    Description

    The moisturizing face mask is intended for dehydrated and gray, aging or irritated skin. Hyaluronic acid, due to its high biocompatibility with human skin, helps reduce wrinkles caused by premature aging, reduces skin irritations, promotes wound healing and moisturizes it [1]. Squalane is an occlusive molecule that strengthens the skin's barrier function and helps the skin maintain its own moisture level (hydration) by regulating sebum secretion [2]. Panthenol is an active ingredient that promotes epidermal regeneration and moisturizes the skin, promotes wound healing and is effective in contact and atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema or other skin irritations [3]. Hydroxyethylurea (urea) has better skin moisturizing properties than glycerol and therefore helps restore the skin's proper moisture level [4]. Shea butter or shea butter helps reduce the signs of aging and prevent photoaging due to its ability to stimulate collagen production (synthesis) and absorb UVB radiation [5, 6]. Using this mask regularly will make your skin supple, hydrated and glowing.

    Benefit:

    • Helps to restore the proper moisture level of the skin;
    • Improves skin elasticity and makes the skin soft and smooth;
    • Reduces damage caused by free radicals;
    • Improves overall skin texture;
    • Helps fight signs of aging;
    • Soothes and reduces skin irritations;
    • Suitable for use after professional acid and/or hardware treatments;
    • Suitable for all skin types.
    How to use

    We recommend using it in the morning, evening or as needed on a clean face. Spread a thin layer of the product (5-8 grams) evenly on the face and neck area and keep it for 15-20 minutes.

    To achieve the best result, we recommend using the product as the second step of the procedure after washing the facial skin. If your skin is extremely dry or damaged, we recommend toning your skin with Moon/Cosmetics moisturizing facial toner before the mask.

    Warnings: For external use only. Do not use if you are hypersensitive (allergic) to one of the ingredients. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children.

    Scientific validity

    1. Hyaluronic acid in the product, due to its high biocompatibility with human skin, helps reduce wrinkles caused by premature aging, reduces skin irritations, promotes wound healing and moisturizes it [1];
    2. Squalane is an occlusive molecule that strengthens the skin's barrier function and helps the skin maintain its own moisture level (hydration) by regulating sebum secretion, and human sebum contains as much as 13% squalene [7].
    3. In vitro experimental studies show that squalane is a very effective reactive oxygen species neutralizing agent. After oxidative stress, such as exposure to sunlight, squalane acts as an effective "trap" of such oxygen and prevents lipid peroxidation on the surface of human skin [8]. As a result, squalane is effective in reducing skin irritations caused by lipid peroxidation.
    4. In an ex vivo study, it was found that squalane increases the permeation of polyphenolic compounds, which are also strong antioxidants, through the skin [9].
    5. Panthenol is an active ingredient that promotes regeneration of the epidermis and moisturizes the skin, promotes wound healing and is effective in contact and atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema or other skin irritations [4]. Panthenol is well absorbed into the skin and turns into pantothenic acid through oxidation. Pantothenic acid is converted into acetyl coenzyme-A (Acetyl CoA) in epidermal cells, which is involved in many skin biochemical mechanisms and supports the cell cycle [10].
    6. The use of shea butter or shea butter in cosmetics began to grow strongly from 2011 and was widely used as an active ingredient in products intended for mature skin. Due to its high content of antioxidants, polyphenols and others, butter tree has UVB absorbing properties. In addition, shea butter promotes collagen production while inhibiting protease enzymes such as metalloprotease or serine protease [5, 6].
    7. Hydroxyethylurea is a derivative of urea that moisturizes the skin without leaving a sticky feeling and increases the penetration of other active substances into the deeper layers of the skin [4].
