As part of the Ombra Del Sole Series, the Repair Mask is developed to correct and rejuvenate stressed skin from the likes of the sun, pollution, chemical cosmetics, and prescription drugs. Benedetta’s Repair Mask is the first line of defense to exfoliate dead cells allowing for new healthy cells to emerge and stimulate our own natural immunity, for creating stronger healthier skin.
Our Repair Mask aids the skin’s correction of atmospheric damage as it soothes and nourishes. The synergy of 100% Botanical ingredients, each certified organic, is not just clean but profoundly effective in removing upper layers of dead skin cells as it enhances the renewal of collagen and elastin through deeper level stimulation.
Due to the exfoliating properties of this mask, we do reccomend using the Hydrating Elixir Neroli right after to help soothe and hydrate the skin.

Mask Powder: 1.7oz | 50g
Activator: 2.7oz | 80ml
Caution: Not intended for those with extreme sensitivities.
Mix approximately 1 scoop Repair Mask Activator to 1-1.5 scoops Repair Mask. After cleansing with Rosemary & Geranium Crème Cleanser, apply to face, neck and chest. Let dry for 20-40 minutes. Splash face with cool water to rehydrate before removing. Use rolling technique to remove for extra exfoliation. Prior to applying Crystal Radiance of choice, splash face with cool water once more. For dry, sensitive skin, apply a thin layer of Rosemary & Geranium or Anti-Inflammatory Cleanser may be applied before Mask.
Using our Crystal Radiance Hydrating Elixir Neroli after the Repair Mask is the most hydrating and soothing for your skin after this treatment.
The Repair Mask was created out of a need for extra exfoliation and correction before and after the skin becomes damaged. Initially I created a Pomegranate Exfoliant for Estheticians to use in treatments. This preparation was offered to their clients in need of a secondary procedure that had the ability to slough off more dead cells and have immediate results.
When I decided to come out with the Ombra Del Sole Series, it seemed appropriate to include this process and blend it with two kinds of Pomegranate powders and many more new materials, to enhance and include extra nutrients.
As a preventative and corrective preparation this formula has a more aggressive approach to exfoliation using ingredients [below] that breakdown dry skin cells and aid cellular renewal turnover rate; something that slows down with aging and increased damage. The Repair Mask & Activator penetrates deeper into layers of the dermis and once dried can stimulate collagen by shocking the cells into new production.
The powders in this mask have a reputation for treating sun damaged skin and addressing issues like age spots, acne scars, discoloration and elasticity- all associated with aging and atmospheric assault. They include:
The Repair Mask Activator is filled with waters and extracts rich in nutrients like linolenic acid and Vitamin C, both reputed for collagen synthesis. Once the Repair Mask Powder is blended into a homogenous cream and applied to the skin, it’s best to wait at least 20-30 minutes before rolling it off. Leaving it on longer will allow it to stimulate deeper into the epidermis, often causing a mild pulsating feeling. It’s recommended to start with less time for those with sensitivities.
The true activation takes place once the product is removed. Wet hands to make sure you have “slightly” rehydrated, still leaving the mask somewhat dry. Using the OMR -Open Mouth Resistant Technique, roll with pads of fingers in a circular fashion until all the mask is off. Use a very wet washcloth or splash with cold water the remaining mask off until your face is clear.
Should you do this procedure at night we recommend using the Ombra Del Sole Nighttime Repair Serum, followed by Crystal Radiance Hydrating Elixir, in particular Neroli if your skin is red or sensitive after treatment.

An extraordinary facial experience. Our non-clay, anti-wrinkle mask is effective for even the most sensitive skin. This thalassotherapeutic treatment will leave your skin feeling beautiful, smooth and firm.
Our Seaweed Mask is comprised of a micronized fine powder, made fresh per individual use by combining Certified Biodynamic & Organic Lavender Hydrosol. The powder consists of several sustainably harvested seaweeds, including hand-picked red marine algae and certified organic blue green spirulina. Red marine algae, known for its antiviral properties, aids in circulation, hydration and exfoliation.
This holistic formula strengthens the epidermis, helping to provide a more youthful, renewed, healthy glow to your complexion as it fights the signs of aging.
Mix Seaweed Powder with Lavender Hydrosol to a creamy consistency and apply with brush or fingertips. Suggested measurements: Mix 3/4 scoop of Seaweed Powder to approximately 1 scoop Lavender Hydrosol. However, we encourage you to use individual measurements based on preferred consistency.
We recommend first massaging in Rosemary & Geranium Crème Cleanser to leave on under mask for blemished skin.
For best results use weekly.
The 3 step Benedetta Home Spa treatment:
1. Massage in Rosemary & Geranium Crème Cleanser.
2. Apply Seaweed Mask for a minimum of 20 minutes.
3. Luxuriate in Seaweed Bath for a minimum of 20 minutes.
*If you have a medical skin condition or are allergic or sensitive to iodine, please consult your physician before using.
After launching the Benedetta line in February 1996, with exactly 9 authentic preparations, a facial mask was not among them.
We slowly integrated into selling to estheticians and they were the ones that requested that we create a clay mask of sorts. I initially felt that our Rosemary & Geranium Cleanser was all anyone needed to achieve many of the attributes one expected from a clay mask. In fact, there is some clay in that cleanser. Leaving the cleanser on for 20 minutes while massaging congested areas is very exfoliating.
I felt that clay was far to stripping for the skin and would be counterproductive in bringing the skin into balance. I resisted until I was given a pound of some sea veggies that had been micronized (made into flour). Not complete, I added some others, along with Blue green algae, and voila, a Non-Clay Anti-Aging Facial Mask was born. Made fresh with Lavender Hydrosol, you can customize the viscosity to suit your skin.
I am not one to follow trends and run wild with one ingredient as the magic bullet to all your skin care needs. It is not only a system of skin care preparations that work together that matters, but the synergies and collaborative ingredients that form a product.

I have spent many hours in the ocean, waiting for waves, or just walking along the shore feeling the sand, seaweed, and water beneath my feet. The ocean has a revitalizing effect on us without question. Taking up 70% of our planet, we have a symbiotic cord with all that it has to offer.
Hot springs have their own therapeutic qualities through mineral absorption and heat. I have visited many and find their cleansing, detoxifying ability invaluable.
Comprising a bath that possessed all the elements of both these therapies and natural wonders was the end goal in the development of the Seaweed Bath. I wanted an alternative to what was being offered. As a long time user of seaweeds, and with knowledge of their curative and restorative effects on radiation, the development of a bath to harness such properties was imminent.
As an aromatherapist, I wanted to assist the continuation of therapeutic release with an essential oil blend-- Not just any essential oil blend, but one that would rival any “scented” bath salt by using a therapeutic dose.
The Benedetta Seaweed Bath was developed and launched in 2000. Comprised of two therapies, dosed separately.
1. Micronized Sea Vegetables - Composed of several seaweeds.
2. Organic & Biodynamic Essential Oil Blend.
This incredible, rejuvenating preparation is a must in every bathroom. This Life-Changing Seaweed Bath is invaluable during cold and flu season to ward off, or shorten the duration of, illness. Aches and pains are diminished, and balance is restored with consistent use. Taken in hot water weekly or daily to rejuvenate.

For many years I was asked to create a body lotion. As a formulator, I look for the right ingredients for the preparation to couple with improving a physical disposition or skin disorder.
It wasn’t until one of my farmers in California sent me 5 gallons of Lemon Cypress hydrosol with a note saying,” I hope you can use this”, did I decide to create a body lotion using this beautiful botanical water.
A body lotion to improve circulation was the intention and the ingredients just fell into place. A synergy using nourishing botanicals that would rid the skin of dryness, as it aided circulation was created.
The Vibrant Body Lotion was born and launched in the San Francisco Ferry Building to amazing reviews. Still our best seller, it possesses a unique fragrance coming from the fresh array of raw ingredients that uplift the senses as it works magic on the skin.
Our customers, young and old, all have outstanding reports suggesting increased circulation as well as improvement to skin disorders like eczema, psoriasis, and various other types of contact dermatitis.**
After 4 years of success with the Vibrant Lotion, we launched the addition of two more lotions, the Lavender Body Lotion and Neroli Body Lotion, both having similar reports of success.
Our Lavender is an authentic aroma grown and processed by a California biodynamic farm. The Neroli is biodynamically sourced from Egypt and is processed slowly, omitting a delicate floral aroma. Both are calming and soothing to the skin, with the Neroli being more effective for the drier skin conditions.
**None of these statements have been clinically proven nor do they suggest a cure or treatment to any disease or disorder.

Hi! The set should give you about 6-8 uses, so about 6-8 weeks worth of uses if you are using it weekly.
How often should this be applied?
Hi Liz! This can be used as often as you like or as needed. We would recommend using it no more than once per week.
