The product is formulated to calm the skin surface, soften roughness, and reduce the look of temporary redness that makes capillaries more noticeable. Ingredients like horse chestnut extract and ginkgo biloba are commonly used in cosmetics for uneven, reactive complexions because they help the skin appear more uniform and less easily irritated. Shark oil and placenta extract add conditioning so the skin feels smoother and looks better rested. Together, these effects can make existing vessels less prominent visually, especially when redness from dryness, wind, or fatigue is a contributing factor.
It is important to understand that no cosmetic mask can physically remove, shrink, or permanently close dilated capillaries (telangiectasia). Those changes require medical procedures such as laser or IPL performed by a qualified professional. This mask works on the surface: improving hydration, barrier comfort, and the optical appearance of the skin. You may notice a fresher, more even tone after a few uses, particularly if your redness fluctuates with temperature changes, lack of sleep, or indoor heating.
For lasting improvement, combine the mask course with daily habits that protect fragile capillaries: lukewarm (not hot) water for cleansing, avoiding known triggers (spicy food, alcohol, extreme temperatures), consistent SPF use, and a moisturiser that supports barrier lipids. If redness persists, worsens, or is accompanied by burning, pustules, or eye symptoms, see a dermatologist — this may indicate rosacea or another condition that needs medical management, not just cosmetic care.
