[ Review ] : Real Barrier Extreme Cream Mask

Product Description
A barrier care mask enriched with extreme cream essence to increase skin hydration and elasticity.  The silky micro fiber sheets help transfer Extreme Cream to the face to provide optimum moisturization. This multi-function mask also helps improve skins’ elasticity.

Just the cream in the name makes me want to try out these masks so when I chanced upon them in Korea, I purchased them instantly - a sheet of Real Barrier Extreme Cream Mask and a sheet of Aqua Soothing Ampoule Mask.

Made in Korea, Real Barrier refers to
Real Technology : MLE ®, a proprietary skin barrier technology, firmly cares for the weakened skin barrier of Malta Cross®, which reproduces ingredients and structures similar to real skin lipids.
Real Solution : real skin solution with a focus on weakening the skin barrier , which is the root cause of all skin diseases.
Real Safety : It is a prescription that minimizes harmful ingredients in the skin, so it can be used with confidence, and it solves skin problems with safe efficacy.

Real Barrier's real skin barrier comes from MLE ® , a proprietary skin barrier technology. MLE® (Multi Lamelllar Emulsion) technology is a proprietary neo-palm skin barrier technology that enhances the intrinsic protection of skin by strengthening damaged skin barriers by reproducing the most similar healthy skin structure.

The core formula of Real Barrier that enhances the skin barrier function is by reproducing ingredients and structures similar to real skin lipids. Skin lipid components such as ceramide, cholesterol, and fatty acids are composed of optimal proportions, which are similar to actual skin components, and MLE® Technology rebuilds the skin-like structure and strengthens weakened skin barrier.

Packaging, Scent and Texture

The packaging of Real Barrier Extreme Cream Mask has a clinical vibe to it, with its white and blue colours which reminds one of medical professionals.

The thin and soft silky micro-fiber material is comfortable and has good adherence and fitting, however, the fragrance came across as pretty strong.

Performance and Ingredients

After a 20 minute masking session, my skin is left feeling soft, smooth, clear and fresh, on top of being soothed and calmed. Redness has subsided slightly although still apparent on the brows and broken capillaries on the sides of my nose.

In terms of ingredients, this paraben free mask is infused with Panthenol to calm, Madecassoside to moisturize and Allantoin to soothe ( also known as 3-Calming Complex of Panthenol, Madecassoside, and Allantoin to calm and soothe irritated skin ). It is also enriched with dual Ceramides and Hyaluronic Acid which is known to bind water to the skin as well as Vitamin E to help protect against environmental pollutants.
