What is the main purpose of this mask?
It is a chemical exfoliating mask designed to resurface the skin by removing dead skin cells, clarifying pores, improving skin texture and tone, and providing hydration.
How often should I use this acid mask?
As it contains a high 25% acid concentration, it is intended for periodic use, not daily. It's best to start with once or twice a week, depending on your skin's tolerance, and follow the product's usage instructions.
Is this mask suitable for sensitive skin?
Due to its high acid concentration, it may be too strong for very sensitive skin. It contains soothing aloe and hyaluronic acid, but a patch test is recommended. Those with sensitive skin should consult a dermatologist before use.
What skin types is it best for?
It is formulated to benefit normal, combination and oily skin types, particularly those concerned with dullness, uneven texture, congestion and excess oil.
Do I need to use sunscreen after applying this?
Yes. AHAs can increase sun sensitivity. It is crucial to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day after using this product to protect your skin.
What is the difference between the AHA and PHA in this formula?
AHAs (10%) are typically stronger and work on the skin's surface for immediate exfoliation. PHAs (15%) are larger molecules that exfoliate more gently and also have hydrating properties. Together they provide multi-level resurfacing.
How should I apply the mask?
Apply a thin, even layer to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Leave on for the recommended time (check product instructions, typically 10-20 minutes), then rinse thoroughly with water. Follow with a moisturiser.
