What is the Lierac Glow Fresh Revitalizing Express Mask used for?
Lierac Glow Fresh Revitalizing Express Mask is a gel-cream face mask that can be applied and then removed or left on to be absorbed. Its formula combines a duo of high- and low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acids, a tulip flower extract developed over twelve years of research and covered by a patent filed by Lierac, and hydrating sugars extracted from almonds, marshmallow roots, and flaxseeds. It is formulated with 94% naturally derived ingredients. The mask is part of Glow Fresh, Lierac’s line of melt-in, fresh, and lightweight textures, built around hyaluronic acid and this tulip extract, alongside a serum, two creams, and a lip gloss.
This mask is primarily intended for skin that is dehydrated and appears tired. It takes over from facial moisturizers when the skin needs a more concentrated boost: its dual hyaluronic acids intensely hydrate, plump, and smooth the skin’s texture, while hydrating sugars help preserve moisture and protect the skin’s surface. In a clinical study conducted on 30 volunteers, after one month of use, 90% of participants found their skin to be hydrated, 74% found their skin texture to be smoother, and 71% found their skin to be plumped.
Another benefit of the mask is its ability to enhance radiance. Once the mask is removed, the complexion appears more luminous, revealing a healthy glow that day creams don’t always provide. The fresh, non-greasy, and non-sticky gel-cream texture is easy to apply and absorbs completely without leaving a film, leaving the skin soft, supple, and radiant. Tulip extract, chosen for its antioxidant properties, helps preserve this radiance. The fragrance combines a fresh accord of bamboo water, enhanced by bergamot, with luminous floral notes, creating a pleasant skincare experience rather than a purely technical routine.
Its short application time makes it easy to incorporate into your routine without disrupting it: in the evening after removing makeup, in the morning before a busy day, or just before heading out, while styling your hair or getting dressed. It’s also ideal in winter, when heating and cold weather dry out the skin, upon returning from vacation, or after a period of fatigue that leaves the complexion looking dull. It’s used on the face alone, without a sheet mask or any accessories, and works just as well as part of a regular skincare routine as it does for occasional use, the day before an event or a photo shoot.
A mask works best when the skin’s surface is clean. We recommend using the Jonzac Gentle Exfoliating Gel beforehand: this microbead facial scrub removes impurities and dead skin cells accumulated on the surface—something the mask does not do. Once this layer has been removed, the skin absorbs the gel-cream more evenly. Rinse off the exfoliator before applying the mask.

Our expert tips on the Glow Fresh Hydrating Mask
The most common mistake with a hydrating mask is to treat it as a standalone skincare product. It provides a temporary boost but does not replace your daily moisturizer: once you’ve removed any excess, apply your usual moisturizer to lock in the benefits. Leaving the mask on longer than recommended offers no additional benefits and exposes the skin to more fragrance. Apply it to clean skin after removing makeup; never apply it over daytime makeup. For sensitive skin, the warning about fragrance allergens takes precedence over everything else.
This mask improves the appearance of dull, dehydrated skin; it does not treat skin that is peeling, itchy, or persistently red. If discomfort returns despite a regular moisturizing routine, the issue is no longer one of supplemental skincare: a medical consultation can help confirm that no underlying skin condition is causing this dryness.
FAQ
How many times a week should I use the Glow Fresh Express Revitalizing Mask?
Lierac does not specify a frequency. The brand’s clinical evaluation followed a regimen of two applications per week for one month, which serves as a reasonable guideline; using it less frequently is also possible.
Can I leave the Glow Fresh Express Revitalizing Mask on overnight?
It is not designed as a night mask: the brand recommends a short application time, and there is no evidence to suggest any additional benefit from leaving a thick layer on for several hours.
Is the Glow Fresh Revitalizing Express Mask suitable for my sensitive skin?
The brand markets it for all skin types and states that it has been dermatologically tested. This testing does not mean that a reaction is impossible: those with reactive skin should first refer to the precautions regarding fragrance.
Can I apply makeup after using the Glow Fresh Revitalizing Express Mask?
Yes: once the excess has been removed or absorbed and your usual skincare routine has been applied, you can apply makeup as usual. It’s best to let the product have time to absorb before applying foundation to prevent it from sliding off.
