Aug 16 PRODUCT REVIEW: MAYSAMA BEAUTY GREEN ROOIBOS BRIGHTENING MASK – BEST ANTIOXIDANT MASK, BEST SELFCARE SUNDAY MASK FOR A BRIGHTER COMPLEXION

MAYSAMA BEAUTY | GREEN ROOIBOS BRIGHTENING MASK

I first featured Maysama Beauty’s new Green Rooibos Brightening Mask on my IG page on #skincarmasaturday — when I post a glimpse of new skincare product discoveries of the past week.

I then followed up on my YouTube channel in a video titled, I’m Getting #Selfcaresunday Lit! 🔥 Powering Up My Brightening With Maysama Beauty! You can still catch that video here.

Seriously, as one of the best brightening face masks, it makes for a real #selfcaresunday pampering treat.

Why not start out the week with a complexion that pops?!

What makes an ideal brightening facial mask? That’s easy! One that’s powered by effective skin brighteners — like Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid and Alpha Arbutin. And guess what! Maysama Beauty’s new Green Rooibos Brightening Mask is formulated with all three of them.

Don’t know Maysama Beauty? You may have seen my review of their silky-rich antioxidant treatment, the Green Rooibos Pressed Serum. You can catch it on the Skincarma Blog here.

Their inaugural skincare product, Green Rooibos Pressed Serum is powered by the antioxidant powerhouse Green Rooibos Tea Extract. Maysama’s silky antioxidant treatment has long been one of my go-to daily face serums — and is one of the best antioxidant serums for protecting skin against aging environmental damage.

Composed of an extraordinary 85% active ingredients, the brand’s Green Rooibos Pressed Serum incorporates 1.3% pharmaceutical grade Green Rooibos Extract, which according to the brand is an “active pharmaceutical ingredient”. Green rooibos is a remarkable substance. Not only does it contain potent antioxidant properties, it’s also an antibacterial and a source of natural AHA’s.

Maysama’s Green Rooibos Pressed Serum is a rich, pulpy serum that feels great and melts instantly into the skin, making it easy to layer into an existing skincare routine to boost its pro-skin health benefits.

So I’m really excited that Maysama recently introduced their second-ever product — the antioxidant-powered Green Rooibos Brightening Mask.

In addition to Green Rooibos Extract, the brand’s Green Rooibos Brightening Mask is infused with a legitimate brightening complex that comprises 4% Niacinamide, 3% Tranexamic Acid and 2% Alpha Arbutin. For serious brightening, it doesn’t get better than that!

What Are Antioxidants and What Do Antioxidants Do for Skin?

Antioxidants possess numerous benefits for the skin, including preventing skin damage and multiple signs of aging. There’s an excellent article from the experts on the Paula’s Choice Research Team titled, How Antioxidants Fight the Signs of Aging that you can catch here. This is what I found most insightful:

Antioxidants for Skin Benefits
Antioxidants play a unique role when it comes to diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Years of environmental damage (including unprotected sun exposure—one more reason to apply that broad-spectrum sunscreen!) slowly chip away at skin’s natural ability to look and feel healthy. As this damage builds up, skin gradually loses its ability to recover and bounce back as it once did. It’s not an exaggeration to say that after years of damage, skin becomes overwhelmed, and its “look young systems” begin to slow down.
Antioxidants in skin care step in to help shield skin’s surface from further deterioration by calming stressed skin and defending against the visible effects of pollution —something all of us encounter on a daily basis.
What happens as a result of applying antioxidants to your face is truly impressive: Skin’s appearance begins to turn around! It regains a firmer feel and more even skin tone—and those wrinkles you’re probably not fond of will visibly soften.

The Green Rooibos Brightening Mask has a thick, refreshing gel-like texture that glides easily onto the skin and is a pleasure to use on #selfcaresunday, #maskingmonday — or any time you wanna get that complexion lit!
