Kojic Acid Turmeric Night Wrapping Mask

An overnight mask that behaves like a peel-off: polyvinyl alcohol is second, so it dries to a film on the face rather than absorbing. Turmeric root extract fourth is unusually high, while the kojic acid, ascorbic acid and retinol the name leans on are the last four entries. Twenty-two ingredients and no fragrance.

What stands out in the list

Worked out from the ingredients, not the packaging claims.

  • 2 ingredients flagged for pregnancy

    Kojic Acid, Retinol are usually avoided or used with caution during pregnancy, and Retinol is normally avoided outright. This is what the ingredient entries say, not medical advice, so ask your midwife or doctor.

  • 2 concentration-capped ingredients

    EU law sets a maximum for Kojic Acid, Retinol. Products on sale in the EU must comply.

  • No fragrance or declared allergens

    Nothing in the list is Parfum/Fragrance or an EU-declared fragrance allergen.

  • No drying alcohol

    No ethanol, alcohol denat. or isopropyl alcohol in the list. Fatty alcohols such as cetearyl alcohol are not drying and do not count.

  • Barrier-supporting actives

    Contains Niacinamide, ingredients with reasonable evidence for calming and supporting the skin barrier.
