POWERFUL RETINOL GEL MASK, 250 ml

Anti-Aging Hydrating Mask for Mature Skin

A particularly interesting formula combining a high concentration of glycerin, aloe vera, plant oils, retinoids, peptides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants.

Professional Formula Analysis

1. Intensive Hydration — the Foundation of the Formula

• Glycerin 17% — a very high concentration of humectant. It attracts and retains water in the stratum corneum, helping to reduce dryness and feelings of tightness.

• Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice 5% — hydrates, softens, and soothes the skin.

• Pentylene Glycol 2% — provides additional hydration and contributes to skin comfort.

• Sodium Hyaluronate 0.09% — a form of hyaluronic acid that helps retain moisture and contributes to visibly improved smoothness and suppleness.

2. Nourishment and Lipid Barrier Support

• Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride 5% — softens the skin, reduces feelings of dryness, and improves skin smoothness.

• Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil 5% — an oil rich in lipids that nourishes and softens the skin.

• Dicaprylyl Ether 2% — a lightweight emollient that improves softness and provides a silky skin feel.

• Sunflower Seed Oil 1% + Lecithin — help maintain the skin’s lipid balance and comfort.

• Tocopherol 1% — vitamin E, providing antioxidant protection and additional support for the skin’s lipids.

3. Anti-Aging Complex

This is the most interesting part of the formula.

Retinyl Palmitate 1% + Retinol 0.09%

A combination of two forms of vitamin A.

Retinol is the more active form and supports the skin’s renewal processes, helping to improve skin texture and overall appearance. Retinyl Palmitate acts more gently and complements the formula’s anti-aging action.

For a mask, this represents a particularly interesting anti-aging approach.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 0.07%

A peptide known as Argireline®. It is used in anti-aging formulas to help visibly reduce the appearance of expression lines and maintain a smoother-looking complexion.

Dipeptide Diaminobutyroyl Benzylamide Diacetate 0.07%

A peptide known as Syn-Ake®. It is also classified as an anti-aging peptide and helps visibly reduce the appearance of expression lines.

The formula therefore combines a dual anti-aging approach: retinoid + peptide.

4. Antioxidant Protection

• Tocopherol 1%

• Tocopheryl Acetate 0.07%

• 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid 0.07% — a stable vitamin C derivative.

• Beta-Carotene 0.08%

This antioxidant complex helps support the skin’s defense against oxidative stress and complements the formula’s anti-aging action.

5. Refreshing and Sensory Effect

Menthyl Lactate 1%

Provides an immediate sensation of freshness and cooling upon application. This effect is particularly interesting in a mask, as it provides a pleasant sensation of comfort and freshness during the treatment.

What Does This Mask Do?

I would not position it simply as a “hydrating mask.” Based on its composition, it would be more accurately described as:

An intensive hydrating and anti-aging mask for mature, dry, and dehydrated skin.
