-
Moisture Rescue Mask is a nourishing in-shower mask that replenishes missing essential lipids to restore hair’s moisture barrier. Used once or twice a week in place of conditioner, it tames frizz + flyaways; smooths ends; and leaves hair silky-soft + resilient, with protection against dryness that lasts through multiple washes.
-
You should use Moisture Rescue Mask if your hair is dry, brittle, or damaged from color treatments, chemical processing, heat styling, or just everyday wear and tear. If your hair still feels parched after conditioning, this mask is the deep treatment for you.
-
Your hair’s moisture barrier is the protective lipid layer [a film of natural fat that locks in hydration] that coats every strand. Washing, heat styling, color processing + regular handling all strip those lipids away. Once that barrier is depleted, moisture can escape from strands, leaving hair rough, dry + brittle. A healthy moisture barrier is what keeps hair soft, shiny + resilient.
-
Moisture Rescue Mask uses Smart Barrier HairTech, a biomimetic blend that replenishes the essential lipids your hair has lost by mimicking the ones healthy hair naturally produces. The formula then seals the hair fiber, restoring its hydrophobicity [its ability to repel water] so the moisture you’ve restored stays put, wash after wash.
-
Moisture Rescue Mask delivers rapid results: 90% of users feel smoother, more moisturized hair after a single use. One five-minute application is enough to see a noticeable difference in your hair’s softness, resilience + manageability, and your hair will continue to improve with repeated use.
-
Moisture Rescue Mask protects against dryness for up to three washes.
-
To use Moisture Rescue Mask, apply it to clean, wet hair after shampooing, concentrating product from mid-lengths to ends. Let it sit for at least five minutes [longer if your hair needs extra care], then rinse thoroughly. You can skip conditioner on days that you use this mask, as the treatment takes its place.
-
Use Moisture Rescue Mask once or twice a week [depending on how damaged your hair is] in place of your regular conditioner.
-
Yes, on the days that you use it, Moisture Rescue Mask should replace your conditioner. Shampoo, apply the mask, let it sit for a few minutes, rinse, and you’re done.
-
Moisture Rescue Mask is a deeper conditioning treatment than Living Proof’s other conditioners, with a rich emulsion that combines conditioning emollients with a biomimetic blend of essential lipids that rebuilds your hair’s moisture barrier. Because it’s so rich, you should only use Moisture Rescue Mask once or twice a week; Living Proof’s other conditioners are designed for more regular [even daily] use.
-
Both Moisture Rescue Mask and Triple Bond Complex repair + strengthen hair, but target different haircare challenges. Moisture Rescue Mask is a rinse-out conditioner replacement that rebuilds your moisture barrier for softer, hydrated hair. While it dramatically improves the condition of damaged hair, it’s not meant to repair it at the structural level. Triple Bond Complex is a weekly, intensive treatment that repairs the chemical bonds within each strand. It makes hair 8x stronger + is clinically proven to reverse a year’s worth of damage in one use, with heat protection up to 450°F/232°C. For the ultimate in damage repair, try adding both products to your haircare routine.
-
Yes, Moisture Rescue Mask is safe for color-treated + chemically treated hair; it’s also keratin treatment-safe, as well. You can use it without worrying about your color or the wear of your salon services. In fact, coloring and chemical processing both deplete hair’s moisture barrier, which makes Moisture Rescue Mask a smart choice if you do either on a regular basis.
-
Yes, Moisture Rescue Mask is safe to use on extensions. However, tape-in extension adhesives can vary between installs, so check with your stylist to make sure the mask is compatible with yours.
-
Moisture Rescue Mask has a pH of 4.0–5.5. This slightly acidic range is close to hair’s natural pH, which helps the cuticle lie smooth + flat as the mask does its job.
-
Yes, Moisture Rescue Mask is vegan + cruelty-free. The formula contains no animal-derived ingredients, and Living Proof does not test on animals.
-
Yes, Moisture Rescue Mask is silicone-free, as well as sulfate-, paraben-, phthalate-, and oil-free. Its softness comes from replenishing lipids rather than a silicone coating, so hair feels soft + moisturized instead of slicked over.
-
Moisture Rescue Mask has a soft floral fragrance. The scent is subtle + clean, designed to feel fresh without lingering heavily throughout the day.
