Formula & actives+
The Dynamic Ingredient Line-Up
The gentle champion of clays. It works like a microscopic magnet, lifting excess sebum, daily grime, and environmental pollutants from the pores while providing an ultra-mild manual exfoliation.
A potent brightening and cooling duo. Cucumber immediately lowers skin surface temperature and deflates puffiness. Licorice root extract targets dark spots and hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the enzyme that triggers excess melanin production, leaving you with an even, radiant complexion.
Rich in essential fatty acids, oleic acid, and vitamins A, D, and E. It replenishes lipids right back into the skin while the clay cleanses, ensuring the skin remains supple and soft.
The ultimate comforting agents. Allantoin accelerates skin healing and sloughs away dead skin cells. Betaine (a natural osmolyte) regulates water balance, locking hydration deeply into the tissue.
An extraordinary "extremophile" molecule that creates a "hydro-complex shield" around your skin cells. It stabilises cell membranes, prevents trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL), and blocks environmental stressors from triggering inflammatory responses.
How it works+
Step-by-Step: How the Mask Works on Your Skin
When you apply this mask, it goes through three distinct phases to transform your skin.
Step 1: The Active Damp Phase (Application & Absorption)
The moment the creamy mask touches your face, the active ingredients go to work. The water in the mask relaxes the top layer of dead skin cells, allowing Allantoin to soften them for easy removal. Simultaneously, Kaolin Clay begins to bind to the surface oils and debris. Instead of your skin drying out immediately, Ectoin and Betaine actively construct hydration shells around your healthy cells, pushing moisture downward into the tissue.
Step 2: The Semi-Dry Phase (Detoxification & Nutrition)
As the mask begins to set (but before it cracks), a thermal exchange occurs. The evaporation of moisture creates a distinct cooling sensation, amplified by the Cucumber. This constricts surface blood vessels, while the Licorice gets to work evening out your skin tone. At the same time, the Kaolin begins drawing out deeper impurities from the pores. Because the mask is infused with Avocado Oil, your skin absorbs vital lipids during this process, maintaining a healthy moisture barrier instead of turning red or tight.
Step 3: The Rinse Phase (Exfoliation & Shielding)
When you introduce warm water to rinse, the mask melts away effortlessly. As you massage it off, the micro-fine Kaolin particles gently roll away the softened, dead skin cells. The bound oils and pore-clogging debris are washed down the drain. However, Ectoin doesn't simply rinse away; its protective shield remains bound, leaving your skin plump, visibly bright, completely calm, and heavily defended against daily environmental damage.
How to use+
How to Get the Best Results

Do not let the clay mask fully crack or dry to a dusty chalk. Rinse it off while it still feels slightly tacky to the touch to keep your skin barrier perfectly intact.
Rinse with warm water and follow up with your favourite lightweight moisturiser to lock in the active benefits.
Use twice weekly before serums and moisturiser.
