Product Spotlight: Masque 105

Those with dry or sensitive skin aren’t immune to clogged pores. It’s completely possible to have dry or sensitive skin and be oily or acne prone at the same time! But even though combination skin is very real, many of the masks for clogged pores, blackheads and breakouts don’t cater to this skin type. Their formulas are too aggressive, leaving skin blotchy, red, or uncomfortably tight.

Luckily there’s Masque 105, a little miracle worker that is both gentle and effective. Formulated specifically for dry and sensitive skin types, this clay mask clears blackheads and improves the complexion while simultaneously soothing skin. If your skin is feeling dull, lifeless, or congested, Masque 105 is the answer to restore balance, purify, and get glowing again. 

1. Clears congestion and absorbs excess oil.

Masque 105 is a triple clay mask made with kaolin, bentonite and montmorillonite. These purifying clays clear the complexion by decongesting skin and preventing the buildup of impurities. When used weekly, skin is clarified, pores are tightened, and skin is detoxified. The result is a glowing, flawless complexion that appears and feels more balanced.

You can even rely on Masque 105 to help you get rid of stubborn blemishes! Apply as the final step in your evening skincare routine and leave on overnight as an on-the-spot treatment. The purifying and clarifying mask will shrink your breakouts and speed up healing time.

2. Formulated to be tolerable to sensitive and dry skin.

Some masks can dry out skin and cause irritation but not Masque 105. Its formula was specifically crafted with dry and sensitive skin types in mind. You can use the mask one to three times a week without any negative side effects. To apply, first cleanse skin and spray on Lotion Yon-Ka. Then proceed with a thick layer of Masque 105 on the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Set your timer for 15 minutes and spray on Lotion Yon-Ka as needed to keep the mask moist while it works.

To remove, wipe off the mask using warm water and gently pat skin dry (never rub). After you’ve removed your mask completely, you can then follow with your regular beauty routine of serums and creams. As mentioned before, you can also use Masque 105 as an on-the-spot blemish treatment and the last step in your skincare routine.

3. Calm and soothes as it detoxifies.

Masque 105 is great beauty product because it clears out blackheads and absorbs excess oil while also calming and soothing the skin. Lemon essential oil and the Yon-Ka Quintessence blend of lavender, geranium, rosemary, cypress and thyme give this clay mask its purifying, balancing and soothing properties – as well as its fresh, clean invigorating aroma.

Dry and sensitive skin types tend to shy away from clay masks because they think they’re only for those with oily skin. That couldn’t be farther from the truth! The benefits of clay are equally as advantageous to those with sensitive or dry skin. Masque 105 clarifies skin without irritation and proves to sensitive and dry skin types that there is no need to avoid clay masks. With the right formula (and following our trick – spray on Lotion Yon-Ka during application to keep your mask damp) you can still garner the good of clay no matter your skin type.
