Esthemax Hydrojelly Mask in Papamoa
The Esthemax Hydrojelly Mask is a $25 add-on at Pause by Mel that adds about 15 minutes to your facial. It goes on cool and sets to a soft jelly over your skin, holding hydration and nutrients in rather than letting them evaporate off. It is also part of The Tailored Pause.

What does a Hydrojelly mask do?
Holds hydration in
The jelly seals over the serum underneath it, so what Mel puts on your skin stays there and works instead of drying off into the air.
Soothes and settles
It is genuinely cool on the face, which takes the heat out of skin that has just been cleansed, steamed and exfoliated.
Boosts radiance
Skin looks plumper and brighter straight afterwards. That part is immediate, which is why it is the add-on most people book again.
Locks in nutrients
The mask carries its own actives and holds the ones already on your skin against it for the full fifteen minutes.
Adding it to your facial
Tell Mel when you book, or decide on the day once she has had a look at your skin. If you would rather have everything at once, The Tailored Pause already includes the Hydrojelly Mask alongside LED light therapy.
