Did Origins change the formula? 30+ year user. Bought the large size at local Ulta, shocked that it was a clear goo, not the charcoal clay mask its always been. Washed off immediately & rinse water was sudsy. I don't want to exchange it if this is a new formula, I will just return the product. So sad.

- Official Answer By Origins US ENThank you for reaching out. We have not had a formulation change, however, we have repackaged, so it may look different on the outside.

Hi, I have acne prone skin with witheheads and blackheads. How is this product different than Origins Clear Improvement Blackhead Clearing Mask-to-Scrub? Which one would be better for removing both white and black comedones without causing a breakout? Thank you.
- Asked by RM
- Official Answer By Origins US ENGreat question! Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Face Mask to Clear Pores is smooth in texture, while Origins Clear Improvement Blackhead Clearing Mask-to-Scrub has exfoliating granules. For those experiencing current breakouts in addition to blackheads, we recommend Origins Out of Trouble 10 Minute Mask to Rescue Problem Skin. It's specifically formulated for acne & oil control. Best to hold off on exfoliating scrubs until current breakouts are under control.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Does this product expire after opening? I read that activated charcoal as an ingredient can last a very long time. I bought mine back in march 2022. The product seems the exact same as when opened. I just didnt want to use it if it's recommended not to be used after a certain period of time after opening.
- Asked by Ann
- Official Answer By Origins US ENThank you for checking! Some products include a Period After Opening (PAO) number (which shows a number followed by “M”) that indicates the number of months within which an opened product should be used or replaced. Once a product is opened and used, its integrity can be affected by such things as exposure to environmental conditions or from contact with the user’s skin. If a product is not fully used following that time frame, we suggest replacing it in order to assure product integrity. OR Unopened products should be good for at least 3 years under normal use conditions provided they are not exposed to extreme heat or cold.Was this answer helpful to you

My go-to mask
I never really tried masks before, but my clogged pores started creating blackheads and I tried this mask I received as a sample. After only one use, my pores cleaned up very well and all my blackheads were sitting right at skin level, waiting to come out if I pressed my nose or cheeks slightly. So,...

Sensitive Skin: Beware
Bought this product because I've heard great things. Once I used it, I had a full blown allergic reaction! My skin had red inflamed spots in the area of application for 45 min after use along with a slight burning sensation. It did leave my face feeling smooth, however, I would be careful before pur...

I've been using this charcoal mask for 8 years and when I got my last shipment… I thought I purchased the small one by mistake. I checked the website to be sure, and nope. I noticed the increase in price from $26 to $35, but they ALSO reduced the size from 3.4oz to 2.5oz. I did the math, it's nearly double the price per ounce.

I use this one weekly to clear my pores. With work, I'm often outdoors and sweating, I get dirty or dusty or metal on me. I use this mask to clean and purify my pores. I haven't had break outs since using this.

Pore Refining: Regular use of the mask can help to refine the appearance of pores, leaving the skin looking smoother and more even-toned. This can result in a clearer complexion with fewer visible imperfections. Balanced Formula: The mask typically contains a balanced blend of ingredients that help to purify the skin without overly drying it out. This makes it suitable for a variety of skin types, including oily and combination skin. Easy Application: The mask is easy to apply and typically spreads smoothly over the skin. Many users find that a little goes a long way, so the 100 ml size offers good value for money. Quick Results: Users often report seeing results after just a few uses, with clearer, more radiant skin that feels smoother and more refined. Refreshing Sensation: The mask can provide a refreshing sensation when applied, leaving the skin feeling cool and invigorated. This makes it a pleasant addition to any skincare routine.
