Boots Botanics Ionic Clay Mask

***NOTICE!!! I RECEIVED THIS PRODUCT FREE FROM INFLUENCER FOR TESTING PURPOSES!!!***

Alright, with that out of the way...here we go! 

I was a lucky recipient of the JaDore VoxBox from Influenster and was SO excited about all the awesome products that were in it! (The other products will each have their own posts)

Product number one was the Boots Botanics Ionic Clay Mask. Which is supposed to remove impurities and deeply cleanse skin with clarifying willowbark. #PowerofPlants!!! WHOO! 


So I got to work...The smell threw me off quite a bit at first...it says it clarifies with willowbark...and well. It really smells like bark. It has a wet, earthy smell to it that I was not thrilled about spreading all over my face. 
The mask had a fine grit to it and was very liquid-y. Make sure you shake this mask before you apply it...I made that mistake and ended up with a lot of green liquid...all over my hands and shirt. Oops. lol 

It doesn't take much to cover your entire face. I put a quarter sized amount in the palm of my hand and used my fingers on my other hand to spread the mask evenly over my face. 
 I was left looking quite a bit like Shrek....


The mask dried fairly quickly. And it dries like mud...or clay. Go figure right? 
It was hard to move my face, the mask cracked and it seemed to be doing its job. 

Ten minutes ticked by and it was time to wash it off. Which I dreaded...but the mask was very easy to wash off and wasn't nearly as messy as I thought it would be! 

My skin was a bit softer and the dead skin I had all over from my cold I am getting over was mostly gone. My skin also feels slightly cleaner and refreshed.
All in all I would say that this is a nice mask! It did what it said it would do and is unique. Very different from the fruity smelling masks I am used to! 
I will be using up the rest of this bottle and possibly buying another. 
I haven't been able to find this in any stores around me but it can be purchased from the Boots site HERE for $9.39
