MISSHA Vita-C Plus Daily Toning Sheet Mask

What is this product?

A daily brightening sheet mask built around niacinamide at the top of the formula and sea buckthorn water, with hydrating humectants throughout; the ascorbic acid amount is printed at a very small 0.05 ppm.

What makes it different?

Niacinamide sits fourth in the ingredient list, unusually high for a sheet mask essence, supporting the toning and brightening positioning. The printed 1,067 ppm sea buckthorn water and a long block of plant extracts (items 12 through 19) give the formula a botanical character, while ascorbic acid is printed at 0.05 ppm, a trace level. The page carries the whitening functional cosmetic notice, and no drying alcohols appear in the list. Orange peel oil, lavender oil and limonene near the end may matter to fragrance-sensitive users.
