Seven facial masks: AHA, gold, collagen, vitamin C and placenta, chosen for your skin
A mask is the finishing step of a treatment, holding actives on freshly exfoliated skin for 15–20 minutes. The clinic has seven formulas for the doctor or therapist to choose from according to your skin on the day, rather than one formula for everyone.
How a clinic mask differs from one at home
The main difference is not the mask itself but the sequence. At the clinic the mask is applied after exfoliation and vitamin infusion, so there is no thick stratum corneum in the way and more channels for actives to pass through. Every formula is a properly registered cosmetic product for external use, free of steroids and prohibited skin-bleaching agents, and before any acid-based formula is used, staff test your skin's sensitivity and adjust the time accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do gold masks really do anything?
Gold powder is an inert ingredient that temporarily brightens the skin and acts as a carrier for antioxidants. The main benefit comes from the other actives in the formula, such as HA. It suits preparing the skin before an event more than solving long-term concerns. Improvement in dark marks, lines or acne comes from the full treatment sequence together with home care, not from the mask alone.
Does the Whitening mask lighten the skin?
It brightens the skin by exfoliating dull surface cells. It does not change your natural skin colour, and it needs to be combined with consistent sun protection.
Can sensitive skin have a mask?
Yes, using the placenta or collagen formulas, which contain no acids or fragrance, with a patch test on a small area at your first visit.
Is it a good idea to mask at home every day?
Hydrating masks can be used 2–3 times a week. Acid-based masks should be used no more than once a week, and skipped on the day you have an exfoliating treatment at the clinic.
