Loreal Paris Clay Mask Review | Pure-Clay Exfoliate & Refine Pores | Beauty Review | Indian Beauty Lifestyle Fashion Blogger

Loreal Paris brings a good face mask for all skin types.

 

While I was on a beauty buying spree couple of months ago, I was very focused on getting products specifically for pore care i.e. cleaning pores, refining them, dealing with blackheads et al. I got a gem in Innisfree Super Volcanic Clay Mousse Mask and Loreal Paris Pure-Clay Exfoliate & Refine Pores Mask was also bought in the same spree.

 

 

Since my skin is combination type and leans more towards dry than oily, I decided to go with Exfoliate & Refine instead of Purify & Mattify which seems to be geared more for oily skin types. Loreal Paris products have in the past not done any miracles on my skin but since almost every beauty blogger I know was going gaga over these little clay mask bottles, I decided to give it a spin too :)

L’Oréal Paris Pure Clay Mask Exfoliate & Refine Pores has 3 clays namely Kaolin + Montmorillonite + Moroccan Lava Clay along with Red Algae as its major Ingredients. Packaging looks good, colorful, but the little jar is bulky and not very travel friendly. Claims that Loreal Pure Clay Mask Exfoliate & Refine Pores addresses dead skin cells as well as dirt & oil build up to reveal polished, pore minimized and smooth complexion. Quantity is very less compared to price and even though only a little is needed every time, it will still get over in less than 3 weeks if used thrice a week.

 

 

Bought it from Amazon for Rs. 638 for 48 grams.

 

Opening the jar for the first time was a little disappointing since the quantity is so less. But only a little is needed to apply all over the face. The texture is creamy, color is beautiful coral (reddish-brownish), it spreads over face easily, hardens over 10 minutes after which I use warm water to wash it off. Minute exfoliating particles give deep cleaning to skin while washing it off.

 

My sensitive skin did not find anything allergic in the ingredients. My skin was left smooth though it did not do any magic on pores to shrink them but atleast face was deeply cleaned and it felt baby soft. I would say, this should be used before going out for a wedding or party because it immediately cleans skin deeply without making it dry and gives a nice glow. It also makes skin smooth to put on any makeup like magic so works like a primer in that sense :) Overall, happy with the product as it mostly does what it says.

YES

• Does what it claims
• Makes skin soft and smooth
• Exfoliates without scratching skin
• Does not make skin dry after washing off unlike other clay masks
• Imparts glow
• Works like a primer for putting on makeup
• Mild fragrance
• Available online on Amazon, Nykaa etc.

 

NO

• No magic on pores
• Not very effective on blackheads (though they do lessen after repeated applications)
• Very expensive for quantity provided

 

Recommended- YES. Overall it is a satisfactory product. If they took care of quantity, it would be near perfect. Rating is 4/5.
