Hello again! Hope your all having a lovely day!? So today's post is all about the one and only GLAMGLOW|SUPERMUD clearing treatment. It's been raved and ranted about so much over social media the past few years but the question is, is it really something to rant about? The one thing that has made me want to post about this is the price, it is pretty expensive which makes it something not everyone is going to want to buy just to try out. I'm hoping this review can help anyone who is on the fence about buying it as well as people looking for a new face mask. So to find out more please keep reading :)
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
So here are some factors you should know before purchasing this product.
This particular treatment is targeted for those who suffer with common skin concerns such as spots, pimples, black & white heads, razor burns, in-grown hair, breakouts, problematic skin and more.
It's suitable for all skin types.
Acnecidic-6, Pore-matrix, Bio-life-cell-science & Teaoxi are the main things used in this mask which is what makes it so different from the rest. All information on these are listed in a leaflet in the box.
It can be used as a full mask or spot treatment.
It can be used by men or women.
It's 100% paraben free.
Before applying it as a mask, be sure to wash your face. Doing this will open your pores which will help the mask get deep into the skin to do it's work. When you've washed and patted your face dry with a clean towel then your all set for application. The mask is a clay mask so it is a dark grey/black colour, it has a lumpy kind of texture to it which will be from the ingredients used. So apply as you would a normal mask, I use my fingers and spread evenly all over my face being sure to stay away from my eye area. Once applied you will see areas turning a light grey colour, this is the clay setting and drying on the face (note not all the clay will turn light grey.) The areas that don't are the areas which the mask has drawn out all the bad stuff like excess oil, dirt and all that yuckiness. Leave on for 5-20 minutes then rinse off with warm water and dry your face with a clean towel. I always make sure I follow up with a moisturiser after applying the mask as the mask may leave the skin slightly dehydrated, I personally think this makes my face feel more refreshed.
When using as a spot treatment I use it before I go to bed. I do my normal night time routine of washing my face, then following up with toning and moisturising avoiding the problem area, I then apply the treatment to that area and leave on overnight. In the morning I rinse it off and continue following my morning routine.
My overall review on this product is definitely 10/10. The one thing I love about this mask is how you can feel it doing it's work, while waiting for it to set you can feel a tingling sensation all over your face and deep into your skin. I notice after using it there is a difference in my skins appearance and any problem areas. Now one thing I will say, never expect to wake up with a completely clear face the next day. Any spots, white heads, pimples etc that were above the skin will have popped if you like and will have reduced in size. Any under the skin will have come to the surface leaving you with the impression it has given you more spots. It's not the products fault! If you had a spot under the skin it will bring it to the surface so that it will go! This was a lesson I had to learn. It's not always the case everyone's skin is different it could very well leave you with the perfect skin the next day. Now the big question answered, is it worth the hype? YES!! I really do love it especially when I feel my skin hates me. It doesn't just leave your skin feeling beautiful the next day it continues to do so for days. I will be trying out the rest of the range at some point as I have no doubt I will be getting the same good results. In terms of price they sell from around £25-£50 depending on where your purchasing from, I will list some sites for you below:

CHEAPER ALTERNATIVE
Being aware the GLAMGLOW range is high in price I wanted to add on a cheaper alternative for those on a budget. These are the Montagne Jeaunesse range, they have a HUGE collection of masks at such an amazing price! They can be found at most beauty drugstores or supermarkets, I buy mine from my local boots store. They're normally sold on offers where you can get a selection for a certain price like 4 sachets for £3, otherwise they sell for around £1-£2 which is certainly a fantastic price! The sachets I have in the picture above are called Strawberry Souffle, Passion Peel Off, Apricot Scrub, Sauna Masque & Green Tea Peel Off.
I hope today's post was helpful, please leave your comments below. Thank you.
