PM Routine Guide (evening order) (recommended for starting)
This mask is best used in the evening to help your skin repair and rehydrate overnight.
-
Minimalist Routine (3-4 steps):
- Cleanser: (Double-cleanse if wearing makeup/sunscreen: Oil β Water-based).
- Toner (Optional): Apply a hydrating toner to prep the skin.
- THIS MASK (1-3x a week): Apply for 10-20 minutes. After removing, pat in the excess essence.

Texture Rule: Apply watery products before the mask, and your final cream/oil after patting in the mask's essence.
How to Use (Beginner-friendly) (amount, frequency, and tips)
- Amount: One single-use sheet mask.
- Frequency: Use 1-3 times per week, or whenever your skin needs an extra boost of moisture.
-
Method:
- After cleansing and toning, carefully unfold the mask.
- Place it over your face, aligning with your eyes, nose, and mouth.

- Leave on for 10-20 minutes.

Weekly Planner (Example & Alternating Actives) (how to schedule use)
Integrate this nourishing mask on nights when you are not using strong exfoliants or retinoids to give your skin a soothing, hydrating break.
-
Example Week (PM Focus):
- Mon: Exfoliant (AHA/BHA) Night
- Tue: Soothing Night (THIS MASK + Moisturiser)
- Wed: Retinoid Night
- Thu: Soothing Night (Hydrating Serum + Moisturiser)
- Fri: Exfoliant (AHA/BHA) Night
- Sat: Soothing Night (THIS MASK + Moisturiser)
- Sun: Retinoid Night
Rule: Use this mask on "soothing" or "off" nights to replenish moisture and support your skin barrier, especially when using active ingredients on other days.
What to Expect (Results Timeline) (immediate β 8+ weeks)
- Immediately: Skin feels deeply hydrated, soothed, and looks visibly plumper and dewier. Dryness and tightness are instantly relieved.
- 2β4 Weeks (with 1-3x weekly use): Skin texture may appear smoother and more consistently radiant. The skin's moisture barrier feels more resilient.
- 4β8+ Weeks: With continued use alongside a consistent routine, skin maintains a healthier level of hydration and a natural, luminous glow.
Myth Replacement (Why this, not that) (safer, effective alternatives)
Why use THIS MASK, not just raw honey from the kitchen?
- Formulated for Skin: While raw honey has benefits, it's sticky, messy, and not formulated for optimal skin absorption. This mask delivers honey extract in a lightweight, non-sticky essence combined with other hydrators like Glycerin and Panthenol, ensuring the benefits penetrate the skin effectively and hygienically without the mess.
Compatibility Guide (layering) (what to pair it with)
- β Works Well With: Most skincare ingredients, including Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Ceramides, and Peptides. It's an excellent buffer to use on nights off from strong actives.
- β οΈ Use Carefully With: If you have a known allergy to honey, pollen, or bee products, perform a patch test before using this mask.
- β Avoid On: Do not apply over broken or irritated skin.
Skin Type Compatibility (best fits and cautions)
- Dry / Dehydrated: Excellent. Provides an intense dose of much-needed moisture and nourishment.
- Normal: Excellent. Perfect for maintaining hydration and boosting radiance.
- Combination: Very Good. Helps hydrate dry areas without feeling too heavy on oilier zones.
- Oily: Good. Can be used for a hydration boost, but may feel slightly rich for very oily types. Best used in the evening.
- Sensitive: Good, but patch testing is recommended due to natural extracts and fragrance. Honey is generally soothing, but allergies are possible.

Full Safety & Patch Test Protocol (important precautions)
For External Use Only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Discontinue use if signs of irritation or rash appear. While suitable for most, this product is intended for adult use. For teens, it is a gentle option, but skincare should be kept simple: cleanser, moisturiser, and SPF are the core essentials.
Patch Test Protocol:
- Apply a small amount of the essence from the packet to a clean, discreet area of skin, like behind the ear or on the jawline.
- Wait 24 hours to observe any signs of irritation, such as redness, itching, or swelling.
- If no reaction occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use. Re-check at 48 and 72 hours for any delayed sensitivity.
- If irritation occurs, rinse the area thoroughly and do not use the product.
Sensory & Chemical Profile (texture, feel, and formulation)
- Texture: A soft, thin cotton sheet mask soaked in a watery, slightly viscous essence.
- Finish: Leaves the skin feeling very hydrated, plump, and with a dewy, radiant finish. It can feel slightly tacky until the essence is fully absorbed.
- Scent: A pleasant, mild honey fragrance.
- pH: Not published by the brand, but essences of this type are typically formulated in the skin-friendly range of 5.0 - 6.5.
- FA Compatibility: Contains PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, which can be a potential trigger for Fungal Acne (Malassezia Folliculitis) in highly sensitive individuals. Individual responses vary, patch test advised.
Troubleshooting Guide (fix common issues) (quick solutions)
-
Issue: The mask is dripping with too much essence.
- Fix: Before opening, gently press the packet to distribute the essence. After opening and removing the mask, lightly squeeze it over the packet to remove excess liquid, which you can then apply to your neck and body.
-
Issue: My skin feels sticky after using the mask.
- Fix: This is common as the essence is rich in humectants. Gently pat the skin for an extra 30-60 seconds to aid absorption. If it still feels tacky, wait a few minutes before applying a light layer of moisturiser on top, which can help seal it in and reduce the sticky feel.
-
Issue: The mask doesn't fit my face perfectly.
- Fix: Sheet masks are one-size-fits-most. Don't worry about a perfect fit. Smooth it down as best you can. You can make small snips with clean scissors around the nose or chin area to help it lie flat.
Climate Fit for Mauritius (local usage advice)
- Humid Summer: Perfect as a cooling, hydrating treatment after a day in the sun. Store it in the fridge for an enhanced soothing effect. For oily skin, this could even serve as your moisturising step for the evening.
- Drier Winter/AC Exposure: An excellent way to combat the dehydration caused by drier air or constant air conditioning. It helps to replenish lost moisture and prevent flakiness. Follow up with a slightly richer cream at night to lock in the benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions (your questions, answered)
Can I reuse the sheet mask?
No, sheet masks are designed for single use only for hygiene reasons. Reusing a mask can introduce bacteria to your skin.
What do I do with the extra essence in the packet?
Don't let it go to waste! Apply the leftover essence to your neck, dΓ©colletage, arms, elbows, or any other area that needs a bit of hydration.
Is it okay for oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes, it can be beneficial for providing hydration, which can help balance oily skin. However, as it is very nourishing and contains fragrance, it's best used in the evening. If you have active breakouts, a mask with tea tree or cica might be a more targeted choice.
Do I need to wash my face after using the mask?
No, do not rinse. The essence is packed with beneficial ingredients. Gently pat the remaining product into your skin until it's absorbed to get the full benefits, then follow with your moisturiser.
