TX Astaxanthin Overnight Wrapping Mask (80ml)

Dr.Melaxin TX Astaxanthin Overnight Wrapping Mask is an overnight peel-off wrapping mask designed to hydrate, smooth and brighten dull, uneven-looking skin while you sleep. The formula combines Niacinamide with Tranexamic Acid, Astaxanthin, Glutathione, Resveratrol, Sodium Hyaluronate and antioxidant-rich Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract to support a clearer, more luminous-looking complexion. Its film-forming texture dries into a flexible layer that helps maintain moisture overnight and peels away in the morning for smoother, refreshed-looking skin.

Benefits:

• Helps brighten uneven-looking skin: Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid and antioxidant ingredients support a clearer, more luminous-looking complexion.
• Helps improve the appearance of dark spots: Consistent cosmetic brightening care can help visible discoloration and post-blemish marks appear less noticeable over time.
• Supports more even-looking tone: Niacinamide and Tranexamic Acid complement each other in a formula designed for dullness and uneven pigmentation.
• Provides overnight hydration: Glycerin, Glycereth-26 and Sodium Hyaluronate help attract moisture and reduce a dry, tight feeling.
• Creates a moisture-sealing wrapping layer: Polyvinyl Alcohol forms the peelable film that remains over the skin overnight and helps reduce the feeling of moisture loss.
• Provides antioxidant care: Astaxanthin, Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract, Resveratrol, Tocopherol and Glutathione help provide antioxidant support against environmental oxidative stress.
• Helps smooth rough-looking texture: Overnight hydration and film-forming ingredients help skin feel softer and appear more refined by morning.
• Supports a healthy-looking glow: Hydration and brightening ingredients work together to help tired or dull skin appear fresher and more radiant.
• Temporarily plumps dehydrated skin: Humectants help replenish surface moisture so fine dehydration lines appear softer.
• Provides intensive overnight care without a traditional heavy cream: The wrapping format allows the treatment to remain in contact with the skin while you sleep before being peeled away and rinsed off.

Skin Types: Normal • Dry • Dehydrated • Combination • Oily skin that tolerates peel-off masks • Mature skin • Sensitive skin that tolerates fragrance and film-forming masks
Skin Concerns: Uneven-looking tone • Dark spots • Post-blemish marks • Dullness • Dehydration • Rough texture • Loss of radiance • Fine dehydration lines

Clinical Results:

• The supplied product information states that the mask has passed a skin irritation test and has been dermatologically tested for gentle use.
• No testing institution, participant number, test duration, irritation score or complete methodology was supplied, so the extent of these claims cannot be independently evaluated from the provided information.
• Individual results may vary.

Formula Notes:

• Tranexamic Acid concentration: The supplied INCI lists Tranexamic Acid at 10,000 ppb, equivalent to approximately 0.001%.
• Astaxanthin concentration: The supplied INCI lists Astaxanthin at 10,000 ppb, equivalent to approximately 0.001%. Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract, a microalgae-derived ingredient naturally associated with astaxanthin, is also present separately.
• Triple-brightening claim: Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid and Astaxanthin are all confirmed in the supplied INCI, supporting the three-ingredient brightening positioning. However, only Tranexamic Acid and Astaxanthin have declared concentrations in the INCI.
• Melasma claims: The supplied marketing information refers to melasma and preventing hyperpigmentation. This cosmetic mask may help improve the appearance of uneven pigmentation and dark spots, but it should not be presented as preventing or medically treating melasma. Persistent or significant melasma is best assessed by a dermatologist.
• Wrapping-mask format: Polyvinyl Alcohol is the primary film-forming ingredient responsible for the peelable layer. The film provides a temporary occlusive effect rather than physically removing pigmentation or permanently changing the skin.
• Collagen: Collagen Extract is present. Topical Collagen mainly conditions and hydrates the skin’s surface and does not replace the skin’s natural dermal Collagen.
• Vegan status: Vegan status cannot be confirmed from the supplied INCI because Collagen Extract is present and its biological source is not specified.
• Artificial pigment claim: The supplied product information states that the mask is free of artificial pigment. However, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Calcium Titanium Borosilicate and Tin Oxide are present in the supplied INCI and can contribute to visual colour or optical effects, so the exact meaning of the manufacturer’s “free of artificial pigment” claim cannot be independently determined from the ingredient list alone.
• Fragrance: Fragrance is clearly listed in the supplied INCI, so the mask is not fragrance-free.
• Essential oils: No clearly identified aromatic essential oils are listed in the supplied INCI.
• Ingredient spelling: The supplied INCI includes “SeadFperdyl Extract\*”. This wording is preserved exactly in the Ingredients section because the supplied INCI is treated as the final reference.

How to Use:

1. Use in the evening after cleansing and any lightweight toner or serum steps.
2. Apply an even layer over the face while avoiding the eye area, lips, eyebrows and hairline.
3. Allow the mask to dry for approximately 20 minutes until a flexible film has formed.
4. Leave the dried wrapping mask on overnight.
5. In the morning, gently peel away the film without pulling aggressively on the skin.
6. Rinse any remaining residue away with lukewarm water.
7. Follow with your normal morning skincare routine and broad-spectrum sunscreen.
8. Do not apply to broken, irritated, freshly shaved or freshly waxed skin.
9. If the mask feels excessively tight, causes persistent burning or produces significant irritation, remove it rather than leaving it overnight.
10. Avoid deliberately applying a thick layer over the eyebrows or hairline, where removal may pull on hairs.

FAQ:

Q: What does Dr.Melaxin TX Astaxanthin Overnight Wrapping Mask do?
A: It provides overnight hydration and brightening care while helping dullness, uneven-looking tone, visible dark spots and rough texture appear improved by morning.

Q: Is this a sleeping mask or a peel-off mask?
A: It is both. The formula dries into a peelable film that remains on the skin overnight and is gently removed the following morning.

Q: How long does the mask take to dry?
A: The supplied directions recommend allowing approximately 20 minutes for the wrapping layer to dry before going to sleep.

Q: How long should I leave it on?
A: Once fully dried, leave the mask on overnight and remove it the following morning.

Q: Do I need to wash my face after peeling it off?
A: Yes. The supplied instructions recommend gently removing the film and then rinsing the skin with lukewarm water.

Q: Does the mask exfoliate old skin when it peels off?
A: It may remove some loose surface material when the film is peeled away, but it is not formulated as a dedicated chemical exfoliant. The main effect is overnight hydration, film formation and cosmetic brightening care.

Q: Does it contain Tranexamic Acid?
A: Yes. Tranexamic Acid is clearly listed in the supplied INCI.

Q: What percentage of Tranexamic Acid does it contain?
A: The INCI lists Tranexamic Acid at 10,000 ppb, which is approximately 0.001%.

Q: Is 10,000 ppb the same as 1% Tranexamic Acid?
A: No. 10,000 ppb equals approximately 0.001%, not 1%.

Q: Does it contain Astaxanthin?
A: Yes. Astaxanthin is explicitly listed in the supplied INCI, and Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract is also present separately.

Q: What percentage of Astaxanthin does it contain?
A: Astaxanthin is listed at 10,000 ppb, equivalent to approximately 0.001%.

Q: What is Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract?
A: It is a microalgae-derived extract known as a natural source associated with astaxanthin and is used in skincare primarily for antioxidant support.

Q: Does the mask contain Niacinamide?
A: Yes. Niacinamide is the fifth ingredient in the supplied INCI and helps support brightness, barrier function and a more even-looking complexion.

Q: Does it contain Glutathione?
A: Yes. Glutathione is listed in the supplied INCI and provides antioxidant support as part of the formula’s brightening-focused system.

Q: Does it contain Resveratrol?
A: Yes. Resveratrol is clearly listed and provides antioxidant skin care.

Q: Can it help dark spots?
A: The formula contains several ingredients associated with cosmetic brightening and antioxidant care, including Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, Astaxanthin and Glutathione, which may help dark spots appear less noticeable with consistent use.

Q: Does it remove hyperpigmentation permanently?
A: No. Cosmetic skincare can help improve the appearance of uneven pigmentation, but it cannot guarantee permanent removal and new discoloration can develop with sun exposure and other triggers.

Q: Can it treat melasma?
A: No. Melasma is a complex pigmentation condition, and this mask should not be considered a medical treatment. It may support a more even-looking complexion, but persistent melasma is best assessed by a dermatologist.

Q: Can it prevent melasma from returning?
A: No cosmetic mask can guarantee prevention of melasma. Consistent broad-spectrum sun protection is especially important for pigmentation-prone skin.

Q: Will it brighten my skin overnight?
A: Hydration can make the skin look fresher and more luminous by morning, but meaningful improvement in persistent discoloration generally requires consistent skincare rather than a single overnight application.

Q: Does it contain Hyaluronic Acid?
A: Yes. Sodium Hyaluronate, a form of Hyaluronic Acid, is listed and helps attract moisture to the skin.

Q: Does it contain Collagen?
A: Yes. Collagen Extract is listed in the supplied INCI.

Q: What does Collagen Extract do in the mask?
A: Topical Collagen primarily conditions and hydrates the skin’s surface, helping it feel softer and appear temporarily plumper. It does not replace natural dermal Collagen.

Q: Is the mask vegan?
A: Vegan status cannot be confirmed from the supplied INCI because Collagen Extract is present and its biological source is not specified.

Q: Is the mask fragrance-free?
A: No. Fragrance is listed in the supplied ingredient list.

Q: Does it contain essential oils?
A: No clearly identified aromatic essential oils are listed in the supplied INCI.

Q: Does it contain alcohol?
A: Ethanol and Alcohol Denat. are not listed in the supplied INCI.

Q: Does it contain Retinol or Retinal?
A: No Retinol, Retinal or other clearly identified retinoid is listed.

Q: Does it contain exfoliating AHA, BHA or PHA acids?
A: No clearly identified dedicated AHA, BHA or PHA exfoliant is listed in the supplied INCI.

Q: Is it really free of artificial pigment?
A: The supplied product information makes this claim, but the INCI contains Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Calcium Titanium Borosilicate and Tin Oxide, which can contribute to colour or optical effects. The exact meaning of the manufacturer’s “free of artificial pigment” statement therefore cannot be independently determined from the INCI alone.

Q: Why is the mask coloured?
A: Ingredients including Cyanocobalamin, Titanium Dioxide, Calcium Titanium Borosilicate, Tin Oxide and Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract may contribute to the product’s visual appearance, although the exact colouring system cannot be established from the INCI alone.

Q: Is it suitable for dry skin?
A: Yes. Glycerin, Glycereth-26 and Sodium Hyaluronate make the mask particularly relevant for skin experiencing dehydration and roughness.

Q: Is it suitable for oily skin?
A: Yes. Its hydration-focused formula can suit oily skin that is also dehydrated, provided the peel-off wrapping format is comfortable for your skin.

Q: Is it suitable for combination skin?
A: Yes. Combination skin can benefit from its hydration and brightening care, particularly when dullness and uneven tone are concerns.

Q: Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
A: The supplied information states that the product passed an irritation test, but Fragrance and a peel-off film-forming system are present. Highly sensitive or reactive skin should patch test before overnight use.

Q: Can acne-prone skin use it?
A: Acne-prone skin may use it if well tolerated. Niacinamide can support barrier and tone care, but the mask is not a medical acne treatment and should not be peeled aggressively over inflamed lesions.

Q: Can I apply it over active pimples?
A: Avoid peeling a film-forming mask directly over broken, picked or significantly inflamed blemishes because removal may irritate compromised skin.

Q: Can I use it every night?
A: Daily use is not necessarily required. Frequency can be adjusted according to skin tolerance and the manufacturer’s packaging instructions, particularly because repeated peel-off mask use may be too much for very sensitive skin.

Q: Can I use it with Retinol or Retinal?
A: There is no direct ingredient incompatibility, but if your retinoid makes the skin dry or sensitive, using a peel-off wrapping mask on the same evening may increase discomfort. Alternating them can be a better option for reactive skin.

Q: Can I use it with Vitamin C?
A: Yes. It can generally be used with Vitamin C, although sensitive skin may prefer to use a strong acidic Vitamin C product in the morning and the wrapping mask at night.

Q: Can I use it with AHA or BHA exfoliants?
A: It is possible, but applying a peel-off mask immediately after strong exfoliating acids may increase sensitivity. Alternating them is preferable if your skin is easily irritated.

Q: Should I apply moisturizer before the mask?
A: Use lightweight skincare underneath rather than a heavy cream that may interfere with film formation. If your skin is very dry, a light hydrating serum can be applied first.

Q: Can I use moisturizer after applying the wrapping mask?
A: The mask itself is intended to be the final overnight layer, so additional moisturizer on top is generally unnecessary and may prevent the film from setting properly.

Q: Should I avoid my eyebrows and hairline?
A: Yes. Keep peel-off masks away from the eyebrows, hairline and other areas with hair because removal can pull on individual hairs.

Q: Does the mask stain pillows?
A: Allow it to dry fully for approximately 20 minutes before going to bed. A completely formed film should reduce transfer, although contact with bedding can still vary depending on how thickly it was applied.

Q: Do I need sunscreen when using this mask?
A: Yes. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is especially important when your goal is to improve dark spots and uneven-looking pigmentation, as UV exposure can contribute to recurring discoloration.

Q: Can I use it during pregnancy?
A: No commonly avoided retinoid ingredient is listed in the supplied INCI. Anyone with pregnancy-specific medical concerns about Tranexamic Acid or other cosmetic ingredients should discuss their skincare routine with their doctor.

Q: Where can I buy Dr.Melaxin skincare in Cyprus?
A: You can find Dr.Melaxin TX Astaxanthin Overnight Wrapping Mask at Just Cosmetics, together with a curated selection of Korean Cosmetics in Cyprus.
