Rael Debuts Two Complexion-Improving and Soothing Hydrogel Masks
Rael has introduced two new hydrogel masks — the Cryo Soothing Hydrogel Mask and the Glutathione + Vitamin C Brightening Hydrogel Mask. Both products are now available at Ulta Beauty stores and on the brand’s website.
Both the Cryo Soothing Hydrogel Mask and the Glutathione + Vitamin C Brightening Hydrogel Mask represent the company’s effort to bring advanced Korean skincare technology to the American mass market. The formulas combine clinical-grade ingredients with a user-friendly, single-step application. The Cryo Soothing Hydrogel Mask, for example, delivers cooling and de-puffing effects through cross-linked hyaluronic acid, peptides, and mushroom extract, and it features a color-changing sheet that turns from white to transparent as the serum absorbs. The Glutathione mask pairs vitamin C and tranexamic acid, shifting from light yellow to clear as its essence penetrates the skin. Both masks are built on the brand’s anti-slip grip material.
