The tube comes in a rectangular boxed in the same combination of colours.

The mask is easy to apply and smoothes on with ease. Very little is needed upon application as the formula smoothes out evenly onto skin without feeling tacky or heavy. If any get onto your hair or clothing it easily washes off with staining, this was great as I spilt a huge blob onto my top and worried if it would stain. The mask contains a Mineral Complex which absorbs 400% of its weight in skin’s pore-clogging oils.

It’s a deep cleansing clay mask that helps remove impurities, pore-clogging dirt and oil without drying out skin. This pore-penetrating mask contains an oil-absorbing blend of mineral clays that attracts and effectively removes pore-clogging oil like a magnet. The formula provides a cooling sensation and leaves skin feeling clean, soft and smooth. It’s dermatologically tested and non-comedogenic which makes it suitable for every skin type.

The magic begins once the mask is on! It goes on black and within 10-15 minutes turns grey; this is when it’s time to wash off with some warm water. As the mask turns to grey, it stiffens on your skin making it slightly uncomfortable to speak or make sudden facial movements. Thicker areas will take longer than 15 minutes to turn grey. Once the grey areas are moistened they turn black again, so the colour change is merely the product once dry and not an indication of the un-clogging properties.

I’ve used my mask twice now and am so chuffed with the results! My skin has not broken out and I’ve had no reaction to the mask besides clearer looking skin. Definitely one product on my continuous Avon purchase list.
