The ZNÖCUETÖD full-face mask is designed to provide comprehensive cooling for the entire face, featuring specific cutouts for the eyes, nose, and mouth. It utilizes a dual-sided construction: the "action" side is made of high-density PVC for immediate cooling, while the "comfort" side is lined with plush fabric to prevent the skin from getting too cold too quickly. This design is particularly helpful after facial treatments or for managing overall facial tension.
The mask contains SAP (Super Absorbent Polymer) gel beads that are designed to reach therapeutic cold levels within about an hour of being placed in the freezer. While the mask is flexible, storing it near sharp objects in the freezer should be avoided as the 0.3mm PVC can be susceptible to punctures. Additionally, while the mask can be used for heat, microwave heating should be done very cautiously to prevent the seals from delaminating due to localized hot spots.
- Ergonomic cutouts allow for breathing and visibility during use.
- The plush backing reduces the risk of "ice shock" upon application.
- High-elasticity straps are designed to handle repeated use, though they may stretch over several months.
One detail to note is that the PVC side does not have a moisture barrier, so condensation may form on the surface during use. This can result in a slightly damp feeling on the skin. Overall, it is a versatile tool for those who prefer full-face coverage over a standard eye-only mask.
For a more targeted cooling tool that focuses only on the eyes, the L'autre Peau 2-pack offers a smaller, more portable solution.
You can find additional organization and personal care items in the cooling eye mask category.
