The replenishing overnight mask is designed to deliver a great deal of moisture to the skin, all the while soothing redness and bolstering the skin's natural barrier. The simple overnight mask is designed to be used after a moisturizer and can be rinsed off in the morning. Cica is becoming a popular ingredient for its immensely calming properties, especially for consumers who live in dense urban areas where pollution can become a factor in stressed-out skin. According to the brand, "Formulated with our exclusive Forest Yeast extract, Cica Sleeping Mask is more effective than traditional cica products."
