Function
-
Before you apply a mud mask, it's essential that you first wash your skin with a cleanser. Then you can apply the mud mask all over your face and even neck. You should wait for the mud mask to completely dry. This should usually take between 10 and 15 minutes. After the mask has dried, rinse it off gently with warm water and a wash cloth. Make sure to moisturize your face afterward.

Theories/Speculation

Mud masks work great on any type of skin, but they are especially useful for people who have oily or acne-prone skin. Mud masks reduce the bad effects of oily skin by helping the face eliminate excess facial oils. Excess facial oils are very often the cause of skin issues such as clogged pores, acne and blemishes.
