Troubleshooting

Masque feels too tight or uncomfortable while drying

You may have applied the layer too thickly. Try a thinner layer next time. If it's still uncomfortable, rinse off sooner than the recommended 10-15 minutes.

Skin feels excessively dry after use

Reduce the frequency of application. Ensure you are applying a moisturizer suitable for your skin type after rinsing off the masque.

Product seems difficult to spread evenly

Ensure your skin is slightly damp or use a clean brush for application to achieve a smoother, more even coating.

Masque leaves a slight green tint

This is normal due to the masque's ingredients. It should rinse off completely with water. Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly.
