Yon-Ka Glyconight 10% Peel Masque (50ml/1.77 oz) Anti-Aging Face Mask, Skin Renewal for Wrinkles and Pore Reduction with Glycolic Acid

I’ve been using Yon-ka Paris products for years and love the Glyconight Masque. The cell turnover is gentle but visible in its results. Skins stays much more hydrated and clear. The formula glides on smoothly with a light fragrance. I would recommend this for anyone regardless of their age.

I absolutely love this mask. I use it 2 nights a week and wake up with my skin so soft and my tone more even. I love that it is a retinol alternative as well. Since this is not an every day use product it will last a long time. I used the subscribe and save option to save a little money but after using it I definitely order it again.

I'm not sure if I will be able to see any results since there isn't enough product. $26 should be at least twice as much!

Good looking skin. Goes deep in tissue. Peeling effect.

I’ve been trying a few different products from this brand and have been enjoying it. But, the brand is pretty darn expensive, and I just don’t see how it would be worth that much!This is a great glycolic acid treatment. It claims to have 10% pure glycolic acid. This is a sleep mask, so you apply it at night and leave it on overnight. Since it’s to be left on overnight, it’s definitely on the milder side, at least for me. Someone who has no experience with glycolic acid treatments might feel that it’s too much for them. In that case, I’d recommend just applying it for a little bit and then rinsing it off, not leaving it on overnight.The one thing about this brand is that they always infuse their products with different blends. This one has “proprietary Yon-ka Quintessence. Features a blend of of lavender, geranium, rosemary, cypress, and thyme.” If you’re sensitive to essential oils or floral extracts, this might not be for you. For me, I notice a faint lavender scent. I don’t feel like it’s strong at all, but I’m not sensitive to scents.It goes on very easily. It feels creamy. It dries down quickly. It doesn’t leave a sticky or greasy feeling on the skin. Some sleeping masks can feel uncomfortable on the skin when you lay your head on your pillow, but this one doesn’t! I didn’t even look or feel like I had anything on, which made me wonder if I’d even notice any difference in the morning! In the morning after I washed my face off, it felt soft and smooth. I didn’t notice any difference in wrinkles or my sun spots, but, I’d only used it once at the time.The directions say you can use this every other night as a maintenance treatment or as an intensive treatment 2 to 3 times a year for maximum results. It doesn’t say how often you use it for the “intensive treatment,” just that you use it 2 to 3 times a year. With that description I’d say using it every other night is more intensive than just using it 2 to 3 times a year. So, there must be more to it, like you use it for a few days in a row a couple times a year? I don’t know. I chose to use it every other night. I’ve been using this for about a month now. I haven’t noticed any results in fading sun spots or any fine lines I have. I do feel like it makes my skin look smoother and brighter. I’m hopeful that this combined with the rest of my skin care will be beneficial.Overall, it’s a nice sleeping mask that is a mild glycolic acid treatment. Honestly, I don’t think it’s even close to worth the price. I usually wouldn’t pay a lot for a glycolic acid treatment product. They usually aren’t expensive. It’s just not an ingredient that usually results in a lot of expensive products, in my experience. So, seeing this one priced so high for a 10% glycolic acid sleeping mask really surprised me. I’m not sure where they came up with the price? But, I don’t rate on price since we all have different views on what’s affordable and what’s expensive. I’ll say its a nice sleeping mask, it’s a very mild glycolic treatment that you can do as often as every other night. It feels nice on the skin. It absorbs quick and dries down without leaving a sticky feeling or residue on the skin. It smoothes and softens my skin. I haven’t noticed any other results, but will update my review if I do!

Yonka Glyconight 10% glycolic acid peel mask seems like a really good AHA product that exfoliates by dissolving dead skin cells and sebum. The 10% concentration is reasonable even for someone like me who hasn’t used glycolic acid before and has sensitive skin. Still, I’ve been easing into it as my skin is so sensitive. This mask looks like a white cream and is supposed to be applied in the evening after cleansing, left on all night and rinsed in the morning. Ideally, no face cream or other product is applied after the mask.Initially, I didn’t leave this mask on all night when using it at first as I wasn’t sure how my skin would react. But the goal has been to get to that point where I sleep with it on my face and neck. I may have been fine jumping right into an all night regimen after one test run for allergies, but I didn’t want to risk it given my sensitivities. So I’ve been applying a dime to nickel size of the mask after cleansing in the evening and just leaving it on as long as my face feels comfortable and then I would rinse before bed.This mask soaks into my skin quickly and leaves just a light residue that’s clear. My face initially tingled, but I’ve read that’s normal. I’ve used this about 6 times, and the main issue I’ve had is that my skin hasn’t moisturized enough so it gets dry and itchy. The itch has felt more like I need moisture than an allergic reaction. The itching has calmed down some but I just feel like I need more moisture in order to leave the mask on all night.I worked up from wearing the mask 30 minutes to about 3 hours. The only issue was that my skin just felt dry and would itch from the dryness. The mask itself didn’t cause the dryness, but it didn’t provide enough moisture for my dry skin to feel comfortable for long periods. For most, it’s likely not an issue as the mask feels quite gentle now that I’ve used it many times, but I’d just suggest testing the mask once for sensitivity before using it all night. I’ve had no visible irritation, rash or similar issues.I made a routine CS inquiry about whether a cream can be layered over the mask. In short, while it’s not ideal, I was informed I can let the mask soak in at least 30 minutes and then apply a super gentle cream that doesn’t have any harsh or irritating ingredients (such as retinol). I tried that approach and added a layer of a gentle recovery cream that never bothers my skin, and my skin feels moisturized and comfortable enough to use the mask at night. I may be able to ditch the cream at some point as glycolic acid helps the skin learn “to retain its natural moisture” and increases hydration in dry skin, per Paula’s Choice.While I haven’t used the mask enough yet to achieve optimal results, I’ve noticed benefits such as some smoothing of fine lines and brighter and calmer skin. I’ll keep using this mask as 5%-10% glycolic acid can even skin tone, lessen sun damage, increase firmness and more, according to Paula’s Choice. While it’s taken some time to acclimate and figure out how this Glyconight mask works best for me, I like it a lot and will keep using it. 4.5 stars. Made in France.

I have been using this as a spot treatment every day at night with the C20 in the morning and have noticed significant improvements in my dark spots in 2 weeks. Worth the price in my book
