Questions about JM Placen Lanolin Mask (10 Sheets)

Got questions? We’ve got answers!

Is this mask vegan?

No. It contains lanolin, which comes from sheep's wool, and hydrolyzed placental protein, which is animal-derived. If you avoid animal-derived ingredients, this is not the right mask.

What does lanolin actually do here?

It is a rich emollient that sits on the skin surface and slows water loss. It is one of the heaviest moisturizing ingredients used in skincare, which is why this mask suits dry skin rather than oily skin.

Can I use it if I have a wool allergy?

Lanolin sensitivity and wool fibre sensitivity are not the same thing, but lanolin is a recognised contact allergen in its own right. If you have ever reacted to a lanolin-based balm or nipple cream, skip this one.

How long should I leave it on?

Ten to twenty minutes. Taking it off before it dries out matters more than hitting the maximum time, because a drying sheet pulls moisture back off the skin.

How is this different from the Placen Horse mask?

Same range, different rich ingredient. The Horse version uses horse fat and hydrolyzed collagen; this one uses lanolin. Both are aimed at dry skin.
