Medicube - Kojic Acid Turmeric Overnight Wrapping Mask (75ml)

Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Night Wrapping Mask is an overnight peel-off sleeping mask designed to improve the appearance of dark spots, uneven tone, dullness, rough texture, and fine dehydration lines. Formulated with Kojic Acid, Turmeric Root Extract, Niacinamide, Ascorbic Acid, Retinol, Collagen Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Adenosine, and moisture-binding ingredients, it forms a flexible wrapping layer that helps maintain hydration throughout the night for smoother, plumper, and more radiant-looking skin by morning.

• Targets visible dark spots: The brightening ingredients support a clearer, more even-looking complexion with consistent use.
• Provides overnight hydration: Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glyceryl Glucoside, Glucose, and Propanediol help maintain moisture beneath the wrapping film.
• Supports smoother-looking texture: Hydrating ingredients and the overnight film help soften roughness and fine lines caused by dehydration.
• Improves visible radiance: Turmeric Root Extract, Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and moisture-rich ingredients help tired-looking skin appear fresher and more luminous.
• Supports skin elasticity: Retinol, Adenosine, Collagen Extract, and hydration help promote a firmer, more supple-looking complexion.
• Creates a protective wrapping layer: Polyvinyl Alcohol forms a peelable film that helps keep the skincare applied underneath in place overnight.
• Offers flexible removal: The dried mask can be gently peeled away or thoroughly rinsed with lukewarm water the following morning.
