when I first apply this mask I didn\’t realize that you have to put such a thick layer but it just say that in the directions and I should have probably read the Box. I went on to apply this honey like texture I used a flat foundation brush to paint this on my face so I didn\’t waste any excess product I let it sit for about 10 minutes maybe 15 and then I rinsed it off gently massaging it off and it turned into this diamond powder scrub I know it does not have Diamond powder in it but that would be the feel of the exfoliant when your rinsing it off , the mask so refined that it feels not abrasive but very effective. all around I really love this mask I do wish they made the jar bigger because it won\’t last that long however I do think within my routine this would be a nice addition a couple times a month.
