In partnership with cosmetic scientist Sarang Kim, Ceramiracle developed the FIRST LIGHT The Reboot Mask. Although the mask treatment is made with a base of [clay and black volcanic sand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-tomato-clay-mask), it "conditions and nourishes the skin just like a [Korean sheet mask](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collagen-hydrogel-mask)." On top of this, the mask is also said to be beneficial for "resetting" the skin and returning it to a fresh and clean state.

In terms of ingredients, the FIRST LIGHT The Reboot Mask is powered by a BFE (BioFerment Essence) complex that is formulated from three Korean skincare staples: rice, ginseng, and mugwort. This unique combination of ingredients was actually inspired by an ancient recipe for ginseng wine that dates back to 18 BC and was originally used to treat and [cleanse dry skin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmettes-rosy-glow-mask).
