REVIEW!! AVON CLEARSKIN PORE PENETRATING BLACK MINERAL MASK!




So I got this mask a while back. Almost been using it since a year and a half. This was said to be a dupe for the Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask To Clear Pores.Now both the masks are said to clear out clogged pores by drawing out the impurities and cloggers.

I had tried the Origins one but since that retails at $17 for 50ml, i had to look for an alternate that was economical, because who doesn’t like saving money when you yourself are on allowance? But i had to do my homework! It wasn’t easy to look for something that was even close to the Origins formulation.



Anyway i came across the brand Avon, which wasn’t a very common brand at the time because:
  1. They did not have distributors like other drugstore brands.
  2. It was actually a company created for women who wanted to work from home and they were given a fair share of the earnings as they sold product to their friends and family.

So anyway i found a facebook page that was taking orders for this UK based brand and i ordered a bunch of stuff from the catalogue. While going through the catalogue, I stumbled upon this particular item, and thought of giving it a try! So here’s my review of the Avon Clearskin Pore Penetrating Black Mineral Mask!

The mask retails for $6.99 for 75ml, but Avon usually has all sorts of offers on their catalogues so when I bought it I got it on a buy one get one free deal. So that means I got 150ml at $6.99. That means I got 3 times the product I usually get in the Origins one and that too for less than half the price! That’s a pretty sick deal!

WHAT IT SAYS ON THE PACKAGING!

This pore-penetrating mask contains an oil-absorbing blend of mineral clays that attracts and effectively removes pore-clogging oil like a magnet. Provides a cooling sensation as it changes from black to light grey to indicate it is ready to be rinsed off. Leaves skin feeling clean, soft and smooth. Light, pleasant scent. Suitable for all skin types.

MY PERSONAL THOUGHTS!!

Honestly, for me this mask has been a Holy Grail product since the first time I used it! Yes it is a bit different than the Origins Mask, but the difference is diminutive. For this little price, the amount you get is totally worth every penny spent! Infact even more!
The first time I used the mask, I could actually see it unclogging my pores as it changed color! Plus my skin felt extremely soft and clean after just one application!
It states on the packaging though to use it 2 to 3 times per week, I did use it as directed for the first few weeks, but as time passed by, I began using it less and less and now I just use it once a week and it does the trick!
My skin has been less prone to breakouts since the day I started using this mask and I’ve probably used up 6 to 7 tubes till date! And the best part is I keep going back for more every time!
I’m simply obsessed with it and would totally recommend this to everyone but especially those who have oily skin🙂

RATING!

Price: 5/5
Product: 5/5
Packaging: 4.5/5

Life Update! I Got Nikkahfied! Detailed Post!!!

Hey Everyone Welcome Back To My Blog!! I know my regular readers are asking me every now and then where have I been in the past couple of weeks, and also why am I so MIA on the blog. Well the reason is stated in the title! I got Nikkahfied on 16th April, 2017, and this is the main reason for me being not active on the blog! So the preps actually started in late January, I wanted a dress that spoke to me, so I wanted to be sure that I am choosing something that I have always imagined myself wearing on my big day. Although I will be having a proper wedding in future, so I wanted to keep it as minimalist as possible, and also chic at the same time. I did not want a total bridal vibe, but simultaneously, I wanted something that made me stand out of the crowd. So I bought an embellished fabric from Rabi Centre, that's located in Bahria Town Phase 7, and I wanted it to be stitched as a floor length Maxi dress. The tailor however did not follow my instructions, and made a floor le
