Feeling like your skin is stressed, irritated, or overheated from the day? This simple sheet mask offers a quick, cooling hydration boost to bring comfort back to tired, sensitive, or oily skin.

• What it is: A disposable cotton sheet mask soaked in a hydrating essence featuring Green Tea extract.
• Who it's for: Ideal for oily, combination, acne-prone, and sensitive skin types looking for instant soothing and a touch of moisture without heaviness.
• What it does: Calms visible redness and irritation, provides lightweight hydration, and delivers antioxidants to protect the skin.
• Feels like: A cool, refreshing, watery essence on a soft cotton sheet.

1. Cleanser: Wash your face to create a clean base.
2. This Mask (PM): Apply the sheet mask to your face for 15-20 minutes, 1-3 times per week.
3. Moisturiser (PM): After removing the mask, pat in the remaining essence and, if needed, seal with a light moisturiser.

Note: Already own a soothing serum or essence? You can use this mask on days you want an extra boost of calming hydration, substituting it for your usual treatment step.

Sheet masks are best used in the evening to help your skin relax and repair overnight.

• Minimalist Routine (3 steps):
  1. Cleanser: Double-cleanse if you wore makeup or water-resistant sunscreen. Start with an oil cleanser, then follow with a water-based foam or gel cleanser.
  2. 3W Clinic Green Tea Mask: Apply the mask to your clean, dry face. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes.
  3. Moisturiser: After removing the mask, gently pat the leftover essence into your skin until absorbed. If your skin is dry or you sleep in air conditioning, follow with a light moisturiser to lock in the hydration.
• Texture Rule: This mask replaces your usual toner/essence/serum step on the nights you use it. Always apply products from thinnest to thickest consistency.

• Amount: One full sheet mask per session.
• Apply to: A clean, dry face. Carefully unfold the mask and align the cutouts with your eyes, nose, and mouth.
• Method: Smooth the mask down to ensure it makes good contact with your skin. Relax for 15-20 minutes. After removing, do not rinse! Gently pat the remaining essence into your face, neck, and even the backs of your hands.
• Frequency: Use 1 to 3 times per week, or whenever your skin feels particularly irritated, overheated, or dehydrated.

If-This / Then-That:

• Feeling extra sticky after? You might have used it for too long or your skin has absorbed all it can. Pat gently for another minute. If there's still a lot of residue, you can lightly tissue off the excess.
• Skin feels hot and irritated? Store the mask in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before use for an extra cooling and soothing effect. This is perfect for calming skin after sun exposure.
• Mask doesn't fit well? Use scissors to make small snips around the nose, chin, or sides to customize the fit to your unique face shape.

Safety: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if a rash or irritation occurs and persists. Keep out of reach of children.

This mask is a soothing treatment. Use it on nights when you want to calm your skin, especially if you are using strong actives on other days.

• Example Week (PM Focus):
  • Mon: Exfoliant (e.g., AHA/BHA toner)
  • Tue: Green Tea Mask Night (Focus on soothing & hydration)
  • Wed: Retinoid (if in your routine)
  • Thu: Soothing night (no strong actives)
  • Fri: Exfoliant (if using 2x/week)
  • Sat: Green Tea Mask Night (Calm and prep for the week)
  • Sun: Soothing night (no strong actives)

Rule: This mask is great for "off-nights" from strong actives like retinoids or high-concentration acids. It helps support your skin barrier and reduce any irritation caused by those treatments.

Mauritius Note: In our hot and humid climate, using a soothing, cooling mask like this can be a perfect way to end the day, helping to reduce heat-induced redness and calm skin stressed by sweat and sun.

• Immediately: Skin feels cooled, refreshed, and hydrated. Any immediate surface redness may appear visibly calmer and reduced.
• After 2-4 weeks (using 1-3 times per week): With regular use, you may notice your skin is less reactive and feels more balanced. If you are acne-prone, the anti-inflammatory properties can help breakouts appear less red and swollen.
• After 8+ weeks: Consistent use helps maintain a calmer, more comfortable complexion. The antioxidant benefits contribute to overall skin health, helping protect against environmental stressors that can lead to premature aging.

Myth: "When my skin is red and irritated, I need to scrub it or use a strong treatment to get rid of the problem."

Reality (Why this, not that): Irritation is a sign that your skin's protective barrier is compromised. Using harsh scrubs or strong, drying actives will only worsen the damage, leading to more redness, sensitivity, and potentially more breakouts. Instead of attacking irritated skin, soothe it. A calming green tea mask helps reduce inflammation, provides hydration, and gives your skin the gentle support it needs to repair itself. Choose soothing over stripping.

• ✅ Works Well With: This mask is compatible with almost any ingredient. It's an excellent buffer in a routine that includes potentially irritating actives.
  • Niacinamide: Pairs perfectly. Niacinamide helps with oil control and barrier support, while green tea soothes.
  • Hyaluronic Acid: A great combination for boosting hydration.
  • Vitamin C: Can be used in the same routine (e.g., Vitamin C serum in the AM, Green Tea mask in the PM).
  • Retinoids & Exfoliants (AHA/BHA): Use this mask on "off-nights" from these actives to calm any potential irritation and support your skin barrier.
• ⚠️ Use Carefully: The formula contains denatured alcohol, which can be drying for some, especially if used in a routine with other drying products. If you have very dry or sensitive skin, be sure to follow up with a good moisturizer.
• ❌ Avoid On: Do not apply to broken, wounded, or actively eczematous skin.

• Oily / Acne-Prone: Excellent. Green tea helps to soothe inflammation associated with breakouts, and the lightweight essence provides hydration without feeling greasy.
• Combination: Very suitable. It provides balanced hydration without making the T-zone oilier.
• Sensitive / Reactive: Good fit. Green tea is a well-known soothing ingredient that helps calm redness and irritation. A patch test is still recommended.
• Normal: A great option for a quick hydration and antioxidant boost.
• Dry: May not be hydrating enough on its own. While it provides a good layer of watery hydration, very dry skin types will need to follow up with a richer, more occlusive moisturizer to prevent moisture loss. The alcohol content might also be a concern for very dry skin.

• Redness & Irritation: Green tea's primary benefit is its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, making it ideal for calming down a flushed or stressed complexion.
• Dehydration: The water-based essence provides an immediate boost of hydration, helping to plump up fine lines caused by a lack of water in the skin.
• Environmental Stress: As a potent antioxidant, green tea helps protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals from UV exposure and pollution.
• Minor Breakouts: By soothing inflammation, this mask can help reduce the redness and swelling of occasional pimples.

Key Actives Explained:

• Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract): A powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredient. It's rich in polyphenols (like EGCG) that help protect the skin from environmental damage, soothe redness, and reduce irritation, making it excellent for sensitive or acne-prone skin.
• Allantoin: A gentle, effective soothing ingredient. It helps to calm irritated skin, supports the natural healing process, and has moisturizing properties.
• Sodium Hyaluronate: The salt form of Hyaluronic Acid, a powerful humectant that draws moisture from the air into the skin, providing hydration and a temporary plumping effect.

Preservative System: Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben.

Alcohol Clarifier: This product contains denatured alcohol, listed as the 4th ingredient. It is used to create a lightweight, quick-absorbing texture and can enhance the penetration of other ingredients. However, it can be drying for individuals with very dry or compromised skin barriers.

• Fragrance Status: Contains added fragrance ("Parfum" or "Fragrance").
• Scent Profile: The scent is typically described as a light, fresh, and slightly generic "green" or "clean" cosmetic fragrance. Intensity is mild to moderate (2/5).
• EU Allergens: The specific components of the fragrance are not disclosed by the brand, so a full check against the EU's 26 declarable allergens is not possible. Common fragrance allergens like Linalool, Limonene, or Geraniol may be present. A patch test is strongly advised for fragrance-sensitive individuals.

*EU allergen list cannot be fully verified without complete INCI; patch test advised.

• Who should use it: Most skin types, especially those dealing with oiliness, redness, or general irritation.
• Who should use with caution:
  • Extremely Dry or Barrier-Compromised Skin: The presence of alcohol can be potentially drying or stinging. Be sure to follow with a good moisturizer.
  • Fragrance-Sensitive Skin: This product contains added fragrance. A patch test is essential.
  • Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Generally considered safe for use. Contains standard cosmetic ingredients. If you have specific concerns, consult with your doctor.
• Patch Test Protocol: Before using on your full face, test for a reaction. Apply a small amount of the essence from the pouch to a discreet area, like behind your ear or on your inner jawline. Wait 24-48 hours. If you experience any burning, itching, or rash, do not use the mask.
• Teens: This is a gentle and suitable mask for teenagers, especially for soothing breakouts or managing oily skin. It's a good introductory treatment product for a basic cleanser-moisturizer-SPF routine.

• Texture & Finish: The sheet itself is a standard-thickness cotton material. The essence is a clear, watery, and slightly viscous liquid that absorbs relatively quickly, leaving a hydrated and fresh feeling on the skin. The finish is dewy and can feel slightly tacky until fully patted in.
• Scent: A light, fresh, clean fragrance.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand, but likely in the skin-neutral range of 5.5 - 6.5.
• Fungal Acne (Malassezia) Compatibility: This product contains PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, which may be a potential trigger for some individuals with fungal acne. Individual responses vary, so a patch test is recommended if you are prone to Malassezia folliculitis.

This mask is exceptionally well-suited for the Mauritian climate.

• Humid Summers: The lightweight, watery essence provides a burst of hydration without feeling heavy or greasy, making it perfect for hot, sticky days. Storing it in the fridge before use provides an intensely cooling and refreshing experience, ideal for calming skin after being outdoors.
• Drier Winters & Air-Conditioning: While hydrating, it might not be occlusive enough for dry winter days or for those who spend a lot of time in air-conditioned environments. During these times, make sure to layer a more substantial moisturizer over the remaining essence to lock in the benefits.
• Post-Beach/Sun Care: An excellent choice to soothe skin that has been exposed to the sun. The anti-inflammatory properties of green tea can help calm redness and take the "heat" out of the skin.

The claims for this product are primarily based on the established functions of its key ingredients.

• Ingredient Rationale: The benefits of Green Tea (Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract) are well-documented in dermatological literature. Its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, attributed to polyphenols like EGCG, are known to help soothe irritated skin, protect against environmental damage, and reduce redness.
• Ingredient Rationale: Allantoin is recognized by dermatologists and in scientific literature as a skin-soothing and protecting agent that promotes the healing process and provides a moisturizing effect.
• Brand Claim—No Public Dataset: 3W Clinic does not provide public clinical trial data for this specific mask sheet to quantify its effects.

• Size: 1 single-use sheet mask (approx. 23g).
• Cost-per-Use: The price of one mask is the cost for one single treatment session.
• Reorder Cadence: This depends on your usage frequency. If you plan to use it once a week, you would need about 4 masks per month. If using it three times a week, you would need about 12 masks per month. Consider purchasing multi-packs for better value if you plan on regular use.

However, consider these alternatives from our catalog if your needs are different:

• For More Intense Calming & Barrier Repair: Beauty of Joseon CENTELLA ASIATICA CALMING MASK 25ML — Choose this if your skin is highly sensitive or barrier-compromised. Why: It focuses heavily on Centella Asiatica, a powerhouse ingredient for repairing and deeply soothing irritated skin.
• For Blemish-Prone Skin: MISSHA AIRY FIT SHEET MASK [TEA TREE] — Choose this if you're dealing with active breakouts. Why: Tea Tree has natural antibacterial properties that can help calm pimples, making it more targeted for acne than the general soothing effect of green tea.
• For Soothing with Pore Care: SOME BY MI REAL SUPER MATCHA PORE CARE MASK 20G — Choose this if you have oily skin and are concerned about both redness and visible pores. Why: It combines matcha (a form of green tea) with ingredients aimed at clarifying and tightening the appearance of pores.
• For Brightening and Radiance: MISSHA AIRY FIT SHEET MASK [RICE] — Choose this if your main goal is tackling dullness and achieving a brighter complexion. Why: Rice extract is traditionally used to gently even out skin tone and impart a radiant glow.

Mindful Consumption: If you already have a soothing mask or serum at home that you enjoy and that works for your skin, we encourage you to finish it before purchasing a new one. This helps reduce waste and allows you to get a clear sense of what truly benefits your skin.

• Format: A single-use sheet mask sealed in a flat, foil-lined plastic pouch (23g).
• Applicator: The cotton sheet mask itself is the applicator.
• Hygiene & Stability: The single-use packaging ensures the essence remains hygienic and stable until the moment of use.
• Recycling (Mauritius): The foil-plastic pouch is generally not recyclable in local household recycling programs. Please dispose of it in the trash.
• Storage & Travel: The flat pouch is lightweight and easy to pack for travel. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For an extra cooling effect, you can store it in the refrigerator.

• Reddit, r/AsianBeauty (Caveat, 2024): A common point of criticism for the brand's masks in general is the fit. One user stated the fit can sometimes be "unbearable," but they use a silicone mask cover over it to keep it in place. Another commented, "Not the best fitting in the world, but not terrible."

At Adilsons, we are committed to bringing you the best of authentic Korean beauty. Our curation philosophy is rooted in Ṣidq (truth) and ʿAdl (fairness). We carefully select products based on their efficacy, safety, and value, ensuring every item we offer is one we believe in. We provide clear, honest information to help you make mindful choices for your skin. Our 100% authenticity guarantee means you can trust that every product is sourced directly from brands or their authorized distributors in South Korea. Your skin's health and your trust are our highest priorities.

1. Can I use this mask if I have acne?

Yes, this mask is a great option for acne-prone skin. Green tea is anti-inflammatory, which can help calm the redness and swelling associated with breakouts. It provides lightweight hydration that won't clog pores.

2. The ingredient list has alcohol. Is that bad?

This mask contains denatured alcohol, which helps the essence feel lightweight and absorb quickly. For oily and combination skin, this is usually not a problem. However, if your skin is very dry, sensitive, or has a compromised barrier, alcohol can sometimes be drying or cause a stinging sensation. We recommend patch testing and ensuring you follow up with a good moisturizer.

3. Can I reuse the sheet mask or the leftover essence?

You should never reuse the sheet mask itself, as this can introduce bacteria to your skin. However, it is highly recommended to use the leftover essence! After your 20-minute masking session, squeeze out any remaining essence from the pouch and the mask, and pat it onto your neck, chest, arms, and hands.

4. What's the difference between a "soothing" and a "hydrating" mask?

While there is overlap, a "soothing" mask's primary goal is to calm irritation and reduce redness using anti-inflammatory ingredients like green tea or centella. A "hydrating" mask's main goal is to deliver water to the skin using humectants like hyaluronic acid or glycerin. This mask does both, but its standout feature is its soothing capability.

• Best For: Individuals with oily, combination, or sensitive skin looking for an affordable, quick, and effective way to soothe redness and provide a light layer of hydration.
• Key Benefits:
  • Instantly cools and calms irritated skin.
  • Provides a refreshing boost of watery hydration without greasiness.
  • Excellent as a post-sun or post-active treatment to reduce inflammation.
• Keep in Mind:
  • Contains denatured alcohol and added fragrance, which may not be suitable for extremely sensitive or dry skin types.
  • The fit of the mask may not be perfect for all face shapes.
  • Provides light hydration; very dry skin will require a separate, richer moisturizer.

• Coverage: Island-wide delivery (Mauritius).
• Processing & Timing: Orders process in 1–2 business days. Delivery typically takes 1–5 business days after partner collection.
• Express: May be available by region; request on WhatsApp: +230 5 778 2336.
• Pickup: Citadelle Mall pickup available.
• Returns: No change-of-mind exchanges. Opened skincare items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery.
• Refunds (Summary): For items defective/damaged on receipt (report within 48h), wrong item, or manufacturing defect within 6 months.
• Source of Truth: This is a quick snapshot. If anything differs, the policy pages are final.
