Should i exfoliate before using a mud mask?

every sunday i use a mud mask as it tightens up my pores n drys pimples out! i usually have a few spots here n there n visible pores.. do you reckon exfoliating before applying the mud mask will improve my skin? thanks ! :)





clear skin tips would be appreciated aswell!!Should i exfoliate before using a mud mask?
exfoliation of dead skin cells allow for the absorption of the mask. it also helps boost circulation of blood to the surface of the skin.

No you should exfoliate a differnt day, try the day before. Exfoliating before putting on a face mask will irritate your face, try to leave 24 hrs in between different beauty treatments, cleanse your face before you apply your mud mask, it will remove and surface dirt/left over make up and just day to day rubbish that way your mask will work more effectivly removing the problems underneath the surface!
No. I think if you exfoliate 3 times a week with a tea tree exfoliater it will keep blackheads and spots at bay!Also always take your make up of with a good cleaner and toner every night.And use your mud mask once a week like you are doing.You have to give your new skin routine a few weeks before you will see any improvement or if you have a reaction to it.Shop around and you don't have to spend a bomb on the stuff either like 5-10euro stuff is fairly good.
im an esthetician you should use a good cleanser depending on your skin type sounds like u may have combo skin. nutrogena is an excellent and affordable line. also you might be drying out your skin with that mask try every other sunday. you should be exfoliating no more than 3x week if ur skin is sensitive do it 2x's. also use a toner and a moisturizer especially after the mask. hope this helps!! :)
Absolutely!
