Designed for the most problemed of skin types, we’re talking spots, blemishes and blackheads; this mask will shift them all. Great for men’s skin as it’s effectively powerful but gentle at the same time. Men’s skincare tends to be so much more powerful and sometimes our skin does need the power but delivered with a gentle touch.

Liz Earle, being famous for beautiful, naturally active ingredients which in this case include green clay to draw out impurities, soothing manuka honey, propolis and rose-scented geranium. Other notable ingredients are Dehydroacetic acid, a natural bactericide, and Polyaminopropyl biguanide, another effective anti-bacterial ingredient. These will really reduce any spots and blemishes but without being too harsh with the use of such ingredients as BP etc.

It comes out as a thick slate coloured clay / cream that you apply generously to the skin and leave it for a good 10 minutes or so. After rinsing off and if my experience is anything to go by, then your skin will look dramatically brighter and feel smoother. I felt the effects of this mask last a good couple of days
