How much heartleaf is actually in this?

Abib's Korean panel declares Houttuynia cordata extract at 100 ppm, which is one hundredth of one per cent. That is a real, named inclusion rather than a headline dose, so the heartleaf name is best read as the identity of this particular green sachet. The three masks in the line differ mainly by their botanical: heartleaf here, Jericho rose and sedum in the other two sachets.

The range is called Collagen Gel Mask. How much collagen is there?

The brand's panel declares collagen extract at 0.1 ppm. Abib describes that material as a vegan collagen produced by fermenting yeast, and the mask carries Italian V-Label certification. At one part in ten million, though, the collagen reads as a line identity rather than a working dose. The peptide Abib genuinely puts forward on the pack is Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5, which sits at the very end of the ingredient list.

Will it suit skin that reacts easily?

There is no fragrance, alcohol or essential oil anywhere on the panel, and the no-mesh build means no woven backing rubs the face. Abib has completed a primary irritation test on sensitive skin through an external clinical centre. The tail of the list does carry mint, thyme and zanthoxylum botanicals in trace amounts, so patch test first if those tend to bother you.

What do Abib's pore numbers actually measure?

An external clinical centre measured twenty-three people immediately before and after a single use in February 2023. Pore area, pore volume and elasticity across the pore area all improved. Abib labels the change immediate and temporary in its own copy, and that wording matters: these are same-session readings on a cooled, hydrated face, not a lasting change in pore size.

Why does the sheet tear so easily?

Because there is no support layer. A conventional sheet mask has a woven or fibre backing that carries the essence; here the sheet is the set essence itself. Abib warns that catching it on a fingernail or tugging it will tear it. Open the sachet, peel both films, and lay it on from the lower half upward instead of stretching it into place.

Where does it fit in a routine?

After cleansing and toner, ahead of your remaining steps. It is a single sheet meant to be used the moment it is opened, because a hydrogel sheet gives up its water quickly once exposed to open air. Twenty to thirty minutes is the window Abib gives for it. Pat the residue in rather than rinsing it away, then carry on with your serum and moisturiser as usual.

PRODUCT DETAILS

Abib's Collagen Gel Mask in Heartleaf Jelly is a hydrogel sheet rather than a soaked cloth one. The essence is thinly set into a jelly that holds its own shape, so no woven carrier sits between the formula and your face. Abib calls this a no-mesh sheet, and the point of it is friction: nothing fibrous rests against the skin while you wear it.

The green jelly is the heartleaf edition of a three-sachet line. Houttuynia cordata is the botanical it is named for, and it sits alongside the calming group Abib puts front and centre on the pack: centella asiatica leaf extract, panthenol and calamine. Xylitol and apple mint leaf extract account for the cool feel as the sheet settles, and kaolin sits mid-list with the tannin-bearing botanicals.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 is the peptide Abib actually highlights. The collagen extract the range is named after is declared at 0.1 ppm, so read the name as a line identity rather than an active dose. Abib describes that collagen as vegan and yeast-fermented, and holds an Italian V-Label certification for the mask.

It is a single 35 g sheet, worn embossed side down for twenty to thirty minutes, and it suits combination and oily skin after a long or warm day. Nothing on the panel is fragrance, alcohol or essential oil.

Concerns & Benefits

Your Concerns

1
Enlarged Pores
Kaolin and the tannin-bearing botanicals sit behind Abib's own immediate, temporary pore measurements.
2
Dehydration
A jelly sheet of set essence holds humectants against the skin for the whole twenty-minute wear.

How To Use

1Cleanse, then smooth the skin with a toner.
2Peel the film away from both sides of the sheet.
3Lay the lower half on first, centred on the mouth, then the upper half centred on the eyes, and press it down. The embossed face goes against the skin.
4Leave it in place for twenty to thirty minutes.
5Lift the sheet off and pat in whatever essence is left behind. There is nothing to rinse. Because the sheet is set essence with no backing layer, it will tear if it catches a fingernail or is stretched into position. Use it straight after opening, since it dries quickly in air. Avoid the eye area, and skip it on broken skin.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a sheet mask or a wash-off mask?

It is a sheet mask, and specifically a hydrogel one. Abib sets the essence thinly into a jelly sheet that holds its own shape, so there is no woven cloth behind it and nothing to rinse afterwards. You peel the films away, lay the sheet on, leave it twenty to thirty minutes, then lift it off and pat in whatever essence remains on the skin.
