[Review] Missha Color Clay Mask Green (Pore Care)

Hi everyone, 

I'm currently working on a majority of the products that I purchased during my first trip to Japan, which has been quite a while a now. 

I've been trying out and using the products for quite some time, so I feel more than comfortable writing these product reviews.

Personal experience: I was extremely excited when I first saw Missha in Tokyo, Japan! However, I'm not even going to make this anything short of blunt. . I felt that all the products (skin, not color) that I had purchased happened to be extremely lackluster. I don't think Ive heard anyone rave except for their infamous essence and perhaps that one particular night product they have in the purple packaging.

The mask goes on green of course, though the consistency of the product stays quite wet as opposed to being a clay mask that dries rock hard. This is nice because you don't have to make such a dramatic effort to wash off the product after the time frame listed in the directions. However because the product goes on very wet and doesn't dry down too much, it doesn't seem that product is effective as one would think. I don't feel like it did much for my pores being cleared out and almost as if my skin didn't benefit from it at all. Lately, I have somewhat lost faith in most pore masks. . not all, but I definitely think a better investment is getting extractions by a trained aesthetician/professional.

In other words. . just a no from me, 2/5 because the consistency is really nice and spreads easily.

Rate: 2/5
