Garnier Pure Self-Heating Sauna Mask Review

Hi Lovelies! Today, the product featured was one of my favorite mask, Garnier Pure Self-Heating Mask. This was my pick because this mask do the job of making my skin clear and smooth. So,let’s start on what the company says about this product.

 (Sorry,I was in a hurry to use this and that explains the torn packaging)...



The formula generates a self-heating action on contact with the skin. Specially developed with clay and zinc, it works to remove impurities and excess sebum to unclog pores and refine skin texture. Your skin feels deeply cleansed and looks shine-free. It feels deeply purified for up to 7 days.”

 
Instructions: Apply gently on the t-zone (forehead, nose, and chin). Leave for 3 minutes, then rinse off. Suitable for oily to combination skin. Use once or twice every week. For 2 applications (2×6 ml).

 (as you can see I dont apply it on just my T-zone,I applied it on my entire face)

 
I use this once a week and a pack last me about 1 month since I only use a quarter everytime (for me that was enough since I have a small face).I love the warm sensation when I applied the mask on my face( this made me believe that dirt and impurities are drawn out on my pores).And the best thing that I like about this mask is I can do what I want to do while it’s in my face(with the exclusion of running errands of course, I will scare the children with my “momo” face, haha) unlike sheet mask that you have to have lay down for say 15-20 minutes plus the fact that I hate the consistency of sheet mask and the drippings on my ears annoys me and I don’t know but sheet mask makes my skin itchy and I can’t see and feel the difference it does on my face. And If I’m feeling not so lazy I steamed my face with the Garnier mask on my face (I believe the effect boost twice since the steam makes the clay and zinc penetrate more in the pores) and the effect on my face is much more smoother and cleaner unlike if I just leave it alone on my face for 3 minutes, but you see I’m always tired to do this. This one has a light scent of clay that I didn’t mind and the formula is kinda thick and sticky with a light bluish tint. And oh,before I forgot this product was intended for oily skin individuals.

 (notice how my skin  became clearer and smoother?)

 (Oppzzz,I haven't completely removed my eyeshadow:)
So,let’s jump now to my findings about this product.

 
THE GOOD:

-Inexpensive.Cost Php 49.only per pack.
-It doesn’t irritate my skin.
-The effect is seen and felt immediately.
-Contains lots of product.You can use it 3x per pack.
-Available mostly on drugstore and supermarket or any Watson stores.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

-Even if it makes my skin smooth, purified and much clearer everytime I use this, the blackheads and whiteheads are still present.

 Overall,this was a good face mask for oily skin like me.As you can see in my photo this one do its job in making my face purified and shine- free.For the price though,you can’t expect this to remove blackheads and whiteheads.
