Garden of Wisdom's Uncork My Pores Cabernet Mask with Mandelic Acid 8% allows you to indulge your skin in the ultimate age-defying experience. Our Uncork My Pores Cabernet Mask, a powerful blend of nature’s most potent skincare ingredients. Infused with Cabernet Wine Extract, this mask is rich in resveratrol, a polyphenol known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps to combat environmental stressors, minimize signs of aging, and enhance skin radiance. Our formula is supercharged with Stabilized Oxygen, which stimulates collagen and elastin production, supporting skin’s natural renewal process. This oxygen infusion plumps fine lines, hydrates deeply, and promotes a youthful, healthy glow. Organic Aloe Vera Gel soothes irritation, promotes healing, and provides a cooling, calming effect while helping to inhibit the growth of unwanted bacteria. Mandelic Acid is a gentle yet effective exfoliant for those seeking a refined, smooth complexion, minimizing the appearance of pores, evening out skin tone, and fading hyperpigmentation. Meanwhile, Apple Pectin acts as a natural emulsifier and film-forming agent, ensuring a luxurious texture that locks in hydration and nutrients for a lasting glow.
Uncork the benefits of this antioxidant-rich mask and reveal a smoother, brighter, and more youthful complexion with every application!
Method of Application Apply a generous amount of this mask to your face and neck area (if desirable). Once dry, remove with a soft washcloth and tepid water.
Shelf Life and Storage Information for Our Products and Ingredients
Finished Products - generally don't need to be refrigerated as they are preserved, but you can refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. The shelf life for most products is 9-12 months. Vitamin C Serum(s) and VitaResurface products should continually be refrigerated to extend their shelf life. Sample Sizes - do have a shorter shelf life (generally 3-6 months), and items in jars can dry up quicker than this if the lid is not tightened well enough (Vitamin C Serums - use within 90 days).
Please Keep Your Products Out of Humidity, Heat, Direct Light and in a Dark Cabinet When Possible
Exfoliating Acid - products have a shelf life of 9-12 months. The only things we don't suggest refrigerating are the Mandelic Acid Serums or Salicylic Acid Serums, as they can crystallize in the refrigerator. If this happens, you can set the product into a hot water bath to see if the crystals will dissolve.
Additional Items That Require Refrigeration and/or Kept in the Dark
Hydrosols and Distillates - remove 1 ounce of hydrosol and add it to a separate, sterilized spray bottle and spritzer. Keep the larger bottle in the refrigerator. Carrier and Exotic Oils - generally refrigerate all carrier oils, although some very rich oils will solidify. This is fine. All you have to do is take the oil out, warm it up at room temperature, and it should liquefy. If not, set the bottle in a hot water bath and occasionally shake the bottle, which will hopefully turn into a liquid. Some oils, like coconut cream and jojoba oil, have a super long shelf life.
Refrigeration of The Following Ingredients is Not Necessary, But it Won't hurt
Essential Oils - essential oils are best stored in a cool, dark place. Co2 Extracts - these should continually be refrigerated. Butters - we suggest refrigerating our "skincare" butters. You can remove what you need and keep the rest in the fridge. Clays - keep in a dry, dark place. Shelf life is at least 2 years. Herbs All herbs <i>(whole or ground)</i> should be kept in a dark, cool, and dry location. Herbal (liquid) Extracts are created using grain alcohol. The alcohol pulls the constituents (properties) from each herb, root, trunk, leaf, and flower. They have a shelf life of 3-5 years. They can be stored in the refrigerator or a dark, dry place. Other Raw Ingredients - such as Sodium PCA, Honeyquat, Oat Beta Glucan, etc., will all have different shelf lives.
Shipping Transit Note: Some customers have asked whether products can be affected by time in transit, especially during warmer months. Our products are formulated and preserved to remain stable during normal shipping times and should not spoil simply from being in transit.
That said, if you are concerned about heat exposure, you are welcome to add an ice pack to your order for extra peace of mind. Click here to add an ice pack.

Uncork My Pores Cabernet Mask with Mandelic Acid 8%
I've used this on and off for years, and in the past few months have been using 2-3x per week. Whenever my skin is a little flaky or rough, 10 minutes of this mask makes me all silky and smooth. It also seems like it prepares my skin well for other products to sink in. I've gotten into a habit of a quick lukewarm water rinse in the morning (or a longer one if I've used retinol), then applying a layer of this for 20 minutes or so while I do household chores. I rinse it off in the shower and then continue my routine and it really seems to brighten and refine my skin. It's especially amazing for blocked pores or tiny blemishes - I feel like I can see an immediate difference after just a few minutes. Can't live without this one, can't live without GOW!!

I haven’t really noticed any changes but it hasn’t made my nails worse
Thank you for trying it and sharing your honest experience. We understand it’s disappointing when you haven’t noticed a change. In my own experience, it helped my nails, and my ridges became less noticeable too, though everyone’s results can be different. How long have you been using it? 💚 Markey

Wound Healing Oil
I have a scar that is a year old. After using a silicone scar cream for a whole year, it was still burning, itchy, raised and red. I started applying Wound Healing Oil twice a day. Within a few days, the itching and burning was under control. It's been 5 months now and the redness has subsided and the scar is starting to flatten. It's a slow process, but it's working.

Sweet & refreshing
I love misting this on my skin before applying lotion! It makes the lotion glide so smoothly and has such a pleasant smell.

Perfection in a jar
This stuff gives me the type of glow I thought could only be achieved at a day spa. It smells lovely and feels even better. It was slightly tingly the first 2-3 applications (not uncomfortable, just enough that you feel like it's really putting in work), and now it just feels immediately refreshing when applied. Great texture, too--sticky enough to stay put but not enough to feel immobilizing. I'm going to keep a jar of this in stock until they stop making it!

I use the Eyelash Peptide Serum on my lashes and brows
I use the Eyelash Peptide Serum on my lashes and brows. My lashes have grown in thicker and longer. I'm most impressed with the results on my brows! They are starting to regrow in spots that were bare for years.
