Description
The APLB Glutathione Niacinamide Sheet Mask is a popular choice for an instant boost of brightness, hydration, and soothing.1It’s formulated with a blend of key ingredients to revitalize dull, tired skin.
Key Ingredients and Their Benefits:
- Glutathione (1,000ppm / 0.1%):Â As the “master antioxidant,” glutathione helps protect skin cells from damage caused by free radicals, which contribute to premature aging. Its main role in this mask is to brighten the complexion by inhibiting melanin production, thereby reducing the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and promoting an overall more even skin tone.APLB often uses “microfluidizer technology” to nano-size the glutathione for enhanced absorption.
- Niacinamide (1,000ppm / 0.1%):Â Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) is a powerful multi-tasker. In this mask, it works synergistically with glutathione to further brighten the skin, reduce the appearance of pores, improve skin elasticity, and strengthen the skin’s barrier function for better moisture retention.
- Centella Asiatica Extract (13.5%): This high concentration of Cica is a star ingredient for soothing and healing.It’s renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, making it excellent for calming irritated, red, or sensitive skin. It also supports skin regeneration and healing.The “Centella 3x Complex”.
- Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate): A potent humectant that draws and locks moisture into the skin, providing intense and long-lasting hydration for a plump and supple complexion.
- Hydrolyzed Collagen: Contributes to improved skin elasticity and hydration, helping to maintain a youthful appearance.
- Beta-Glucan: A polysaccharide that soothes irritated skin, strengthens the skin barrier, and offers additional hydration and antioxidant protection.
- Various Plant Extracts: Including Nelumbo Nucifera (Lotus) Extract, Artemisia Annua (Mugwort) Extract, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Extract, Saccharomyces Ferment, Solanum Melongena (Eggplant) Fruit Extract, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract, and Hippophae Rhamnoides (Sea Buckthorn) Fruit Extract. These contribute further antioxidant, nourishing, and soothing benefits.
