Clay mask / exfoliating mask
Description
Dermaceutic Mask 15% is a purifying clay-based mask designed to deeply cleanse and exfoliate combination to oily, acne-prone skin. Its potent blend of 15% glycolic acid, 2% salicylic acid and absorbent clays (bentonite/kaolin) removes dead skin cells, excess sebum and impurities; tightens pores and leaves the skin with a matte, purified appearance. Intended especially for oily or acne-prone skin, Mask 15 helps reduce imperfections, refine texture, and support clearer, smoother skin.
Bnefits
Exfoliates dead skin cells and removes impurities for a cleaner, smoother skin surface.
Reduces excess sebum and helps control oiliness — beneficial for oily or combination skin.
Tightens and refines pores for a more refined, matte appearance.
Unclogs pores and helps prevent acne or breakouts by removing debris and sebum.
Stimulates skin cell renewal thanks to glycolic and salicylic acids, improving skin texture over time.
Indications
Oily or combination skin needing deep cleansing and oil control.
Acne-prone or blemish-prone skin requiring unclogged pores and reduction in sebum build-up.
Skin with large or dilated pores looking for pore refinement and smoother texture.
Congested or dull skin needing exfoliation and renewal to improve clarity and radiance.
Not recommended for sensitive or easily irritated skin due to active acids; better suited for oily/combination skin requiring strong treatment.
Composition
15% Glycolic Acid — alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that exfoliates dead skin cells by reducing corneocyte cohesion and stimulating skin cell renewal.
2% Salicylic Acid — beta hydroxy acid (BHA), lipophilic and helps unclog pores by dissolving lipids and reducing intercorneocyte cohesion.
Bentonite (clay) — highly absorbent clay that absorbs excess sebum and toxins, tightens pores and purifies skin.
Kaolin — mild clay that contributes to oil absorption and mask texture/stability.
Clay-based purifying mask / peeling mask with AHA and BHA acids and absorbent clay.
Intended for periodic use (not daily) as a deep cleansing and exfoliating treatment.
Packaging
50 ml jar or tube (marketed as 50 ml) — typical packaging for clay masks in professional skincare distribution.
Outer box with full ingredient list, usage instructions and safety warnings (depends on retailer).
Usage
Apply a thin, even layer to cleansed and dry skin (face and neck), avoiding the eye contour area.
Leave on for 2 to 4 minutes (or until slight tingling) — do not exceed recommended duration.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Use once or twice a week depending on skin tolerance and oiliness level.
Follow with a gentle, hydrating moisturiser; if used during day, apply broad-spectrum SPF (due to AHA/BHA exfoliation increasing photosensitivity). (common best practice — implied by active acids)
Contraindications
Do not apply to broken, inflamed or irritated skin.
Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
Not recommended for very sensitive or reactive skin, or users not accustomed to strong exfoliating acids (AHA/BHA).
Use caution (or avoid) during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to high AHA concentration, as per manufacturer guidance.
Avoid combining with other strong exfoliating treatments (e.g. retinoids, peels) on the same day unless advised by a dermatology professional. (standard acid mask precaution)
Adverse Effects
Possible transient tingling, stinging or mild burning sensation during mask application, especially for first-time users or those with reactive skin.
Temporary redness, dryness or flakiness after use due to exfoliating acids.
Potential over-drying or skin barrier disruption if used too frequently or left on too long; dryness should be managed with moisturiser. (common for clay + acid masks)
Increased photosensitivity — risk of sunburn if adequate sun protection not used after application. (common AHA / BHA risk)
Storage Conditions
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. (standard for cosmetic masks)
Keep the container tightly closed when not in use to maintain formula stability.
Keep out of reach of children. (general cosmetic precaution)
Duration
Periodic use: 1\u20132 times per week as part of skincare routine or acne/oil-control protocol. No fixed long-term \u2018treatment duration\u2019; improvements in skin clarity, sebum regulation and texture usually observed with consistent use over several weeks.
Onset
Initial effects such as reduced oiliness, a cleaner feel and smoother surface visible immediately after rinse; more substantial improvements (finer pores, fewer breakouts, smoother texture) appear over several weeks of regular use.
