Product Description

WHAT IS IT?

This is your go-to skin saviour when blemishes strike. New Horizons Blemish-Clearing Face Mask is a freshly made, blue, clarifying mask designed to calm breakouts, balance sebum, and purify congested skin, all without the dryness.

Now with a piercer cap for easy, mess-free access.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

This powerhouse face mask dives deep to target breakouts at the source. Bamboo charcoal absorbs excess oil and impurities, while BHA salicylic acid gently exfoliates and unclogs pores, helping prevent new blemishes from forming.

Blue spirulina and plant-derived humectants work in harmony to reduce inflammation and restore hydration. Lime and rosemary essential oils add a fresh, clarifying touch, leaving skin feeling clean, calm, and under control.

Use the mask for targeted areas, apply all over the face, or even dab onto stubborn blemishes as a spot treatment overnight.

Better still, New Horizons is part of our money-saving Essential Collection: buy today and save £22.

Clinical Results

In an independent clinical study, users’ skin showed an average 60% reduction in excess sebum after one use.

Independent clinical study. Average results.

How To Use

Use the sharp point under the cap to pierce the seal.

Gently roll up the aluminium tube with your Waste Not Wand to get every last drop.

Apply the mask 1–3 times a week on congested areas, across the full face, or as an overnight treatment on individual blemishes.

Leave on for 20 minutes, then rinse with warm water.

Wipe the tube clean after each use and store in the fridge once opened for a refreshing, cooling effect.

Ingredients

Blue Spirulina

Both anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial, blue spirulina reduces redness and stops candida (a type of yeast) overgrowth, which can cause breakouts and bumpiness. It’s also responsible for the mask’s blue hue!

Willow Bark

Willow bark extract works with bamboo charcoal to control sebum production, helping to reduce blemishes while gently exfoliating, to leave skin looking and feeling refreshed.

Ginger Root Extract

Loaded with antioxidants, ginger root extract works to reduce blemish-causing bacteria and calm inflammation.

Why Jojoba Oil Is Your Skin's Best Friend

At the heart of our Smoothing Cleanser is jojoba oil: a golden, skin-loving liquid that closely mimics your skin's own natural oils. That means it deeply cleansers without disrupting your delicate moisture barrier. Rich in vitamins E and B-complex, jojoba oil gently melts away makeup, sunscreen, and daily build-up, while keeping your skin nourished and balanced. It's non-comedogenic (so it won't clog pores), making it ideal for all skin types, from dry and sensitive to oily and blemish-prone. We chose jojoba for its versatility and skin compatibility, but you'll stay for the silky-soft glow it leaves behind.

Can I use this on sensitive skin?

Yes, while it’s made to target blemishes, New Horizons Blemish-Clearing Mask is formulated to avoid harsh stripping. Always patch test first and start with shorter wear times if your skin is reactive.

Is this face mask suitable for teen or hormonal skin?

Absolutely. It’s ideal for teenage skin, oily skin, or hormonal breakouts thanks to the gentle yet effective mix of salicylic acid, charcoal, and hydrating botanicals.

Can I use this with other actives like retinol or AHAs?

Yes, but we recommend spacing out usage to avoid over-exfoliation. Use on alternate days if you’re using strong exfoliants or retinoids elsewhere in your routine.

Does the mask dry out your skin?

No - it’s carefully formulated with hydrating ingredients to balance oil and moisture. Your skin will feel soft and soothed, not tight or dry.

Can I use this face mask as an overnight spot treatment?

Yes! You can dab a small amount directly onto blemishes overnight – just ensure it’s fully dry before bed.

Q&A

What skin care should come before/after applying the mask? What time of day is best? What should I do before/after?: Hi Becky, thank you for getting in touch. Our New Horizons mask can be applied after cleansing in either morning or evening. We hope this helps!
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?: Hi Abbie, thank you for getting in touch with us. Due to the essential oils and salicylic acid within our New Horizons, this may be unsuitable for sensitive skin types. We hope this helps.
Is this the same as the ‘Clear Skin’ mask you used to do in a green pot? It has similar ingredients but is a different colour.: Hi Sbails, thank you for getting in touch with us. Yes, our New Horizons blemish fighting mask is the reformulated version of our Clear Skin. The formulation now includes increased blue spirulina and charcoal. We hope this helps.
Hi does this help with blackheads? Thank you: Hi Lindsay, thank you for getting in touch with us. Yes, this can help with blackheads as it contains salicylic acid buffering away dead skin cells, penetrating deeper into the pores to clear, exfoliate and promote cellular turnover, bringing clarity back into complexions by decongesting skin. Our Ocean Dive pore-clearing serum would also help as it minimises pore size. We hope this helps.
Has this replaced the original clear skin mask in the green pot?: Hi Laura, thank you for getting in touch with us. Yes, this is correct. Our New Horizons blemish-fighting mask was formerly known as Clear Skin. The formulation has been improved with increased blue spirulina and charcoal and it is now certified organic. We hope this helps.
