Two thumbs up! This face mask injects radiance into stressed-out complexions in one quick application. I leave this on my face for 15minutes and it feels genuinely clean and refreshed after every use. I can't say it rids of unwanted blemishes but I do believe it refines enlarged pores. I would definitely recommend this product!

PS very pocket friendly!!!

I really like this mask. It absorbs the excess oil and gives my face a tingly feeling. It really helps reduce the size of my pores and shrinks my pimples. It also helps bring up some blackheads and whiteheads to the surface. My mask came in a jar from Sally's beauty supply. For the amount in the big jar is definitely worth the price. Give it a try!(:

There is no better face mask than this- and it's SO cheap. Screw all those expensive name brand masks. This one has done me good for YEARS.

Love this mask. The smell is divine! When I have really bad acne, I mix it with a pinch of salicylic acid gel or benzyl peroxide, and leave it on overnight. When I wash it off in the morning, my pores are practically invisible!

I think this stuff was made in heaven, because it is amazing! I have been using this since I was 13 years old, and now I'm 20. I use it mostly just on my nose and around that area. It almost completely shrinks my pores and makes my skin baby soft. I use this usually every few days, or when I'm just frustrated with how my skin looks. LOVE LOVE LOVE

I love this stuff! I have big pores and this helps shrink them. Does decently with drying out my pimples. Invigorating smell. Only cost $3.00 which is well priced compared to other pricer masks.

I've had a crazy couple months with my skin lately. Mostly stress and hormones. My skin has been quite oily yet dehydrated with some cystic pimples that are really red and painful.I was a bit skeptical about trying this cause I haven't had the best experiences with facial masks. Either their too expensive and do nothing or they're expensive and I have a weird reaction. This stuff is my new favorite. For starters, I bought it at Walgreens and with my little walgreens swipe card it was like 3 bucks which is awesome. For how much I paid you get quite a lot of product. The one tube has 8 oz in it. Not sure if there's bigger or smaller sizes cause I only found this one but I think that's a great amount for the money you spend. The packaging is just a simple squeeze tube, comes out pretty easily. The smell is one of the things that sold me. It smells like double mint gum. So soothing and yummy at the same time. You apply it pretty generously all over your face. I'm not gonna like when you first put it on your face it kinda burns. Not tingles, it burns and that made me kind anxious but it stops after a few seconds of it sitting on there. You leave it on for about 15-20 mins, I saw some people leave it on over night but I wouldn't do that unless you're leaving it on one little spot. It starts to dry and tighten on your face, the color also changes a bit. I washed it off after 20 mins and I have to say I DID see a difference. The red patches on my face had calmed down quite a bit and any blackheads I had had gone down quite a bit. Also the one big nasty pimple I had wasnt as sore and started to dry a bit. If you have blackheads this will be your best friend, it really sucks them out of your face and I have no idea how. It's pretty dang awesome. Also because of the burning sensation I had felt in the beginning, I thought it was gonna make my skin really tight and dry but it was quite the opposite. My skin felt so soft and hydrated! I am super impressed. I am definitely adding this to my skin care routine and I can definitely say it's made this stress case of acne a lot easier to deal with. I'm in love.

I was excited to try this product after hearing all the hype but sadly, it did nothing for me.
It did not clear impurities after using up the entire bottle. I did think the packaging was good as if this had been in a tub it would've been messy.

The minty tingling sensation is ok but it does lean more towards a burn sometimes. I didn't see any improvement with this product and neither did my boyfriend after I made him use it (ha!).
I used the masque once a week at most and it turned my oily skin dry and flakey.

I am trying the Aztec Indian Healing Clay next.

This stuff is good for when you don't want to spend more $$ on a mask, but I think there are better masks that are far more effective out there. Evanhealy (avial at Whole Foods and online) has a much better one that works much better. The Queen Helene one is nice for spot treatments--pimples do reduce in size overnight with this--but I don't really like using this as a whole face mask. The smell is a little overwhelming, sort of like plastic and sulfur. I also don't think it really does much as a weekly treatment. I'm finishing my first tube of this, but won't be repurchasing.

Overall I really really like this product. I'm going on my 3rd bottle and use it quite regularly. It works well with my combo skin and helps dry up pimples quickly! My only complaint is the packaging, it gets super hard to get any product out of the tube when you've used most of it but still have a fair amount left. Otherwise I would recommend this product to anyone in search of a good affordable mask that gets the job done.

I was blown away by the results and definetly by the price of this product! Holy Sh---, $2 for a face mask? I'm in! Wow is all I can say..For only 2 dollars I definetely won't complain about the small setbacks. My only warning is for people with sensitive skin...THIS STUFF IS STRONG! It's very tingly and almost has a burning sensation, but it's a kind of burning that feels really good, I know that's weird but you just have to try it out and you'll see what I mean..For $2, what do you have to lose? Can't wait to try other Queen Helene Masks!

I've used this regularly over the past 5 years, and lately I've been trying it out on my boyfriend. He has a ton of blackheads on his nose, but this seems to be slowly reducing them. Whenever I have a pimple I apply a little of this mask over it, and leave it on over night. It's usually halved by the next morning.
If you're a new customer at Iherb you can practically get this for free if you enter my coupon code ATE375 at checkout. It'll give you a $5 discount on orders under $40, or a $10 discount if you order more than $40 worth of stuff

Nothing short of amazing.

I have combination skin that is very sensitive, and I'd noticed clogged and larger pores on my nose, chin, and other places on my face. The reviews are pretty great on this so I thought, why not?

The mask goes on cool and refreshing, and in about 15-20 minutes tightens up nicely. What was really amazing to me was that I could see tiny spots of oil/nastiness that the mask had actually drawn out of my pores on my nose and chin - I have never seen another product do that.

After rinsing off and patting dry, my face is glowing, pores are much smaller, and blemishes gone. It was like a miracle treatment, which I did not expect.

My skin was left soft and refreshed, with no irritation. I do moisturize after using this, since it can be slightly drying.

Highly recommended. Best thing I've tried in years.

This stuff is amazing! I read about it on line when I was desperate for something to clear up my skin. I live in Canada and to find this product was hard, but I found it at Sally Beauty Supplies so I didn't have to order it on line. The one I bought was in a jar and was only $7.00 and you do get alot! The first time I used it I could actually see it pulling gunk out of my pores as it dried. It also works as a good spot treatment at night when you feel a new pimple starting to appear. It is worth a try and you get alot of bang for your buck with this product.

This used to reduce my acne but I hadn't tried it in years until recently. My skin has gotten more dry as I approach 30, and this mask just steals what little moisture my skin has. It is left feeling uncomfortably taught and unbearably dry. Recommended for those with oily skin, but not for the rest of us.

This is the best mask I have ever used. A mask that really works, brightens the face and decreases your spots. My skin has really improved now and hopefully it stays like this. Whenever I have a 'bad skin day' I can always use this to save me! Its so cheap as well, which really, really helps. I love this product and use this over night on the areas that need a little improvement. It is a life saver, for me :)
