Ten out of ten on the fun scale alone, thanks to its aquamarine hue, Ole Henriksen Cold Plunge Pore Mask is the one to reach for when your skin needs a major refresh.
Containing excellent ingredients, including bentonite clay, salicylic acid, eucalyptus and avocado oil, this dramatically cools the skin, draws out impurities, exfoliates and reduces the appearance of pores.
As it sets, it becomes tighter and drier on the skin, leading to a smoother, more lifted, refreshed complexion upon removal.
