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!!

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

This really keeps my lips hydrated and they feel nourished. Not sure I really see any plumping after a month of using but I'm over 70 and my lips may be beyond the point of no return :)

This worked so well on an irritated and dry spot on my neck that I decided to start using it on my cuticles, which are very rough and dry. I let it dry and then cover with an occlusive like jojoba oil. It’s been freakin’ magical. I also use your nail serum which I’m having great results with. I love that when I put it on my face, I feel absolutely no stinging or burning.
Hi Margie,
We’re so glad this found its way into your routine in a few different ways.
-`♡´- It’s always a good sign when skin that’s irritated or dry can settle in without any stinging or discomfort.
Also, it perfect that you trusted your instincts and paired it with a light occlusive for your cuticles… that kind of layering can make a real difference.
-`♡´- Thank you for sharing how you’re using it, and we’re really happy to hear the nail serum is working well for you too.
Markey, Jen and your whole team ❤️

I've read that green tea products enhance red light therapy. I apply this every time before my red light sessions. Thanks for another great and useful product!
Hey Margie,
Thank you for this feedback! I need to learn more about the red light therapy.
Keep us updated on how this is working out for you.
GO TEAM Green Tea,

I use this at night with a few drops of an oil and it’s the perfect level of moisture for my skin, even during winter. Heavy creams cause issue for me and this is perfect.

Amazingly enough
Amazingly enough... this stuff really seems to be making a difference for the skin under and around my eyes. I'm pleasantly surprised by this eye treatment. I especially love that it is all natural and no silicones, which my skin seems to immensely dislike. I have only been using for a short time but so far am very impressed. I definitely plan to order again!

Excellent
I’m so happy to have finally found a nail product that absorbs into the nail (and hopefully the nail bed) instead of sitting on top of it. I love that it needs no removal and that I can keep adding more without developing layers of it on top.
