People Say

★4.2Overall rating based on 200+ reviews

This peel-off mask is frequently praised for its ability to gently exfoliate dead skin cells and fine facial hair, resulting in noticeably smoother and brighter skin. While many users enjoy the satisfying peel and the immediate glow it provides, a significant number of reviews mention a strong alcohol scent and disappointment with its effectiveness in removing deep blackheads. The mask's sticky texture can also lead to a messy application and longer-than-expected drying times.

Questions and answers

How well does Aprilskin Real Calendula Peel Off Pack work for mature skin?

This cleansing mask is an average fit for mature skin, providing moderate cleaning and calming benefits with salicylic acid and calendula extract. Because it lacks specific ingredients for wrinkles and fine lines, a product for this skin needs rich hydrating and exfoliating ingredients that smooth lines while keeping the skin soft and healthy.

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024

Which ingredients make this peel-off mask a good fit for mature skin?

Salicylic acid and Calendula Officinalis Extract make this peel-off mask a moderate fit by exfoliating pores and calming the skin. Beta-glucan and Althaea Rosea Flower Extract also help provide general hydration and soothing effects. To fit mature skin best, this type of product needs ingredients that actively target wrinkles and fine lines.

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021

What does Calendula Extract do for mature skin?

Calendula extract helps keep mature skin feeling soft and smooth by improving skin hydration and firmness. It may also provide antioxidant benefits that protect against everyday environmental stress.

Acta Poloniae Pharmaceutica, 2011Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, 2015

What does Niacinamide do for mature skin?

Niacinamide helps mature skin by smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles, reducing dark spots, and improving overall skin elasticity. It is also very well tolerated and supports a strong skin barrier to keep skin looking healthy.

Antioxidants, 2021Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2004

Where does this peel-off mask go in a skincare routine for mature skin?

This peel-off mask fits into a weekly routine as an exfoliating step, though mature skin generally benefits more from products that target wrinkles and fine lines with nourishing ingredients and firming actives.

Can I use this peel-off mask with retinol, and in what order?

You should not use this peel-off mask on the same nights you apply retinol, as using them together is likely to cause excessive dryness and irritation. Mature skin needs a product focused on firming and rich hydration with ingredients like retinol, peptides, and ceramides instead of a peeling mask.

How often should I use this peel-off mask?

You can use this peel-off mask once a week, as exfoliating products work best when started slowly to see how your skin reacts. Mature skin needs products with nourishing ingredients and hydrating components that specifically target fine lines and wrinkles for a better fit.

Can this peel-off mask clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for mature skin?

This peel-off mask is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for mature skin, as it contains salicylic acid to help clear out pores and has a safe profile. However, because it does not target wrinkles, mature skin needs products with ingredients like retinol, peptides, and rich moisturizers to smooth fine lines and keep skin plump.

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024

Is this peel-off mask fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

It contains fragrance (parfum) and drying alcohol (alcohol denat).
