Afrodite Beauty Salon in Alta has been working with our products for a long time, and here are their experiences with using our Shea Hydration Mask . All the ladies who work there constantly get dry skin due to the climate in the winter in Alta. It is very dry and very cold.

What happens to the skin when the weather is dry and cold is that the dry air draws moisture out of the skin. The moisture is actually pulled out of the skin and the skin feels tight, dry and has a rougher texture.

Moisture balance measurement

Afrodite Beauty Salon has great tools for skin care, they also have a machine that measures the moisture balance in the skin. They had themselves tested whether the moisturizing mask actually works on everyone who works there (8 employees) and they all had varying degrees of dry and unbalanced skin. They used the Shea Hydration Mask as a night mask, they slept with it on, and the next day the moisture level and balance were at a perfect level! Everyone at Afrodite is very excited and the moisturizing mask has become a good bestseller with them.

Why moisture masks work

The reason why the moisturizing mask actually works and penetrates so deeply into the skin that it makes a difference is because the mask is formulated with fruit acids from apples that we formulate with both butter and oil from shea as well as other nutritious oils. In this way, we get an active mask that penetrates deep into the skin. And you don't just see a difference on the moisture scale, you also see clear results on the facial skin. It becomes softer, the texture is evened out and the skin gets a fresh glow. The skin simply looks more moisturized.

Do you have dry and unbalanced skin now in the winter cold?

Use Shea Hydration Mask about every other night as a night cream. Start by cleansing your skin completely and apply the mask as if it were a cream. The next morning, take care of your skin as usual. You will definitely notice a big difference when you use the moisturizing mask regularly! You can also combine this mask with a few drops of our Argan Night Serum for extra effect. Then you first take 3-4 drops of the night serum, wait 1 minute and then apply the moisturizing mask.
