Details & care

What it is: An at-home charcoal mask that minimizes the appearance of pores while absorbing excess dirt, oil and debris trapped deep in your pores.

What it does: Japanese white charcoal and clay absorb the excess dirt, oil and debris. It deeply detoxifies your pores and helps to support a clear complexion.

How to use: Apply a thin, even layer over your entire face. It's also recommended for use on your neck and chest. Leave on until dry. The mask will become light grey when completely dry. Remove the mask with warm water and gentle circular motions. Pat dry and follow with the appropriate moisturizer in the morning or evening. Use once a week or as needed.

Buy from the manufacturer

I love this product but the one received from Nordstrom looked like it had been previously returned and most likely used. The inside of the cap had dried product on it. Reached out to PCA to ask if the cap should have had a seal and they informed me that it wouldn’t have a seal because it comes in a sealed box. This did not come in a box.

Perfect for maintaining

I have clogged pores and get periodical breakouts but this mask helps maintain a clear and clean complexion as well as speed up healing of blemishes.

I would buy this again.

I used this as part of my home peel process. My skin felt amazing and looked improved (aging issues) after one treatment.

Pore changing mask!

I use this product once a week I leave in for 15 minutes and the appearance of my pores are smaller and my face feels amzing. I love using this product especially if I worst case scenario do fall asleep with makeup on. **try to never do**

Great for my morning shower

I use this product twice a week during my morning shower routine. With my aging skin I find that the detoxify mask helps keep my pores clean and my skin soft.

I would buy this product again!

I use this mask in the evening, leave it on for a few minutes and rinse it off. I follow up with moisturizer bc it can be slightly drying for my skin. Leaves my skin fresh and clean .
