Face Mask Friday - Amie Cooling Clay Mask

Amie Spring Clean Cooling Clay Mask 75ml Full size - £4.95 Boots here

My skin this week has been a bit hormonal (nicest way of saying spotty) so I decided to opt for a nice clay mask to draw out them nasty impurities. I received this sample in an old She Said Beauty Box and liked the idea of a cooling clay mask so decided to give it a go.

Application

As I applied this I was instantly impressed with the smooth thick texture that glided over my skin and the lovely fresh clay scent (I always think clay masks smell like lemonade for some reason). I also enjoyed the lovely cooling sensation as I applied it to my face. I then left it for 10 minutes as advised in which time it tightened slightly, but not too much that it was uncomfortable. Whilst the mask was on I read the back of the sachet to see that the mask was free from parabens, minerals, mineral oils and all them bad things which is a definitely plus for me!

Results

When it came to washing it off the sachet stated 'splash off with warm water and pat face dry' which definitely isn't what it needed to remove it. I had to fill the sink with warm water and use a muslin cloth to remove the mask, though maybe I used too much of the mask. Not that I minded.

Once the mask was totally washed off, my skin was left feeling very fresh and my pores did appear tighter. Though my skin was red from the use of the muslin cloth.

After using the mask and really enjoying it I decided to have a look online as to where I could purchase more sachets and found it only comes in a tube, which is great as I really do like this mask!

Will 100% be purchasing this now as it's such a fresh feeling clay mask.

Fee xo.

This mask sounds really nice! I like cooling mask rather than one that heat up, its much more soothing on the skin.

I know what you mean Gillian, I am much more of a fan of cooling masks but they do seem harder to come by. But this is such a lovely one!

I love Amie skincare, their face wash and moisturiser are so great. I've had a few tubes of this, it feels so nice on the skin and is a lot cheaper than loads of clay masks I've seen! I haven't had it for a while though, this review has made me want to try it again though!

I haven't ever tried Amie before but if the face mask is anything to go by they seem pretty great. It does feel lovely on the skin and I may just love it more than my Liz Earle clay mask so will defiinitely be getting the tube of it :)

It's lovely to use isn't it. I wish I hadn't off used up the whole sachets and spread it over two applications as it was so nice. But will be getting the full size as soon as I go shopping in Boots.
