Upgrade Your At-Home Routine With These Microcurrent Face Masks

These high-tech masks penetrate 6x deeper than regular masks!

Dec 3, 2021

If you want to take your skincare routine up a notch but are too lazy for a long-winded routine, one of the easiest ways to do so is to put on a face mask and just chill. Infused with a concentrated amount of nutrients and hydrators in a light serum formula, a face mask (a.k.a. sheet mask) works by acting as an impermeable occlusive barrier, allowing skin-saving ingredients to penetrate your skin instead of evaporating out. Plus, they’re made for self-care: Wet, cool, and usually dripping out of the package, they’re designed to feel soothing on skin, giving a relaxing beauty experience.

But did you know that there’s a new wave of face masks that can take your weekly masking a step further?

Hello, high-tech face masks

Trust us: You’ll want to swap your regular face masks for the new microcurrent face masks hailing from Asia’s skincare capital, South Korea, no less. These innovative masks are similar to your typical sheet masks but with an additional microcurrent layer that helps nourishing formulas penetrate six times deeper than the regular face mask. Six times!

Through microcurrent technology, active ingredients can now easily be delivered to the deepest layer of skin without professional tools and procedures, such as microneedling. This makes it perfect for anyone who would like to keep their skin tight and taut at home. The best part? It’s absolutely pain-free.

Dr. Franz Dual Face Masks, available at Bella Pelle, have an award-winning Tissue X® microcurrent technology that harnesses the power of water to create tiny, rejuvenating waves across your face, opening up your pores and allowing the formulas to be absorbed well by skin. Inspired by the ocean, the technology can be likened to the process of ions being exchanged as water goes from ocean (salt) to river (fresh) water, creating the natural energy that powers their Dual Microcurrent masks.

Choose your mask

Currently, Bella Pelle carries two variants. The bestselling Dr. Franz Microcurrent Dual Face Mask (P2,800 for a pack of two) is hailed as an at-home face lift, packed with anti-aging ingredients and clinically proven to tighten skin, even out your skin tone, and visibly reduce the signs of aging.

Its formula contains sodium hyaluronate and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate to hydrate skin while boosting collagen production; ceramide NP to provide a protective layer that limits moisture loss and protects against damage from pollutants and other environmental stressors; xylitol extract complex to improve hydration; and 10 different vitamins that provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The results are best seen one to two days after using the mask—skin is visibly glowing and younger-looking!

Meanwhile, those with tired, dull, and uneven complexions will love the Dr. Franz Brightening Dual Face Mask (P2,800 for a pack of two).

It contains probiotics and prebiotics to strengthen the skin barrier and improve circulation, elasticity, and cell turnover; as well as glutathione to brighten the skin by reducing the appearance of dark spots and uneven tone. Bonus: It also has super lower molecular hyaluronic acid that acts like a sponge to attract and retain moisture for a healthy, dewy finish.

How to use

Having your own microcurrent facial-slash-facelift at home is just as easy as putting your favorite face masks on. Simply apply the Enriching Mask directly on clean, dry skin. This layer holds all the nutrients that you want your complexion to absorb. Next, take the Empowering Mask and add the Boosting Essence to the backside of each ion cell. This activates the microcurrent technology. Layer the Empowering Mask on top of the Enriching Mask and relax; it’ll do all the work for you. You may feel a slight tingling sensation—that’s just the microcurrent technology hard at work. After 25 minutes, you’re done!
