Why Use a Face Mask?

Rich in active ingredients that are essential for healthy skin, face masks help the skin regenerate following daily exposure to external aggressors and free radicals. Repeated exposure inevitably weakens the condition of the epidermis.

Thanks to the ingredients in their formulas, face masks work on the epidermis to protect your skin and enhance its appearance. Among other benefits, they remove impurities and toxins, restore the hydrolipidic film, reduce the appearance of signs of ageing and intensely nourish the skin to help preserve its youthful potential.

To maximise the benefits of a face mask and achieve the desired results, it is essential to choose a treatment suited to your skin type and needs. Indeed, each mask has a different action designed to address specific skin concerns.

Which Face Mask Should You Choose for Your Skin’s Needs?

To fully benefit from the properties of a face mask, it is important to know your skin type and understand its specific needs. Indeed, the purpose of this treatment varies depending on the requirements and condition of the skin.

Thanks to PATYKA’s Advanced Research, complete your skin diagnosis in just a few minutes and discover a personalized, certified organic beauty routine.

For dry and/or dehydrated skin

Choose a nourishing and hydrating mask to put an end to feelings of tightness and discomfort. Packed with thirst-quenching and soothing active ingredients, this treatment helps preserve the skin’s suppleness, elasticity, and comfort over the long term.

For combination to oily skin

To regulate excess sebum, choose a purifying, non-comedogenic mask. It effectively oxygenates the skin and tightens pores to help prevent imperfections such as comedones, blackheads, and small blemishes.

Please note that combination skin can apply this mattifying treatment to the T-zone only, and then use a hydrating mask on the rest of the face. Indeed, “multi-masking” provides targeted solutions for each area of your face.

For tired-looking skin

To brighten a dull complexion, apply a radiance-boosting mask. Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, it helps combat wrinkles and dark circles that can affect the skin’s appearance. The skin instantly feels softer, plumper, and more radiant.

This type of treatment is also ideal for those frequently exposed to pollution, thanks to its detoxifying active ingredients.

For sensitive skin

Opt for hypoallergenic masks specifically formulated for reactive skin, featuring natural ingredients and tested under dermatological control. A hydrating mask provides genuine soothing comfort, helping to reduce skin redness and uncomfortable feelings of tightness.

For skin lacking firmness

To restore your skin’s youthful appearance, nothing compares to powerful natural active ingredients. Choose plumping and firming masks that work deep within the skin to help restore firmness and elasticity.

To care for and protect your skin, PATYKA has developed certified organic face masks made with natural and ethically sourced ingredients, suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive.

PATYKA Intense Rehydrating Cream Mask

A powerful hydrating treatment, the Intense Rehydrating Cream Mask intensely replenishes the water reserves of thirsty skin, providing intense and long-lasting hydration.

Infused with Polyglutamic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid and organic Alpine Everlasting, it instantly rehydrates the skin and strengthens the skin barrier to lock in moisture deep within the epidermis for lasting hydration. Intensely replenished with moisture, the skin feels comfortable, supple and soft once again.

1 Mask. 2 ways to use it:

• 10-minute application: Apply a generous layer to perfectly cleansed, dry skin. After 10 minutes, massage any excess product into the skin until absorbed. Do not rinse!

• Overnight application: If your skin is particularly dry and fragile, leave the mask on overnight for deep, intensive hydration.

PATYKA Detox Charcoal Mask

With purifying and astringent properties, the Detox Charcoal Mask helps regulate excess sebum and rebalance combination to oily skin. It also restores radiance and freshness to city-dweller skin that has been weakened by pollution.

Thanks to its Vegetable Charcoal extracts, this detoxifying mask unclogs pores and absorbs toxins, while Zinc extracts gently purify the skin by targeting the bacteria responsible for imperfections. Green Clay, meanwhile, helps reduce the appearance of skin marks thanks to its ability to stimulate the healing of epidermal tissues.

Its creamy texture melts into the skin and works effectively without irritating or drying it out.

PATYKA Pro-Collagen Lift Mask

An intensive anti-ageing treatment, the Pro-Collagen Lift Mask is a true youth-boosting treatment. It stimulates cell renewal as well as collagen and elastin synthesis, thanks to the star ingredient at the heart of its formula: 100% natural Retinol-Like derived from Vigna Aconitifolia, a plant native to the arid regions of South Asia and cultivated for its protein-rich seeds. Its anti-ageing efficacy is comparable to that of retinol, while offering better skin tolerance.

This anti-ageing overnight treatment works deep down to support collagen production, thanks to a powerful anti-ageing active: Pure, Natural Low-Molecular-Weight Hyaluronic Acid. It penetrates through the different layers of the epidermis to reach the dermis, delivering deep-down action. It helps improve tissue tone and supports tissue regeneration. The skin appears denser, firmer and more toned.

This mask is a true youth-restoring treatment for skin lacking firmness and radiance, notably thanks to Amino Acids, which help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and Vitamin C, which helps combat pigmentation spots and restore radiance to the complexion.

How to apply a face mask?

Before applying a face mask, the skin should be perfectly cleansed and free from all residue to ensure optimal absorption of its active ingredients.

To maximise the benefits of this treatment, we recommend steaming your face or using a natural facial exfoliator. This helps open the pores and remove impurities. PATYKA recommends the Double-Action Smoothing Scrub, which gently exfoliates the skin.

Ideally, apply a mask once or twice a week, depending on your skin’s needs (dryness, flaking, breakouts, etc.) and leave it on for around 15 minutes.

Good to know:

This type of treatment cannot replace your moisturiser. Masks should be used as a complement to your daily skincare routine.
