My Doctor's Diagnosis: Analysis and Target

Visit Pore Remedy Purifying Mud Face Mask from Dr. Jart+ is primarily intended for combination to oily skin prone to enlarged pores, excess sebum, and blemishes. This mask aims to purify, tighten pores, and mattify the skin, while providing a soothing effect. The formula, rich in clays and soothing active ingredients, is particularly suitable for those looking for an effective solution against shine and blackheads, without damaging the skin barrier.

Formula Analysis: Key Assets

Three key ingredients stand out in this formula:

• Clays (Kaolin, Bentonite, Montmorillonite, Illite) These natural minerals absorb excess sebum, unclog pores, and promote clearer skin. Their mechanical action captures impurities and reduces shine.
• Gluconolactone This PHA (polyhydroxy acid) gently exfoliates, promotes cell renewal, and improves skin texture without irritating it, unlike some more aggressive AHAs.
• Copper Tripeptide-1 This copper peptide supports skin repair, stimulates collagen production, and offers an anti-inflammatory effect, ideal for soothing blemish-prone skin.

The presence of allantoin and panthenol completes the action by providing hydration and soothing, which limits the risk of irritation.

Tips and Application Ritual

I apply this mask once or twice a week to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. It is compatible with moisturizing and soothing skincare products (hyaluronic acid, ceramides), but I do not recommend combining it with other powerful exfoliants (AHAs, BHAs, retinoids) on the same day to avoid irritation.

My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion

This mask stands out for its purifying effectiveness and tolerance, thanks to the balance between absorbent clays and soothing active ingredients. Its creamy texture makes it easy to apply and rinse off. The only downside is the presence of fragrance and colorants, which may not be suitable for very sensitive skin. In conclusion, it is an excellent choice for refining skin texture and regulating sebum, while respecting the skin's balance.
