aspirin mask

I woke up this morning n felt pain when i open my mouth, i immediately thought "oh ow...." when i looked at the mirror, i can see new bumps on my chin, even when tretinoin is still on my face... the first thing tat came to my mind was 'what a big mistake eating those lomie yesterday'... after taking a bath i realized tat yesterday i tried aspirin mask...i do read tat one of the side effect is purging, so glad i only tried it on my chin, nose n area between my eyebrows..i looked above, glad only 1 new pimple...

okay, so now let's talk about aspirin mask..we all know aspirin is a pain killer, we saw ppl drink it in the movie the morning after a night of heavy drinking..but i never ever drink an aspirin in my life, i dun even have it in my house, quite surprising remembering how my parents always stock up on medicine..back on topic, i read about aspirin mask about 3 years ago, but at tat time i dun put much interest in it, mostly coz too lazy to go to e pharmacy n i dun need it back then.. ever since my breakout is back n i'm still on IB due to tretinoin, i wanted to know more about aspirin mask..i have mixed feelings bout this coz sum of e reviews on MUA are good, but e bad reviews, well...really really bad, sum even had chemical burns due to using e mask..

i was helping a friend practicing on a clinic when i realized they sell aspirin, checked e price, about Rp.5500,- for 8 tablets..i thought why not, it's not expensive after all..the one i bought is from Bayer, with  green n white packaging...since i only want to try it, i juz used 1 tablet, put it in a plastic zip bag, crush it, pour to my arm then add 2 droplets of water, mixed it until it got e texture of a mask then put it on my chin, nose n between my eyebrows..i left it on for 10mins then i rinse it off..while rinsing i do a circular motion so e beads also acts as a scrub..be sure to crush the tablet till it becomes tiny bity beads, or not it will hurt ur skin..

after rinsing, i could see my blackheads becoming white n larger, like it wants u too extract them..so i took my extraction needle, sterilized it then extract e blackheads...i never see anything like this before..when i use a scrub, deep cleansing mask, i still have difficulties for e blackheads on e centre of my nose, but with this mask, no problem at all..

i forgot to say tat aspirin is acetyl salicylate acid which is a BHA..AHA n BHA is used for acne treatment..in non medical speaking, it help to peels the skin thereso heals e acne faster n reduces e scar's color..but if use too much can cause the thin too be thin...

if u want to try this mask, better start at low dose n try it first on 1 area, dun use it on whole face coz like wat i had, new pimples the next morning..n also use this maximum twice a week, since it is harsh on ur skin..if u want to read more, can google it or juz go to MUA, it is listed under unlisted brand...
