TORRIDEN Dive In — Masque Tissu Acide Hyaluronique 5D

This mask concentrates 5 forms of hyaluronic acid with different molecular weights — what the brand calls the 5D complex. Each molecule targets a specific depth: the high molecular weights (Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer) form a protective film on the surface, while theHydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid (100ppm) penetrates the deeper layers thanks to its ultra-small size (10 kDa). Between the two, three intermediate sizes — Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate — literally saturate the epidermis with water, layer after layer.

Panthenol (provitamin B5): a gentle humectant that prolongs hydration by slowing transepidermal water loss. Soothes redness and strengthens the skin barrier.

Trehalose : a bioprotective sugar that stabilizes cell membranes, particularly effective on dehydrated skin or skin exposed to urban pollution.

Allantoin : a healing molecule derived from comfrey, calms irritation and accelerates cell renewal without stripping.

Soothing botanical extracts: Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) and Calendula Officinalis, two traditional anti-inflammatory asters, enhance skin tolerance. The extract of Portulaca Oleracea (purslane) provides plant-based omega-3s and antioxidants.

☀️ Morning routine

1. After cleansing and toning, unfold the bio-cellulose mask (be careful, it is very thin and soaked with serum).
2. Apply it over the entire face, smoothing from the cheeks outward to avoid air bubbles.
3. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes — the fabric stays moist the whole time thanks to the gel texture of the serum.
4. Remove the mask and gently pat the excess serum until absorbed. Do not rinse.
5. Follow with your usual cream or SPF. The remaining serum in the sachet can be used on the neck, décolleté, or hands.

🌙 Evening routine

1. Apply the mask after your double cleansing and essence/toner.
2. Enjoy the 15-20 minutes of application to relax: the refreshing effect is enhanced if you keep the mask in the refrigerator.
3. Once removed, massage the excess serum then lock in hydration with a rich cream or a sleeping mask if your skin is very dry.

This mask is suitable for several skin types:

• Dehydrated or thirsty skin : skin that feels tight after cleansing, lacks radiance, or shows dehydration fine lines. The 5D complex instantly plumps.
• Sensitive or reactive skin : hypoallergenic formula clinically tested to be non-irritating, without artificial fragrance or isopropyl alcohol. Ideal after sun exposure, a long-haul flight, or a retinol session.
• Combination to oily skin : unlike cream masks, the serum texture leaves no greasy film. Hydration is immediate but the finish remains light.
• Layering or glass skin enthusiasts : a cult mask in Korea, used weekly or as makeup prep for a smoothing and plumping effect.

Avoid if : you are allergic to any of the listed botanical extracts (chamomile, calendula). Do a patch test on the inner elbow if your skin is very reactive.

As soon as the mask is removed, the skin shows a plump visible effect: features look rested, texture is smoother, complexion is radiant. Hydration lasts for several hours thanks to high molecular weight ingredients that limit evaporation.

After 1 to 2 weeks of regular use (2-3 times per week): dehydration fine lines diminish, the skin barrier regains its elasticity. Diffuse redness fades thanks to soothing extracts.

In the long term : used as an SOS routine or in addition to a daily moisturizing routine, this mask maintains an optimal hydration level. Some users even wear it overnight for maximum cocooning effect (although 15-20 minutes is enough).

Notable point: the bio-cellulose mask perfectly adheres to the contours of the face, allowing you to go about your activities during application without the fabric slipping.

What is the difference between this mask and the Dive In serum from the same range?

The serum is designed for daily application in a thin layer, while the mask delivers a maximum concentration of active ingredients in a single 15-20 minute application. The bio-cellulose support creates an occlusive effect that forces the penetration of the 5 forms of hyaluronic acid. If you are already using the serum, this mask becomes an ideal weekly booster.

Can this mask be used every day?

Yes, the hypoallergenic formula allows it. Many users in Korea include it in their morning routine before makeup for a fresh complexion. However, 2 to 3 times a week is usually enough to maintain optimal hydration, except in cases of severe dehydration or very dry environments (air conditioning, heating, altitude).

Does the mask contain fragrance? Can my sensitive nose tolerate it?

No synthetic fragrance added. The light and neutral scent comes from natural botanical extracts (chamomile, calendula). Users with sensitive skin or fragrance intolerance report excellent tolerance.

How long does the sachet last after opening?

Once the sachet is opened, use the mask immediately. The remaining serum can be transferred to a small airtight container and used within the next 2-3 days on the face, neck, or hands. Keep unopened sachets at room temperature, away from light.

Is this mask suitable for acne-prone or oily skin?

Absolutely. The watery serum texture does not clog pores (non-comedogenic formula confirmed by tests). Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid hydrates without heaviness. Some users even apply it after gentle peeling sessions to soothe inflammation without adding oils.

Can the bio-cellulose fabric be reused or left on for more than 20 minutes?

The fabric is single-use for hygiene reasons. Regarding duration: 15-20 minutes is optimal. Beyond that, the mask starts to dry and can paradoxically create a rebound dehydration effect. If you want to extend the experience, spray some thermal water or lotion on the mask every 10 minutes.

Founded in 2015 in Seoul by Lee Yoon-hee and Kwon In-gu, TORRIDEN takes its name from the Scottish village of Torridon — a hamlet lost in the Highlands, surrounded by clear lakes and ancient mountains. This poetic reference reflects the brand's philosophy: purity, minimalism, efficiency. While other brands multiply steps and active ingredients, TORRIDEN focuses on streamlined formulas, concentrated around a few high-performance ingredients (hyaluronic acid, ceramides, centella asiatica, panthenol).

The range Dive In, launched in 2016, propelled the brand to cult status in South Korea. Its low molecular weight hyaluronic acid serum held the #1 spot on Hwahae (the Korean equivalent of Yuka) for three consecutive years, and the sheet mask won the Olive Young Award. TORRIDEN claims a clean beauty approach: certified vegan formulas, absence of 17 controversial ingredients, eco-designed packaging with 50% recycled plastic, and detachable labels to facilitate sorting.

By 2026, the brand has five lines (Dive In, Balanceful Cica, Solid In Ceramide, Cellmazing, Dive In For Men) and shines beyond Asia thanks to its social media presence and collaborations with independent dermatologists. Discover the entire TORRIDEN range
