Key Ingredients in Curel Moisture Repair Sheet Mask

The mask’s main ingredients are Kao’s ceramide functioning ingredient and eucalyptus extract, with dipotassium glycyrrhizate as the active ingredient. Kao says the soaked, soft sheet supplements the work of ceramides and delivers rich moisture to every corner of the face, and that its formula locks moisture in for a long time.

Curel Moisture Repair Sheet Mask Full Ingredient List

The sheet mask’s essence lists 15 ingredients on Kao’s Japanese site, with dipotassium glycyrrhizate first as the active ingredient. The preservative is phenoxyethanol, and it doesn’t list paraben.

How to Use the Curel Sheet Mask and How Long to Leave It On

Use the Curel sheet mask after toner, leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes, then follow with your usual milk or cream. Kao suggests it for times when dryness bothers you most, to help prevent rough skin, and as intensive care.

1. With clean hands, after toner such as Curel lotion, take the mask out of the pouch, taking care that the essence doesn’t drip.
2. Unfold it, line up the eye and mouth holes, and press it so it fits closely over your whole face.
3. Tear off the “anywhere care sheet” along the perforation and place it over gaps such as the sides of the nose, around the eyes or around the mouth. If your eyelids feel dry, you can fold the eye flaps of the mask down over closed eyes.
4. After 10 to 15 minutes, peel off the mask and gently press the remaining essence into your skin with your palms.
5. Finish with your usual milk or cream, such as Curel face milk or Curel Intensive Moisture Cream.

Kao says to use it about once or twice a week, or every day depending on your skin’s condition. Its label says not to use it on cuts, swellings, eczema or other abnormal skin, not to leave it on for a long time, and to keep the essence out of your eyes, rinsing well if it gets in. Stop and see a dermatologist if irritation appears.
