Masque Visolastine+

LONG-LASTING HYDRATION + ALL-DAY COMFORT MASK

Some skin needs correcting.

Some skin needs calming.

And sometimes, skin is simply thirsty.

Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine+ is a long-lasting hydrating face mask designed specifically for dehydrated Skin Instants that need more water, more suppleness and more comfort.

Its rich yet comforting formula combines moisture-binding ingredients with nourishing botanical oils to help provide water to the outer layers of the epidermis and support the skin's ability to hold onto that hydration.

After 15 minutes, skin feels softer, smoother and more comfortable.

But what makes Visolastine+ particularly interesting is that its hydration is designed to last beyond the masking ritual itself, helping maintain comfortable moisture levels throughout the day.

Skin Instant:

Recommended for dehydrated Skin Instants.

We particularly think about Masque Visolastine+ when skin is experiencing:

• Tightness
• Fine dehydration lines
• Reduced suppleness
• A thirsty or uncomfortable feeling
• Dullness associated with dehydration
• Skin that seems to absorb moisturizer very quickly
• Seasonal dehydration
• Dehydration after travel or climate changes
• A need for more sustained moisture without an excessively heavy treatment

The Water Reservoir Mask

If Crème Masque Vernix VG is about lipids and protection, Visolastine+ is about something simpler:

water.

Skin hydration depends on three things:

• Getting water into the epidermis
• Holding onto that water
• Limiting how quickly it evaporates

When that balance is disrupted, the skin may begin to feel:

• Tight
• Less supple
• Rougher
• More visibly lined
• Simply uncomfortable

Masque Visolastine+ is designed around both sides of the hydration equation:

provide moisture + help retain it.

That is why we think of it as Biologique Recherche's water-reservoir mask.

Dry Skin and Dehydrated Skin Are Not the Same

This distinction matters.

Dehydrated skin lacks water.

It may feel tight or look dull and show fine dehydration lines.

And it can happen to:

• Dry skin
• Normal skin
• Combination skin
• Oily skin

Dry skin lacks lipids.

It may feel persistently rough, flaky or undernourished because the protective lipid environment is depleted.

You can also experience both at the same time.

Masque Visolastine+ is primarily about dehydration.

If your skin feels thirsty rather than fundamentally lipid-deficient, this is exactly where it fits.

How to Use:

• Apply a thin, even layer of Masque Visolastine+ over the face, neck and décolleté.
• Avoid contact with the eyes.
• Leave on for 15 minutes.
• Emulsify with cold water, then remove thoroughly using moistened non-woven gauze or soft cotton.
• Follow with the Biologique Recherche serums and cream appropriate for your Skin Instant.
• For external use only.

Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation:

Masque Visolastine+ is what we reach for when a client says:

• “My skin is drinking everything.”
• “I feel tight by the afternoon.”
• “My skin looks more lined when it's dehydrated.”
• “I don't need something purifying — I just need moisture.”
• “My skin feels different after flying.”
• “I want a mask that makes my skin feel comfortable again.”

It isn't trying to do ten different things.

And we actually love that about it.

Visolastine+ has one very clear job:

hydrate beautifully and make that hydration last.

This is one of our favourite masks for colder weather, dry climates, travel or anytime your skin suddenly begins behaving as though you've forgotten water exists.

The Sunday Hydration Ritual

Masque Visolastine+ doesn't need a complicated protocol.

1. Cleanse thoroughly.
2. Apply the Lotion P50 appropriate for your Skin Instant.
3. Apply a thin layer of Masque Visolastine+.
4. Leave for 15 minutes.
5. Remove with cool water.
6. Follow with your hydrating serum and cream.

That's it.

No elaborate cocktail required.

Sometimes sophisticated skincare is knowing when not to complicate things.

Masque Visolastine+ vs. Crème Masque Vernix VG

These two masks often end up in the same conversation because both make dry-feeling skin more comfortable.

But they are not doing the same job.

Choose Masque Visolastine+ when your primary concern is:

• Dehydration
• Lack of water
• Tightness
• Fine dehydration lines
• Reduced suppleness
• A need for lasting hydration

Choose Crème Masque Vernix VG when the skin feels:

• Lipid-deficient
• Persistently dry
• Depleted
• Stressed
• Under-protected
• In need of richer nourishment and reconditioning

Think:

• Visolastine+ → replenish water
• Vernix VG → replenish lipids + protect

If your skin feels thirsty, think Visolastine+.

If it feels depleted, think Vernix.

Masque Visolastine+ vs. Masque VIP O₂

Both can improve hydration, but their personalities are completely different.

Masque Visolastine+ is the hydration specialist.

Its story is:

• Water
• Moisture retention
• Suppleness
• Comfort

Masque VIP O₂ takes a broader skin-quality approach.

Its story is:

• Hydration
• Radiance
• Texture
• Visible fatigue
• Cellular vitality

In the simplest terms:

• Visolastine+ = hydration first
• VIP O₂ = hydration + radiance + skin quality

If the complexion looks exhausted, VIP O₂ may be the more interesting choice.

If it simply feels thirsty, Visolastine+ wins.

Masque Visolastine+ + Amniotique VG

If dehydration is a recurring concern rather than an occasional one, pairing the mask with Amniotique VG creates a beautifully cohesive hydration routine.

Their roles are complementary:

• Amniotique VG → daily water-focused hydration serum
• Masque Visolastine+ → intensive long-lasting hydration mask

Think of Amniotique VG as maintaining your hydration strategy and Visolastine+ as giving it a boost when the skin needs more.

Ingredients:

• Saccharide Isomerate: A moisture-binding ingredient that helps support lasting hydration and skin comfort.
• Glycerin: A humectant that attracts water to the skin and helps maintain moisture levels.
• Sodium Hyaluronate: Helps bind water and support a smoother, more supple-looking complexion.
• Rhizobian Gum: A polysaccharide ingredient incorporated into the mask's hydration-supporting complex.
• Biosaccharide Gum-1: Helps maintain hydration and skin comfort.
• Macadamia Seed Oil: A nourishing botanical oil that helps soften and condition the skin.
• Cotton Seed Oil: An emollient oil that supports suppleness and comfort.
• Sunflower Seed Oil: Provides additional skin-conditioning and lipid support.
• Vitamin E: Tocopheryl Acetate and Tocopherol provide antioxidant and conditioning benefits.

Questions We Get About Masque Visolastine+

What is Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine+?

Masque Visolastine+ is a long-lasting hydrating face mask from Biologique Recherche designed specifically for dehydrated Skin Instants.

It provides water to the outer layers of the epidermis while helping the skin maintain hydration throughout the day.

What does Masque Visolastine+ do?

Its primary role is hydration.

It helps improve skin moisture, softness, suppleness and comfort while supporting longer-lasting water retention.

Is Masque Visolastine+ for dry or dehydrated skin?

It is primarily designed for dehydrated skin, meaning skin that lacks water.

If persistent lipid deficiency and dryness are the larger concerns, Crème Masque Vernix VG may be more appropriate.

Can oily skin use Masque Visolastine+?

Yes.

Oily skin can absolutely be dehydrated because sebum and water are not the same thing.

If your skin produces oil but still feels tight or thirsty, hydration may still be needed.

Does Masque Visolastine+ help dehydration lines?

Improving hydration and suppleness can help soften the appearance of fine lines that become more visible when the skin lacks water.

We would distinguish dehydration lines from more established structural wrinkles.

Does Masque Visolastine+ strengthen the skin barrier?

Its current Biologique Recherche positioning focuses on supplying water and supporting moisture retention.

Because hydration and barrier function are closely connected, this helps support skin comfort, but we would not position Visolastine+ as primarily a barrier-repair mask.

For more intensive lipid and barrier-focused support, Crème Masque Vernix VG may be more appropriate.

How long does the hydration last?

Biologique Recherche describes Masque Visolastine+ as providing instant and long-lasting hydration, helping maintain moisture levels throughout the day.

How long should I leave Masque Visolastine+ on?

The current manufacturer instructions specify 15 minutes.

Should I rinse Masque Visolastine+ with warm or cold water?

The current Biologique Recherche instructions specify cold water.

Older descriptions frequently recommended a warm washcloth, but that is no longer the current manufacturer protocol.

How often should I use Masque Visolastine+?

Biologique Recherche's current consumer page does not prescribe one universal weekly frequency.

Use should reflect the needs of your current Skin Instant.

Can I use Masque Visolastine+ before an event?

Absolutely.

Hydrated skin generally appears smoother and more supple, so it can be a beautiful pre-event treatment — particularly if dehydration rather than dullness is your main concern.

For a stronger radiance-focused effect, Masque VIP O₂ may be the more targeted choice.

Is Masque Visolastine+ good after flying?

Yes, particularly when travel leaves your skin feeling tight or dehydrated.

Airplane cabins are extremely dry environments, making water-focused hydration especially relevant afterward.

Can I use Masque Visolastine+ after Lotion P50?

Within a typical Biologique Recherche routine, cleansing and the appropriate Lotion P50 prepare the skin before the mask stage.

If your skin is highly dehydrated or reactive, your Skin Instant should always determine how active the preparation step should be.

What is the difference between Masque Visolastine+ and Crème Masque Vernix VG?

Visolastine+ primarily addresses dehydration and water retention.

Crème Masque Vernix VG focuses more heavily on lipid deficiency, nourishment, protection and reconditioning stressed skin.

What is the difference between Masque Visolastine+ and Masque VIP O₂?

Visolastine+ is primarily a long-lasting hydration mask.

Masque VIP O₂ combines hydration with radiance, texture and broader skin-quality support.

Can I use Visolastine+ with Amniotique VG?

Yes.

They make a logical pairing when dehydration is the primary concern: Amniotique VG provides daily water-focused serum support, while Visolastine+ provides the intensive masking step.

Is Masque Visolastine+ still a “new” product?

No.

Although older retailer descriptions still refer to Visolastine+ as a new replacement for Masque Visolastine and Masque Visolastine E, that transition happened years ago.

We would no longer call the current product “new.”

Where can I buy authentic Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine+?

Biologique Recherche Masque Visolastine+ is available from Loshen & Crem online and at our Edmonton, Alberta boutique.

Our skin experts can also help determine whether Visolastine+, Crème Masque Vernix VG, Masque VIP O₂ or another Biologique Recherche mask is best suited to your current Skin Instant.
