Proactiv Vitamin C Resurfacing Face Mask — 1.7 oz | Targets Post‑Acne Dark Marks & Texture

This dermatologist-developed mask combines tranexamic acid, gluconolactone, turmeric root extract, and stabilized vitamin C to help address hyperpigmentation and texture concerns while remaining non-greasy and non-comedogenic. Formulated for acne-prone skin and suitable for oily, dry, combination, normal, and sensitive types, it can be used as a targeted boost alongside Proactiv routines or as a weekly resurfacing treatment.

How does this mask help with post-acne dark marks and hyperpigmentation?

The formula includes ingredients that target uneven tone and help brighten dull areas without overly stripping the skin. Tranexamic acid and vitamin C support a more even-looking complexion, while gluconolactone gently resurfaces to reduce the visibility of spots over time.

• Tranexamic acid works to address discoloration and reduce the look of dark marks.
• Stabilized vitamin C helps brighten and improve overall radiance.
• Gluconolactone offers gentle exfoliation for smoother texture.
• Turmeric root extract soothes and helps reduce visible redness.

How should I add this mask into my acne care routine?

Start with a sensitivity test by applying sparingly to one or two small areas for three days. After confirming tolerance, cleanse thoroughly and apply a thin layer to the affected areas one to three times daily—absorption is improved on slightly damp skin—then adjust frequency if dryness or peeling occurs.

• Perform a patch test for the first three days to check sensitivity.
• Apply to clean skin; a thin layer is sufficient for results.
• Begin with once daily, then increase to two or three times if tolerated.
• Reduce frequency if you experience excessive dryness or irritation.

What skin types and concerns is this mask suitable for?

Although developed with acne-prone skin in mind, the non-comedogenic, non-greasy formula is suitable for all common skin types, including sensitive. It’s formulated to support blemish control while aiming to smooth texture and diminish the look of spots, so it fits as a corrective step for scarring, discoloration, and uneven skin surface.

• Works for oily, dry, combination, normal, and sensitive skin types.
• Designed to complement Proactiv 3‑step acne routines as a targeted boost.
• Non-comedogenic to avoid clogging pores in acne-prone skin.
• Non-greasy finish so it layers comfortably under other products.

What precautions and application tips should I know?

Because active resurfacing ingredients can increase sensitivity, follow the recommended patch test and introduce the mask gradually. If you experience bothersome dryness or peeling, reduce use and consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance.

• Patch test for three days before regular use to monitor tolerance.
• Apply to slightly damp skin for better absorption.
• Cut back to once daily or every other day if irritation occurs.
• Stop use and seek professional advice if severe irritation develops.

Who is this for: This 1.7 oz Proactiv mask is for people with acne-prone or spot-prone skin seeking a targeted resurfacing and brightening step to reduce the look of post-acne dark marks, uneven tone, and rough texture. It’s a practical addition for those already using Proactiv regimens or anyone wanting a non-greasy, dermatologist-developed mask that layers well with daily skincare.
