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...

The only clay mask that works for me
Verified Reviewer
Reviewed at
I've used this mask on and off for over 10 years. I shop around for others sometimes because this one is kind of expensive. Lately I've been trying others that have a similar price point though and even they can't compare. I have super oily skin and large pores and this mask is the best thing short of a professional chemical peel that I've found to keep my pores clear. I've tried so many other hyped up clay masks and none of them do much of anything but with this one I can see a difference immediately after washing it off. I leave it on for as long as I can stand it, sometime even overnight which maybe is not recommended but for me it works. I'm going to stop wasting my money on other clay masks and just stick with this one from now on even if the price tag is a bit painful.
Combo Skin Lifesaver!
I am in my mid twenties and have struggled with acne for about 15 years or so. Additionally, I have large pores, uneveness, redness, oily, sensitive skin, just about everything you can put into a skin type. I've tried every solution under the sun, serums, creams, spot treatments, you name it, and NOTHING has cleared my skin more than this product. I bought it as a fun Valentine's spa date night idea and it's genuinely become a holy grail staple in my skincare routine (which is not extensive btw, I use the mask 1-2 times/week and pair with my go to moisturizer. simple but effective!) I leave the mask on for 15-20 min and gently wipe off with a slightly damp washcloth and immediately can tell the difference. My skin glows, my pores feel tight and clean. The following morning I'll notice my breakouts healing. It's even helped with toning down redness and existing acne scars. I can't say enough good things about this product - I've been really insecure about my skin for quite some time, especially as a lady in her mid twenties still struggling with acne. In just 2 weeks, this product has made a noticeable difference on my skin and my confidence is through the roof. Highly, highly recommend. If you are struggling with the price, know that a little goes a long way, and once a week is still enough for a noticeable difference!
Works for mature and teen skin!
I'm 43 with an oily T zone and large pores on my nose. Hereditary, sadly. I've been embarassed by my large pores for decades. My kiddo is 16 typical combo teen skin. Breakouts but nothing cystic. Shes good about being consistent with skin care. I didnt expect to love this mask as much as i do. It's much less messy than other clay masks and dries faster. My pores are visibly clearer and smaller snd my skin smoother after use every single time. My kiddo uses it and it smooths her texture and helps draw the ick out for her as well. The only drawback is price but i find tubes on sale here and there and it's so worth it. I use 2-3 times a week. She only needs it once a week. We love this mask!!
Reduction in enlarged pores
This product is amazing. Saw results in two uses. Skin feels tighter. Pores reduced in appearance. I'm going to use once a week. Hooked for sure. Doesn't take much product either to apply.
Love it!
My skin feels calm, balanced, and refreshed after use. No irritation. Easy to apply and remove.
