AXIS-Y

Best face mask I have tried. I have a difficult skin type: mostly dry, but also sensitive and easily red, and I have also suffered from moderate acne. This mask evens out the skin tone immediately on the first use. It has a soothing effect on the skin and is therefore great for sensitive and redness-prone skin. It also helps keep acne at bay. It doesn't dry out the skin! It dries to a matte finish in about ten minutes, but the skin doesn't feel tight or dry after use. One of the only products that clearly makes a difference. It has a strong herbal and earthy scent, but I find it quite pleasant. There are also small pieces in it (I'm not sure what they are), but they don't feel on the skin and don't irritate/come off when washing. Overall, a really good product.

Works super well when you can feel a pimple coming, apply after washing. I use it about 3 times before the pimple just disappears again 😊

Skin type: Combination, tendency to get pimples (unclear which kind). Easily gets oily in the t-zone but at the same time dry in winter. This was a nice clay mask. Dries quickly in 10-15 minutes. A bit of a strong earthy scent but a natural scent. It is also supposed to be fungal acne safe, as far as I understand. Which, for example, Beauty of Joseon Red Bean does not seem to be. I have tried this once and feel my skin is very soft and smooth afterwards. I have never used clay masks before because I was a bit skeptical about whether they dry out the skin. But this one does not dry out at all, on the contrary, my skin felt hydrated and I didn’t need as many moisturizing products after cleansing as I usually do! Result: Soft and smooth, more even skin surface. Rating: Still only gets 4 out of 5 since I don’t feel that a clay mask is a must in the skincare routine, more like a fun thing to vary with 🧝‍♀️ Mask brush: MASHH Duo Face Brush #lykoreview
