Our water-less, preservative-free and fragrance-free Cleansing & Balancing Face Mask comes in an innovative powder-to-gel formula, that mixes with water to form a light gel. The Mask exfoliates, soothes and hydrates sensitive and problem skin without drying - skin will be left feeling soft, calm, clean and balanced. 

The Mask is not clay-based but is instead formulated in base of potato starch, which gives the Mask its gel-texture, and is a great choice for anyone dealing with both sensitisation and e.g. acne, rosacea, POD, congestion and oiliness. 

The Mask contains sea salt for gentle exfoliation, immunity-boosting ReConnecting Nature extract from the Finnish forest (so-called "forest dust"), microbiome-balancing and hydrating probiotic Finnish oat xylitol and Finnish fireweed extract.

Did you know: Fireweed is a true gift for sensitive and problem skin, with its soothing, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-oxidative and skin-balancing properties. The exctract has been developed by our chemist Jaana, as part of her PhD research. 

Sodium carboxymethyl Starch, Maris Sal, Humus Extract, Epilobium Angustifolium Extract, Xylitol

Sodium carboxymethyl Starch

Thickener. Modified potato starch is the gelling agent responsible for the Mask's pwder-to-gel formula.

Maris Sal

Humectant and skin conditioning. Sea salt. Lightly exfoliates and moisturises skin.

Humus Extract

Conditioning. ReConnecting Nature extract. Finnish "Forest Dust". The ReConnecting Nature extract is scientifically proven to boost immunity and is the result of 20 years of research by a team of biochemists from leading Finnish universities. It's dermatologically and tolerance tested and is suitable for all skin types. It promotes skin integrity for an enhanced skin barrier function, faster regeneration and repair, reduces skin redness and irritation and increases levels of age-defying collagen.

Epilobium Angustifolium Extract

Skin conditioning. Fireweed extract. A soothing, balancing, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inlammatory and anti-oxidative powder made from the Finnish fireweed plant. Our chemist Jaana developed the extract as part of her PhD research.

Xylitol

Humectant and skin conditioning. Xylitol is a sugar alcohol and moisturises and conditions skin, whilst possessing anti-bacterial properties. There is some interesting research that suggests xylitol has the ability to inhibit bacterial biofilm on skin, which in turn may be the cause of many skin issues. The one we use is made in Finland from Finnish oats, and has probiotic properties.

1. Mix 1/2 tsp powder mask with 4 tsp water in a small bowl and stir to a gel. If the gel is dry, mix in a a small amount of water,

2. Apply to clean skin for 10 minutes and rinse off.

Tip 1: Itchy scalp or scalp-acne? Mix in the tiniest amount of the mask into you shampoo. Both the fireweed and xylitol are great for fighting dandruff.

Laponie Customer Story

Iida-Maria - Dry skin and adult acne

After six weeks, it seemed that Iida-Maria's skin was still searching for balance. Therefore, the skincare routine was modified and Softening Face Oil was added to it, and serums were left out of daily use for a while, except for the occasional use of the Purifying serum on inflamed areas.

Ruusufinni-iholleni ainoa sopiva naamio

Helposti tukkeutuvalle ja erittäin reagoivalle iholle löytyi vihdoin ja viimein sopiva tuote.

Jaana Timonen
Hydrating Face Mask & Cream

Luottotuotteeni jo pari vuotta niin kotona kuin reissussakin. Vuoden ajasta riippumatta ihon pintakuivuuteen (kosteuden puute) ennen meikkiä enimmät tarpeen mukaan poistaen kuin kuivaan ihoonkin sekä saunaan suojaamaan ihoa. Yöllä käytän tätä talvella yövoiteen asemesta useimpina öinä, kesällä lähinnä tarpeeseen. Annan tätä mielelläni ystävillekin.

Jenni Fröberg

Vaatimattomalta tuntuva mutta erinomaisesti toimiva naamio. Rauhoittaa ja puhdistaa, toimii moneen. Erittäin riittoisaa, itselläni riittää reilu puolikas annos hyvin koko kasvoille. Aion ostaa myös jatkossa.
