MoisturizingGlucose, Allantoin + 2 moreWorks
“Blended with antioxidant-rich Vitamin C derivatives and allantoin, this modeling mask offers intensive moisture while also calming and boosting skin elasticity, perfect for dry, tired and dull skin.”
This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": allantoin, sodium hyaluronate.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).
Evens skin toneGlycyrrhiza glabra root extract, Ascorbic acidNot delivered
“Infused with antioxidant such as Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) and Allantoin, it revitalized stressed, tired skin and brightens up dull skin tone.”
This product contains ingredients (glycyrrhiza glabra root extract) that could help reduce hyperpigmentation (for example, post-acne marks or age spots) in theory, but there is not enough evidence that they actually work.

Product summary
"Anskin - Original Vitamin-C Modeling Mask" could be helpful for: Moisturizing, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- This product also contains Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid). It can be an effective active for anti-aging and evening out the skin tone, but in this product it is used for stabilizing other ingredients in the formulation. In this concentration (1.70% - 2.60%) it cannot have a noticeable benefit for the skin.
- In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.10% - 1.70%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
- Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 1.10% - 1.70% and allantoin 1.10% - 1.70%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
Price
The product retails from 22.20$ up to 38.40$ in the United States.
