When the solvent (water and alcohol) evaporates, the polymer chains link together to form a flexible film. This film adheres to the outermost layer of dead skin cells (stratum corneum) and impurities, lifting them away as it's peeled off.

Applying an occlusive mask over a retinoid can potentially increase its strength and lead to irritation, especially if your skin is not fully accustomed to the retinoid. If you are an experienced retinoid user, you may be able to apply this mask over it after waiting 20-30 minutes, but proceed with caution.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n      \u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.

A regular night cream is an emulsion of oil and water that absorbs into the skin without forming a separate layer.

One retailer (Sukoshi) showed an aggregate rating of 5.0 out of 5 from 2 reviews; one reviewer's comment, paraphrased, described the brush as something they had always felt they needed for their mask routine but hadn't gotten around to buying, and were glad to finally have. No dedicated Reddit thread or in-depth long-form review was found for this exact SKU this round. Common themes across what aggregated copy does describe: even spreading across facial contours and less product wasted into fingertips versus hand application.
