Why you'll love it
Ten masks, enough for a mask twice a week for over a month
Skin looks brighter and feels plumped after a single fifteen-minute treatment
Ascorbyl Glucoside brightens the look of dullness without stinging
The sheet format holds the serum against the skin with no evaporation
No mess, no rinsing, and nothing to wash off afterwards
Individually sealed, so each mask is fresh and travels easily
What it is
A pack of ten single-use brightening sheet masks - and the format does something a cream mask cannot.
A sheet mask works by occlusion. The fabric holds a generous dose of serum against the skin for fifteen minutes with no evaporation and nothing rubbing off, which means far more of the formula reaches the skin than from the same serum applied by hand. That is why the plumping effect is visible immediately rather than after weeks.
Ascorbyl Glucoside is the brightening active, a stable glucose-bound form of Vitamin C that does not sting. Glycerin, Butylene Glycol and 1,2-Hexanediol carry the hydration, and the whole thing is designed to be used and discarded - no rinsing, no residue.
Key ingredients
Ascorbyl Glucoside (Vitamin C)
A stable, gentle form of Vitamin C that helps brighten the look of dull, uneven skin. It converts gradually on the skin and does not sting.
Glycerin & Butylene Glycol
Two humectants that draw water into the skin and carry the actives, giving the immediate plumping effect.
Sodium Citrate
A pH adjuster that keeps the formula in the range where the Vitamin C works and the skin stays comfortable.
Xanthan Gum
A plant-derived thickener that keeps the serum evenly distributed through the sheet.
Who it's for
This pack is for anyone whose skin looks dull or tired and who wants a visible result in fifteen minutes - before an event, after a flight, or following a bad night's sleep.
It suits all skin types, including sensitive, since the Vitamin C form used is among the gentlest available. Ten masks is enough for regular use rather than saving them for special occasions, which is where the cumulative brightening comes from.
What to expect
Skin looks brighter and feels noticeably plumper straight after removing the mask, and makeup sits better. That immediate effect lasts a day or two. Used twice a week, the brightening becomes cumulative over four to eight weeks.
How to use
Apply to clean, dry skin, leave for fifteen to twenty minutes, then remove and massage in the remainder.
Unfold the sheet, position it over the face aligning the eye and mouth openings, and smooth out any air pockets. Do not leave it on longer than twenty minutes - as a sheet dries it begins to draw moisture back out. Remove, discard, and pat in whatever serum is left rather than rinsing.

Frequently asked questions
Why use a sheet mask rather than a serum?
The fabric holds a generous dose against the skin for fifteen minutes with no evaporation, so far more of the formula reaches the skin than from the same serum applied by hand.
How long should I leave it on?
Fifteen to twenty minutes, no longer. As the sheet dries it begins to draw moisture back out.
Do I rinse afterwards?
No. Pat in whatever serum is left.
Do I still need a moisturizer?
Yes, to seal the hydration in. Apply it after patting in the remaining serum.
How often can I use them?
Once or twice a week. Ten masks covers over a month at that rate.
Will it sting?
It shouldn't. Ascorbyl Glucoside is one of the gentlest stable forms of Vitamin C.
Can I use them before an event?
Yes, that is one of their best uses. Skin looks plumper and brighter within fifteen minutes and makeup sits better.
Is it vegan?
Yes. All the ingredients in this formula are plant-derived or synthetic.
Can I reuse a mask?
No. They are single-use, both for hygiene and because the serum is spent.
