'I look much younger': This anti-aging facial mask has 73,000+ glowing reviews

There are thousands upon thousands of beauty products on Amazon, but only one Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay Mask. The popular powder, which is mixed with water or apple cider vinegar to create a luxurious DIY face mask, has been an Amazon top-seller for years. And you can grab a one-pound jar of the "world’s most popular facial" (as stated on the mask's label) to try for yourself right now for just $15.

The clay powder is a "centuries old" beauty secret that reportedly comes to us right from the Aztecs, cleaning deep down into the pores for tighter, healthier skin.

Aztec Secret’s newer "Version 2 Clay" utilizes the original beloved formula, which is made with all-natural calcium bentonite clay to detoxify skin, in its current revamped packaging. The mask is supremely easy to use — just mix the clay powder with equal parts apple cider vinegar (or water, though it does work best with the former). Stir into a smooth paste, then apply evenly to the face and let dry for 5-10 minutes for very sensitive skin or 15-20 minutes for normal skin. You'll start feeling the tightening sensation of the facial go to work almost immediately. When ready, just wash it right off. The brand recommends using the mask about once a week for normal skin and more often for targeting specific concerns.

The do-it-all beauty staple has over 73,000 glowing reviews and an impressive 4.6-star average rating to back up its effectiveness. From self-care facials to anti-aging treatments, fans of the multitasking mask swear by Aztec Secret for just about every skin concern.

For fading dark spots: "I heard sooo many great things about this product, and after using it for the past few months, I can confirm the magic is real," marveled a shopper. "I feel like it sheds dead skin and removes dark spots extremely well. I apply it to my face and neck biweekly and have started using it on other dark spots (knees and elbows) and I see a huge difference!"

For an anti-aging facial: "My skin looks 15 years younger and more. I had good skin before; now it’s great," raved a buyer. "At 69, I looked much younger and fresher at my 50th class reunion than the rest. I take pride in my skin."

For sensitive skin and keratosis pilaris: "I have extremely sensitive skin, and I'm allergic to basically everything, so I was very hesitant to try this product. I bought a plastic kit with measuring spoons and a bowl to mix the clay with as you should not use any type of metal (chemical reaction)," wrote a reviewer. "The clay works amazingly on my skin. It will bring pimples to the surface (purging) and shrinks pores, especially around my nose area. I use this about once a week. I have also applied the paste to the back of my thighs where I have mild keratosis pilaris, and it has greatly reduced the bumps."

For mature skin: "I had heard so much praise about this clay that I was very skeptical. But this stuff is great!" added a user. "When I rinsed it off, my 60+ face felt like baby skin... This is like a charcoal detox and a facial. I get as good a result from this once a week as the very costly micro-abrasion cream I had been using... I'm amazed that a product this affordable is so good."

For clogged pores: "I used this mask on all acne-prone areas and it definitely sucked out all of my clogged pores and evened out my skin texture really nicely, all while tightening the pores back up," noted a final fan, adding, "It stung quite a bit toward the end of the drying, and left very strong redness, but skin looked completely fine after a couple of hours!"

Add a little apple cider vinegar and voilà! You have a multitasking face mask, all ready to go.

These silicone "brushes" are easy to clean and fluid resistant, significantly reducing waste by making the most of every little bit of your product.

"I use masks pretty often, so these get used quite a bit and I love them," shared a fan. "They're of good quality, made of a super soft silicone and make it way easier and not nearly as messy as it usually is (face mask all over my fingers) to get my face mask on. One of the best benefits besides ease in my face care routine is that I find that I use way less of my products than I usually do if I had used my hands."
