Let’s Talk About Face Masks
Not the “slap-it-on-and-scroll” kind — the ones that actually do something.
The ones that feel like a deep breath for skin that’s had… a week.
When your barrier’s tired, flaky, or just plain over it, a mask can be more than a treat — it can be therapy.
That’s where Zen Collagen Mask comes in: a barrier-loving, bounce-restoring cream treatment designed to calm, nourish, and rebuild.
Think of it as a recovery ritual — a mask that doubles as a moisturiser when your skin needs extra kindness.
What Makes Zen… Zen?
Every ingredient in Zen is hand-picked to bring the calm. No trend fillers, no fluff — just barrier-strengthening, collagen-boosting, and hydration-locking heroes your skin will thank you for.
Water (Aqua)
Simple, yes. But essential. Water is the delivery system that allows all the good stuff to be evenly spread and absorbed — think of it as the base that carries the magic.
Shea Butter (Butyrospermum Parkii)
Rich in fatty acids, this buttery-soft hydrator melts into the skin, repairing dryness and protecting against moisture loss. Think: comfort in cream form.
Glycerin
One of skincare’s OG heroes. Glycerin pulls water into your skin like a magnet, keeping things juicy, plump, and perfectly hydrated.
Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil)
A balancing wonder. This skin-mimicking oil delivers lightweight moisture, regulates sebum, and calms sensitivity without clogging pores.
Rosehip Oil
Bursting with vitamins and essential fatty acids, Rosehip supports regeneration, reduces the look of scars, and promotes an even, radiant tone.
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride & Dimethicone
Silky emollients that soften and smooth while locking in moisture — without heaviness or pore-clogging. These give Zen its velvety, spreadable texture.
Cetearyl Alcohol
Not your average “alcohol”! This fatty alcohol conditions and stabilizes the formula, adding a creamy texture that feels luxurious on skin.
Saccharide Isomerate
A plant-derived sugar complex that bonds to your skin and hydrates it for up to 72 hours. It's like a long-lasting drink for dehydrated skin — no stickiness, no drama.
Butylene Glycol
A humectant multitasker that helps ingredients penetrate better while delivering lightweight hydration — smooth, non-greasy, and essential for that dewy finish.
Glycol Distearate
Adds a soft, pearly finish while acting as an emollient that improves the luxurious feel of the cream. Think silky-smooth perfection.
Dl-Alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate
A stable form of Vitamin E that helps shield skin from environmental stressors while supporting barrier repair and softness.
Sunflower Seed Oil (Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil)
Lightweight and rich in vitamin E, this oil helps smooth, soften, and reinforce the skin’s natural barrier without feeling greasy.
Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract
A soothing antioxidant powerhouse. Green tea calms irritation, protects against free radical damage, and helps reduce redness — perfect for post-stress skin.
Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid)
The moisture magnet. This smaller-molecule form of hyaluronic acid penetrates deeper, plumping the skin and holding onto hydration like your favourite silk robe holds onto luxe.
Portulaca Oleracea (Purslane) Extract
Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich, this underrated plant extract helps soothe sensitive skin and reduce reactivity. A quiet achiever.
Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen
Your skin’s elasticity booster. Marine collagen helps reduce the look of fine lines and supports that supple, bouncy skin feel. Especially great for skin that feels depleted or tired.
Phenoxyethanol & Caprylyl Glycol
A gentle preservative system that keeps your formula fresh and stable while maintaining skin compatibility. No harshness here — just safe, reliable protection.
Citric Acid & Sodium Citrate
pH-balancers that help keep your formula skin-friendly and stable. Think of them as the behind-the-scenes pros making sure Zen stays gentle yet effective.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
The classic antioxidant. Tocopherol nourishes, protects, and reinforces the skin barrier, teaming up with other ingredients to shield your skin from environmental stress.
Why a Cream Mask — and Not Just a Moisturiser?
Clay masks detox; cream masks rebuild.
They flood the skin with emollients and humectants that restore what over-exfoliation, stress, or weather stripped away.
But here’s the secret: when your barrier is truly compromised — tight, flaky, reactive — Zen can absolutely step in as your moisturiser.
Think of it as “recovery-mode skincare.”
Use it as:
-
A 15–20 minute mask for an instant surge of calm and softness
-
Or as an overnight or daily cream when your skin’s tolerance is low and you need maximum comfort
Because barrier repair doesn’t clock out after 20 minutes.
How to Use Zen
After cleansing, apply a thick, even layer to clean, dry skin.
Let it sit for 15–20 minutes — or overnight if you’re feeling extra indulgent.
Rinse off with warm water or remove with a soft cloth.
Follow with your usual skincare to lock it all in.
Pro tip: Use 1–2 times a week, or anytime your skin feels dull, tight, or irritated.
Zen doubles as a daily moisturiser for those dry, sensitive days when your barrier is begging for a little extra kindness.

In Summary...
Zen Collagen Mask is more than a hydrating mask — it’s barrier therapy in a jar.
A formula that flexes between treatment and moisturiser, meeting your skin exactly where it’s at.
Because the goal isn’t to do more — it’s to help your skin do what it already knows how to do: repair, balance, and thrive.
