How to Use Calming Face Mask
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this mask actually help with dry or stressed skin?
Yes — hyaluronic acid draws deep moisture into the skin and holds it there, while double aloe vera (juice and gel) soothes and hydrates. Panthenol conditions and strengthens the skin barrier, and Vitamin E adds antioxidant protection, making this a strong choice for dry, stressed, or sensitive skin.
Is this mask suitable for sensitive or aging skin?
Yes — the gel base is built on pure lavender flower water with no synthetic fragrance, and every active ingredient is chosen for gentleness. It's well suited to dry, sensitive, or aging skin that needs extra hydration and barrier support.
How do I use this mask — overnight or as a quick treatment?
Both work well. Apply as a leave-on overnight mask for deep, prolonged hydration, or use it as a 15-minute treatment mask when your skin needs a quick refresh.
Can I use this with your other skincare products?
Yes — this mask fits naturally into a full routine. Use it after our Lavender Aloe Vera Face Scrub to lock in extra hydration once skin has been gently exfoliated, or apply it on nights you skip the scrub for a lighter routine.
Where is this mask made?
Made in small batches in New Zealand by Lavender Backyard Garden®, built on a base of pure lavender flower water — the natural byproduct of steam distilling Lavandula x Intermedia on our Waikato farm.
Is this mask free from synthetic fragrance and fillers?
Yes — the entire mask is built on pure lavender flower water rather than a synthetic base, with no added fragrance. Every active ingredient earns its place for hydration or skin support, with nothing included just as filler.
