If your skin feels dull, tired, or lacks elasticity due to environmental stress, this infusion mask provides a rapid restorative boost.

• Core Actives: Retinol, Vitamin C, Vitamin E[cite: 1].
• Format: Single-use facial sheet mask[cite: 1].
• Best For: Dullness, uneven texture, and early signs of aging.

1) Cleanser — quick wash; clean base.

2) APLB Retinol Vitamin C Vitamin E Sheet Mask — apply to clean face for 15–20 minutes.

3) Sunscreen (AM) / Moisturiser (PM) — seal & protect.

Note: Already own a similar step? Finish that first (substitute, don’t stack).

Minimalist (3–4 steps): 1) Cleanser → 2) Hydrating Toner/Essence (optional; adds slip) → 3) Sunscreen SPF 30+

Note: Sheet masks containing retinol are generally recommended for evening use to prevent photosensitivity.

Wait times: 30–60s between watery layers; 1–2 min before SPF/makeup.

Minimalist (3 steps): 1) Cleanser (double-cleanse if makeup/water-resistant SPF: oil → water) → 2) APLB Retinol Vitamin C Vitamin E Sheet Mask → 3) Moisturiser/Oil (lock in hydration)

Optional: Use 1–3x per week as an intensive treatment step instead of your usual serum.

Texture rule: thinnest → thickest.

Daily Use — AM/PM:

• Amount: One sheet mask per session[cite: 1].
• Apply to: Clean, toned face; avoid immediate eye and lip contact.
• Method: Unfold, align with facial contours, smooth down gently, and leave on for 15 to 20 minutes. Pat remaining essence into the skin.
• Wait times: 1–2 min before applying moisturiser to lock in the active essence.
• Frequency: 1–3 times per week, preferably in the evening.

If-This / Then-That:

• Sensitive or new to retinol? Limit use to once a week and follow with a soothing barrier cream.
• Under makeup? Best used in the evening; if used in the morning, follow strictly with adequate sunscreen.

Watchouts: Pilling can occur if heavy creams are applied directly underneath; tingling may occur due to active vitamins—discontinue if persistent burning happens.

Safety: Avoid broken or actively irritated skin. Stop if burning rash occurs.

Example week (PM focus): Mon Soothing night · Tue APLB Retinol Vitamin C Vitamin E Sheet Mask · Wed Hydration night · Thu Soothing night · Fri APLB Retinol Vitamin C Vitamin E Sheet Mask · Sat Off or Recovery night · Sun Soothing night

Rules: One strong active category per night. Do not combine sheet masks containing retinol with separate strong exfoliating acids on the same night.

Mauritius note: In high heat and humidity, ensure you do not overload layers; the essence from the mask is often hydrating enough on its own before a light cream.

Safety: If irritation occurs, reduce frequency to once weekly and focus on barrier repair.

Immediate: Instant hydration plumpness, cooling relief, and an immediate post-mask radiance boost.

2–4 weeks: Smoother skin texture, more balanced tone, and reduced appearance of mild surface dullness.

8+ weeks: Enhanced overall skin firmness, clearer clarity, and improved vitality with consistent routine integration.

Retinol safety: Cosmetic-grade retinol sheet masks provide controlled, buffered delivery compared to harsh DIY treatments, minimizing irritation risks while supporting skin renewal.

Vitamin C stability: Sealed sheet mask packaging protects active vitamins from rapid oxidation compared to open-air DIY citrus mixtures.

Works with: Hydrating toners, ceramide-based moisturisers, gentle amino acid cleansers, and daily broad-spectrum sunscreens.

Use carefully: High-strength AHA/BHA chemical exfoliants, pure L-ascorbic acid serums, or other potent retinoids on the same night.

Avoid on: Broken skin, active eczema flares, or freshly waxed areas.

Suitable for: Normal, combination, dry, and balanced skin types seeking anti-aging and brightening support.

Use with caution: Highly sensitive or reactive skin types due to the active combination of retinol and vitamin C; patch test recommended.

Primary focus: Surface dullness, uneven skin tone, loss of elasticity, and early signs of fine lines.
