Glycocure Exfoliating Mask Intensive Renewal | Expert Lab

Discover an advanced at-home exfoliation with a professional finish. Glycocure Intense Renewal Exfoliating Mask has been formulated to visibly transform the skin: it refines the texture, smooths unevenness, reduces the appearance of dark spots, and reveals a more luminous, even, and rejuvenated complexion. A true skin-renewal treatment for those seeking fast, effective, and sensory results.

Advanced renewing action

This mask combines the effectiveness of chemical exfoliants AHA and BHA with the precision of a gentle physical exfoliation. Its formula works on multiple levels of the skin to:

• Remove the surface layer of dead cells and improve cellular renewal.
• Perfect the texture by blurring enlarged pores and unevenness.
• Minimize the appearance of dark spots and small signs of photoaging.
• Provide smoother, fresher skin with a visibly brighter glow.
• Support elasticity and hydration, preparing the skin for subsequent treatments.

Results on the skin

After regular use, the skin feels more even, comfortable, and with a “new skin” look. Ideal as a weekly treatment to revive dull complexions, uneven texture, and concerns about dark spots and the first wrinkles.

• More even, luminous tone.
• Refined texture and silky feel.
• Visible reduction of small wrinkles and expression lines.
• Skin that’s more receptive to serums, masks, and targeted treatments.

Triple-action exfoliating technology

The Glycocure Intense Renewal Exfoliating Mask formula combines standout actives for skin renewal to achieve the perfect balance between efficacy and tolerance:

• AHAs (glycolic, citric, and tartaric acids): renewing-action exfoliants that help lift dead cells from the surface, improve skin flexibility, and increase epidermal permeability, enhancing the absorption of subsequent treatments.
• Salicylic acid (BHA): a keratolytic-action exfoliant that promotes controlled, even sloughing, helps unclog pores, and improves texture in skin prone to hyperkeratinization.
• Exfoliating wax microbeads: provide gentle physical exfoliation that refines the skin’s surface without irritation, achieving a soft, even, polished finish.

Recommended method of use

Incorporate it into your weekly treatment routine to maximize radiance and the potential of your skin:

• Step 1 – Prep: With clean, dry skin, apply an even layer of the mask to the face, avoiding the eye contour.
• Step 2 – Act: Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes, allowing the AHAs, BHA, and microbeads to work deeply.
• Step 3 – Massage and remove: Slightly wet your hands and perform a gentle massage to enhance the physical exfoliating action. Rinse with plenty of lukewarm water.
• Step 4 – Protect: Always finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen SPF 30 or higher during the day.

It is recommended to use it once per week, adjusting the frequency according to your skin’s needs and tolerance.

Ideal follow-up routine

For a high-performance at-home protocol, combine it with a gentle cleanser, a specific eye contour, a treatment serum, and a moisturizing or anti-spot treatment. The subsequent use of a high-protection sunscreen is essential to preserve the results and prevent new dark spots.
