Soap & Glory™ No Clogs Allowed™ Deep Pore Detox Mask

I've wanted to try a good detoxing mask for my face for a long time but never found one that I ever got along with; until now. Whilst in boots with one of my friends I saw this and what first bought it to my attention was the “so long blackheads” and “super self-heating” on the packaging. For someone who does get clogged pores easily I thought this would be fantastic to try.



The instructions recommend you use a grape sized amount of the formula once or twice a week into the face using your fingertips. Once that has been done you’re advised to wet your hands and scrub your face … this is where you’ll feel the heating sensation of the product on the skin. At first I was rather taken back by the heating of the product on the skin as I wasn't sure if I liked the feeling of it, or whether that was going to be good for my skin. Luckily (for myself) the heating of the product didn't last too long. As for its claims for “wet your hands and scrub until you’re blue in the face – literally.” I thought I was going to be bright blue as though some look alike of Violet Beauregarde from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory after she ate the chewing gum, but to my dismay it was just a slight tint of blue.

It mentions at the bottom of the packaging about avoiding contact with the eyes by saying “This mask contains exfoliating acids, heating ingredients ad a fair bit of skin smoothing scrub stuff, none of which are particularly agreeable with an eyeball. Oooch.” Which made me giggle a bit but states that if you do come in contact with it in your eyes then to use a dry cloth to remove the product and rinse the area thoroughly with plenty of water. Which to be honest is a quite logical thing to do if you get something in the eye.

Nevertheless, rubbing this product into my face, wetting my hands and scrubbing until I was (slightly) blue in the face, I left the product on for 3-5 minutes which you can do before sponging off, or you can leave it on for just 1 minute for a quick fast refresh. Once washing the product off my face my skin felt so very smooth which was a lovely feeling, my skin looked very clear and it looks as though it does stand up to all its claims (bar going totally blue in the face).
I would defiantly recommend this product to anyone, it retails for £11.50 in Boots. I give this product an 8/10 simply due to being let down my the blueness that my face would turn and not being so keen on the heating of the product, but bar from that it is a wonderful product that leaves the skin feeling fresh, smooth and clean.

Would I recommend this product? – Yes, most defiantly.
Was the product worth the money? – Again, yes most defiantly.
Would I purchase the product again? – Of course.


I hope you're all having a wonderful day and I have a special surprise for you within the next day or so! - Keep tuned.
