Differin Clay Face Mask, Detox and Soothe 2 Step Treatment Clay Mask by the makers of Differin Gel, Gentle Skin Care for Acne Prone Sensitive Skin, 1.75 oz

This is my first time using a face mask and I am in awe of it! I was honestly a little scared of how it would react to my skin with the warming clay portion of it, but I haven't had any bad reactions. I've been using this product for almost a month now three times a week as per the instructions. Depending on your skin type though you might only be able to use it once a week. My skin is a combination of oily and dry, plus whenever my hormones fluctuate during ovulation and menstruation my skin is extremely sensitive. However when I use this mask during those times it helps to soothe it, especially with the cooling gel! I've been a long time sufferer of hormonal cystic acne and used only Differin Gel for years. I had to step up my game this year though because it has become increasingly worse, so I decided to use Differin's other products as well. Since I use so many of them I was pouring through reviews to see when to use certain products and when not to. Alas I couldn't find too many that gave a step by step guide. Hence why I am going to include my skin care routine that seems to be doing wonders so far! Even though I use mostly Differin products there are a few other brands I use as well since they work best with my skin, plus my doctor gave me a prescription for Spironolactone to help calm my acne flare ups. Keep in mind though this is what I have had success with, but everyone's skin reacts differently as most of you already know. I just wanted to give you all my step by step guide in the hopes that it will point you in the right direction, because frankly acne sucks and it's made my life hell! Thankfully though including Differin's other products has helped to heal my skin and boost my self-esteem. Anyway, here we go! Morning Routine: - Apply Differin Daily Deep Cleanser and wash off. - Apply Differin Clay Face Mask and wash off. I only use this three times a week. - Apply Differin Pore Minimizing Toner. I use this right after the face mask because I can't use it after applying the cooling gel, otherwise I would in essence be washing it off. - Apply Differin Cooling Gel. Again I only use this three times a week with the face mask. - Apply Dark Spot Correcting Face Serum. I've only been using this for two weeks and my acne scars are finally starting to fade away. I plan on using this until they're gone entirely and only use it when needed. - Apply Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Cream. I used to use the Differin Soothing Moisturizer, but unfortunately it made my skin very sticky and oily. Plus the Neutrogena cream helps with my acne scars. Evening Routine: - Apply Differin Daily Brightening Exfoliator and wash off. I've only been using this for a week and have already begun to see a difference. I used to use the Differin Daily Refreshing Cleanser, but I wanted an exfoliator to use at the end of day.. - Apply Differin Pore Minimizing Toner. - Apply Dark Spot Correcting Face Serum. - Apply Differin Gel Acne Treatment. - Apply Cerave Moisturizing Cream. I used to use the Differin Restorative Night Moisturizer and it made my skin feel amazing, but I decided to go back to using Cerave's moisturizer because it lasts longer. Eventually once my skin is completely healed I might go back to using Differin's moisturizer. I hope this helps anyone reading this! I know it sounds like a lot, but desperate times call for desperate measures. After using each product you definitely want to wait for it to dry, that way it's completely absorbed into your skin. This has been my skin care routine for the past three months. Aside from some of the newer Differin products I started using most recently that I mentioned earlier. I wish everyone the best of luck! As we all know this can be a nightmarish process to deal with, but hopefully my review will make things a little bit easier. Thank you Differin for being a life saver thus far!

I absolutely LOVE this product! It's definitely a weird feeling at first, but you get used to it. I use it once a week and have noticed my skin is clearer. Overall, I love the differin brand, works great for my sensitive skin.

Acceptable product, haven’t really seen a difference since using it. It definitely burns when first applying the mask and then the gel cools it down at the end

Great item! Love the double combination. I was pleasantly surprised when I received this item as it was a lot bigger in size than I thought it would be and I really like that it is split with two sections (Detox section and soothing mask section). This product seems to be very effective helping with my acne prone areas. When I first began using it I used it more frequently than directed and it made my skin very dry so once I actually followed the directions correctly on the label it has worked wonders! The cooling mask is amazing and I love it so so much! I highly recommend this item!

I tried this on the hunt for a new product to revive my skin. I'm in my 50's and products aren't working like they used to. I put the mask on - which was not as thick as other clay like masks, it kind of soaked into my skin and after a few minutes I could feel the heat effect. I jumped into the shower to wash it off and continue my routine. Immediately after the shower while my skin was still very moist I put the light blue gel product on. It melted into my skin as it dried and overall my skin feels a little tighter with no greasy or tackiness, no clogged clay pores. Makeup went on flawlessly. I am looking forward to using it again!

It comes with a great, short duration clarifying mask that is also warming. Also comes with a cooling gel that happens to have panthenol and allantoin in it which are high grade skin care ingredients found in rather expensive products. I wish I could leave it on longer. Every time I use the mask there's a little difference. If my skin has acne bad then I use it 3 days a week with no irritation. My skin is rather sensitive so that's a plus. I do feel like the clay mask could work better. Maybe you can leave it on longer but I did end up irritating my skin when I left it on for 15 minutes ish the first time using it.

Idk if I love or hate this honestly . It feels really good on the skin until it doesn’t . It’s a heating mask but it’s almost like it heats a little too much lol after you wash it off your skin remains still very warm . Almost makes you feel feverish

I love how fast you can do this face mask. Smells fine. Dries quickly. Great value for the money. Pretty effective. I’ve used this product for a long time now.
