Proto-Col
Rejuvenating Facemask System
Is this the best anti-ageing facemask
system ever formulated? We certainly think so. With silk protein, collagen,
papaya and sea fennel this soothing and nourishing mask has an active lifting
effect. Radiant, silky skin requires nothing more than total relaxation for 15
minutes with this fantastic product.
This Rejuvenating Collagen Facemask
can visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles by nourishing the skin. It has been
designed so that the bio-active ingredients it contains penetrate the skin
during the relaxing treatment. The formula includes fresh Royal Jelly, Aloe Vera
and Hydrolised Silk Protein which is readily absorbed into the underlying
tissue, and which in turn improves skin colour and texture. Users report a
'radiant complexion'
The collagen facemask has been
formulated as a twice weekly treatment.
Key
ingredients and their properties
-
Algae Extract - helps smooth
fine lines and noticeably tighten the skin.
-
Pseudo Collagen - nourishing
and anti-wrinkle.
-
Neroli Oil - helps with the
regeneration of skin cells and improving skin elasticity. Particularly helpful
with skin conditions such as thread veins, scarring and stretch marks.
-
Magnesium - plays an
important role in maintaining cells balance.
-
Copper - it helps the body
form red blood cells. It is also part of the body's production of ribonucleic
acid (RNA), the protein that forms the nucleus of every cell.
-
Zinc - important for the
growth of body cells, helps speed up the healing process and is commonly used
for controlling acne.
-
Panthenol - metabolises in
the skin to form Pantothenic Acid, a deep penetrating moisturiser, stimulates
cell proliferation, promotes minor wound healing, acts as an anti-inflammatory
agent and is effective in treating acute sunburn.
-
Vitamin C - a free radical
scavenger (anti-oxidant). Vitamin C is essential for healthy skin.
-
Vitamin E - penetrates into
the skin and bio-converts to active Tocopherol, reduces UV induced lipid
peroxidation and erthema, helps in wound healing, exhibits anti-inflammatory
activity, protects cells from UV damage and environmental pollutants and
scavenges free radicals.
-
Jojoba Oil - can help avoid
dryness and lipid peroxidation - two of the most important causes of premature
aging of the skin. Its extreme oxidative stability can help anti-oxidants
avoid tissue damaging lipid peroxidation with its free radicals. Its
excellent, light, non-occlusive emolliency is well recognised and as such is
used to help prevent moisture loss.
-
Coral Seaweed - helps to
tighten the skin. Rich in amino acids, vitamins and minerals.
-
Aloe Vera - a soothing
extract. Helps in the healing of wounds, minor burns, irritable rashes, stings
and bites.
Application
Apply to a thoroughly cleansed face.
To apply the mask, start by following
the cheekbone and smile line. Fan the mask out in an upward direction, using the
wide end of the spatula provided. Apply thinly, smoothly and evenly.
Eye area: Gently apply around
the eye area. Begin at the outer corner of each eye, ensuring that you do not
drag this delicate tissue. If the tissue is extremely lined the mask should be
applied by gently patting on with fingertip.
Forehead: Apply above the
brow-line to the hairline, paying close attention to any frown lines between the
eyebrows.
Relax and recline for10-15 minutes.
To remove the mask rinse with luke warm water dabbing the mask off gently with a
soft cloth. Any excess mask which remains on the skin can be gently rubbed into
the skin and will be absorbed.
Frequently
Asked Questions
Will the mask set and need peeling
off ?
No. This is a hydrating mask which
feeds and lubricates the delicate facial tissue. It will not set.
What properties does the facemask
have ?
How often do I need to use the
mask ?
You can use the mask as often or
seldom as you like. Ideally it has been formulated as a twice weekly treatment,
however many people find that one treatment per week gives great results
improving both their skin tone texture and visible ‘age’
When I remove the mask I’m left
with little bits on my face. How should I remove the last traces ?
The mask has been designed so that
any small traces left after rinsing with luke warm water can be rubbed gently
into the skin. The skin will absorb the cream.
Should I apply any cream after the
facemask ?
You do not need to apply any cream
after the facemask. However, many people like to use the silk firming treatment
after the mask and it has been specially formulated to work in this capacity
hand in glove.
Do I need to recline during the
treatment ?
No. You can use the mask without
taking 10-15 minutes to recline and put your feet up but we have found that the
mask works most effectively if you do. It also allows you to unwind and
de-stress and will aid circulation to the skin on your face as the mask gets to
work.
