Skin that feels tight by lunchtime?
Air-con at work, the heat pump at home, a cold southerly on the way in. By the afternoon your skin feels tight and your moisturiser seems to have vanished.
Why hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid holds water at the surface of your skin, like a sponge. Here it's joined by niacinamide, collagen extract and vitamin E, so skin is left feeling like it's had a long drink. This jar also contains retinol, kojic acid and arbutin, so patch test first and wear sunscreen the next day. Like every Omorfia formula, it mixes, sets and peels the same way.
What you'll notice:
- Comfortable, not tight, the moment you peel
- A plumper, dewy look straight after
- A smooth base for moisturiser and makeup
Ingredients
Patch test first. Hyaluronic Acid contains retinol, kojic acid and arbutin, so wear sunscreen the day after using it, and don't use it on the same day as other retinoids or exfoliating acids. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your doctor first.

How to use it
- Cleanse your face and neck.
- Stir 3 level tablespoons of powder into 2 tablespoons of cool water until smooth, like thick yoghurt.
- Smooth it on thickly with the flat end of the spatula straight away, keeping it away from your eyes, eyebrows, lips and hairline.
- Lie back for 15 to 20 minutes while it sets into jelly.
- Peel off in one piece from the jaw upward, then rinse.
Put the used mask in the bin, not down the drain. One to three times a week suits most people. More detail in how to use a jelly mask.
