Bright Mask - a weekly treatment to enhance the skin renewal program for those treating issues like melasma, menopausal skin problems, sun damage and lack-luster dry skin.

Instead, the terms "brighten, brightening" was coined by the industry in effort to avoid confusion and injury! For deeply lined aging skin types, this can be used more than once a week but test it out first and just see how your own face responds to frequent use. Can be used on face, neck, hands and decolletages for up to 30 minutes before bathing or showering to remove. For face only, leave on 15-20 minutes and remove with warm, damp towel - gently wiping and rinsing til all traces of mask are off and then follow quickly with your other Bright products before the moisture evaporates.
