While searching, I found a mask that steams your pores without needing to do it separately. So I bought it right away and tried it out. I only applied it to my nose and chin, and after about a minute, I felt a warm sensation. After about 5 minutes, I gently rolled it off and rinsed with lukewarm water, and the dead skin cells came off better than I expected! I think the advantage is that you can open your pores and exfoliate without going through a complicated process. It feels different from mud masks, so even after time passed, I didn't feel like my skin was tightening or hardening. Since it's a Skinfood product, I feel like I can trust the ingredients too :) It doesn't seem to be a widely known product, but I think it's worth trying if you're concerned about pores!
ConsSince it's an exfoliating mask with granules, it might irritate those with very thin skin layers or severe acne blemishes. And honestly, even though it's called a steam mask, you can't really confirm if it's actually opening your pores! It just feels warm, that's about it. When you look in the mirror after using this mask, it seems like it exfoliates, but you don't really feel like blackheads or whiteheads are being removed! Maybe because it's a steam mask, whiteheads do come out of the pores, but they don't fall off, so you might need to remove them separately with something like a cotton swab.
TipThey say that exfoliation with granules can be irritating on thin skin areas like under the eyes or cheeks. So I've been using this mask only on my T-zone and V-zone every 3 days, and it seems good!! When rolling, they say it's better not to do it too hard, but to do it gently with relaxed fingers. After exfoliating, I wipe off sebum with a black cotton swab, and it definitely helps with sebum removal :) For those concerned about pores or who produce a lot of sebum in their pores, I think it would be effective to open the pores with this mask, exfoliate, remove sebum with a cotton swab, and then use a soothing mask.

The ingredients are quite decent. It's amazing how it creates a warm sensation on the skin. It effectively opens up the pores and removes impurities without any issues.
ConsI used it twice a week, and the only downside I can think of is that the quantity is a bit small. Other than that, I don't have any particular complaints.

I can't compare it to Innisfree's Volcanic Mask as I haven't tried it, but being a 'hot steam pack' makes it seem more effective at clearing out impurities deep within the pores!! Best of all, it's not too harsh on the skin, which is great.
ConsHaven't used it long enough to find any major drawbacks. The salesperson claimed that because it's a hot steam pack, it helps remove impurities and expands then contracts pores. Whether that's believable or not is up to you...
TipApply for about 3-5 minutes, then gently massage and rinse off with water like you would with a cleansing foam. Unlike typical peel-off nose packs, this is a liquid formula, so it's actually less irritating. It contains small particles, so when you massage it off, you get the added benefit of exfoliation - two birds with one stone!
