Greek yogurt mask vs Clay pore mask

So what's the difference between a Greek yogurt mask and a clay pore mask?

This is the Greek yogurt mask.

Both masks felt tight after putting on for a few minutes. The picture isn't too clear but, both mask gave me similar results. My pores did feel tighter. However, my skin felt so much brighter after using the yogurt mask. The good thing about Greek yogurt mask is that it's simple and can easily be made at home. The down side is the smell. Clay pore mask smells relatively good and I could use my fingers to apply it. The downside for this mask is that I don't know what ingredients are used to make it. Either way I enjoyed using the masks. I think that sometimes it's good to use a natural mask because I already use many different products everyday and my skin needs a break.

Recently, I've been thinking about the many products that I use everyday and the chemicals in it. I suddenly wanted something that's more natural and I would know exactly what ingredients are in it. Since last year, I became a big fan of masks and also Greek yogurt. So I decided to make my own Greek yogurt mask. The ingredients that I used are plain Greek yogurt and honey. I mixed the honey with Greek yogurt and then used a brush to apply it on my face. The mask felt very cool and smells pretty strong. I could already feel the tightness of the mask after a few minutes. The first time I made the mask, I had it on my face for over 10minutes and my face felt very stiff. After a few tries, I decided that 10 minutes should be the time to wash the mask off. It's a very simple DIY mask!
