Caudalie Instant Detox Mask is super fast and easy to use when your pores are feeling congested or when skin is flakey dry. Pink clay in particular is the most gentle of all clay types because it has a very light texture and absorbs excess oils without skin feeling stripped and irritated. I have tried many Caudalie skincare products and they have all been gentle and effective on my sensitive skin.
Formulated with Caudalie’s trademark grapes, provides antioxidant benefits for reducing oil production. Caffeine extract smooths away dead skin cells to reveal soft fresh skin. Who doesn’t want younger looking skin with a brighter complexion. I know I seriously want clear glowing skin.

If the packaging looks a bit different from before that’s because Caudalie has repackaged this in an updated sustainable tube. Same formula just new packaging. I like that the squeeze tube is easy to dispense product without having to dip into a jar with fingers or spatulas. Keeps the product clean and no product goes to waste.
I apply a nice thin layer to clean dry skin and let it sit for about 5 to 10 minutes. Sometimes I apply to entire face, just the T-zone, or spot treat specific areas. The texture is very creamy and light. Glides over skin without any tugging. Surprisingly, it is quick drying. As the product begins to dry down I notice some tightening.
After a warm water rinse my skin felt very soft and smooth. Pores feel deeply cleansed and dry patches around nose and mouth have washed away. Skin tone looks more even now that all the redness is gone. My face also feels much calmer and refreshed without the dryness. Ofcourse, I always follow up with the rest of my skincare routine to moisturize. Never skip applying moisturizer after using any type of mask is my rule.
It’s definitely worth a try if you are looking to start a clay masking routine. The pink clay mask is great for those with dry to angry skin. Perfect for those who want to reduce visible pores, reduce irritations related to acne, dull skin, improve elasticity, and exfoliate dry uneven skin texture.
