Why This Recipe Works
This overnight gel wrap creates a breathable protective seal over the skin matrix. Hydrolyzed marine collagen and hyaluronic acid work in tandem with niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) to promote elasticity, soothe inflammation, and restore moisture balance. Thickened with natural gum to form a peelable film, it continuously drives hydration deep into the skin throughout the night.
Ingredients
Phase A (Aqueous Base & Actives)
2 tbsp Chamomile Extract / Hydrosol
2 tbsp Aloe Vera Gel
1 tsp Vegetable Glycerin
2 tsp Marine Collagen Liquid
1/2 tsp Hyaluronic Acid Powder
1/4 tsp Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)
1/4 tsp Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)
Phase B (Gelling, Preservation & Extras)
1/2 tsp Guar Gum (or Xanthan Gum)
3–5 drops Phenoxyethanol
1–2 drops Essential Oil (optional)
Optional for dry skin: 1/2 tsp Jojoba Oil or Rosehip Oil
Instructions
Step 1: Combine Base & Actives
In a clean glass bowl, mix together the Chamomile Extract, Aloe Vera Gel, and Vegetable Glycerin.
Stir in the Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid Powder, Niacinamide, and Panthenol.
Mix thoroughly until the dry active powders are completely dissolved into the liquids.
Step 2: Thicken & Preserve
Gradually sprinkle Guar Gum (or Xanthan Gum) over the mixture while whisking continuously to prevent clumping and form a cohesive gel.
Stir in Phenoxyethanol preservative, along with 1–2 drops of essential oil or booster oil if desired.
Transfer to an airtight jar and store in a cool, dry place. Apply a thin layer to clean skin, leave on overnight, and peel or rinse off in the morning.
What Are the Key Ingredients in This Collagen Wrapping Mask?
Each active ingredient provides targeted nightly skin restoration benefits:
Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen: Enhances surface skin firmness, smoothness, and flexibility while supporting natural elasticity.
Hyaluronic Acid Powder: Holds intense moisture within the upper epidermal layers to plump fine lines and restore overnight volume.
Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Strengthens the skin barrier, reduces redness, and visibly improves uneven skin tone.
Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Deeply restores hydration, speeds up skin repair, and calms overnight irritation.
Guar Gum / Xanthan Gum: Creates the smooth gel structure that forms the peel-off night wrap film across facial contours.
