So far so good...

Quick Take: refreshing, acne treatment, deep cleaning
I have only used this mask twice for 15 minutes each time and so far I really like it. It has a sulfur smell which is to be expected but also a hint of something minty which is nice. It tingles when you first apply which feels good right away. After using the masque my face feels cleaner and tighter without being dry or irritated. I have only used it before going to bed and any breakouts seem to look look less inflamed/smaller when I wake up. I have yet to use this as an overnight/spot treatment but I have a feeling that is it's best use per other reviews. I plan to use it overnight next time I have a nasty breakout and see what happens and report back! The only thing I'm not sure about is the pump dispenser. Other people has described it as handy and I know it probably keeps the product from drying out but I'm worried it will keep me from getting to the last bits stuck in the bottom, wasting some product. Also, if you use too much force on the pump it can make a small mess, nothing to worry about, just unexpected, so be gentle when you press down, not overly aggressive like me lol.

great overnight acne treatment
-02.09.13
I switched from another overnight sulfur acne treatment and I prefer this one. It's light, absorbs quickly, doesn't smell bad, and has a handy dispenser (the whole top pumps down - so your product stays sealed inside). I don't know if it's a miracle worker because I've had my hormonal acne under control for awhile, but it hasn't harmed my skin. I've only used it overnight. I like that it is a cruelty free product and that it doesn't contain some of the more well known harmful skin products. Lately I've been trying to get away from products with Parabens and Triethanolamine...I had to ditch a favorite daytime moisturizer :( but I think it's worth it in the long run if these ingredients really are carcinogenic. I think the pores in my forehead are smaller and it's probably due to this mask. I use a thin layer where needed, so I think it will last me awhile.

Quick Take: skin clearing, light smell, easy application
I have used this mask 3x and can see and feel a difference in my skin. I have tried overnight masks before and this one is my new favorite. Yes, the smell is not the best (um hello - it has the word "Sulfur" in the name) but its not terrible either. I really like the packaging too - it allows for super easy application.

Miracle worker!
-10.26.12
I was able to get a nice sized sample of this product about a month ago... since then my acne and any cystic acne I have had has improved tremendously! Anytime I have an issue, I go and put this cream on overnight and in the morning the pain, size and issue has subsided. It's a must have. Purchased full product today! :)

This product is ok. It did improve my skin a bit, but I wouldn't call it a miracle worker. But then again I've only been using this product for two weeks. Maybe with time it will clear my skin.

I like this mask
-10.19.12
I'm not wild about masks. I saw this on the Sephora website and thought I would give it a try. I like it. Have used it over night, not too drying, made my skin look nice the next morning, and does help with pimples, not sure about helping with blackheads (nothing seems to help with those). Will consider keeping this one on hand.

Fantastic
-10.18.12
Quick Take: awesome, non drying, gets rid of pimples
I have been a die-hard DDF Sulphur Mask fan for years and was surprised when it disappeared. Thank goodness Dr Dennis did his homework. This mask is fantastic, it works just as well with the added benefit of overnight use! Everyone who knows DDF, knows it was a little drying, but Dr Dennis is not drying at all.
New bathroom staple.

pretty good
-10.09.12
I bought this to add to my skin care regimen to give my skin a boost. You really can tell a difference after using it. I apply it to my problem areas and leave it on all night. In the morning my blemishes have gone down or are almost gone and it def helps with the redness. It's pricey but will last a long time. I use twice a week.

Quick Take: clarifying colloidal sulfur musk, dr dennis gross
I've been using Alpha& Beta peel for couple years now and it worked great for me , so I desided to try more products by Dr Dennis Gross and I got this musk. I have pretty difficult skin : Combination skin with oily Tzones , large pores some acne and if course blackheads ! This product is AMAZiNG !!! There's two ways u can use it put it on for 10 min or u can leave it on over night , 1st day I got it I left it over night and trust me I never do that with things I've never used !!! Woke up in the morning , at least 65% of my blackheads were GONE !!! OVER 1 NIGHT !!! My pores look much smaller !!! For the first time in my life when I put makeup on I couldn't believe how AMAZING My face looked ! I SWEAR I HAVE TRYED EVERYTHING or at least 90% of skin care products in Sephora ! This definatly WORTH IT ! If anyone has the same skin problems as I do you've got to try this musk or any other skin care products by this company !

Not a miracle worker
-09.25.12
I didnt think this mask did anything for my acne. I breakout in bumps on my cheeks and thought this would help to calm them down and reduce them but after three uses I still haven't seen even a slight difference. The only thing I like about it is that is makes my face feel clean without feeling overly dry, but for the $$ there are drugstore products that can do the same job.

amazing mask, strong sulfur smell
-09.14.12
Quick Take: skin=clearing, effective
this mask worked so well! i left it on overnight and had great results in the morning. however, when i rinsed my face and spplied moisturizer, the sulfur smell was still really strong. if youre worried about the smell, i would suggest leaving it on for ten minutes during the day instead of overnight.
