Skinmate Algae Gel Face Masks x 5

SkinMate Algae Gel Masks are natural, innovative, and highly effective. Algae derivatives and phytosqualane forms the base of this freeze-dried mask, only releasing the active ingredients when the mask is freshly activated with moisture. A variety of ampoules may be used with the gel to personalise the treatment.

The natural algae biomatrix contains no preservatives, fragrances, or cross linking agents and is highly compatible with the skin. Suitable for all skin types, especially dehydrated.

The plant-powered biomatrix provides:

• Deep hydration of the skin
• Skin repair and regeneration
• Smoother and more even textured skin
• Moisture "lock in"
• Firming

When the algae is re-hydrated, it provides an innovative massage gel which readily releases its vital elements to the skin whilst providing a perfect medium for facial massage. The gel then forms a "moisture seal" which locks in the moisture, giving a long-lasting result.

How to apply:

1. Cleanse, tone, and exfoliate the skin. Moisten the area to be treated - either with water or an ampoule mixed with water.

2. Open the sealed Algae Gel Mask with dry hands and place the matrix shapes onto moistened skin (excluding eye areas). OR place the shapes into a small bowl, add water, wait for gel to form. Stir with a spatula and apply with a masking brush.

3. Spread and massage the pliable gel over the skin for approximately 10-20 minutes by applying continuous moisture by steam, sponge, or brush.

4. Direct steam (not ozone) onto the areas being treated at a 30-40cm distance. Steaming should continue throughout the entire treatment. *If steaming is contra-indicated or not available, you may use a sponge moistened with water, a soft brush, or a trigger spray with water. Moisten regularly with fingertips dipped in water to achieve optimum pliability of the gel while massaging.

5. Do not let the mask dry. If this happens, redampen and wait for it to gel again.

6. Remove remaining gel with a tissue followed by a warm compress.

7. Finish treatment with a light moisturising emulsion appropriate for the skin type.
