Ukrainian beauty brand WildLife offers a great selection of alginate face masks, also known as algae masks or peel-off masks. Based on alginic acid obtained from kelp, they are enriched with other natural ingredients for a better effect. For example, WildLife face masks for oily and problem skin contain ingredients that regulate sebum secretion and prevent greasy shine and acne.
There are several skin types, such as normal, dry, oily, combination, and problem. Each skin type has its peculiarities and typical problems. For example, oily skin is usually characterized by enlarged pores, dull or shiny complexion, blackheads and pimples.
Many women with oily skin think that they can make their skin look and feel better by using more alcohol-based skincare products and less creams, lotions and other moisturisers. Unfortunately, this usually doesn’t help. Their skin becomes dehydrated, but shiny complexion, enlarged pores and blemishes don’t go away.
The thing is, oily skin needs moisture just like any other skin type. When you use skincare products which strip it off moisture, your skin begins to produce more sebum to make up for moisture loss. That’s why high-quality skincare products for oily and problem skin should be able to cope with shiny complexion and blemishes without causing dehydration.
Alginate masks by WildLife help to lock in moisture and simultaneously combat the most common oily skin problems. They unclog and tighten pores, improve complexion, eliminate blackheads and acne, prevent inflammation, regulate sebum secretion, and make the skin look fresh and glowing.
Key ingredient contained in alginate masks is alginic acid, also known as alginate. It is a polysaccharide obtained from the cell walls of brown algae, such as kelp. Alginate absorbs water very quickly and then plastifies, which makes it perfect for peel-off facial masks. The effect of alginate in WildLife masks is complemented and enhanced by other natural ingredients, such as herbal extracts, enzymes, proteins, etc.
The brand’s Stabilizing Alginate Mask with Elderberry Extract is specifically designed to take care of oily and problem skin. It has a visible effect after just one use. Key ingredients contained in the mask are alginate, diatomaceous earth, and elderberry extract.
The product has a pronounced antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effect. Its active ingredients help to regulate sebum secretion and therefore prevent shiny complexion and clogged pores. The mask also helps to get rid of blackheads and pimples, prevents inflammation, and soothes irritated skin. Elderberry extract restores natural skin tone and prevents acne scars.
Another mask for oily and problem skin offered by WildLife is Whitening Alginate Mask with Shiitake. One of its key ingredients is shiitake mushroom extract valued for its whitening effect.
The product improves complexion, prevents hyperpigmentation and acne scars, helps to get rid of blemishes, and has a matte effect. It also contains ingredients that make the skin softer and smoother, improve skin elasticity and flexibility, help to keep the skin hydrated, and make it look fresh and radiant. The mask is enriched with tocopherol (vitamin E) that has antioxidant properties. It neutralises free radicals and helps to prevent premature skin ageing.
As we’ve already mentioned above, alginate masks have the ability to plastify. This means that you should prepare them right before use and apply as soon as possible because alginate begins to jellify in about 5 minutes.
