Award-winning British luxury skincare with pharmacy roots reaching back to 1955. High-performance actives in routines that take just two minutes. Why you'll love it Skin looks smoother and more renewed after a single treatment, thanks to Bakuchiol Bakuchiol sits fourth in the formula, so it is present at a meaningful level Skin feels more elastic and resilient, supported by amino-acid-rich Green Caviar The complexion looks brighter straight after rinsing, helped by light-diffusing Mica Skin feels calm rather than tight, soothed by Aloe Vera and Allantoin A renewal treatment gentle enough for sensitive skin, unlike a Retinol mask Ten to fifteen minutes once or twice a week is all it needs What it is A weekly treatment mask built around Bakuchiol, which appears fourth in the ingredient list - a substantial placement that makes this a genuine renewal treatment rather than a hydrating mask with a token active. Bakuchiol is a plant-derived compound from the babchi seed that supports a similar renewal process to Retinol through a different route, and with a markedly gentler profile. That gentleness is what makes it viable in a mask: a Retinol mask would be too aggressive for a fifteen-minute concentrated application, whereas Bakuchiol is well tolerated even at this contact time. Alongside it, Caulerpa Lentillifera Extract - Green Caviar, a sea grape rich in amino acids and minerals - supports the skin's elasticity. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder and Allantoin keep the treatment comfortable, Glycerin hydrates, and Mica gives an immediate brightening finish. Key ingredients Bakuchiol A plant-derived compound from the babchi seed, fourth in this formula. It supports skin renewal with a far gentler profile than Retinol, which is what makes it suitable in a concentrated mask. Caulerpa Lentillifera Extract (Green Caviar) A marine sea grape naturally rich in amino acids and minerals. It supports the skin's elasticity and resilience. Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder & Allantoin Two soothing ingredients that keep the treatment comfortable rather than stripping. Glycerin A moisture-binding humectant that keeps skin hydrated through the treatment. Mica A light-diffusing mineral that gives an immediate brightening, soft-focus finish. Who it's for This mask is ideal for anyone wanting a weekly renewal treatment without the irritation a Retinol product can cause. It suits all skin types, including sensitive skin, which is unusual for a renewal treatment. It works particularly well as the weekly step in a routine that is otherwise gentle, and as a Retinol alternative for anyone pregnant, breastfeeding or simply intolerant of retinoids. Because Bakuchiol does not increase sun sensitivity, there is no need to restrict it to evenings. What to expect Skin looks brighter and feels smoother immediately after rinsing, with a soft-focus finish. There is no tingling or tightness. Renewal benefits from Bakuchiol are gradual: most people notice texture looking smoother and fine lines softer between eight and twelve weeks of weekly use. How to use Apply an even layer to clean, dry skin once or twice a week and leave for ten to fifteen minutes. Smooth over the face and neck, avoiding the immediate eye area, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Follow with your serum and moisturizer. Can be used morning or evening, since Bakuchiol does not increase sun sensitivity. Suitable on the same day as other actives, though spacing them out is more comfortable.

Bakuchiol supports a similar renewal process with a gentler profile. In a fifteen-minute mask that gentleness is the point - a Retinol mask would be too aggressive. Can I use it if I'm pregnant? Bakuchiol is not a retinoid, so it does not carry the same restriction. Speak to your healthcare practitioner about any product you are unsure of. How long should I leave it on? Ten to fifteen minutes. There is no benefit to leaving a rinse-off mask on longer. Morning or evening? Either. Unlike Retinol, Bakuchiol does not increase sun sensitivity. How often can I use it? Once or twice a week is right for most skin. Do I still need a moisturizer afterwards? Yes. Follow with your usual routine once you have rinsed. What is Green Caviar? It is Caulerpa Lentillifera, a sea grape rich in amino acids and minerals. It has nothing to do with fish roe. Is it vegan? Yes. All the ingredients in this formula are plant-derived, marine algae or mineral. Can I use it around my eyes? Avoid the immediate eye area, and rinse thoroughly if contact occurs. Caution: This is a cosmetic product for external use only, and all results will be temporary; individual results may vary. Carry out a patch test before application, and do not apply to broken, damaged, or sunburnt skin. Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs. If redness, irritation, or discomfort occurs, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare practitioner. Consult your healthcare practitioner before starting a new skin treatment, or if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medication. Do not ingest. Store out of direct sunlight in a cool, dry place, and keep out of the reach of children.
