Review of Black Face Mask
Black Mask is an effective remedy for saving skin damaged by acne, sebaceous plugs, and blackheads. On the face, a black film mask looks unattractive, even creepy, but it effectively removes sebaceous and mud accumulations from the skin pores, stimulates local metabolism, reduces slagging in the epidermis, and saturates the tissues with vitamins and minerals. Pores are narrowed, greasy shine disappears.

BUY BLACK MASK!
The black mask contains:
- Bamboo charcoal is the main component that delicately draws out toxins, dirt particles, and sebaceous accumulations from the pores.
- Wheat germ extract in a black mask is a source of antioxidants that rejuvenate and improve the condition of the skin, making the surface of the epidermis soft and silky.
- Grapefruit extract is a supplier of vitamins (A, C, E, group B) and mineral elements. Thanks to its vitamin composition, the component has a whitening and antibacterial effect, making the complexion smooth and healthy. Grapefruit oil normalizes sebum synthesis and water balance in skin tissues.
- Vegetable squalene (a carotenoid extracted from olive oil) acts in the mask as a skin aging inhibitor. Retains moisture, stimulates oxygen saturation of tissues.
- Panthenol (provitamin B5) in the black mask is a restorative component. Penetrates into the deep layers of the epidermis, accelerates the regeneration of skin tissue. The skin smoothes out and becomes elastic.
- Collagen is the basis of skin tone and elasticity.
- Water in mask is a binding component.
IMPORTANT! The synthetic components in the black mask include propylene glycol and polyvinyl alcohol. These are harmless adhesives that allow the drying gel to become a film.
Due to the harmlessness and naturalness of the Black Mask composition, the use of the product does not require consultation with a dermatologist. Before using the drug, you just need to do an allergy test: spread a small amount of the product on your wrist and leave for 15 minutes. If there is no skin reaction, then you can safely use a mask for your facial skin.
Efficiency
The black film mask has no analogues in terms of operating principle and effectiveness. Scrubs only remove dirt particles and dead cells from the surface of the skin, and a charcoal mask can pull out sebaceous and mud plugs from deep pores and normalize metabolism.
Black mask when used correctly:
- heals and slightly brightens the complexion;
- smoothes the skin surface;
- reduces sebum synthesis;
- removes dead cells from the surface;
- tightens pores;
- eliminates comedones and reduces the likelihood of new ones forming;
- eliminates greasy shine;
- saturates the skin with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants;
- reduces the likelihood of swelling, acne, pimples;
- tones and refreshes the face.
Texture
Black mask against blackheads is easily spread over the face, thanks to its viscous and viscous texture. It fits tightly to the skin. When dry, it sticks to the surface of the comedones, and when the mask is removed, the contents of the pores are literally drawn out.
ORDER BLACK MASK!
According to the instructions, you should not apply the product to your eyebrows or other areas where there is hair, otherwise the hairs will be torn out by the roots when you remove the mask. Since the face is covered with tiny hairs, many users note that when removing the film, they experience discomfort and even slight pain.
RECOMMENDATION! If a mask that has dried on your face is painful to remove, then it should be slightly moistened with water.
Ease of use
Black Mask can be used for the face for preventive and therapeutic purposes. Positive changes are noticeable after the first procedure, but the treatment course must last at least 20 days. For oily skin types, Black Mask is used for acne 2 times a week; for dry epidermis, you should not use the product more than once a week.
Using a charcoal mask is simple, and the composition can be spread on the entire face (except for the eyelid area), and only on problem areas. Applying and removing a film black mask does not cause any difficulties.
Step-by-step method of application:
- Steam the skin using any convenient method.
- Apply the product onto your face with a brush or your finger.
- Leave until set (about 20 minutes).
- Place the film on your chin with your fingers and gently and slowly pull it up.
- Wash. Apply moisturizer to your face.
- Do not leave the house for half an hour after the procedure.

Tips for choosing
Before purchasing one of the products presented above, we recommend that you pay attention to the selection criteria below.
- Consistency and smell. Any such product must have a dense consistency. It should not roll off your face. After application, you should feel comfortable enough to walk around and do your business with the mask. The aroma should not contain a lot of cosmetic fragrances, that is, it should be practically neutral and not hurt the mucous membranes of the eyes and nose.
- Skin type. Not all black masks are suitable for every skin type. Before purchasing this or that product, you should consult with a cosmetologist, because one product sufficiently moisturizes the dermis, while the other removes excess sebum. By mixing up products and your derma type, you can add serious skin problems to existing ones. Be careful.
- Hypoallergenic . Not all of the products reviewed have a hypoallergenic composition, so before purchasing it is better to use a tester and apply the product to the elbow. If your skin does not give any reaction within 20 minutes, then the product is suitable for you and you can safely use it.
