“Extracts of Liquorice and Lemon naturally help to stimulate cell turnover, alleviating the appearance of dark spots and discolouration, while Jojoba Seed Oil seeks to sooth and hydrate to restore an optimum balance.”
This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
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. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
glycerin, glucose.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: simmondsia chinensis seed oil, caprylyl glycol.

“Extracts of Liquorice and Lemon naturally help to stimulate cell turnover, alleviating the appearance of dark spots and discolouration, while Jojoba Seed Oil seeks to sooth and hydrate to restore an optimum balance.”
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.
ExfoliationNo ingredient credited for this claimNot delivered
“Brighten up dull, lacklustre skin with the Erno Laszlo White Marble Face Mask; an innovative, dual-phase treatment that peels away to reveal a revitalised and radiant complexion.”
This product does not contain effective exfoliating ingredients. It might be able to deliver physical exfoliation, that is scrub off some of the dead cells on the surface of the skin. We do not recommend physical exfoliation, because it is not uniform (some bits of skin can get exfoliated too much while others not at all). It can also traumatize the skin and aggrevate acne and other skin conditions.
