Pur Minerals Mineral Mudd Masque

It's no secret that I love the CC Cream from Pur Minerals (review) but this is my first dabble with any skin care from the brand. Unlike most mud masks, this Mineral Mudd Masque* can be left on the skin for upto half an hour or if you're in a rush, 2 minutes will do the job. The results won't be quite as impressive but 2 minutes still give this muddy miracle enough time to work some magic.

When this stuff tightens, it tightens, to the point where I feel/look like I've had a face lift. My eyebrows almost reach my hair line and talking is near impossible (funny to watch in a mirror) once removed my face returns to normal but feels smoother, tighter and looks clearer. The only downside for me with mud masks is that they tend to be quite drying on the skin so for that reason I never leave it on for longer than 20 minutes, I allow it to fully dry before removing which is usually around 15/20 minutes. Your skin type will depend on how often you need to use this mask but twice a week seems to be perfect for me. On Sunday's I apply it all over my face avoiding the eye area and on Wednesday's I apply it only to my t-zone.

Removing this mask can be quite tricky. I find the easiest, quickest way is to soak a flannel in warm water and leave it on my face for around a minute to loosen the mud before I try to remove it.

Have you tried this Mineral Mudd Masque?

  1. I like the sound of this - I sometimes do a double treatment with clay ones where I'll use a hydrating/moisture mask afterwards, my skin seems to love it! x

    1. I do that too but usually only if I've used it all over my face instead of just the t-zone. Makes a huge difference doesn't it.

  2. Sounds like it works well, I love using clay body masks but for some reason my skin reacts when I try them as a face mask - I think the tightening irritates a little. I'll definitely be checking out the brand though and having a peek at the CC Cream :) x

    1. Ohh, I've never tried a clay body mask. Which one do you use? My skin can react badly to some mud masks too. The CC Cream is brilliant :)
