WELLAGE Hyper Peptide Firming Booster Collagen Mask

What is this product?

A 38g two-piece hydrogel sheet mask from WELLAGE, the skincare brand of Korean botulinum toxin maker 휴젤, sold in five-sheet boxes and positioned on pore firming. The sheet is cast on an alginate, agar, carob gum and Irish moss matrix rather than soaked into fabric, with an embossed contact face for adhesion. It carries the 미백 and 주름개선 dual functional-cosmetic notation with 나이아신아마이드 at position 4 and 아데노신 at 15, and prints five ingredient levels directly in its statutory list, including hydrolysed collagen at 60ppm and four peptides between 0.75 and 0.1ppm. Two studies are disclosed: a 22 adult female four-week efficacy study at P&K reporting five pore metrics, and a 35 subject primary irritation study with study number PNK-25205-I2R and a named reading schedule. The brand states in four footnotes and on the package that the pore effect is temporary. No 향료 is declared among the 36 printed entries.

What makes it different?

Two things separate it from the sheet masks it sits beside on the surfaces read. It prints per-ingredient levels inside the statutory list itself, five of them, including the four peptides its marketing is built on, so a reader can size the peptide story at 0.15ppm instead of guessing. And it publishes its own limits: the pore effect is marked temporary in four separate footnotes and in the English package copy, and a footnote under the dermal cross-section animation confines the product's action to the stratum corneum. The weakness on the same axis is the accumulation language, where 쓰면 쓸수록 눈에 보이는 promises a trajectory across repeated use that the four-week single-arm study does not describe.

Did the ad claims hold up?

We checked 38 lines this product advertises against the ingredient list and public documents. 15 of them hold up. The rest are only partly right or have nothing behind them.
