Rovectin is a new to me brand of Korean skincare. Their Cica line focuses on acne prone and irritated skin. I recently reviewed Rovectin Cica Care Purifying Toner (read that here), and now it’s time for the next product that I got to test recently - Rovectin Dr. Mask Cica. If you prefer a video review of these masks, check out my June 2020 empties video.

Rovectin Dr. Mask Cica sheet masks promise to soothe redness and help heal breakouts. They are made with calamine - the pink powder often present in acne spot treatments. Just like the toner, these sheet masks feature Barrier Repair Complex™ to restore and repair and even help with discoloration. Other beneficial ingredients are centella asiatica and madecassoside - the popular heroes of many Korean beauty products for acneic skin.
How to use:
Apply to clean skin after toner
Leave on for 10-20 minutes
Discard the mask, pat in the remaining essence
Follow with moisturizer (I like using the Cica Balm - review coming soon)
My impressions:
This is gold. I love having masks like these in my arsenal just in case my skin freaks out. I have combination skin that’s very fair and gets red easily. Spot treatments for breakouts are great, but what if the irritation is widespread? As far as I know, there’s not a face-sized pimple patch.
The Rovectin Dr. Mask Cica sheet masks are very soft and comfortable to use. The essence has a jelly consistency that I enjoy. It stays where it should during application (as opposed to running down my neck).
Confession time - I have this nasty habit of popping pimples. And I don’t even have them often, but I’ll go after sebaceous filaments and other barely noticeable bumps. It seems to be stress related. And no, I don’t leave scars or any wounds, it’s not an episode of My Strange Addiction, but still - my face gets angry at me. I have actually been very consciously trying to kick the habit, and I’m mostly successful, but I still slip sometimes. And these masks actually calm all of that down. I sincerely hope my readers are not “pimple poppers”. But if you ever do any type of extraction or are just prone to red and irritated skin, then definitely check these out. They are great for healing red and inflamed areas. Of course, I don’t recommend using these (or any other) masks on broken skin or any sort of wound.
I love Dr. Mask Cica sheet masks. Definitely a great addition to my soothing, acne-fighting arsenal.
