| Nykaa Clay It Cool Daily Detox Clay Mask Review |
If there’s
only one skincare product that I’m allowed to splurge on for all of my life, then it has to be
a FACE MASK!! 😁 Nope, I’m not talking about sheet masks but the good old paste/powdered formulations that can provide more than one usage.
Recently when I was on the verge of running out of my face masks, I decided to restock my skincare stash because my skin tends
to behave abnormally if I get stressed out or it's those days of the month. After scrolling through a
catalogue full of face masks, I decided to settle for a relatively new product that I
haven’t tried before, i.e. Nykaa Clay It Cool Daily Detox Clay Mask. Nykaa
is a very well known e-commerce website that not only sells products of other brands but also introduces products in the market, which are made in their own
manufacturing unit. If you are wondering that picking this face mask was a bad decision or not, then you
have to stay hooked till the end. I’d suggest you grab some of your
favourite beverage, to begin with. 🍵
Oh, here you are. I’m glad that you’re back. Let’s begin, shall we? 😍😊
A couple of
months ago, Nykaa came out with their ‘Clay It Cool’ range of face masks.
Although clay masks are mostly associated with oily skin type, the brand
launched 7 product variants that cater to different skin types. These variants are Daily Detox, Spot-Corrector, Anti-Acne, Oil Control, Ageless Beauty, Perfect
Glow and Pore Perfect Clay Mask.

Product Packaging:
Nykaa Clay It Cool Detox Clay Mask is a newly launched clay mask for oily skin that comes in a sturdy,
black plastic tub that has most of the details printed on the label. The product
packaging unit has provided two lids to ensure that the product does not leak
during transit or storage. This is why it’s safe to travel with this mask
(but you gotta wait till travel restrictions are removed by the Government). #ConsequencesOfCOVID19 😐
Texture of the Product:
The face pack
has a thick, creamy texture that glides onto the skin smoothly. Therefore, I
don’t end up tugging my skin while applying the product.
My Skin Type & Concerns:
I have oily, acne
prone and sensitive skin that breaks out from bacteria or products that have a thick texture and provide intense hydration. I’m currently in the phase of treating my acne marks and dealing with fresh acne whenever they
emerge.

My Personal Experience:
As clogged
pores have always been my biggest concern, clay masks have become a necessity
for me. They assist me in detoxifying the skin and sucking out all the gunk so as
to prevent the emergence of new acne. At the moment, I’m switching between two
different clay masks, namely Innisfree
Super Volcanic Clay Mask 2X and Nykaa
Clay It Cool Detox Clay Mask. I think I do know which one of them I like the
most but I guess it would be wrong to compare the two because they both have
different prices.
Anyways, the Nykaa Clay
It Cool Detox Clay Mask spreads easily onto the face using both the finger and
a face mask brush. I like to leave it on for 15-20 minutes and wash it off with
tap water. To be honest, it does ruin the bathroom tiles but that happens
with most of the charcoal masks. I do like how it makes my skin soft, radiant and
oil-free! Also, I've recently started noticing that if I use this mask at the night time before applying acne treatment, my acne issues resolve faster. 😃 For example, one night I had a severe acne bump on the left side of my face. So, I used this mask and did my usual night time skincare. The redness, inflammation and the size of my acne reduced in the morning. To achieve such significant reduction in the size of the acne, it would actually take more than a single night for recovering if I would have just used the other regular things. In short, it is one of the best face masks for oily skin in India that makes the skin a clean canvas to work with! 😍
However, I don’t think I’m a big fan of its fragrance. I mean the fragrance
is sweet and fruity but I feel it’s slightly overwhelming for a mask. If you are sensitive
to strong fragrances then you would wanna skip on this. Otherwise, you can definitely try this one out! 😊
Pros:
- Easily available
- Travel-friendly packaging
- Spreads easily onto the skin
- Makes the skin radiant and oil-free
- Has amazing ingredients like Kaolin & Gotu Kola
Cons:
- Overwhelming fragrance
- The ingredient list has not been shared on Nykaa.
