PURIFYING MASK

For anyone whose skin needs an express reset — combination, oily, and enlarged-pore skin types especially. In just 10 minutes, the mask absorbs excess sebum, unclogs pores, and helps even out skin appearance thanks to kaolin clay. Perfect before a night out, after a rough week, or whenever your skin is asking for a break.

No — and that was exactly the goal. Kaolin is one of the gentlest clays on the market: it purifies and controls shine without stripping. Squalane helps preserve the hydrolipidic film for a soft, comfortable finish. The result: clean skin, not cardboard skin.

Kaolin is a naturally derived white clay — and the gentlest one out there. Unlike more aggressive clays, it purifies and absorbs excess sebum without irritating or drying, making it suitable even for reactive skin. In this mask, it's paired with squalane to restore the lipid barrier and marine mud to protect against external stressors. The result: a mask that deeply cleanses without leaving skin red or uncomfortable.

1 to 2 times per week depending on your skin's needs. For combination to oily skin, twice a week is enough to keep pores clear and skin balanced. For more sensitive skin, once a week is plenty. Use after cleansing and before the rest of your routine — follow with serum and moisturizer to lock in the benefits.

10 minutes — no more. That's the sweet spot for kaolin to do its job without over-drying. Once the mask has set, rinse with lukewarm water using gentle circular motions. Pro tip: don't let it dry completely to the point your skin feels tight — the goal is to purify, not to end up dehydrated.
