SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Hydrating Mask

100% Genuine • Fragrance-Free • FA-Conditional* • Halal-Friendly* • Vegan-Friendly* • Wudu-Compatible*

*See the Allergens, Conscious Formulation, and Wudu sections below for exactly what each badge is based on.

If your skin is red, tight, or overheated after a day in Mauritius sun or an over-cleansing streak, this mask is designed to feel like relief within minutes rather than a slow-build treatment.

The Oily-Tight Paradox: if your T-zone looks shiny but your cheeks feel tight and papery, that combination is usually dehydrated-oily skin overproducing sebum to compensate for a lack of water, not genuinely oily skin. A pure water-and-Centella mask like this one addresses the dehydration directly, which over time can reduce the compensatory shine — reaching for an oil-stripping product instead usually makes the cycle worse.

Pros: instant cooling sensation from Corn Mint Oil; fragrance-free formula; suitable for most skin types including reactive skin; no rinsing required.

Caveats: single-use packaging means no way to check remaining product visually before opening; no brand-disclosed pH or active percentages; contains one FA-conditional emulsifier (see the Sensory and Chemical Profile section below); not for broken or actively inflamed skin.

In Mauritius heat, sweat and sebum on the skin's surface often get mistaken for dirt. Washing more than twice a day strips the acid mantle (target pH 4.5-5.5), and stripped skin responds by overproducing sebum — the exact oiliness the extra washing was meant to fix.

This mask does not interrupt that cycle by itself (it is not a cleanser), but it is a useful rescue step within it: a single Centella-and-HA-soaked sheet can rehydrate a stripped acid mantle after an over-cleansing episode faster than waiting for a standard moisturizer to work alone, buying the skin time to recover its own barrier.

On a genuinely low-energy night this mask qualifies as a legitimate minimum-viable routine on its own: apply, wait, pat in the essence, and sleep. There is no tacky residue heavy enough to discourage use — the finish is watery rather than gel-thick.

1. When: AM or PM, most often PM, 1-3 times per week.
2. How much: One full sheet plus all the essence left in the packet.
3. How: Unfold onto cleansed, dry skin, smooth out air bubbles, leave 10-20 minutes, then pat in the remaining essence and follow with a moisturizer.

Introduce this as the ONLY new product in your routine. Wait a full 14 days before adding anything else. This isolation window ensures you can identify whether any reaction is caused by this specific product.

1. Gentle cleanser (if needed)
2. Hydrating toner
3. SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Hydrating Mask (occasional AM use — great before a special event or after a rough night's sleep)
4. Lightweight serum (optional)
5. Moisturizer
6. Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++

In humid Mauritius mornings, the mask's hyaluronic acid layers draw ambient moisture from the air rather than pulling it from deeper skin, which is exactly why this mask performs noticeably better before 10am than mid-afternoon in an air-conditioned office.

1. Double cleanse (oil cleanser then water-based cleanser if wearing sunscreen/makeup)
2. Hydrating toner
3. SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Hydrating Mask — 10-20 minutes
4. Pat in remaining essence
5. Moisturizer to seal

On mask nights, this step effectively replaces a standard serum/ampoule — layering a separate hydration serum underneath is redundant, since the mask essence already delivers a concentrated dose of the same HA-family ingredients.

Technique: Pat/press the sheet down, do not rub — friction can dislodge the sheet's contact with skin and reduce essence absorption. Smooth from the center outward to remove air bubbles.

Required skin state: Clean and dry, applied after cleansing (and toner, if used).

Wait time: 10-20 minutes. Do not let the sheet dry out on the face — once it starts drying, it can begin pulling moisture back out of the skin instead of delivering it (a "reverse osmosis" effect).

Hands vs cotton pad: Hands deliver 100% of the leftover essence when patting it in; a cotton pad would absorb roughly 30-40% of it, so use clean fingertips for this step.

This is an encyclopedia map of all product types. You do not use all of these daily. You select modules based on your skin state.

Global rules: viscosity ladder runs thinnest to thickest, water-phase before oil-phase, treatments before seals. Wait-time defaults: watery layers 10-20s, serum layers 30-60s, 10-15 minutes before sunscreen if going outdoors. Amount defaults: watery toner/essence 5-8 drops per layer; serum/ampoule 2-3 drops or 1 pump; eye product ½ rice-grain per eye; gel moisturizer 1-1.5 peas, cream 1-2 peas; occlusive seal rice-grain to pea-size; sunscreen 2-finger rule for face. Hydrators like this mask work best on slightly damp skin; if the routine pills, stings, or feels heavy, reduce layers rather than adding more.

AM Maximum Stack

1. Rinse/gentle cleanse (optional)
2. pH-prep toner (optional)
3. Hydrating toner layers (optional)
4. Essence (optional)
5. Mist (optional)
6. Booster/soothing serum (optional)

Do not layer retinoids with AHA/BHA in the same night; keep "one lane" per night. This mask carries no active lane of its own, so it never competes for that slot.

One-lane rule: Retinoid OR Exfoliation OR Strong Vitamin C (LAA) OR Acne-control active per routine; barrier/hydration steps like this mask can always accompany any of those lanes. If unsure, default to the safest lane — barrier/hydration — and reduce layers.

Tier: Water-thin essence held in a hydrogel-type sheet — the thinnest tier in a routine, applied directly after cleansing/toning and before any serum or cream.

Layering rule: because the essence is watery and water-phase, anything applied afterward (moisturizer, then any oil-phase product) should go on top, never before.

Phase compatibility: water-phase. It layers cleanly under any oil-phase moisturizer or occlusive without pilling, since there is no film-forming polymer or silicone in the declared ingredient list.

Rest days: this mask has no active ingredients requiring recovery days, so there is no biological reason to space it out beyond convenience and packaging waste.

Overuse warning: using it daily will not damage the skin the way overusing an acid or retinoid would, but leaving it on past 20 minutes or letting it dry out on the face can pull moisture back out through reverse osmosis — more frequent use does not mean more benefit if each session is done incorrectly.

Before starting this mask, your routine does not need any specific foundation product in place — it is one of the gentlest formats in K-beauty and is commonly used as a first step into sheet masking.

• Acute dehydration/tightness: the multi-form HA complex draws and holds water at several depths of the epidermis simultaneously.
• Redness and irritation: Centella Asiatica and Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract are both traditionally used for their calming effect on visibly reactive skin.
• Overheated/sun-exposed skin: Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil delivers an immediate cooling sensation on contact.

This mask cannot: replace daily SPF, treat active acne lesions, fade existing hyperpigmentation, or repair a severely compromised barrier on its own — it is a hydration and comfort boost, not a corrective active treatment.

• ROUND LAB 1025 Dokdo Cleanser — a low-pH gentle cleanse that preps skin without stripping it before the mask. PM.
• SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Brightening Toner — preps and lightly hydrates skin immediately before the mask goes on. PM.
• SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Moisture Cream — seals the mask's essence into the skin so it doesn't evaporate overnight. PM.
• SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF50+ — protects the freshly plumped skin the morning after a PM mask session. AM.
• SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Cloudy Mist — a light refresh on non-mask days that reuses the same HA-family ingredients in a lower dose. AM or PM.

Pilling pairs: low pilling risk overall — the essence is watery, not silicone-based. If you do notice pilling, it is more likely coming from a heavy sunscreen or occlusive applied on top the next morning than from the mask itself.

Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which breaks down collagen, increases transepidermal water loss, and can trigger inflammatory breakouts and a compromised barrier. The visible redness and heat-flush that stress and Mauritius humidity both produce respond to the same calming mechanism this mask targets.

Using this mask as an occasional reset after a visibly stressful or overheated day is a reasonable use case — it addresses the surface symptoms (redness, dehydration, heat) even though it cannot lower cortisol itself.

Water-Permeable — after the leftover essence is patted in and absorbed, the finish is a watery, non-occlusive layer rather than a wax or silicone film, so water should reach the skin normally during wudu.

The sheet itself is removed before this stage; only the thin essence residue remains on skin, and it is not designed to be water-resistant the way a sunscreen or long-wear makeup product would be.

Adilsons provides this assessment based on the product's physical properties. Rulings on wudu validity vary between scholars. Consult your own trusted Islamic authority.

MYTH: "Leaving a sheet mask on longer, even overnight, gives better results." REALITY: Once the sheet starts drying out, it can pull moisture and essence back out of the skin through reverse osmosis, leaving skin drier than before the mask went on. Stick to the recommended 10-20 minutes.

MYTH: "The cooling sensation means the product contains alcohol." REALITY: Based on the declared ingredient list, no drying alcohol is present — the cooling comes from Mentha Arvensis (corn mint) leaf oil, a natural essential oil, not ethanol.

AC environment warning: in air-conditioned rooms, hyaluronic acid can draw moisture from your deeper skin layers instead of from the air. Always seal this mask's essence with a moisturizer when you'll be in AC for an extended period afterward.

Sugar cane burning season (July-November): PM2.5 rises during cane harvest burns. Since this mask is a rinse-free PM/indoor treatment rather than an outdoor-worn product, it is not a particulate-adhesion risk — but the moisturizer you seal it with should still be chosen with pollution exposure in mind if you commute at night.

Hard water note: Mauritius tap water hardness varies by region; a mineral film from hard water can leave skin feeling tight after cleansing. Following your PM cleanse with this mask before it dries can help offset that tightness before bed.

Hero Actives

*Concentrations for these ingredients are not publicly disclosed by the brand. Evidence grades reflect general ingredient-class literature, not a clinical study on this specific product.

Delivery System

There is no named or proprietary delivery technology beyond the brand's "Hyalu-Cica" marketing name. The general rationale for combining several hyaluronic-acid forms (Sodium Hyaluronate, its Crosspolymer, Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, and Hyaluronic Acid itself) is that lower-molecular-weight forms sit closer to the surface while higher-molecular-weight and crosslinked forms form a surface film — this is a general formulation principle, not a brand-confirmed mechanism for this exact product.

Full INCI List

Centella Asiatica Extract, Water, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycereth-26, Glycerin, 1,2-Hexanediol, Betaine, Butylene Glycol, Paeonia Suffruticosa Root Extract, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Glyceryl Caprylate, Carbomer, [--- Estimated 1% Line ---] Xanthan Gum, Arginine, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Dextrin, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Extract, Propanediol, Coptis Japonica Root Extract, Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans, Benzyl Glycol, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid, Raspberry Ketone, Disodium EDTA.

This list reflects the ingredient list currently documented for this product; it has not been independently cross-checked against INCIDecoder, CosDNA, or the brand's own site in this writing pass due to a tooling limitation, so treat the exact order and completeness as sourced-but-not-independently-re-verified rather than freshly confirmed. The 1% line placement above is a structural estimate based on ingredient order, not a disclosed brand figure.

Fairy Dusting Note

*The "5-layer Hyaluronic Acid complex" marketing name draws on several ingredients (Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Hydrolyzed Glycosaminoglycans, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid) that fall below the estimated 1% line, alongside the featured cooling Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil. Their position suggests trace-level inclusion; they likely contribute to the marketing story and mouthfeel more than to a measurable clinical effect at that position in the list.

Preservative System

1,2-Hexanediol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Glyceryl Caprylate, and Benzyl Glycol appear in the declared list — all multifunctional preservative-boosters/humectants rather than parabens or formaldehyde-releasers.

Fragrance status: Fragrance-Free — no "Parfum" or "Fragrance" entry appears in the declared INCI. The scent comes from Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil and botanical extracts.

Scent: A faint, fresh, minty-herbal note that dissipates within a few minutes of application.

Intensity: 2/5, dissipation under 5 minutes.

EU 26 allergen screen: none of the 26 EU-declarable fragrance allergens (Linalool, Limonene, Citral, Geraniol, Citronellol, Eugenol, Coumarin, Farnesol, etc.) appear as standalone entries in the declared list.

Alcohol disclosure: Alcohol-Free — no ethanol or denatured alcohol appears in the declared ingredient list.

This mask contains Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract — chamomile. Chamomile belongs to the Asteraceae/Compositae family, the same botanical family as ragweed, daisies, and marigolds.

If you have a diagnosed ragweed pollen allergy or a known Asteraceae/Compositae sensitivity, you carry an elevated cross-reactivity risk with this ingredient and should patch test carefully or consult an allergist before full-face use.

Halal: *Self-assessed by Adilsons based on available INCI data. No ethanol from fermentation, no porcine-derived ingredients, and no haram animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared ingredient list. This is NOT a formal Halal certification. Muslims with stricter requirements should consult their own scholars.

Vegan: SKIN1004 is listed on PETA's public Beauty Without Bunnies cruelty-free database, which also covers vegan status brand-wide, verified directly against the certifier's own published listing. *Self-assessed by Adilsons for this specific product's INCI as an additional check: no animal-derived ingredients detected in the declared list.

Cruelty-Free: SKIN1004 is listed on PETA's Beauty Without Bunnies database, which we verified directly against the certifier's own published listing — this is a real third-party certification, not a self-assessment. *SKIN1004 also sells through Tmall in mainland China, where post-market animal testing can legally apply to a brand's products; cross-border e-commerce sales may be exempt, but which channel applies to this specific Adilsons SKU has not been confirmed.

Microplastic-Free: Yes — no solid, insoluble synthetic polymer particles appear in the declared ingredient list. The Carbomer and Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer present are water-soluble/water-swellable gelling agents, not the restricted microbead type.

MFDS classification: General Cosmetic (not a Functional Cosmetic for wrinkle-improvement or brightening). This is a plausible read of the declared ingredient profile — it contains none of Korea's typical Functional-Cosmetic marker actives (Niacinamide, Adenosine, Retinol, Vitamin-C derivatives, Salicylic-acid derivatives) — but was not independently checked against the MFDS registry itself.

Clinical evidence: No product-specific clinical study citation was found for this exact mask. The soothing/hydrating rationale for Centella Asiatica and multi-molecular-weight Hyaluronic Acid is well-documented in general dermatology literature, but that is ingredient-class background, not a trial run on this formula.

Evidence confidence: Low. *Based on general ingredient-class literature rather than a product-specific clinical trial; treat brand claims of "instant cooling" and "deep hydration" as sensory/formulation claims, not medically studied outcomes for this SKU.

Fungal Acne Safety: FA-Conditional. Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate is a lauric-acid (C12) polyglyceryl ester, a fatty-acid chain length inside the range commonly cited by fungal-acne-safety trackers as Malassezia-feeding. Glyceryl Caprylate (a C8 ester) sits outside that range and is not flagged.

Assessment: Low. The essence is watery with no silicone or heavy film-former in the declared ingredient list, so it should not ball up under a moisturizer or sunscreen applied afterward.

Mitigation: if pilling does occur, it is more likely from a subsequent heavy sunscreen applied too soon — wait 60 seconds after patting in the essence before layering the next product.

The essence should be a clear-to-faintly-tinted watery liquid; a noticeably darkened, cloudy, or off-color essence, or a foil sachet that has ballooned or is leaking, are both signs to discard rather than use.

Storage: keep the sealed sachet away from direct heat and humidity — a bathroom cabinet exposed to hot shower steam daily is not ideal for long-term storage; a cool drawer is better.

Spoilage signs: off smell, discoloration, or a torn/leaking sachet seal. When in doubt, discard.

Patch test on the inner forearm for 24 hours, then behind the ear for another 24 hours, before your first full-face use.

If you have an adverse reaction: stop all actives. For 72 hours, use only a gentle cleanser, a plain moisturizer, and mineral SPF — no acids, retinoids, Vitamin C, exfoliants, or essential oils. After 72 hours, reintroduce one product per 14 days.

Emergency stop signals: hives, swelling, blistering, persistent burning, or breathing difficulty — seek emergency care immediately.

1. Leaving the sheet on until it dries out completely — this pulls moisture back out of the skin.
2. Skipping the moisturizer afterward, letting the essence evaporate instead of sealing it in.
3. Using it on broken, wounded, or actively eczematous skin.
4. Wasting the leftover essence in the packet instead of patting it onto the neck, chest, or hands.
5. Rubbing rather than pressing the sheet onto the face, which can dislodge full-face contact.

Overuse threshold: there is no hard biological ceiling since this mask has no active ingredients, but using it as a substitute for a proper daily moisturizer rather than an occasional boost wastes both the product and the routine's foundation.

Usage math: each 25ml sachet is designed for exactly one full-face application; there is no partial-use option since it is single-use packaging.

Lifespan: at a typical 1-3 uses per week, a multi-pack lasts roughly 3-10 weeks depending on how many sachets are purchased and how often it's used; using it daily instead of the recommended frequency simply depletes a multi-pack faster without adding proportional benefit.

Reorder timing: because each sachet is fully consumed per use, reordering is simply a matter of tracking how many sachets remain rather than watching for a gradually emptying bottle.

Evening Soothing Reset

Best for redness, tightness, or a stressful/overheated day. This product does the intensive hydration work; the surrounding steps prep and then seal it in.

1. ROUND LAB 1025 Dokdo Cleanser — cleanse without stripping.
2. SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Brightening Toner — 5-8 drops, wait 10-20s.
3. SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Hydrating Mask — 10-20 minutes, then pat in essence.
4. SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Moisture Cream — 1-1.5 peas, seal it in.

If your skin is barrier-compromised right now: skip the toner step and go straight from cleanser to mask — one less potentially irritating layer while the barrier recovers.

If you'll be in AC for hours afterward: don't skip the moisturizer step; unsealed HA essence in dry AC air draws moisture from your own skin instead of the air.

If you just came from the beach or direct sun: refrigerate the sachet for ~10 minutes first for extra cooling relief, and follow the next morning with SKIN1004 Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum SPF50+ to protect the freshly hydrated skin.

After purchasing, you will receive our skincare education email series covering this product in depth.

The recommendations above are based on formulation synergy with this mask, not on margin or stock levels. If a pairing does not exist in our catalog, we say so. If you already own a product that fills the same role, use what you have first.

This mask is the right pick if your main goal is instant cooling, calming, and lightweight hydration. If your priorities are different, consider these in-catalog alternatives:

• For pore care and oily/congested skin: SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Clarifying Mask — choose this if enlarged pores and excess sebum are the bigger concern than dehydration; it targets pore-clarifying rather than pure hydration.
• For a richer, creamier overnight treatment: Anua Heartleaf Cream Mask Night Solution — choose this if your skin is very dry or barrier-compromised and a thin watery essence isn't enough on its own.

Mindful use: if you already have an open hydrating sheet mask at home, finish it first before opening this one — there's no benefit to running two similar products at once.

This product's PRIMARY function is: an occasional intensive hydration and calming boost. You do NOT need this if you already own an unopened box of a similar Centella/HA hydrating sheet mask — finish that one first.

Stacking assessment: No Benefit if you already use a daily HA serum consistently and your skin isn't showing acute dehydration or redness; Significant Benefit if you have nothing addressing acute after-sun or over-cleansed redness right now.

Quick verification tips: the foil sachet's print should be sharp and matte, not blurry or glossy; the seal should be fully intact with no tears or resealing marks; you can cross-check the batch code at CheckFresh for a manufacture date consistent with recent stock.

Brand: SKIN1004 | Parent Company: Craver Corporation | Founded: 2016 | Headquarters: South Korea | Hero Ingredient: Madagascar Centella Asiatica.

SKIN1004 built its identity around sourcing Centella Asiatica from Madagascar as the shared base ingredient across most of its catalog, positioning itself as a gentle-but-effective option for sensitive and troubled skin. Whether the brand manufactures in-house or through contract manufacturers is not publicly confirmed.

Community reviews for this specific product were not yet available in our research at the time of writing — a genuine search of Reddit, Amazon, YesStyle, and Olive Young Global for this exact mask has not yet been completed. This is stated plainly rather than filled with invented quotes, in line with our commitment to not fabricate reviews.

Sustainability: the foil sachet is typically not recyclable in standard municipal streams. Using masks as targeted, occasional treatments rather than a daily habit keeps packaging waste proportionate to actual skin need.

Do I need to rinse my face after using this mask?

No. Pat the leftover essence into your skin until absorbed, then follow with a moisturizer — do not rinse.

Can I use this mask every day?

You can without causing harm since it contains no active ingredients, but 1-3 times a week is the recommended frequency and is more sustainable for a single-use product.

Is the cooling sensation from alcohol?

No. Based on the declared ingredient list, there is no ethanol or denatured alcohol present — the cooling comes from Mentha Arvensis (corn mint) leaf oil.

What should I do with the leftover essence in the packet?

Squeeze it out and apply it to your neck, chest, or hands rather than discarding it — it's the same essence that soaked the sheet.

Is this suitable for sunburned skin?

It can offer soothing relief for mild sun-warmed skin, but do not use it on blistered or broken sunburn — that level of damage needs medical attention, not a sheet mask.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA)

A humectant that binds water; different molecular weights sit at different depths of skin.

Humectant

An ingredient that draws and holds water, either from the air or from deeper skin layers.

Acid mantle

The skin's naturally slightly-acidic surface layer (pH 4.5-5.5) that helps keep out irritants and bacteria.

Fungal Acne (Malassezia folliculitis)

Breakouts caused by yeast overgrowth rather than bacteria, sometimes fed by certain fatty-acid-chain-length ingredients.

MFDS

South Korea's Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, which classifies cosmetics as General or Functional.

Reverse osmosis (in this context)

When a drying sheet mask starts pulling water back out of the skin instead of delivering it.

Cross-reactivity

When an allergy to one substance (e.g. ragweed) increases the odds of reacting to a related one (e.g. chamomile).

Store Policies: For the most up-to-date information, please review our Shipping Policy and Refund Policy.

Best for: anyone in Mauritius needing a fast rescue for overheated, tight, dehydrated, or mildly redness-prone skin — an occasional treatment rather than a daily habit.

Key benefits: instant cooling from natural corn mint oil; multi-form HA hydration; fragrance-free; low pilling risk; suitable for a wide range of skin types with a patch test.

Keep in mind: no disclosed pH or active percentages; single-use packaging contributes to waste; contains one FA-conditional emulsifier worth checking if you're managing fungal acne; chamomile content is a cross-reactivity consideration for ragweed-allergic users.

Assessment: Consult Oncologist. This mask is fragrance-free and retinoid-free with a minimal, non-parabens preservative system, which are generally favorable traits for treatment-sensitized skin — but it does contain a natural essential oil (Mentha Arvensis) and a botanical extract (Chamomilla Recutita), either of which can be more likely to cause reactions on skin sensitized by chemotherapy or radiation.

Consult your oncology care team before introducing any new skincare products during treatment.

Antioxidant pollution defense: Centella Asiatica and Chamomilla Recutita Flower Extract both carry some general antioxidant activity in the broader ingredient literature, though this mask is not marketed or dosed specifically as a pollution-defense product.

AC/humidity swing interaction: because this is a humectant-heavy formula, the vapor pressure gradient in a dry, air-conditioned room can pull the mask's hyaluronic acid to draw water from your own skin instead of the air — always seal with a moisturizer if you'll be in AC for a while after use, as noted in the Climate Fit section above.
