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.

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!!

An exfoliating treat for your face!
This a gentle and effective exfoliating mask that leaves your skin feeling plump and moisturized. My face always feels smoother and detoxified afterward.
Hey there! Thank you for this review. This is by far my favorite mask and for the
same reasons you stated. It also smells so yummy from the pineapple. Yummy.

Banishes redness
Bought this for my husband to treat redness on his face. It's hard to get him to use products. Started with a sample. I worked, so he asked me to order more. He must really like it. Thanks Garden of Wisdom!

So far, so good!
To be honest, I use Serum as a Scalp Oil Treatment....I mixed it in with another scalp treatment that I do weekly....I'm very sensitive to everything, but far. so good....Thank you!

Best lotion ever!
This lotion is the best I’ve ever found! Sinks in beautifully, providing moisture to dry, cracked hands and itchy, flaky legs. After many years of searching for the perfect lotion, I’ve found the one! The aroma is subtly beautiful (sea of blue)- love everything about this product :). Thank you Garden of Wisdom!,

This Is THE Lotion
All the things skin is supposed to do, (like holding in hydration and moisture, shedding naturally, and remaining intact to provide a barrier against the elements) my skin doesn't. What it does do, is react to everything (including my own sweat) as an enemy, and block and inflame random pores as revenge upon me for trying to moisturize so the itching doesn't drive me to madness.
This lotion has been genuinely miraculous. At best, others help one problem but cause another. This one interrupts the cycle, and has actually made my skin healthier. To echo another review, please never stop making this.

Love it for my neck. Will try on my face at some point. I have Rosacea so I have to be careful with my face. Love Bakuchiol for the body too.

Winter Skin MUST HAVE
I love the other GOW hydrating mists but has not tried this one yet. My skin is on the struggle bus this Fall. Due to weather plus perimenopause I felt like I couldn’t get enough hydration no matter what! Purchased the 1oz size of this mist to try and it’s a game changer!! I just ordered the 4oz size during a sale. Never want to be without this during Fall and Winter.

Another WIN from Garden of Wisdom
I've never not loved Garden of Wisdom products 100%, and this is no exception... I alternate the C3 Elixir with other GoW products (the C3 does great on off-days that I don't use peptides), and it's been a great addition to my skin's arsenal. Some products can be drying or irritating to my skin but this isn't, at all!
I have to say... Markey and the entire team at Garden of Wisdom is a blessing. They do what they do out of a passion for helping people, and crafting high-quality, clean and safe products, at an affordable price - along with the utmost customer service (and I love the little hand-written notes I get with each order :)
Thank you, Markey, Leah, Jen, and the rest of your awesome team. xo

Hi Beverly 🙌
Thank you for the PPSO ~ Prickly Pear Seed Oil ~ review.
This is truly one of our favorites here and most definitely my favorite!
It's cute that you forgot your oil in the fridge! We have all done that numerous times. You can decant some into a
smaller bottle to keep on your bathroom counter. It will remain stable, just not be sweetly chilled.
Wishing you a happy, healthy, and beautiful skin in the new year. ⋆꙳•❅‧*₊⋆☃︎‧*❆₊⋆
