New formula
I must say this was my hero product. I think the formula has changed and it is not as effective as previously. I can definitely see the difference compared to when I used to use it in the past. The bottle got bigger and the product got worse. Sad, but I will not be purchasing this anymore. I hope th...

BUY IT!!!
I originally bought this for my boyfriend but ended up keeping it for myself. This stuff is amazing! I had white heads that were coming in and already formed. It worked like magic removing them. I shared and it worked with him too!

This is my go-to when I'm having a breakout. The color is weird but it works great
Made me feel so much better about my skin!

I have had issues for several months with breakouts around a certain time of the month. It's been so frustrating, as I'm 40! I purchased this product and I've used it anytime I've seen pimples coming on (or full on), and they've disappeared so quickly. I use it only on the areas where the breakout is coming on, as I don't want to dry out other areas. It sounds odd, but this product has made me feel so much better about my skin!

I've been using the ordinary brand for about 3 years now, and through time I have advanced from beginners skin care to now advanced. I spend a lot of money on skincare products and I really can say, I see the most results with this brand. And you literally can't beat their prices. It's sensible and affordable. I WANT TO MAKE A PSA FOR ANY OF YOU THAT MAY BE NEW TO USING THINGS LIKE THIS!!! **Go to the ordinary's actual website, search your product, and read thoroughly their instructions. They are far more detailed and helpful!** Back to my review though! I have used this about 6x now in the past 3 weeks, and I LOVE THIS MASK! I have always been a fan of a good clay mask, but this one is awesome. It is refreshing, and it does every single thing that it reads. Stop buying those 50….70 dollar products and get yourself started on the ordinary. There's 100% no way you won't love it.

I use it once a week, great as spot treatment, as it helps dry pimples.
