How do I use this mask correctly, and how often should I apply it?

Start with freshly cleansed, damp skin. Open one 7 ml sachet and apply the mask in a thin, even layer across the face, avoiding the eye and lip area. Let it dry completely — this usually takes 10 to 15 minutes. As the kaolin clay dries, it draws out excess sebum and surface residue. Once dry, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water, using gentle circular motions; the oatmeal particles provide a very mild physical exfoliation as you rinse. Pat skin dry with a clean towel.

Frequency: the product is designed for weekly use, or whenever the T-zone looks shiny, pores appear more visible, or the skin feels uneven after makeup, sunscreen, or urban exposure. Because clay is an active cleanser, using it more than twice a week can compromise the barrier, especially on normal or combination skin. If you already use chemical exfoliants (AHA/BHA) or retinoids, schedule the mask on a different evening to avoid over-stripping.

Each sachet is a single-use portion. If you have product left after covering the face, you can extend it down to the neck and décolleté, but do not reseal an opened sachet for later — the clay will dry out and the formula is not preserved for multi-day storage once opened.
