My new favorite mask - tarte Tight & Bright Clay Multi-Mask

I absolutely love this new mask! Had been eyeing this for quite a while & tried to wait for it...wait for it...and I just had to get it! Reviews were good and their ingredients are always decent so I took advantage of my recent Sephora discount and bought it.

Here's the product description:

Get a custom at-home facial with two targeted formulas that work in total harmony to treat your skin’s specific troubles zone by zone. Both formulas feature tarte’s iconic Amazonian clay to restore a gentle skin balance.

Purple Detoxifying & Purifying Exfoliating Mask is perfect for the oily T-zone, this shine control mask helps tighten pores and detox your skin from the day’s pollutants. Amazonian clay works as a natural purifier to treat blemishes and blackheads. Gentle micro-exfoliants polish away dead skin cells to treat flakes and uneven skin tone without over drying.

Gold Hydrating & Firming Gel Mask is ideal for dry or delicate areas like the cheeks and under the eyes. This hydrating and brightening treatment also helps calm redness and inflammation. Amazonian clay boosts clarity and circulation, while hyaluronic acid restores your skin’s natural moisture balance for a supple, soft, and energized look. 

Suggested Usage:
-Apply the purple clay mask wherever you want to tighten pores and minimize shine 
-Apply the gold gel mask wherever you want to hydrate and brighten dry or dull areas.

To apply each mask:
-Apply to clean, dry skin and leave on for 10 to 20 minutes. 
-Rinse well to remove.

It is a great product but doesn't really have the best instruction. I guess tarte wanted to make "multi-masking" a selling point, but I'd rather not put 2 masks on at the same time.  I actually like them separately because the purple/lavender part is a great for exfoliation. I would put them onto my nose, forehead and cheeks, wait until the product is dried (much quicker than the recommended 10-20 mins) then add a bit of warm water to exfoliate using circular motions. Not sure why the instructions did not suggest that neither.


Then apply the gold part onto your face. I'd definitely want my full face to get the benefits of hydration and firming so that's why I'd use them separately. Again, wash off the mask once it's dried and don't just wait 10-20 mins like the instruction said...you don't want it to dry out your skin. Rinse with warm water. On my first use I got clearer pores, smoother and 

firmer skin! Love it! tarte does not disappoint again!
