Face Masks

What does a clay face mask do?

A clay mask absorbs excess sebum, removes impurities and dead skin cells from pores. Kaolin and bentonite clays act like magnets, drawing out dirt from deeper layers of the skin. The Clay Mask AHA by Baxter of California combines dual clays with fruit acids for thorough cleansing and gentle exfoliation.

How often should I use a face mask?

The ideal frequency is 1–3 times per week, depending on your skin type. Oily skin can handle 2–3 applications, while normal or sensitive skin benefits from once weekly. Leave the mask on for 5–10 minutes and rinse before it dries completely to prevent dehydration.

How do I apply a clay mask correctly?

Apply a thin layer to a clean, dry face, avoiding the eye and lip area. Let it work for 5–10 minutes until it begins to tighten, then rinse with lukewarm water. Follow with a moisturiser to restore your skin's hydration levels after the deep cleansing treatment.

Which mask is best for oily skin?

For oily skin, masks containing kaolin and bentonite clay are the best choice as they absorb sebum effectively without causing irritation. The Clay Mask AHA by Baxter of California features both clay types along with lactic acid that improves skin texture and tone with regular use.

What should I do after using a face mask?

After rinsing, gently pat your face dry and apply a moisturiser to restore hydration levels. Use sunscreen if going outdoors, especially with masks containing acids. Avoid chemical exfoliants on the same day to prevent irritation and allow your skin to recover from the deep cleansing treatment.

Why choose a mask with AHA?

Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) provide chemical exfoliation that removes dead cells and improves radiance. Combined with clay, the deep cleansing becomes more thorough. Baxter of California pairs AHA with soothing calendula and aloe extracts that calm the skin after the cleansing process.
