The purifying mask helps to absorb excess sebum and mattify the skin texture.
The T-zone, which refers to the forehead, nose, and chin, of combination and problematic, even acne-prone, skin has specific care needs. Indeed, in this area, the number of sebaceous glands is high, which increases the production of sebum. As a result, it tends to shine.
For this reason, the use of a purifying mask is recommended. Indeed, it contains active ingredients that have the role of absorbing excess sebum. Among these active ingredients, the charcoal is highly valued due to its high porosity which allows it to capture this excess sebum. Thanks to these absorbing properties, the purifying mask mattifies and helps prevent the appearance of shine on the skin.

The purifying mask helps to prevent the emergence of blemishes.
By "regulating" sebum production, the purifying mask helps prevent excess sebum that can clog pores and lead to the emergence of pimples, blackheads, and blemishes. Moreover, by eliminating dead cells and impurities on the skin's surface, the purifying mask allows toprevent pore clogging and consequently the formation of pimples. Thus, by deeply cleansing, the purifying mask prevents the appearance of skin imperfections.
The purifying mask helps to remove impurities.
A key ingredient in purifying masks, charcoal is characterized by a porous structure that is capable of interacting with impurities present on the skin's surface. These impurities carry a positive electrical charge. The negatively charged charcoal can attract these impurities like a magnet, interacting through weak bonds, which allows for their removal.
