Last month, i was contacted by SASA Malaysia to get my free samples of Natio Clay and Plant Face Mask Purifier after i signed up for their blogger guests review. So i went to SASA One Utama and to my surprise, i got 4 free samples! weehooo! I thought they would give only 1..so generous of them..
Being the "impatient" me, i tried the mask as soon as i got back home. While waiting for the mask to dry, i browsed and made some research on other people's review on this mask. Oh wow what i saw was unbelievable. Everybody loves this mask! I couldn't wait to find out how i would feel about the mask.
So here's what they look like...
Natio (pronounce as Nay-Tee-Oh) is an Australian beauty brand. Natio is Latin for "creation", "birth", "birthplace" and the ancient name for the Goddess of Nature. It symbolises the pure and natural, plant-based origins of Natio’s range.
Natio has evolved from an Australian family business that has been manufacturing skin care and cosmetics for national and international brands over four generations during the past 75 years.
Natio is one of the fastest growing beauty brands in Australian department stores and the top performing skincare and bridge make-up brand in Australian pharmacies. (Michael Edwards Cosmetics & Perfume Survey 2008).
So, what makes Natio unique? Why is it different to other skin care and cosmetic houses?
Natio is the easily accessible, plant based beauty care range specifically designed for a contemporary lifestyle.
Why is Natio accessible?
At Natio they believe that no one should compromise when it comes to skin care and cosmetics, so they have produced a quality beauty care system that everyone can afford. They ensure that customers pay primarily for the product and not for expensive promotions and packaging.

And here's what i think....
My verdict : When i first squeezed the mask out, i thought that it looked more watery that other "mud masks" that i used before. But when i applied it on my face, it didn't "run down" and wasn't as runny as it looked. It felt somewhat creamy but not too thick.
10-15 minutes later, the mask dried and hardened, and i could feel some tightening (in a good way, not drying) like other mud masks would do. But i realized that it dries faster compared to other masks i've tried before. It also gives that cooling effect on my skin..how refreshinggggg...A little goes a long way. Just apply a thin layer and wait for it to dry. Rinse with warm water.
I'm not sure how to describe the smell but it smells somewhat like medicated plant products, a bit like tea tree products but it smells nicer. Arghhhh i don't know how to describe it but i think the smell is great! Oh now i remember it smells like aromatherapy..but not sure what kind..hehehe..
My 1st try : Jan 2010
It's so easy to wash the mask off!! Not like other "mud masks" that need extra "sental" that can be so annoying..
After washing off the mask, my skin feels tightened and refreshed. I almost cried...
After my 1st try, I TOTALLY FELL IN LOVE... it's like love at first sight.. my skin felt smooth, refreshed, moisturized and it looked kinda glowy too. My hubby even complimented on my skin. He said " Your skin looks lighter".. Maybe he meant radiant...LOL...
My 4th try: Feb 2010
Ok so be prepared to see my face without makeup + my gigantic dark circles....

| No shower is needed..hihoooo |
 |
| Right after shower. No makeup no toner no moisturizer whatsoever. Just some lipbalm. |
After 4 times of trials, I notice that my complexion is getting so much better. The redness and scars around my face seem to lighten up and the big pores are much smaller now. I don't get breakouts after using this mask because this product is so natural, it's not harsh on the skin. I'm not sure if everyone would get the same result but you have to try it to believe it.
Trust me on this one.. i'm not exaggerating .. I only give my honest opinion to my dear followers.. If i hate certain products, i wouldn't even dare to mention them on my blog. Or even if i mentioned them, i wouldn't even dare to recommend them to others. This product is worth a try!!
If i'm not mistaken, a tube of this mask costs around rm37 or so for 100g of product. It's so AFFORDABLE!!!!!
Will i buy it again?
YEs yes yes and a hundred yeses!
I give this product 4.8 over 5 stars!
Get it now at SASA branches near you...
