well, it kinda helps if you follow the directions on the packet..

all you do is dampen your face, rub it on, leave it dry and then wash it off..and as for it working, i don't know..i've only done it once or twice..it does look kinda cool when it's on though :p

yeah just open the packet, smear it all over your face, avoiding around the eyes. let it dry so it cracks when you open your mouth wide, then rinse it off with warm water.

i've used ten-o-six mud mask. it's supposed to soak up the access oil on your face.

i use them twice a week. i dont have a specific brand, but i like those ones you can buy 4 in a pack with all different ones. yes i cleanse before it. sometimes i moisturise afterwoods, depends on the mask. some are moisturising but with some your skin might feel a bit dry afterwoods. what brand is it? usually they have some instructions on the packet.

i used to do them weekly. my skin feels more clean and soft. i like to use different types of masks..mud..avocado.. they're good. but they don't get rid of pores. i was sadly fooled by the whole 'pore refining' mumbo jumbo on the facial mask packaging.

well pores can only be reduced if they dont have a buildup of crap inside them

do you have skin that tends to be more oily? or once was?

also, i would recommend anyone to not use products that contain ABH more than once a week as all this chemical does is thin your skin (removing the top layer) so it feels more smooth
