Malin + Goetz Detox Face Mask: Take the Day Off

Exactly how many layers do I put on my face daily? Sunscreen, protective serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation. Uh…! I’m starting to freak out about how thick I’m piling stuff onto my skin. It seems like my face could sure use a good detox.

As soon as I saw Malin + Goetz‘s Detox Face Mask, I said, “Yes, please!” I have been using it for three straight days now and I’m loving it. This opaque foaming gel mask has a combo of oxygenating cleansers that in just 3-5 minutes work into your pores to gently, yet powerfully, clean them out. In fact, it so deeply penetrates your pores that it takes a bit of effort with a washcloth to rinse it off.

I’ve been opting to put it on before I shower and then wash it off as my last step before getting out. I find this helps to thoroughly rinse the foam off, and it saves time. Considering the humid heat I’m currently living in (trying to embrace it!), it can be quite difficult to keep my pores completely clear. But after using the mask, it’s very obvious when my skin is clean. And it cleanses without stripping or tightening the skin.

In fact, it actually moisturizers your skin by creating a barrier to seal in hydration. And the soy protein, Vitamin E and Vitamin C help keep skin firm – and prevent aging! Use it three times a week to get excellent results. If you’re in extreme circumstances – as in daily foundation use and profuse sweating – then it’s fine to use it daily. I’ve been accustomed to a good exfoliation every three days, but since using this my skin has been smooth and peachy. Nothing like a good detox! On Amazon for $40.
