Cosmetic Recipe: DIY Hydrating & Soothing Alginate Face Mask

Instructions:

1. In a clean bowl, quickly whisk together the Hydrating Alginate Mask with Chitosan powder and the distilled water until a smooth, lump-free paste is formed. Work quickly as the mask will start to set.
2. Add the Aloe Vera Gel and Cucumber Extract to the mixture and stir gently to combine.
3. If using, add the diluted essential oil and mix thoroughly.
4. Immediately apply the mask generously and evenly over cleansed face, avoiding the eye area and nostrils.
5. Leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes, or until it has completely set and feels firm.
6. Gently peel off the mask starting from the edges.
7. Rinse any residue with lukewarm water and follow with your regular skincare routine.

Application Recommendations:

• Use this mask 1-2 times per week for best results.
• Ensure the water is at room temperature for optimal mixing and setting of the alginate.
• Apply the mask quickly after mixing to prevent it from setting prematurely.
• For an extra cooling effect, you can slightly chill the distilled water before mixing.
• Customize your mask by adding other water-soluble extracts or serums to the water phase before mixing with the alginate powder.
• After removing the mask, follow with a hydrating serum and moisturizer to lock in the moisture.
• Store the Hydrating Alginate Mask with Chitosan powder in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
