I picked up the Formula 10.0.6 No Time To Shine Oil Absorbing Mud Mask because my skin has been a total pain in the ass recently, getting all oily and icky with the change of season. Mud masks are amazing for drawing out excess oil and calming cranky skin - ingredients like calendula, sea kelp and kaolin clay filled me with confidence. My high expectations were shattered about 2 minutes after I applied the mask and my skin started to burn. This wasn't the good kind of tingle you get when a mask is doing its business, oh no, this was a full on burn. Burn! I took the mask off straight away and thankfully there was no damage, but it was a total beast to get off.
Has anyone used this mask before? Did you find it burned or was it just my skin?

Why you need it: It might work for you, but all I got was a sore face and a few anxious minutes.

I've used the Deep Down Detox mud mask and had the same experience - burny ouchieness.
It's weird, I remember their stuff being awesome when I was a teen... is it that they've got new formulas or that I'm more discerning now?
I havn't used this particular one, but I've tried the one in the orange tube, and any other kind of kaolin clay mask leaves my skin tingling in a way that doesn't feel quite right.
I would like to say we have got more discerning, but I don't remember anything ever being this ouchy before, so they must have changed the formula.
What other kaolin masks have you tried Ally? Must add them to my black list.
I love these mud masks - but I use the orange and pink ones. I can't remember the names of them but they are delicious. This green one DID give me too much of a tingle to be pleasant - more of a burning feeling, actually. I get a little tingle from the pink and orange ones but it's fine after a few minutes. And I have sensitive skin! x
Haven't tried this particular one, but use the orange one sometime..
It burns/tingles sometimes.. but just feels like its working other times. It may just have something to do with the sensitivity/condition of skin at the time..
I have the pink one and it is beyond painful, especially around my nose :(
