St. Ives Blue Clay Firming Mask

Average member rating of 7.0
Average member rating
Rated a 6.0
I use this simple kaolin clay mask sometimes when I'm home alone, puttering about in my PJs. It lacks a noticeable scent or exfoliating elements, but it soaks up oil effectively. After 10 minutes, skin feels dry and super-taut. Whether the spackle-like mask deep cleans, lifts away dead skin cells and stimulates collagen is debatable, but a good, warm rinse leave cheeks firm and smooth. Dry skin types, beware. This may be too drying.

I was familiar with the St Ives products so i decided to try this mask. I LOVED It. It did everythhing i needed it to with a few extra pluses...it closed my pores leaving my face feeling tighter than before, AND it made my face super soft!!! i hadnt even moisturized yet and it felt like porcelain smooth. i recommend using right before bed maybe twice a week. also keep in mind..a little goes a long way with this product. Yes, it's a mask..but it does the job with out having to be spread on like frosting on a cake =] April 6, 2008, 9:52 pm

    Cheap enough to give away if you hate it

    by KrisLT (30 reviews)
    This is only the third brand facial mask I've tried. The other two were samples included in a kit - I liked the other two better. Did my face feel any firmer after using St Ives?

February 26, 2008, 8:36 pm This is only the third brand facial mask I've tried. The other two were samples included in a kit - I liked the other two better. Did my face feel any firmer after using St Ives? No. Did it feel any softer after using this product? Yes! Did it feel softer than the other two mask brands I used? Not really. The good news is, it's definitely cheap enough to try so if your face has seen as many rock concerts and late night drink parties as mine has seen and you suddenly wake up and realize Mother Nature has stolen your youth as she did mine (Cruel woman -that Mother Nature), this is definitely an inexpensive start. You can later graduate to the big boys if you need to. I wound up giving this to my 25 year old daughter. She says "it's not bad". In her world that means "I'll use it since it didn't cost me anything". Bottom line - average but cheap enough to try. February 26, 2008, 8:36 pm

    great mask for a low price!

    by sarahmb (8 reviews)
    I don't think that my skin feels much "firmer" after using this mask, but it definitely feels very deep-cleaned and refreshed. A great pick-me-up! And you only have to use a little bit once a week, so the bottle will last for awhile. November 30, 2007, 12:11 pm

    Great!

    by vmilldog (9 reviews)
    I just recently purchased this product and I love it! You can feel it tighting as it dries. The end result my face felt tighter and cleaner.. It does dry out your skin but that is perfect for people like me with oily skin..I would recommend this product. September 7, 2008, 11:40 am

    I love this stuff!!!

    by alison1988 (5 reviews)
    I was looking for a new facial mask because I am big into non-animal testing companies and because Olay did not make a mask anymore when I ran out. This was better than the Olay stuff and I will def. be buying again!!! August 29, 2008, 9:45 pm

    smoooooth!

    by Kimwaldman (8 reviews)
    After using this St. Ives mask, my skin felt sooo smooth. My make up went on beautifully the morning after and my pores seemed to be noticeably smaller after using it for a couple weeks. Best part is it won't break bank account. July 3, 2008, 11:53 am
