Visit Mary & May Cica Houttuynia Tea Tree Calming Mask Aimed primarily at sensitive skin prone to redness, inflammation, or acne. The Mary & May brand offers a sheet mask designed to soothe, moisturize, and rebalance the skin barrier. Based on my analysis, the formula is particularly suitable for reactive, combination to oily skin, or skin with imperfections, thanks to the synergy of soothing and purifying active ingredients.
Formula Analysis: Key Assets
Three key ingredients stand out in this formula:
- Centella Asiatica : known for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties, it promotes skin repair and soothes irritation.
- Houttuynia Cordata : this Asian plant extract has antioxidant and purifying properties, ideal for limiting acne breakouts and strengthening the skin's defenses.
- Tea tree leaf extract : a natural antibacterial agent, it helps control the bacterial proliferation responsible for blemishes, while soothing redness.
The presence of hyaluronic acid (sodium hyaluronate) ensures optimal hydration, while allantoin and licorice reinforce the soothing effect. This combination of active ingredients explains the product's quality for skin prone to inflammation.
Tips and Application Ritual
I recommend applying this mask in the evening, on clean, dry skin, two to three times a week. Leave on for 10 to 20 minutes, then massage in any excess serum. It is compatible with moisturizing or repairing skincare products, but I would avoid combining it with powerful exfoliating active ingredients (AHAs, BHAs, retinoids) in the same routine to limit the risk of irritation.
My Final Verdict & Safety Opinion
This Mary & May mask stands out for its soothing and purifying properties, while offering good skin tolerance. Its fresh texture and fabric format are pleasant. The only downside is the presence of fragrance, which may be an issue for ultra-sensitive skin. In conclusion, it is an excellent choice for calming, moisturizing, and protecting blemish-prone skin.

All right!
Very satisfied with this fabric mask. I've tested other masks from the same brand and this is clearly the one that suits me best. As I have hormonal acne, I notice a real soothing effect: the inflammation is calmed and the skin is less reactive after use. I use it about 3-4 times a week, in the evening. The scent is quite strong but pleasant. The mask is soft, well soaked and perfectly suited to sensitive skin. A very good ally for soothing the skin.
