Works for combination skin; other cleansing masks fit it better.

## Why this fit

- This mask offers moderate cleansing for your combination skin, with white and red Australian clays helping to decongest pores and absorb excess oil. Glycerin provides a humectant action, supporting hydration without compromising your skin type.
- While it offers general skincare benefits like hydration and cleansing, the primary ingredients are more supportive than directly targeting your oily shine.
- The formula is safe for your combination skin, as it lacks harsh ingredients and poses no risk of irritation.

## What the research says

- A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women. ([Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/))
- Twice-weekly use of a clay mask over 4 weeks in 75 adults with oily or combination skin improved acne-related outcomes, sebum content, skin evenness, hydration, and reduced dryness and irritation. ([Skin Research and Technology, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38009030/))
- Clay jojoba oil facial masks reduced total skin lesions by a mean of 54% after 6 weeks in 133 participants with acne-prone, lesioned skin and mild acne compared to baseline. ([Forschende Komplementarmedizin, 2012](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22585103/))

([Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/))
- Topical aloe vera gel significantly accelerated split-thickness skin graft donor-site healing compared to placebo in 12 patients, but showed no significant difference in pain relief. ([Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29649056/))

- The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532576/))
- Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant.

## Questions and answers

### How well does Asarai Earth Tones work for combination skin?

Asarai Earth Tones Face Mask works as an average fit for combination skin, offering moderate cleansing and hydration without causing irritation. While it supports your skin safely, a cleansing mask for this skin type needs potent oil-controlling ingredients like salicylic acid or zinc oxide to better manage oily shine alongside balancing hydration.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Which ingredients make this mask a good fit for combination skin?

Glycerin helps support hydration without disrupting your combination skin, while white and red Australian clays decongest pores and absorb excess oil. Combination skin of this type needs products with ingredients like salicylic acid and zinc oxide to effectively target oily shine.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What does Australian Red Clay do for combination skin?

Australian Red Clay helps balance combination skin by absorbing excess oil and reducing shine while keeping the skin hydrated. Using a clay mask regularly may also improve skin evenness and reduce irritation.
Sources: [Skin Research and Technology, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38009030/)

### What does Aloe Vera Leaf Juice do for combination skin?

Aloe vera leaf juice helps keep combination skin hydrated by increasing water content without making it oily. It also helps calm redness and supports skin recovery.
Sources: [Skin Research and Technology, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17026654/), [Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/)

### Where does this mask go in a skincare routine for combination skin?

This cleansing mask goes into the weekly routine for your combination skin, used after cleansing and an enzyme powder, and before a hydrating toner and moisturizer.

### Can I use it with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this cleansing mask in your weekly routine, but it is best not to apply it on the same nights you use retinol to avoid potential dryness. A mask for combination skin needs balancing ingredients like clay to absorb excess oil alongside gentle hydrators to keep the skin comfortable.

### How often should I use this mask?

You can use this cleansing mask once a week as part of your weekly routine, as suggested for this skin type. It is safe to use and is unlikely to cause irritation.

### Can it clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for combination skin?

This mask is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts on your combination skin because it features gentle clays and glycerin that clear pores and hydrate without irritation. To better target oily shine, this skin type needs a product with stronger oil-balancing ingredients.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Is this mask fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol. Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol, which soften the skin.
