The body shop tea tree oil green clay mask

[Aevum]

i was in the body shop a couple of weeks back,
went to get some tea tree oil for this jock itch i had,

the thing is that i ask if they have some green clay masks,
aparently, they had this one with tea tree oil,

took it home to explore, its quite decent, it dosnt dry becuase of the oil, and my pores are somewhat smaller after 2 weeks of use,

it looks small at first, but its really thick, so a small ammount will cover your face, im still test driving it,

anyone else using this ?

Sounds interesting. How often have you used it during the two weeks?

[Aevum]

once every 2-3 days, basicly twice a week, the problem is that one test might not be objective, so i wanted to know if anyone else knew this product,

I've been adding tea tree oil to my french green clay for a short while now. Results are excellent! :w00t:

I've used the Bodyshop Tea Tree Oil mask for the past 3 months. I'd consider it a fairly average mask... I agree that a little goes a long way. But I wouldn't say that it had a massive effect... I recently bought from French Green Clay and I have to say that is astounding. I actually mixed some of the green clay mix with some of the Bodyshop Tea Tree mask and thought it worked just fine. This way the mask actually dries to your face - unlike the Bodyshop mask alone which mearely sits on your face for 10 minutes before you wash it off.

so, adding clay to the body shop mask or adding bodyshop mask to the clay ? and do you need to add more water to keep it in workable condition ?

I mixed up the green clay mixture and then added a fingertip sized scoop of the Bodyshop mask to the mix. I didn't need to add any more water after doing this, but I did only add a small amount.

Masking once a week is adequate. Generally, masking more often puts you at risk of stripping your skin unless it is exceptionally oily to begin with. Does the packaging direct you to do otherwise?

[Aevum]

the packaging says 1-2 times a week, and i have extreamly oily skin,

This is something i would like to try as too much oil causes spots for me. But, i wouldn't want to aggrevate my skin. Is this quite mild? Any suggestions?

Thanks,
