GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque is a creamy clay treatment that delivers 10% pharmaceutical-grade sulfur to reduce acne-causing bacteria, calm inflammation, and absorb excess oil without stripping the skin. This dual-clay formula combines bentonite and kaolin to detoxify congested pores while drawing out impurities that lead to breakouts. Grapefruit peel oil contributes a bright, fresh citrus scent that dissipates naturally as the mask dries.
Key Benefits
Targets acne-causing bacteria Sulfur at 10% works as both an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agent, reducing the bacteria responsible for active breakouts while calming redness at the surface.
Absorbs excess oil and mattifies Bentonite and kaolin clays draw out impurities and soak up surface sebum, leaving skin balanced rather than tight or stripped, with glycerin supporting moisture retention throughout.
Clears congestion and smooths texture Sulfur's keratolytic action lifts away dead skin cells and debris that clog pores, helping skin look and feel clearer with consistent use.
Detoxifies deep within pores Bentonite, derived from volcanic ash, pulls toxins from deep within pores while grapefruit peel oil supports the skin's natural renewal process.
Soothes rosacea-prone and reactive skin Sulfur's natural anti-inflammatory properties make this mask suitable for both acne and rosacea-prone skin, reducing flare-ups without aggravating sensitive or reactive complexions.
Ideal for oily, acne-prone, and combination skin types dealing with active breakouts, persistent congestion, or excess oil production. If your pores feel clogged regardless of how often you cleanse, or your skin turns shiny within hours of washing, this sulfur clay mask helps reset oil balance while clearing the bacteria that lead to new blemishes.
Also suited for rosacea-prone skin seeking a gentle, anti-inflammatory option that won't trigger flare-ups. The 10% sulfur concentration is effective yet calming enough for reactive complexions that can't tolerate stronger acne treatments.
If you've avoided clay masks in the past because they left your skin tight and uncomfortable, the glycerin in this formula helps preserve moisture while the clays do their work. It can be used as a full-face treatment or applied as a targeted spot treatment on individual blemishes.
For stubborn, deep blemishes, apply a thin layer of the mask directly to the breakout before bed and leave it on overnight as a spot treatment. The sulfur continues working while you sleep, helping to flatten and calm the blemish by morning.
Prepare: After cleansing and toning, apply an even layer to the face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
Technique: Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes. Gently massage with warm water, then remove with a clean facial sponge or soft cloth.
Apply: Follow with your usual toner, serum, and moisturizer. Apply SPF if using in the morning.
Frequency: Use 2 to 3 times per week as an all-over treatment, or apply nightly as a spot treatment on active breakouts.
Active Ingredients: Sulfur (10.0%) Inactive Ingredients: Aqua (Water), Bentonite, Caprylyl Glycol, Chlorphenesin, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Glycerin, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Kaolin, Phenoxyethanol, Propylene Glycol, Talc, Tetrasodium EDTA
Can I use GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque if I have rosacea?
Yes, sulfur is naturally anti-inflammatory, making GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque suitable for both acne and rosacea-prone skin. It helps calm flare-ups and reduce redness without the irritation that harsher acne treatments can cause. If your skin is highly reactive, start with a 5-minute application and increase the duration gradually as your skin adjusts.
How often should I use GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque?
Use it 2 to 3 times per week as an all-over treatment to control oil and prevent breakouts. You can also apply it nightly as a targeted spot treatment on active blemishes, leaving it on overnight to reduce bacteria and calm inflammation while you sleep.
Will GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque dry out my skin?
Not when used as directed. While bentonite and kaolin clays absorb excess oil, glycerin in the formula helps maintain moisture balance so skin feels mattified rather than stripped. If you have combination skin, you can apply the mask only to your oilier zones and avoid drier areas.
Does GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque have a strong sulfur smell?
Sulfur does carry a naturally mineral scent, but grapefruit peel oil in the formula provides a fresh citrus aroma that helps offset it. The scent dissipates as the mask dries and rinses away cleanly, so nothing lingers on your skin after use.
Can I use GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque with other acne treatments?
It can be incorporated into an acne-focused routine, but avoid using it on the same application as other strong actives such as benzoyl peroxide, retinoids, or exfoliating acids, as combining too many actives at once can cause irritation. Alternate days or use the mask as a standalone treatment step. If you're unsure how to layer it with your current routine, a free skincare consultation with one of our estheticians can help you build a plan.
Is GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque safe for sensitive skin?
The formula is designed to be effective without being unnecessarily harsh, and sulfur has a long history of use on reactive skin types. That said, if your skin is particularly sensitive, we recommend a patch test on a small area before applying it all over. Starting with a shorter application time of 5 minutes also gives your skin a chance to acclimate.
What makes GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque different from other clay masks?
Most clay masks focus solely on oil absorption. GlyMed Plus Mattifying Sulfur Masque combines the pore-detoxifying action of bentonite and kaolin with 10% pharmaceutical-grade sulfur, which actively targets acne-causing bacteria and helps clear dead skin cell buildup through its keratolytic properties. The addition of glycerin also keeps the formula from over-drying, which is a common issue with clay-only masks.

Works well
I use this for my cystic acne flare ups and it reduces the redness and soreness.
Seems like it can be a little drying / seen some breakouts following but overall like it for a once a week mask!
It’s a nice mask! The consistency is thinner than I expected it to be and also doubles as a spot treatment
I really like this mask! I have sensitive, combination oily acne-prone skin . This product is soothing and doesn’t cause any irritation, yet it is effective at clearing my breakouts. I use it as an all over mask as well as a spot treatment at night if needed. It helped dry up a couple pretty large pimples super quick!
