Biore Self Heating One Minute Mask

I heard many good things about using charcoal based products to clear away impurities from skin. I figured this would be a good time to try it since it seems tons of charcoal based products are cropping up. The product is very easy to use; just smooth the mask over wet skin. The natural charcoal  draws out skin’s impurities along with dirt and oil. They claim this mask is self heating, which is utter crap. I applied it to my wet skin, and only when I using fingers to massage in the mask did the mask generate heat.  When I did wash off the mask, my face did have a nice cooling sensation. My face did feel fresh but it was a bit tight after  washing off my mask.  I kind of wish there was more than just 4 packets especially since they recommend you using this product 2 to 3 times a week.

Skin Problems Solved

Acne that won’t quit - regularly swipe your cell with alcohol wipes, rinse makeup brushes with soapy water and don’t touch your face. It could really clear things up.

Dark circles - regularly  applying a retinol product thickens skin so less blue gets through. Follow with concealer a shade lighter than skin. For women of color, dark pigment’s usually the problem; try tinted cover-up with a lighter.

Blotchy skin  - redness on cheeks can be a sign of rosacea - a condition many young women don’t realize they have. It’s easily controllable with an Rx topical gel. Dark patches are typically sun damage. As good as a derm office peel: after cleansing, wipe your face with a glycolic-acid pad to remove discolored cells and expose fresh skin.
