Occasionally, even dry skins need a clay mask like Murad Clarifying Mask because it can help minimise breakouts. I was having a minor acne issue on my chin so it was timely that I found this Murad mask which contains Kaolin and Bentonite. The mask is thick and not so easy to apply. I could feel it tightening and getting hard within minutes, felt a bit drying.

In fact, it felt too drying and I couldn’t wait to wash it off. Using a sponge also takes some effort, it is easier to remove it by massaging skin with wet fingertips first followed by the wet sponge. The result is more clarity and yes, it controls breakouts.
