That pairing is why the pack works on oil and on irritation across the same fifteen minutes rather than trading one against the other.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentella at 4,000 ppm settles the redness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Madecassoside and Asiaticoside, the working compounds in Centella extract, quieten the inflammatory signalling behind redness and heat while feeding repair of the barrier lipids. Mary\u0026amp;May use the flower, leaf and stem extract alongside the whole-plant extract and publish the dose, rather than leaving you to read a position on the ingredient list.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTea Tree and Houttuynia Cordata take the bacterial half:\u003c\/strong\u003e Melaleuca Alternifolia leaf extract inhibits the growth of Cutibacterium acnes, the organism most closely tied to inflammatory \u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/acne\"\u003ebreakouts\u003c\/a\u003e, and Houttuynia Cordata brings its own antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activity alongside it. A rinse-off format gives them a short window to act in, which is also why they avoid the dryness and sensitisation that leave-on Tea Tree brings to reactive skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTexture \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA cool grey-green clay that spreads thickly and firms as it sits, drying down over ten to fifteen minutes rather than staying wet the way a gel pack does. The cooling is immediate, helped by a little peppermint powder in the base, and most obvious over an inflamed spot. It rinses off with lukewarm water and leaves skin matte and calm; Ectoin and Allantoin at the tail of the list are what stop it finishing tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e This goes on thickly and comes off once it has dried.

The Mary\u0026amp;May CICA Tea Tree Soothing Wash Off Pack concentrates that activity into a short contact time and then rinses it away, which caps the exposure. You get less total contact than a leave-on product gives, and in exchange you get a format that reactive skin will tolerate two or three times a week indefinitely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will a clay mask dry my skin out?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: A clay mask left on past the point where it has dried will, because once it has taken the oil it starts on the water. The way round it is the way the brand directs: apply it thickly, rinse at ten to fifteen minutes, and let the Centella, Ectoin and Allantoin in the formula do the rest. Skin should feel matte and settled afterwards rather than tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does this fit around the rest of an acne routine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Keep it out of the same session as a high-strength acid or a retinoid, since a clay pack asks enough of the barrier on its own. On the evenings in between it sits comfortably with a calming serum or a plain moisturiser, and it needs nothing layered over it to finish the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkin that has been told it is too sensitive for the products that would actually clear it does not need a gentler active, only a shorter one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sn-explore-more\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore more\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDiscover more \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/centella-asiatica\"\u003eCentella Asiatica\u003c\/a\u003e skincare, target \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/acne\"\u003eacne\u003c\/a\u003e, or browse the full \u003ca href=\"\/en-ca\/collections\/mary-may\"\u003eMary \u0026amp; May\u003c\/a\u003e range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mary\u0026May","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47822572749134,"sku":"MMP07-PKC","price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/5057\/0062\/files\/MMP07-PKC.png?v=1778671448","url":"https:\/\/skinnomid.com\/en-ca\/products\/mary-may-cica-teatree-soothing-wash-off-pack","provider":"Skin-Nomad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
