- We're trying this viral face mask.
I've had really bad cystic acne
for about eight years.
My acne's not just a vanity thing.
It also is very painful.
- I've been eating a lot of fast food,
specifically Popeye's, so I've been breaking out pretty bad.
- My skin type is combination.
I'll be fine for a couple days
and then out of the blue a pimple will pop up.
- My skin is very oily and it's very acne prone.
- I'm a little nervous.
You see on the side here it says,
"Feel your face pulsate!"
- It smells like what you would think
clay would smell like.
- It feels pretty much like powdered sugar.
- Directions say, "Mix clay with equal parts
"of raw apple cider vinegar and or water."
I read in the reviews that it was better
to use apple cider vinegar than water.

- This shit is tight on my face.
Sorry you're getting a front row seat,
but I really wanna show you guys how flakey this is.
- I'm kind of feeling the pulsating sensation right now.
- So I just rinsed it all off.
My skin is a little bit red,
but they said that that's normal
and it should decrease within 30 minutes.
- So I just woke up.
I gotta say, I think my complexion's
actually a little bit better.
- My skin was a lot softer than it usually is today.
- The patches, the redness over here,
it faded away, but it's still there,
but it just decreased in size.
- You really only need half a tablespoon
of the powder itself.
- FYI, these little brushes
you can get pretty much anywhere,
like any beauty supply store.
They're like $2 and they make all the difference.
- So I left the mask on for a little bit longer today
and my skin is still so tight.
I almost feel like I still have the mask on.
- I'm feeling just a little bit dry
because I have combination skin
so I'm gonna put some of my moisturizer on
just so that it doesn't dry my skin out.
(cheerful, rhythmic music)
- My skin is really clear,
my pores feel really clean,
and even if this is doing nothing, at the very least,
I feel like I'm taking an extra step
to take care of myself so that's great.
- It's the last night of our face mask experience.
- You guys would think that after doing this for awhile,
consecutively, for so many days,
it would be part of my life.
No, I'm still Izzy and it was a huge commitment.
- I just went to see my dermatologist
and she actually told me my skin was looking really good.
The mask is doing somethin'.
I'm gonna keep using it. It's been a good day.
- Honestly, my skin feels amazing.
My pores have minimized on my cheeks.
I wouldn't do this every day
because it is very laborious.
However, I would incorporate this into my skincare regiment.
On my left side, I noticed that my small little pimples
definitely disappeared and if there was any redness,
it definitely reduced in size.
- It was okay. I would do it again.
I probably will do it again
because it's fun and it's really refreshing.
It smells good and it feels tingly,
but I don't think I'm in it for life
with this, unfortunately.
- My skin is really smooth right now
and a lot of the acne I had at the beginning of this
is pretty much gone.
I kind of just decided for no real reason
to not put on face makeup for most of the week
and it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be.
Whether it was truly working or not,
maybe it was like a placebo effect,
but it was really nice to go out for once with no makeup
and be like, "You know what? Whatever.
"This is what my skin looks like and I'm just gonna do it."
