Biretix Mask mops-up excess oil from the skin with Kaolin Clay and Solum Fullonium, while Vitamin A (aka Retinol) reduces pores size and helps to reduce the amount of acne-causing sebum which is excreted onto the surface of the skin. Used twice weekly, Biretix Mask helps to keep the skin clear and the complexion absent of acne.
