A second product out of the Beautiful Box which came with the Goed Gevoel magazine a couple of weeks ago, is this Charcoal Detox Mask from Rainpharma. I like Rainpharma products, so I was eager to test this one out… let’s find out what I think!

The promises

This is what I could read on the Rainpharma website:

‘A radiant, healthy complexion begins with careful cleansing. This purifying mask reveals the natural beauty of your skin. A real boost for blemished, greasy skin, but an equally delightful detox for all other skin types.’

How to use

Put on a thin layer of the charcoal mask on your face. Leave it for 10-30 minutes and rinse of with lukewarm water.

People with greasy skin can use this mask in a cure by applying it daily for 7-14 consecutive days. People with normal skin can use this charcoal mask once a week.

Pros

• Very economic in use: you only need a thin layer, don’t overdo it!
• Nearly 100% natural.
• Cleansing effect.
• After use, my skin feels clean, soft and firm.
• Vegan? Go for it!
• 39 EUR for a 50 ml jar might seem on the expensive side, but you only need a tiny amount of product, so a jar will last for several months when used only once a week.

Cons

• I really don’t like the stale, mouldy smell… but that’s what you get when you work with nearly 100% natural products and don’t add perfume to beauty products! Oh well… I’ll live 🙂

Conclusion

This face mask really is so good for any skintype. I don’t have greasy skin, but I have been using this mask for several weeks in a row and I like the clean and soft effect.
