10% off mask for smooth skin

Blue Lagoon Iceland Silica Mud Mask

06.02.12

Blue Lagoon Iceland Silica Mud Mask is pure white, which seemed surprising for a mud mask (although having honeymooned in Iceland I can tell you that mud and minerals come in very weird colors indeed). The mask comes in a tube and the white cream is easy to smooth over the skin. Blue Lagoon Iceland says silica (a key ingredient used in many of its products) helps the skin barrier. After leaving on for 10 minutes and rinsing off, my skin looked very clear and felt super soft. Given that the main ingredient is listed as “silica/silt (Blue Lagoon silica mud)” and there isn’t much else in this mask (apart from parabens, which I’ll come back to as there is some new research), it had better be good. A friend of a friend recommended that I seek out and try an Icelandic brand called Blue Lagoon Iceland that has an upmarket spa vibe and prices to match. After contacting the company, they sent us a generous batch of samples including the line’s signature Silica Mud Mask ($100).
