Benefits

Fight Blemishes and Acne

The Cleansing Pads feature the groundbreaking MasonPeptide1, a unique peptide that, when combined with salicylic acid, is proven to be 50% more effective at breaking down acne-causing bacteria compared to traditional cleansers.

Hydrate

With lactic Acid in the Cleansing Pads, paired with the all-encompassing bioactive Moisturizer, this routine works against dryness and flakiness in just 2 steps. This routine will boost your skin’s natural moisture retention, leaving it visibly firm and deeply hydrated.

Protect & enhance

The Bioactive Moisturizer, enriched with a potent tetrapeptide blend, works to repair your skin’s microbiome and strengthen its natural barrier for a healthier, revitalized complexion. The Cleansing Pads and Moisturizer also work together to eliminate harmful bacteria without being overly harsh on the skin.

Exfoliate & Cleanse

Infused with a powerful tri-acid blend, the Cleansing Pads gently exfoliate dead skin while dissolving oil, dirt, and impurities. This essential reset not only leaves your skin feeling refreshed but also optimally preps it to absorb the Moisturizer for maximum effectiveness.

SkinMason Essential FAQs

Simplicity is one of SkinMason's core principles - just follow the numbered steps printed on every SkinMason product - with SkinMason Essential, you'll just use steps 1 and 3, as step 2 (our Vitamin C Serum) is not required for this routine:

  1. Cleansing Pads: Use one pad to gently wipe your face and neck.
  2. Moisturizer: Finish by applying 1-2 pumps of moisturizer to your hands or face and gently massage into your skin.

If you ever need to skip a step, just remove it from the order and keep everything else as is.

SkinMason Essential will do 3 things for you:

  • Make Your Skin Feel Its Best: The cleansing pads exfoliate and cleanse to leave you feeling refreshed and hydrated. The 3-in-1 bioactive moisturizer then absorbs deep to leave you feeling nourished and protected.
  • Make Your Skin Look Its Best: The cleansing pads remove harmful bacteria and impurities, giving you a clear complexion. Then the bioactive moisturizer activates your skin's natural anti-aging responses to keep it looking young and healthy.
  • Improve Your Skin's Overall Health: Unlike some skincare brands, SkinMason goes beyond surface issues. Our formulas mimic your skin’s natural state, absorbing deep to protect from environmental stress and activate natural responses that usually slow as we age. No magic—just cutting-edge science to help you look, feel, and be your best.

SkinMason routines are designed to be flexible - they can be used morning or night, once or twice per day.

One of our core beliefs is that the best skincare routine is one you'll actually stick to - for some people, that will be once a day, for others twice.

If you're just starting out with SkinMason, we generally recommend applying the products just once per day - most customers find the mornings an easier time to do their routine, but the evening is also fine.

Yes - SkinMason products can be used alongside other skincare products. We know what it's like to have finally found that perfect product and you shouldn't need to give it up! That being said, SkinMason was designed to not need any other products - SkinMason Essential is a full skin routine designed to tackle a selection of common concerns.

If you have any concerns about mixing products, we recommend consulting a dermatologist.

If you're using a traditional facial cleanser and our SkinMason Cleansing Pads, make sure to start with your traditional cleanser, rinse and dry the face, and then apply the cleansing pads (no rinse required!)

SkinMason Essential is great for all skin types - including sensitive, dry, oily, and combination skin.

If you have any concerns with how your skin will react to the products, we recommend to both spot test the products on patches of skin, and also to only use them every second day for the first 5-6 days to allow your skin to acclimate to the new routine.

Skincare for everyone

SkinMason is skincare for everyone - we designed our products to be backed by the most progressive science, to give you real results, and to be simple enough to actually use every day. This means SkinMason isn't limited by gender, or skin tone, or any gimmick other brands might use to say skin care isn't for you.

Forget the outdated marketing ploys of "skincare for men" or "skincare for women" - embrace skincare that provides reliable results with simple steps.

Paraben Free

Silicone free

Sulfate Free

SkinMason Essential is a two step routine that removes blemishes and oil, hydrates the skin, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and protects the skin's natural barrier. The pads deep-clean, exfoliate, and leave you with smooth, acne-free skin. Then the moisturizer sparks your skin's natural cellular responses, similar to professional grade treatments but without the need for downtime or recovery. 

  • Use one pad to gently wipe your face and neck.
  • Then, apply 1-2 pumps of moisturizer to your hands or face, and massage into your skin.
  • Don't forget to close the product lids properly.
  • One order should last approximately 2 months with regular usage

Simple Routine, Real Results

We designed SkinMason Essential for those wanting to build out a new routine, or just like to keep things simple.

The pads exfoliate, fight blemishes & acne, and sooth the skin. The moisturizer lays down a bioactive foundation to promote natural anti-aging responses and protect from damage.

Reverse the effects of aging, fight blemishes and acne, hydrate and protect the skin. All it takes is two steps.

Trust the science

Not only are SkinMason formulas doctor-developed, we also work with some of the most trusted and accomplished laboratories to create our products.

We refuse to use any ingredient that isn’t proven to be effective by rigorous, serious scientific testing. That’s why we’re so confident SkinMason will work for you.

Self-care is healthcare

A little self-care goes a long way, and it's time to start making that accessible to everyone.

Even if it’s just a couple minutes, every day. You’re building incredible long-term effects for the way you look, for sure, but also the way that you feel.

My skin is so clear!

I’m on the autism spectrum & my mom bought the essential kit for me. Cetaphil is good for me, but I still get breakouts. I saw the difference using Skin Mason after 1 use!! I ‘ve used it for some days abd there are no more little bumps that I used to see on my temple. I can’t believe how clear my skin is & it is so easy to use.

3-in-1 bioactive formula moisturizer was a great surprise.

I am not a big fan of adding lotions to my clean face. The pads and serum by Skin Mason have been so successful as stand alone care. Then the moisturizer came out. Great on my neck and hands. I have very thin skin in these areas. This new product was not heavy or greasy, it actually felt healing from the first application. Very impressed. I realize these products were designed for men, but my brothers can buy their own. The are more effective than items marketed for women, which tend to coat and clog pores. Great addition to the pads (1), serum (2), and now moisturizer(3). This is a winner.

Amazing moisturizer for my skin

Started using the pads around six months ago and could notice a difference right away. The moisturizer is just as good. Makes my skin look fresh and goes on smoothly with no residue. These prices are worth the investment if you’re serious about keeping your skin in good order as you age.
