About the Product
This portable clay stick mask deep cleans pores and absorbs excess oil without drying out your skin. Centella Asiatica (also called Cica) is a soothing plant extract known for calming irritation and supporting skin barrier health—it helps balance out the clarifying clays so your skin feels refreshed, not stripped. The soft, moist texture glides on smoothly and rinses off easily with lukewarm water.

FAQs
Q: Can I use the Skin1004 Clay Stick Mask if I have sensitive skin?
A: This mask is formulated for oily and combination skin types; those with sensitive skin should patch test first and limit use to 3-5 minutes, as the clay and exfoliating particles may cause irritation on reactive skin.
Q: How often should I use this clay mask?
A: Use 1-3 times per week depending on your skin's tolerance and oil production levels; avoid daily use to prevent over-drying.
Q: Can I use this mask on my nose only for blackheads?
A: Yes, the stick format allows for targeted application on specific areas like the nose, chin, or T-zone where blackheads and enlarged pores are most visible.
Q: When in my skincare routine should I use this mask?
A: Apply after cleansing on dry skin, leave on for 5-10 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water and continue with your toner and moisturizer.
Q: How long until I see results with my pores and blackheads?
A: You may notice reduced oiliness and smoother texture after the first use, but visible improvement in blackheads and pore appearance typically takes 2-4 weeks of consistent use.
Q: Can I use this mask with other exfoliating products like AHAs or BHAs?
A: Avoid using chemical exfoliants on the same day as this mask since the red bean powder provides physical exfoliation—doubling up can lead to irritation or over-exfoliation.
Q: Is the stick format hygienic to use directly on my face?
A: Yes, applying directly to clean, dry skin is fine; just make sure to let the stick dry completely before recapping to prevent bacteria growth.
How to Use
Cleanse your face thoroughly and pat dry. Open the outer cap and twist the lower half of the stick to push up the product, then remove the inner cap. Apply the mask evenly across your face, focusing on the T-zone or areas with visible pores while avoiding the eye and mouth areas. Leave the mask on for 3-5 minutes for standard use, or 10-15 minutes for enhanced results. Once the mask has dried, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Follow with toner and moisturizer.
