Meet the SOME BY MI Retinol Intense Reactivating Mask, your new secret weapon against signs of aging. This powerful sheet mask delivers a concentrated dose of anti-aging ingredients to smooth fine lines, refine texture, and restore your skin’s youthful bounce—all in just 20 minutes.

Why We Love It

• Targets Aging from All Angles: Visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity.
• Refines Skin Texture: Helps minimize the look of pores and smooths out rough patches for a baby-soft feel.
• Beginner-Friendly Retinol: Formulated with soothing ingredients to deliver powerful results with minimal irritation.

Key Ingredients Decoded

This mask is powered by a triple-threat of anti-aging heroes:

• Retinol & Retinal: The gold-standard ingredients for skin renewal. They speed up cell turnover to fade lines and improve firmness.
• Bakuchiol: A 100% plant-based ingredient that works like retinol to improve skin texture and elasticity, but is known for being extra gentle.
• Niacinamide & Soothing Botanicals: Niacinamide brightens and strengthens, while Centella, Tea Tree, and Mugwort calm the skin to prevent irritation.

How to Use

Unlock your skin’s potential with these simple steps. For PM use only!

1. Start with a clean, toned face.
2. Carefully unfold the mask and place it evenly on your skin, avoiding the eye and mouth areas.
3. Relax and leave it on for 10-20 minutes. Don’t leave it on longer!
4. Remove the mask and gently pat the remaining essence into your skin until fully absorbed. Follow with your favorite moisturizer.

Frequency: If you’re new to retinol, start by using this mask 1-2 times per week. You can gradually increase usage as your skin adapts.

Expert Tips: Your Retinol Cheat Sheet

To get the best results and keep your skin happy, follow these simple rules.

The Dream Team (What to Pair It With)

• ✅ Barrier-Boosting Moisturizer: Always follow up with a cream rich in ceramides or panthenol to keep your skin barrier strong and hydrated.
• ✅ Hydrating Serums: Apply a hyaluronic acid serum before the mask for an extra plumping effect.
• ✅ Sunscreen (The Next Morning): This is non-negotiable. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every single day, as retinol makes your skin more sensitive to the sun.

Rules of the Game (What to Avoid)

• ❌ Don’t Mix with Other Actives: On the nights you use this mask, skip any products with Vitamin C, AHAs (like glycolic acid), or BHAs (like salicylic acid).
• ❌ Listen to Your Skin: If you experience any irritation, reduce the frequency of use. A little tingling can be normal, but redness or peeling means you should give your skin a break.

Q&A: What You’re Asking

Is the SOME BY MI Retinol Mask good for acne and pores?

Absolutely. Retinol is fantastic for acne-prone skin because it helps regulate cell turnover, preventing dead skin cells from clogging pores. This process also helps make enlarged pores appear smaller and more refined over time.

Can I use this if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, but with caution. This mask is formulated with Bakuchiol and soothing ingredients to be gentler than many retinol products. However, we always recommend doing a patch test first. Start by using it just once a week and see how your skin reacts before increasing the frequency.
