SKIN1004 Poremizing Clay Stick Mask review: what I do instead of squeezing

Poremizing Clay Stick Mask. Clay in a stick for the nose and cheeks. Pulls the oil and buildup out of the pore instead of squeezing.

My verdict

Clay in a stick, and the thing that cleared my husband's strawberry nose after one use, on camera. It pulls the oil and buildup out of the pore instead of squeezing it, which is the whole point of my stop-squeezing video. The pores are still the same size. They just are not full anymore.

How I use it

  1. Clean, dry face.
  2. Swipe it over the nose, chin and anywhere with blackheads.
  3. Ten minutes, until it starts to dry.
  4. Rinse with warm water. Do not scrub.
  5. Twice a week max, with the Clear Toner every night in between.

Who this is for

Strawberry nose, blackheads, big pores, an oily T-zone, anyone who squeezes.

Who this is not for

Irritated barrier or retinoid users: keep it to once a week and patch test. Not for dry cheeks.

Questions I get about it

Does the clay stick shrink pores?

No, nothing does. It empties them so they look smaller.

Can I use it every day?

No. Twice a week.

Do I need the toner too?

Yes, or the pores fill right back up.
