The Most Important Thing About This Product Is…

Designed to purify the skin without drying it out, the Institut Esthederm Intensive Propolis+ face mask regulates sebum to save your oily and blemish-prone skin. It draws out impurities and toxins from pores to give them an excellent unclogging, which rids skin of blackheads and prevents spots from appearing. It tightens pores while mattifying and refining the skin, as it absorbs excess sebum so that you can boast a clear, smooth and shine-free complexion. The skin feels soft and comfortable, while imperfections and blemishes are visibly reduced.

Hero Ingredients:

The Institut Esthederm Intensive mask contains their new bio-sourced propolis, twice as effective as the previous inclusion at inhibiting the bacteria responsible for acne and spots. It’s certified organic and now comes from a small producer in France and also has an enhanced concentration of polyphenols, which protect skin from oxidative stress and free radicals. This is combined with a 25% dose of kaolin clay, renowned for its ability to draw out toxins and impurities from the pores while absorbing excess oil. It works to mattify and purify the skin without drying it out. It’s non-comedogenic, too, so you can trust it to unclog your pores without getting trapped.

What Skin Type Is It For?

The Institut Esthederm face mask is for blemish-prone adult skin.

What Does It Feel Like?

The face mask has a smooth and non-drying cream texture, which isn’t what you might expect from a clay mask. It dries on the skin, but you don’t get that hard effect you can sometimes experience with clay face masks.

What Does It Smell Like?

The face mask has a subtle sweet aroma.

How Do You Use The Product?

Apply a thin layer of the Institut Esthederm clay mask to cleansed, dry skin. Leave on for 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water. You can use it as an intensive treatment by applying it once a day for a week, two to three times a week moving forward, or just as a weekly treatment. Plus, it can also be used locally to target imperfections and breakouts as and when they appear.

What’s Special About The Design?

The midnight-blue, almost black tube is sleek and luxurious; it perfectly fits the full Institut Esthederm Intensive range. The silver lid not only looks good but also ensures the product is mess-free to use and is kept hygienic in between uses.
