What is Liss Komplex Restoring Mask?

Liss Komplex Restoring Mask by Edelstein is the acidic mask at pH 3.5 that closes the salon services of the Liss Komplex smoothing line, leaving the hair smoother, softer and visibly shinier. Applied to damp, towel-dried hair after the technical service or the wash and left on for 5-10 minutes, it brings the hair back to an acidic pH after Liss Komplex Alkaline Shampoo pH 8.2, Liss Komplex Treatment or a colour service. Hydrolyzed keratin and hydrolyzed silk in a rich, creamy texture give the lengths a supple, silky feel and a bright shine, in a 500 ml salon jar.

Specifications

Who Liss Komplex Restoring Mask is for

• Salons closing the Liss Komplex smoothing service, after Liss Komplex Alkaline Shampoo pH 8.2 and Liss Komplex Treatment.
• Colour and toning services, as the acidic step on the lengths once the colour is rinsed.
• Chemically treated or porous hair that needs a more intensive care treatment in the salon.
• Hair smoothed with Liss Komplex, as a weekly treatment that keeps it hydrated and disciplined.

Key ingredients

• Acidic pH 3.5: set with Citric Acid, it brings the hair back to an acidic pH after alkaline services, for a smoother surface and more shine.
• Hydrolyzed Keratin and Hydrolyzed Silk: proteins that condition the lengths and give them a stronger, more supple and silky feel.
• Cetrimonium Chloride and Dipalmitoylethyl Hydroxyethylmonium Methosulfate: conditioning agents that make the hair soft and easy to detangle.
• Cetearyl Alcohol, Myristyl Alcohol and Glycerin: fatty alcohols for the rich, creamy texture that clings to the fibre, with glycerin to keep the hair supple.

Results

After rinsing the hair is smoother, stronger to the touch and easier to comb, with a bright, even shine from roots to ends. After a Liss Komplex smoothing the lengths fall sleek and silky; after colour or toning they look glossy and feel soft, and porous, chemically treated hair regains a supple, disciplined feel.

How to use Liss Komplex Restoring Mask

1. Application: distribute evenly on damp, towel-dried hair after the technical service or the wash.
2. Processing time: leave on for 5-10 minutes. For more intensive care on heavily damaged hair, extend to 10 minutes.
3. Mechanical action: use the Flexion (L) brush or a wide-toothed comb for even distribution.
