Aztec Secret

This is the only face mask that I was able to sustain using for more than one year. I do not like fussing around too many treatments on my face. I want my skin routine to be seamless and low maintenance. But this is worth the mess. I only do it once a week - 2 teaspoons mixed with 3 teaspoons of red wine vinegar to cover my face, jawline (where the pimples usually are) and upper neck. I apply it on my face using brush to evenly spread the mask on my nose and its creases. Let it soak for 20 minutes - around 15 minutes the pulsating begins then I wash it with warm water. The texture of the mask when washing it out feels oily. I figure that clay is pumping out the toxins and sebum underneath the skin to clarify it. It really works wonder on my pimples in the jaw line. Even the scars fades away after continuous use. But of course, this is not instant miracle. You have to continuously use it for months to see the amazing results. Right after the first use, my face is glowing and very smooth - so you will be encouraged to continuously use it. Just that you have to deal with vinegar smell and mess. I don't agree to those youtubers you are using it everyday. I think that can be very drying to the skin especially if your skin is sensitive. Once a week should be sufficient but use it for long term to achieve the best results.

After seeing this for soooo long I finally decided to try it on my hair first. Yes my curls actually looked very nice once my hair dried however the extra work and mess wasn’t worth it. I have conditioners and leave ins that give me the same results with half the time and hassle. Now as a face mask... because I generally have sensitive skin I mixed it with water first. Easy to mix, dried pretty quickly, easy to remove... my face felt tight which is expected after using any type of clay mask but I didn’t like how this one felt. After about 3 uses I went ahead and used half ACV half water and the results were the same. I put it down for about a month then decided to only use ACV, biggest mistake ever!! My entire face turned bright red as if I was laying out in the sun too long and it stayed that way for several hours. Luckily I didn’t break out or get a rash but I’ve officially given up.

If you suffer with oily skin, large pores, a few break outs here and there. This is something you SHOULD really try. I have used it for a week now and I have noticed the change in my complexion. My face is a lot brighter. It's not a magic potion that can get rid of acne in a day BUT from all that I have tried (and damn have I tried an array of products) this actually shows results. My white heads are drying up faster and my marks are lightening. Also, for the price, you get a big container that would last for some time. Yes, you better believe the hype! It's definately something to try.
