P.CALM Red Rice Bubble Deep Mask

Ingredient analysis and how the ad lines read

Read on 2026-09-21

What is this product?

A carbonated bubble clay wash-off mask built around calamine as the first ingredient, carbonated water at 16%, and Monascus rice ferment at 1,000ppm, positioned for pore and brightness care. The brightening and irritation-test numbers on the page lack disclosed test methods, so treat them as unverified.

What makes it different?

Calamine sits first on the list, an unusual lead for a clay-style bubble mask, followed immediately by carbonated water at a printed 16%. Three clays (bentonite, kaolin, illite) plus mild glucoside surfactants give cleansing and oil absorption without added fragrance or alcohol. Tranexamic acid appears mid-list and the rice ferment is printed at 1,000ppm, with only those two concentrations disclosed. The fluoroether bubbles-forming solvents at positions eight and nine are not covered by the reference table, so their skin profile is unjudged.
