P.CALM Holy Basil Bubble Deep Mask — 90g carbonated clay-to-foam pore & blackhead cleansing, gentle PHA for sensitive skin

P.CALM Holy Basil Bubble Deep Mask is a carbonated clay-to-foam wash-off mask designed to lift blackheads, purify pores, and leave skin feeling refreshed without harsh irritation.

This Korean skincare mask begins as a creamy clay and effervesces into soft, oxygen-rich bubbles that help loosen impurities and excess sebum. Formulated with carbonated water, holy basil extract, and mild PHA exfoliants, it targets clogged pores while keeping sensitivity in mind. The formula is free from 20 known harmful additives and is clinically tested for measurable pore and blackhead improvement.

How does the clay-to-bubble texture work on clogged pores?

The product starts as a dense clay that adheres to the skin, then converts into light, carbonated foam that lifts debris from the surface and inside pores. The bubbling increases contact and gentle agitation, helping the PHA and holy basil penetrate and loosen blackheads. Rinse-off clears the lifted impurities and leaves skin smoother.

• Initial clay phase absorbs surface oil and binds to impurities
• Carbonation creates micro-bubbles to dislodge trapped sebum
• PHA provides mild chemical exfoliation without strong irritation
• Wash-off finishes with visibly cleaner-looking pores

Will this be gentle enough for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

P.CALM formulated this mask to prioritize tolerability: it excludes 20 known harmful ingredients and relies on naturally derived holy basil and low-irritant PHA. The carbonated action is mechanical and soft rather than abrasive, reducing the need for harsh scrubs. Still, patch-testing a small area is recommended for highly reactive skin.

• Free from common irritants and artificial additives
• PHA offers mild exfoliation compared with stronger acids
• Holy basil soothes while helping balance oil production
• Suitable for acne-prone skin when used as directed

How often should I use the Holy Basil Bubble Deep Mask?

Usage frequency depends on skin type and condition: once or twice weekly suits most people seeking deep pore refreshment. Oily or congested skin may benefit from two weekly uses, while sensitive or dry skin should start with once weekly. Monitor how your skin responds and adjust accordingly.

• Normal/oily skin: 1–2 times per week
• Sensitive/dry skin: start with once weekly
• Avoid daily use to prevent over-exfoliation
• Follow with moisturizer to restore barrier hydration

What results can I expect and what supports those claims?

The mask is clinically tested to show measurable improvements: pore cleanliness increased and blackheads and sebum were reduced in trial settings. Users commonly report smoother texture and a fresher complexion after rinsing. Individual results vary with skin type and consistency of use.

• Clinically tested for pore cleansing and reduced blackheads
• Leaves skin feeling smoother and less oily after use
• Works best combined with regular cleansing and hydration
• Visible changes depend on baseline congestion and routine

Who is this for: P.CALM Holy Basil Bubble Deep Mask is aimed at anyone wanting a gentle yet effective deep-clean pore treatment—especially those with oily, combination, or congested skin who prefer a non-abrasive option. It’s a good choice for people who enjoy at-home spa sensations, seek cleaner-looking pores without harsh ingredients, and want a formula compatible with sensitive or acne-prone skin when used as directed.
