What is Regeneration Therapy Mask 500?

Regeneration Therapy Mask 500 by Edelstein is the keratin, hyaluronic acid and aloe mask that completes the Regeneration Therapy care service, leaving dry, stressed or sensitised hair softer, smoother and shinier. It is used after the shampoo and the treatment vials or as a 5-minute standalone mask, and the 500 ml backbar jar gives around 20 applications at about 25 ml each.

Specifications

Who Regeneration Therapy Mask 500 is for

• Dry, rough or frizzy hair after colour, lightening or heat styling

Key ingredients

• Hydrolyzed Keratin: a hydrolysed protein that cares for the hair surface and helps hair feel stronger and smoother
• Sodium Hyaluronate: a humectant that helps hold moisture in the hair
• Polyquaternium-55: a conditioning polymer that helps reduce visible frizz and makes combing easier
• Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice: aloe juice with moisturising properties
• Cetrimonium Chloride and Cetearyl Alcohol: the conditioning cream base that softens the lengths and helps detangling

Results

After rinsing, the hair is softer, smoother and easier to comb, with less frizz and more shine. Dry and stressed lengths look more cared for and are ready to style.

How to use Regeneration Therapy Mask 500

1. Wash with the Regeneration Therapy Shampoo and towel-dry the hair. For an intensive service, apply the Regeneration Therapy Treatment vials first.
2. Distribute about 25 ml evenly on the towel-dried lengths and ends, section by section. Long or thick hair needs more.
3. Comb through with the Flexion (L) brush to spread the mask evenly and detangle.
4. Leave on for 5 minutes for a standalone mask, or up to 10 minutes after the treatment.
5. Rinse thoroughly, finishing with cool water.
