Esthemax Thermal Base Cream is a pre-mask treatment moisturizer for licensed pros running thermal/hot therapy facials across all skin types. 🔥
Forming a protective occlusive cushion (petrolatum, mineral oil, dimethicone), it buffers heat and helps reduce moisture loss while prepping skin to enhance nutrient absorption under a thermal mask. 🛡
A humectant–occlusive pairing with glycerin delivers sustained hydration and a smoother, plumper look, while tocopheryl acetate (Vitamin E) provides antioxidant support. Clients see skin that feels softer and looks more supple with improved surface firmness. 💧✨
Pro-friendly slip ensures even mask glide and less friction for a clean application, and the 1000 ml backbar format keeps services moving. 🧴
Bring a smoother, cushioned thermal-mask experience to your menu—add this base to your backbar.
Benefits
- Protective Occlusive Cushion: Creates a protective buffer under a thermal mask to help reduce moisture loss and potential heat-related dryness (petrolatum, mineral oil, dimethicone).
- Sustained Hydration: Humectant–occlusive pairing attracts and locks in water for longer-lasting moisture and softness (glycerin + petrolatum/mineral oil/dimethicone).
- Enhanced Slip And Even Application: Improves glide for smooth, even mask application while reducing tugging and friction (dimethicone, mineral oil).
- Smoother, Plumper Look: Hydration helps soften the look of fine lines and improves surface suppleness temporarily (glycerin).
- Antioxidant Support: Provides antioxidant support to help protect skin lipids during treatment (tocopheryl acetate).
Active ingredients
Petrolatum: High-occlusive emollient that forms a protective barrier to help reduce transepidermal water loss and buffer skin when used beneath a thermal mask.
Dimethicone: Silicone film-former that enhances slip and creates a breathable barrier, helping minimize moisture loss and friction during heat-based masking.
Mineral Oil: Occlusive emollient that reinforces the skin’s barrier and cushions the skin, helping slow evaporation under treatment conditions.
Glycerin: Highly effective humectant that attracts water into the stratum corneum; paired with occlusives, it supports longer-lasting hydration and a smoother, plumper feel.
Tocopheryl Acetate: Stable Vitamin E antioxidant that supports protection of skin lipids and overall conditioning during treatment.
Cross-outs (supportive but not primary for main effects): ~~Propylene Glycol~~ (humectant/solvent), ~~Ceresin~~ and ~~Microcrystalline Wax~~ (structural waxes), ~~Panthenol~~ (conditioning humectant at lower prominence vs. glycerin).
