Good to know

• Fragrance-free according to Abib
• V-Label vegan approved according to Abib; collagen is made by fermenting yeast
• No retinoid and no exfoliating acids

Is the collagen really vegan?

Abib say the collagen is made by fermenting yeast, not taken from animals, and that the mask is V-Label approved. On the ingredient list it appears under the standard name "collagen extract", so its vegan status rests on Abib's statement and the V-Label approval.

Will it firm my skin?

Not lastingly. Hydration gives a plumper, bouncier look for the day, and the peptide is a minor ingredient. We chose it for hydration and glow, not firming.

Does 100,005 ppm mean it is 10% collagen?

Abib state 100,005 ppm of fermented vegan collagen. We treat that as a brand-stated figure and do not infer the concentration of pure collagen from the ingredient list. Either way, collagen in skincare works as a surface hydrator; it does not add to your skin's own collagen.

Can sensitive skin use it?

Often, yes. Abib describe it as fragrance-free, and there is no retinoid, exfoliating acid or essential oil listed. As with any new mask, patch test first if your skin reacts easily.

Can oily skin use it?

Yes, especially if your skin is oily but dehydrated. There are no oils in the ingredient list, and it leaves skin dewy rather than sticky. Follow with a light moisturiser.

How is it different from the Biodance Hydro Cera-nol mask?

This is a 20 to 30 minute hydration and glow mask. The Biodance mask is worn overnight and is built around ceramides for barrier comfort; it contains shea butter and collagen extract of unstated origin, so this Abib mask is the one to choose if you avoid nut or animal-derived ingredients.
