Commonly Asked Questions
How many applications in a bottle?
About 25. It really depends on how much you use. If you're just applying it to your face and not the neck or décolleté, you can get more face applications out of it. But don't neglect your neck!
How long is the shelf life of this mask?
The shelf life of the dry mask is around 2+ years when stored in a cool, dry place, away from moisture. Because it’s a dry formulation without water, it’s more stable and less prone to spoilage.
Will this mask help with acne or oily skin?
The clays in the mask help draw out impurities and absorb excess oil, making it beneficial for oily or acne-prone skin. The pumpkin powder also has anti-inflammatory properties that may help soothe breakouts.
Do I need a cleanser to wash it off?
No. Water will typically do for most skin types but it depends on how fair you are, the water you are using, and how dry your skin is. The dryer your skin is, the more the colors from the herbs may stick. So having your gentle, SBA cleanser on hand to wash off isn't a bad idea.
How often can I use this? Can I still use my Coffee Polish and other SBA clay masks?
1-2 times a week. Yes!! You should still use the other SBA products. Especially the polish since the ingredients in this product are very different and it is not a polish, but rather a mask.
Do I need the new silicone applicator brush to use the mask?
You don't NEED it, but it helps with a smoother and less messy application. Plus, since it's medical grade silicone and custom made specifically for all our masks, it'll last you a long time and you can use it with any of our clay masks.
Why does my skin turn slightly red after using this mask?
The slight redness can occur due to increased blood flow to the skin, which is normal and a sign of circulation. The warming spices help boost circulation, giving you a healthy glow. However, if the redness persists or feels uncomfortable, discontinue use. Spot testing is always a good idea before doing a full application if you are worried about sensitivity.
Will the herbs irritate my sensitive skin?
Many of these herbs are considered "warm" in the spice world - you really have to know how much to use and the right ratio to not cause irritation for most skin types. If someone's skin is dry - I highly recommend using our Sweet Dreams Glow Balm along with this as their normal routine.
The more irritated one's skin may already be from wind etc. the more sensitive it will be to products that have warmer herbs.
I am always hesitant to say it will work for EVERYONE's skin, bc everyone's skin and allergies are so different. Sometimes, a person doesn't even know their skin is allergic or reacts to an herb until they try it. Thankfully, we have an amazing return policy - so if any irritation occurs, you just reach out to us.
If you have other questions, do not hesitate to reach out!
