I've spent the last two years trying to combat acne all over my chin as a result of wearing a mask all day in retail. Never had bad acne before and was at my wits end, it was so painful and covering my lower face. I used a lot of other salicylic acid products as well as other active ingredients meant to help clear acne and nothing worked for so long. Doing this mask twice a week has completely cleared my chin and made the rest of my face feel so soft and healthy. Probably won't work for everyone obviously but I would really recommend trying. I'm always going to have this in my routine now.
I have tried many, MANY skincare products and hacks. I have a microcurrent device, an LED red light mask, serums, moisturisers and overnight masks, but this is still my absolute go-to when my skin looks tired and dull. This has probably been the longest-running staple of my skincare routine; the price point is great, and my skin feels so soft, smooth, and bright after I use this. Whenever I have an event to go to or I feel like my skin needs an extra bit of oomph, I reach for this.
I have bought this mask and although Iโm not a fan of face masks this works wonders, I have oily, blemished, combination skin and I find it really hard to find products that are good for my skin. A little bit itโs literally all you need. After using it the redness on my face was almost gone which is on of my main problems and I had clearer, smoother skin, smaller pores on my cheeks, even the pimples I had seemed to start going away. I really recommend this product although it is quite hard to get the mask out of the tube itโs worth the hustle. TIP when washing your face use cold water to close the pores
Oh Ordinary, what is this witchcraft?!? This mask is fabulous. Just used for the first time and my skin is transformed. Iโm a big fan of the AHA peeling solution mask which is great too but better for anti aging than unclogging pores and reducing spots and acne. With this mask you can really feel the magic working deep in your pores. I applied the mask not too thin (but not too much either) all over my face leaving for 10 minutes. Felt the grain in the mask was a bit unnecessary until washing it off where it felt like you were rinsing off a scrub which feels like an extra cleanse. I am obsessed with this skincare range and have very few bad reports on the majority of products Iโve tried.

I ordered this about 3 weeks ago and I finally opened today. I can't speak for the quality of the product as it's on my face right now LOL, but I am very disappointed with the amount of product I got. The tube was near empty when I got it and I could squeeze the bottle to the point where my fingers could touch (if that makes any sense). I also got the 100 ml moisturizer and I opened it up to see how much I needed to squeeze to get the product out, and I barely had to squeeze because it was very full, so I don't think I got 50mL of product. The weight of my salicylic acid mask tube was also significantly lighter in comparison (even for it being 50ml). That said, I ordered a bunch of stuff from the ordinary a couple of weeks ago and I'm very happy with the rest! :) DECIEM Response: We apologize for any confusion this may have caused. All of our products are filled/measured by weight/volume to ensure the product is correctly filled. The packaging does not accurately reflect the size of the fill, however, this is intentional as some air must be allowed at the top for the product to actually close.

This works perfectly with my sensitive skin with hormonal and stress break-outs. I use this as a spot treatment mask and my acne is noticeably less inflamed and smaller the next day. Plus, since I use this as a spot treatment, bottles go a long way!
I love this mask but it's out of the stock for such a long time! :(Why you even give discount on products that we cannot order? DECIEM Response: We're so happy to hear you're loving The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque. We're hoping for more stock soon! Please check back! โบ
I love this product! I try to use it 2-3 times a week. I have been using it for a month now and have noticed that my acne scarring is starting to fade. As soon as I start to wash the mask off I can already feel how soft and smooth my face is! This product has really helped the texture of my skin. I agree with everyone else when they wish it came in a larger size. This is a must have!
This is a fantastic mask. It goes on well dries nicely and washes off easily. Using twice a week is clearing up my hormonal acne well. Well done the ordinary another great product!
This masque has completely changed my skin. I have hormonal acne on my chin and after using this mask for two weeks, I have no hormonal acne on my chin for the first time in 8 years.I use the mask twice a week for 10 minutes. I also use it as a spot treatment in between uses if i feel a new pimple starting. I have never felt so good about my skin. I would HIGHLY recommend this product.
I have been checking the website out for some time to see if the salicylic acid solution was coming back. Since it didnt for a while now I decided to try this masque instead. I use it twice per week and I feel like a little of the product goes a long way. Especially if you spread it out a little faster, once it starts to dry its not moving anymore. I officially threw away all the other masks I had at home. Those tend to left my skin feeling irritated and red, and I felt like it did nothing for me or my acne.
So far I have been using the masque for twice a week. my skin is used to acids, but is dry and dehydrated from itself. My current regime has definately improved that so I do not know if it is my whole skincare regime that makes this masque work very well for me, or the masque on it's own, but I am happy with it. when putting it on it does burn a bit, but nothing I cannot handle for 10 minutes. it leaves the skin soft. My skin is slightly dry after use, but after my HA serum and a moisturizer, that is all taken care off. I have had no outbreaks during the last few weeks and it does not leave my skin red or irritated. it is nice to have a clay mask that doesn't leave my skin desert dry, and the BHA is a good plus. I think for some people it can be pretty agressive if you have not used acids before, but for me it is fine and leaves me clean and glowy.

I am continually blown away by the ordinary!! The texture of this masque when putting it on feels really expensive. I loved the results after just one time, there was no redness in my face at all after. My skin felt amazing and I had zero irritation. My skin just loves the ordinary and I am so glad I have tried it. Thank you so much!! DECIEM Response: We're so happy you're loving The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque.

I love this mask! On this site right now, to restock on it. Only con will be, it finishes too quick, so I wish there was more of it in the tube. I use it weekly and the next few days my skin looks fresher, rejuvenated and it gently dries up Acne and fades dark spots. I usually used the salicylic acid 2% to spot treat but realised it inflamed my acne first(Red and sore looking),then dries it out but not immediately and left me with dark spots after it healed which would sometimes peel off but was not ideal for me. So this Mask is a a much better way to use salicylic acid, and leaves the skin smooth and pores almost non existent. Would absolutely be repurchasing.
Me encanta pero por favor UN TAMAรO MรS GRANDE ( BIG SIZE) El producto es increรญble pero un tamaรฑo mรกs grande serรญa increรญble. Mi piel estรก super suave despuรฉs de usarlo y repetirรฉ ^^ DECIEM Response: We're so happy to hear that you are enjoying The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque.

I donโt have oily skin, so I use this once a week, sometimes every other week as a full mask. I use it more as a spot treatment masque for those stubborn hormonal pimples. It helps that out a little bit. Even though I donโt have oily skin, when I use this masque on my entire face, it does not feel dry and extra tight when I rinse it off after ten mins. I hope TO will consider a hydrating masque!
I have acne prone and oily skin. I use this mask twice a week and it helps with clearing the congestion on my nose and chin. I notice my skin is not as smooth if I do not use this mask at least once a week. It is not 100% acne prevention but it keeps my pores cleaner. I wonโt rebuy bc I see faster better results with leave on products. The consistency is like dried out toothpaste and you have to really squeeze it to get it out. The consistency is fine and has not separated on me. I do not recommend it for those with dry skin.
I LOVE this mask so far! The only sad part is that the bottle was half full & $12 then I read reviews and saw the reason why. I really wish it came fuller:( other wise works great for me right now
Absolutely I love this product, I have noticed improvements After only a few uses! I have sensitive skin and this has not irritated me at all, this will definitely be a staple in my skincare routine going forward! I canโt explain but my skin just looks renewed after using this exfoliater :) DECIEM Response: We are so glad you are enjoying The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque!

I have been using this mask for a month now, so I waited a while to write my review. For me personally, as a clay mask lover, it works for my clogged pores, black heads, any acne and ''dirt'' that accumulates throughout the day. It cleans in depth, leaves a smooth feeling afterwards and reacts nicely with my moisturizers. But do be careful babes, read the instructions carefully and don't get rebel with them like I did at first. If the mask says leave 10 minutes, don't forget it on your face for 20 - like i did - cos it will burn and leave a red lobster face behind. The ingredients seem quite strong and should proceed with caution. I strongly recommend it! DECIEM Response: We're so glad to hear that you are enjoying The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque. It is always recommended to use products as per label directions. As a general rule, be mindful with highly acidic products or treatment strength products. Thank you so much for the lovely review! โค
I was desperately looking for something new to decongest my pores and help stop my frequent breakouts on my cheeks. So I visited the Abnormal Beauty company where a sales person told me how he loved using this masque. Itโs been about 4weeks and I am in love. This masque goes deep and declogs my pores and prevent future breakouts from happening. I can literally feel the difference beneath my skin with less and less goblets of sebum pits. Itโs fast acting. My only wish is that I could use it more than twice a week lol. Itโs now a staple in my skin care routine with my other Ordinary products. This company and the products it makes is just AMAZING!!! DECIEM Response: Thank you for this feedback! We're so happy to hear you're enjoying everything.
I just used it today along with everything else I was recommended and I really Iiked it. -it was a thick creamy smooth texture when allying - on my skin (yours can react differently) it tingled at first (almost like it was going to start to burn) but then it cooled down after a few minutes. - once dried, it tightened on my skin (like all masks do) - after 10 min it came off easy and went back to a creamy smooth texture when I was washing it off. - once its all off my skin felt like I just splashed cold water on it so it feel refreshing for a little while (are supposed to wash off with warm water btw) and my nose especially felt less textured and soft. All and all the instructions were very straightforward and helpful on the back and itโs super easy to use after washing and drying my face.
I absolutely love this mask! I have large pores on my nose that no matter what I do have a constant buildup, this is the only product that has ever helped. This product has shrunk my pores more than any other products, no matter how expensive. I use this mask 2-3 times a week on my nose. I put it on a little thick, not too thick, but enough to peel it off after about 10 minutes drying time. I feel much more confident with the way it has helped my large pores become 1/3-1/4 of the size.
I've only been using it for 3 weeks and my skin looks so much brighter. One recommendation is to use good hydration after removing the mask.
I've had good results when I use this mask as directed I.e once a week. I beleive is has helped reduce the appearance of my acne scarring on my cheeks & jawline. It also leaves my skin feeling smooth and exfoliated but not overly so which I find to happen, particularly with physical exfoliant products. This is a skin friendlier option. Only thing is the smaller size runs out quite quickly, it would be cool to have a size even bigger than the big size haha
Love the texture of the mask and it helped reduce redness by the next day. However, the tube is half empty and Iโve only used it once on half my face (nose and forehead). A bit disappointed.

AMAZING! Highly recommend, skin felt so soft after
I love this product, but used in moderation of course (as reccomended from the ordinary). I think it's mixture of salicylic acid (chemical exfoliant) and kaolin (clay that dries up oils) is an amazing combination and leaves my skin feeling so smooth. I do have Oily-Sensitive skin though, so anyone who has my skin type should use with caution, and only for 5-7 mins first few times.
The only bad thing about this is that it doesnโt come in a bigger size. I need a bigger bottle! I love it so much. It stops breakouts in their tracks.
I bought this because the regular salicylic acid solution is getting reformulated. This mask is nothing like the other solution and isnโt really a replacement for it but I love it! I wish I could have both products. I use this 2-3 times a week and my skin looks incredibly clear after use.
It works great! I ran out of 50 ml four or five times, and I was hoping for 150 ml in bulk
My favourite skincare item iโve bought from The Ordinary. I was really surprised to see a difference in my skin from just the first use! I will definitely be repurchasing!
Iโve only used this mask once and I really like it. Itโs easy to take off and my skin felt amazing after and didnโt dry it out like most masks. I just wish I could use this every day! DECIEM Response: We're so happy you're loving The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque. Thank you for your review
I have used this three times in two weeks now, and really like it. It doesnโt have an immediate โwowzers,โ effect, but I have noticed that the stubborn blackheads on my nose area have all but disappeared. Iโll definitely be using it on a regular basis for the moment. DECIEM Response: We're so happy to hear that you are enjoying The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque. We recommend continued and regular use for best results. Thank you for your review!
I like the mask, does what you would expect it to do. I however wish that Deciem will make also a bigger version, like the Squalane cleanser, 50ml is not enough for regular use.
Be careful cause it really working! I wanted to find my glowing skin again, I have had terrible skin all summer, nothing worked and I felt like my pores were bigger than ever. On my first time using this mask I saw the gunk going out my pores after rinsing my face. Still after the mask I could see my skin getting cleaner. But careful cause I had a dry patch on my face I should have avoid this zone, Iโll know better next time. But I am really happy with the results. My skin looks so bright and healthier
I immediately noticed reduced redness. The next morning, my active pimples seem smaller and my pores seem cleaner. Sadly, when I opened it the first time, the plastic stopper was broken or broke. I got the larger bottle because I had a feeling I would like the product, but the product might just dry out before I finish it. Also, I agree with other reviewers that it is pretty difficulty to squeeze out the product.
I got this for Christmas and I have been using it for about a month and a half now. I use it about once a week and it has definitely improved the appearance of my clogged pores around the nose area. I usually extract the pores first then use it. I find that I donโt have to extract as often and there is significantly less oil/ clogged up gunk when I do. I am happy this mask has worked so well, this is the key to less clogged pores. My only complaint is barely any product comes out when you squeeze the bottle. I have to push so hard to get just a little out. Other than that, I am impressed.
Happy with this product, not harsh on skin, have seen a significant improvement after using it once weekly in skin blemishes and texture.
Use it 2x a week + salicylic acid serum daily for acne support. Is the extra support I needed! Does not irritate or burn at all and I have super sensitive skin. Only use on facial areas with most susceptibility to acne.
