The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results... just like the Salicylic Acid 2% Masque (50ml), expertly formulated to work wonders for congested and lacklustre skin.
An excellent companion for oily, blemish-prone skin types, the Salicylic Acid 2% Masque (50ml) is here to deliver a swift goodbye to unwelcome vi-zits.
Its namesake, salicylic acid, is the star of the show; a hardworking BHA that exfoliates away dead cells both on the skin's surface and within pores, revealing brighter and clearer skin beneath. This multi-talented ingredient also helps to reduce the look of blemishes, alongside helping to prevent future ones from forming. Given away by the mask's jet-black hue, the formula also contains charcoal which works alongside Amazonian clays to deeply cleanse the complexion of impurities and grime. Clearer, smoother, more radiant skin, here we come...
Aqua (Water), Kaolin, Squalane, Glycerin, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Silica Cetyl Silylate, Salicylic Acid, Sodium Polyacrylate, Pentylene Glycol, Charcoal Powder, 4-t-Butylcyclohexanol, Sclerotium Gum, Acacia Senegal Gum, Xanthan Gum, Phytic Acid, Polysorbate 20, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, Chlorphenesin, Phenoxyethanol.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Use once or twice a week after cleansing on dry skin. Apply evenly on your face, then leave for 10 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water. Do not use on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes both during application and rinse off.
Transparency lies at the heart of our philosophy which is why we have partnered with tech-platform – Provenance – to cut through the industry ‘noise’ and equip you with key facts that matter. A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).

Amazing charcoal mask, pores are shrinking
I love using this mask, I have quite sensitive skin so was a little nervous, but I took small steps and didn't leave it on for the full 10 mins the first couple of times. My skin feels great, pores are a lot smaller since using it and generally my skin is cleaner. I do use other ordinary products, but this is mask has really helped clear out my pores.

Fantastic
One of the best things I’ve ever purchased for my skin, it’s the first product I’ve used on my face in years where I can actually see a noticeable difference. So pleased and especially for the price it’s a fantastic buy.

not so sure...
I’ve suffered from hormonal acne for years which has recently got worse, so I had high hopes for this mask after reading reviews! The first time I used it my skin reacted pretty badly, with a strange, painful breakout (not like my usual ones) that just won’t go away and burns constantly. I thought this may have been an initial purge from first use, so tried another 3 times, I think my skin looks clearer, acne and hyperpigmentation reduced, hormonal acne seems to have reduced but I’m still struggling with the initial reaction/breakout 2 weeks later! don’t use any other harsh products whilst using this as I think this is what caused my reaction, stick to calming and non-drying ingredients, using my usual Inkey List salicylic acid cleanser with this is a no-go with this mask!

Give me all the salicylic acid!
I am a hardcore The Ordinary fan, I just LOVE their products. I have very sensitive, post-acne skin (although I still often suffer from hormonal adult acne) and salicylic acid has honestly changed my life. This masque is a lovely addition to use and I swear I see a difference even straight after I use it. I use about once a week so as not to dry out my skin.

Pretty good charcoal mask
This is a nice mask for calming down acne. I have quite sensitive and reactive skin and this hasn't caused any irritation at all. It's not groundbreaking, but pretty good considering the price tag. I would love to repurchase it, but it's forever sold out :D

If you have problem skin you need this
Honestly wondering why I didn’t invest in this product earlier. It’s really good and you can see a difference after the first use. Great for acne

Only mask i use
This mask is just the best. I made a mistake when first time using the mask. I exfoliated with enzyme peeling before the mask and i broke out a little bit (whitch was my fault). The nex time i used it, was without the peeling and it worked wonders. It leaves my skin feelig soft and it shrinks my acne imflamations.

need to repurchase
I loved this mask as an alternative to using liquid BHA's on the nights I would exfoliate. There was 0 irritation and it worked great on my oily-combination skin. I am going to repurchase as soon as it is back in stock

The best
A must for acne prone oily skin. Might take time to get adjusted to...can cause dryness and flakiness at first...but after 3-4 uses it will start showing results.
