You know those nights when you just want to unwind with a face mask and scroll through Pinterest? That’s what my buddy Max and I love to do. It’s our little ritual to relax and bond. However, the other evening, my 14-year-old daughter decided to join in, and let me tell you, it was a disaster. She absolutely freaked out as the mask tightened on her face, bolting upstairs and declaring, “My face is on fire! Why do you do this to yourself?!”
Kudos to the YouTuber, Bella J, who perfectly captures this hilarious struggle in her video “5 Stages of Wearing a Clay Mask”. Honestly, it’s so relatable.
We all have those days when being an adult feels like way too much, and everything seems to go wrong. Bella kicks off her video venting about life’s frustrations, saying, “All my bills came today. Seriously, why does everything cost money? I have to pay just to take a bath?” Her exasperation is palpable, and we’ve all been there.
But when we reach for that clay mask, we’re really hoping for some instant relief from the chaos. Sure, I might be broke, but hey, at least my pores could look smaller, right? As Bella puts it, “I can’t face the world, but you know what I can do? A face mask that promises to fix my life.” Heck yes!
With a blue clay mask slathered all over her face, she confidently declares, “I am a strong, fierce woman, and I have my life together.” We’re right there with her, feeling empowered. But just wait—it starts to get real. The mask tightens, begins to burn, and suddenly we feel like we need to dunk our heads in a bath filled with cucumbers and aloe. But we convince ourselves, “If it’s burning, it must be working.” Classic.
Bella passionately shouts, “That’s cleansing my pores!” until it becomes unbearable, and she has to wash it off in a hurry. Then comes the classic line we all tell ourselves: “Beauty is pain!” As the discomfort mounts, she swears she’ll “never do this again” and tosses the clay tube in the trash. I’ve made that promise every time I put one of those things on, feeling like my face is stiffer than an old sock stuffed under a teenager’s bed.
Honestly, I’m not sure we’re doing this right. My skincare-obsessed friend says I should be misting my face to prevent it from drying out, but meh—beauty is pain, right? Bella wraps up her video with, “I am young and supple! Here I come, world!” We’ve all been there—feeling like a whole new version of ourselves after a mask reveals a brighter, firmer, or at least redder, complexion. That’s why we keep slathering it on every time life gets tough. If we’re riding the struggle bus, we want to be the one with the most dewy skin.
