FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: How does the Hydrating B5 Masque differ from the daily Hydrating B5 Gel?

A: While both products share the core B5 and Hyaluronic Acid technology, the Masque is formulated as an intensive treatment step. The Masque utilizes a higher concentration and a denser, cooling gel vehicle designed to sit on the skin for 10–15 minutes, allowing for a "bolus" of moisture to be absorbed deeply into the epidermal layers. The daily B5 Gel is designed as a lighter, wearable corrective serum. For optimal clinical results, use the Masque as a weekly "recharge" treatment to correct deep dehydration, while using the B5 Gel daily to maintain moisture levels.

Q: Can this masque be used on oily or acne-prone skin without causing breakouts?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Hydrating B5 Masque is completely oil-free and non-comedogenic. Many acne-prone skin types suffer from "dehydrated-oily" status—where the skin is overproducing oil because it is starved of water. Because this masque provides pure, lipid-free hydration, it quenches the skin's water thirst without adding heavy or greasy ingredients that would congest the pores, ultimately helping to balance the skin and reduce sebum reactivity.

Q: Why is it recommended to use this mask post-procedure?

A: Following clinical procedures like microneedling or chemical peels, the skin barrier is temporarily compromised, leading to rapid water evaporation (transepidermal water loss). The Hydrating B5 Masque provides a "cooling blanket" of moisture that instantly soothes the heat of the procedure while effectively sealing the skin with Hyaluronic Acid. It acts as an essential recovery aid to restore suppleness and comfort to tissue that is raw or sensitized.

Q: Does the mask need to be rinsed off, or can it be left on overnight?

A: The Masque is designed to be a treatment application. For the best clinical results, apply a generous layer to clean, dry skin, leave it on for 10–15 minutes, and then gently wipe away any excess with a warm, damp cloth or toner. While the skin will feel intensely plumped immediately, the formula is intended to be used as a mask treatment rather than an overnight sleep mask. Follow it with your usual moisturizer to lock the hydration into the skin.
