Teoxane Hydra Mask

Teoxane has added a new complexion pick me up to its dermocosmetic line up with RHA Hydra Mask, a gel in sheet mask that promises a visible hit of plumpness after one application and hydration that lasts up to eight hours.

Hydration runs through every layer of the formula. The mask uses a tri complex built around Saccharide Isomerate, Teoxane’s signature RHA hyaluronic acid and glycogen. Saccharide Isomerate, a plant derived carbohydrate complex, is included to bind to the skin and boost the proteins that support structure and barrier function, helping to smooth out roughness and ease that tight, papery feeling that comes with dehydration. RHA, formulated with both crosslinked and non crosslinked hyaluronic acids, creates a breathable mesh across the surface that traps water, reinforces the barrier and gives a flexible, smoothing effect. Glycogen from sweetcorn brings an extra water holding capacity and works in tandem with hyaluronic acid to push moisture deeper and support the skin’s own hyaluronic acid production.

In clinical testing, a single use delivered a 20 percent boost in hydration, with an 8 percent uplift still recorded eight hours later. Eighty six percent of users reported that their skin looked more plumped after applying the mask. For a product designed to be used occasionally rather than daily, those figures support its role as a fast acting rescue step before events, after flights or when actives have tipped a routine into irritation.

The RHA Hydra Mask is described as a cooling gel in mask that hugs facial contours, allowing the tri complex to work while giving an instant sense of relief to parched skin. The finish is intended to be smooth, supple and comfortably dewy rather than sticky, so makeup can be applied after a short pause or skin can be left bare for a healthy sheen. It is the kind of format that slots easily into an evening routine or a pre makeup ritual in clinic waiting rooms.

Teoxane RHA Hydra Mask is available now from teoxane.co.uk and authorised stockists.
