Missha Real Essential Platinum Sheet Facial Mask helps your skin cope with the urban lifestyle by offering strong antioxidant protection, detoxification by blocking the growth of lipid peroxides, providing total protection from the sun, and most importantly, help maintain the balance of ions in the skin cells, which promotes the metabolism of the cells so they are better able to absorb nutrients and naturally eliminate the skin’s wastes and boost the production of collagen, which is responsible for giving structure, firmness, and keeping moisture to the skin.
What is Colloidal Platinum?
Platinum is renowned to be far more valuable than Gold in many different fields and aspects, and perhaps the most invaluable of which is in its use in the treatment of a wide range of cancers, and in skin care, it has been highly-regarded for its ultimate skin-changing role considered as one of the breakthrough products of nanotechnology.
The Platinum ingredient in Missha Real Essential Platinum Sheet Facial Mask refers to Colloidal Platinum, which consists of Platinum particles that are nano-sized, or about 100,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair,1 stably dispersed in a solvent to produce a colloidal suspension.
As an ingredient for facial mask, it offers a two-tiered benefit for skin care:
- In terms of form and size (i.e., colloidal form and the very tiny size of the particles of Platinum), it can easily permeate and be quickly absorbed by the skin; and,
- In terms of benefits for the skin, it delivers exactly what is expected of Platinum as an ingredient of a skin care product.
What are the Benefits of Platinum on the Skin?
Platinum is a very skin-friendly skin care ingredient and a strong antioxidant that works for the skin in many different ways, like:
1. Platinum blends and works on all skin types, and notably safe to use on sensitive skin.2
2. Platinum detoxifies the skin by blocking the growth of active peroxides, which are produced by the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in the cells in the presence of oxygen and bring about toxic effects on the skin and trigger acne and pimple breakouts.2,3
3. Platinum offers strong antioxidant protection because it naturally eliminates active oxygen and free radicals, which both destroy the collagen and elastin in the skin’s dermis, oxidize unsaturated fatty acids to create wrinkles, spots, and freckles, and damage the skin cells’ DNA that can bring about skin cancer.2,5
4. Platinum helps to revive the skin’s youthfulness and wellness by continually producing negative ions, which enrich the metabolism of the skin cells, reinforce the production of collagen that helps to improve the skin’s moisture-retention capacity and keep the skin firm and elastic, and improves the skin’s immune system. 6
5. Platinum can insulate the skin against the sun’s UV rays and as long as Platinum is in the skin, less sunscreen or none at all would be needed. 6
