Does proactive refining mask work over night?

Answer 1

It doesn't "work" over night because it takes a few applications to make a huge change in the appearance and feel of your skin. You should use it two to three times a week all over your face. Put it on when your face is slightly wet and leave it on for ten or fifteen minutes, then rinse it off with warm water. I would say after about a week your pores would be clear. (If you use it too frequently all over your skin can become too dried out.)

On the other hand, if you use the refining mask as a spot-treatment (i.e. put it right on a blemish or zit particularly) over night I have usually found that the pimple is considerably smaller (dried-out) and less painful the next day. However it depends upon the type of blemish you want to use it on; for example, with zits and very swollen pimples that need to be drained, it is very effective, but for blackheads and whiteheads which contain no pus, using it as a full-face treatment is more beneficial but takes more time.
