Rapid Response Detox Masque

Rapid Response Detox Masque by Renée Rouleau is an award-winning acne treatment that quickly rids bacteria and oil from deep within pores to prevent and clear away blemishes while instantly calming surface redness and irritation. When used at the first signs of breakouts or a few days before your monthly cycle, this groundbreaking anti-inflammatory gel face masque for acne will effectively disrupt the visible blemish cycle to encourage smoother skin with fewer noticeable bumps. The result? Calmer, clearer, more even-toned skin by Renee Rouleau.

For maximum results, prior to using this masque, remove surface cellular buildup with an exfoliant like Triple Berry Smoothing Peel.This will ensure the pore-clearing, blemish-fighting ingredients penetrate deep within the skin's surface. For clearing stubborn chin and jawline breakouts fast and preventing new ones from appearing, we suggest using our Chin Breakout Treatment Kit: a combo of our two best hormonal breakout-busting products. We offer the Rapid Response and Triple Berry as a set with our Rapid/Peel Duo. For maintenance, it's best to use an exfoliating serum like BHA Clarifying Serum or Pore + Wrinkle Perfecting Serum a few times a week in the evening to keep the skin even-toned and prevent the pores from getting congested.

Pair with Rapid Response Detox Cleanser and Toner for even more acne-fighting benefits. All three products in the Rapid Response Detox Line are included in our Rapid Response Detox Kit.

  • This mask can also be used after cleansing in the evening and left on for five minutes before proceeding with your regular nighttime routine. It takes just five minutes for the anti-bacterial effect to work. 
  • Did You Know? Just before the start of a woman's cycle, there is more progesterone in the skin causing water retention resulting in the skin appearing more puffy. When this occurs, it puts pressure on the pores and creates a narrower pore lining. Additionally, oil can get thicker because of the imbalance of hormones and increase of testosterone during the pre-period hormonal shift. When you have thicker oil trying to get through a narrower opening, this is creates an environment within the skin where breakouts can now begin. Rapid Response Detox Masque is the perfect solution to use daily a few days before the start of your cycle.
