FRESH exfoliating mask

Info: Stress, dry central heating, long days in front of a screen or plenty of time outdoors in wind and weather: sooner or later, it all shows on your skin. It looks dull, feels rough in places, and your skincare no longer seems to sink in properly. The cause is often dead skin cells building up on the surface. Classic scrubs with grains do rub them away, but they irritate sensitive skin in particular for no good reason. FRESH exfoliating mask takes a gentler approach. Instead of scrubbing, natural fruit enzymes from papaya, pineapple and kiwi work together with mild PHA to simply dissolve dead skin cells, impurities and excess sebum. The oily texture turns into a milky emulsion on contact with water and rinses off beautifully. Pores look refined, fine lines appear softened and your complexion looks visibly fresher and more even.

At the same time, the mask delivers intense moisture and supports the skin’s natural renewal. Afterwards, your skin feels velvety soft and smooth, almost as if you had just had a facial at a beauty salon. And because the surface is clear, the skincare you apply next can absorb much better.

Product experience: One of my customers is a construction site manager and spends a large part of his day outdoors on site. Dust, sun, wind, the cold in winter and then the dry air in the site office. On top of that comes his daily shave. For a long time, skincare was something he simply didn’t want to think about. A moisturiser in the morning, done. At some point, though, it started to bother him that his skin looked grey and tired in the evenings, felt rough on his cheeks and kept breaking out in little red bumps on his neck after shaving. He had no time for scrubs with grains, which tended to sting rather than help. That’s why FRESH exfoliating mask pleasantly surprised him. He applies it on Sunday evenings after his shower, massages it in briefly and leaves it on for a few minutes while he plans his week. At first it tingled a little, but that passed quickly. After rinsing, his skin feels really smooth and clean, without any tightness.

What he likes most: his Monday morning shave has been noticeably easier ever since. The blade glides better, his skin is less irritated and the red bumps on his neck appear far less often. After a few weeks, his wife asked him whether he had been on holiday because he looked so rested. The mask is now a fixed part of his Sunday, five minutes that pay off all week long.

Tip: Make the mask a fixed part of your week, once or twice. Ideally on an evening when you have a little time for yourself anyway, for example after sport or on Sunday before the new working week. Apply it to cleansed, damp skin, massage it in gently for about 10 seconds and leave it on for 2 to 5 minutes. That’s just enough time to pack tomorrow’s lunch or go through the week’s appointments. Then rinse thoroughly with clear water. If your skin is very sensitive, start with less than a minute.

For anyone who shaves regularly: don’t use the mask straight after shaving, use it the evening before instead. That way your skin is smooth and prepared the next morning, and the blade glides more easily. Make the most of the moment afterwards, when your skin is especially receptive: a FRESH serum combined with an ADDS of your choice can absorb particularly well now. And a tip for working life: if you have an important meeting, a job interview or a photo shoot coming up, apply the mask the evening before. Your complexion will look fresher the next day and make-up goes on more evenly.

Important: avoid the eye area and broken skin. Avoid direct sunlight after use or use sun protection. Do not use together with FRESH overnight face treatment. Contains latex and actinidain.
