EXFOLIATING MASK

Function

A weekly exfoliating mask designed to support controlled resurfacing, barrier regulation, and skin clarity without cumulative irritation.

Clinical rationale

The Exfoliating Mask was developed to address a common pattern observed in clinical practice: skin that benefits from periodic exfoliation but becomes compromised when exfoliating products are layered or used too frequently.

In these cases, the issue is not a need for stronger acids.
More often, it reflects insufficient recovery between exfoliation cycles.

This formulation provides short-contact exfoliation within a controlled pH range, allowing refinement of texture and removal of buildup while preserving barrier integrity. By concentrating exfoliation into a defined window rather than extending exposure, the skin is able to renew without prolonged stress.

Indications

Best suited for:
• Skin experiencing congestion, uneven texture, or surface buildup
• Skin requiring periodic exfoliation beyond daily cleansing
• Protocols that benefit from weekly exfoliation without daily acid use
• Individuals alternating exfoliation methods to maintain barrier stability

Not intended for:
• Daily use or repeated application within the same week
• Use alongside other exfoliating products on the same day
• Compromised or post-procedure skin requiring recovery only
• Those seeking aggressive or rapid resurfacing

Protocol placement

Use once weekly, or up to twice weekly based on skin tolerance and professional guidance.

On days the Exfoliating Mask is used, it should be applied in place of the Exfoliating Toner, not in combination. Apply in the evening after cleansing, leave on for 3–5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Daily sunscreen use is recommended while using this product.

This mask functions as a replacement exfoliation step within a restrained regimen, allowing the skin adequate recovery between exfoliation cycles.
