Calming face mask, for tired, city-stressed skin needing quick rebalancing and comfort
Calming face mask, for tired, city-stressed skin needing quick rebalancing and comfort

For sensitive, stressed, or reactive skin that needs soothing alongside cleansing

Skin feels calmer, softer, and more comfortable immediately after use.

with Biodynamic Walnut Leaf

Walnut leaf is rich in juglone and quercetin with anti-inflammatory and astringent properties. It helps calm redness and tighten pores during masking while strengthening the skin's natural defenses against environmental irritants.

with Organic Chia Seed Oil

Chia oil delivers one of nature's highest concentrations of alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3). It replenishes the lipid barrier of sensitive, depleted skin while the mask is active, restoring the protective layer that keeps moisture in and irritants out.

with Blackcurrant Seed Oil

Rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a rare omega-6 fatty acid with proven anti-inflammatory properties, blackcurrant seed oil helps reduce the skin reactivity and redness that sensitive complexions experience.

with Rice Bran Oil

Rich in gamma-oryzanol and ferulic acid that provide potent antioxidant protection to freshly unmasked skin. Its lightweight molecular structure delivers deep nourishment without occluding pores, leaving the complexion supple and radiant rather than heavy or congested.

About Oway

What is Agricosmetica®?

Agricosmetica® is how Oway makes cosmetics: actives from biodynamic and certified organic farming, selected with care and processed in a circular system that turns waste into resources, from the field to the bottle.

What is Ortofficina?

Ortofficina is Oway’s farm in the hills of Bologna, farmed with biodynamic methods since the early 2000s. Many of the botanical actives in Oway formulas are grown there and harvested when each plant is at its peak.

What does biodynamic mean?

Biodynamic farming treats the farm as one living system. It builds soil fertility with compost and crop rotation, uses no synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, and times sowing and harvest to natural cycles. Oway grows its biodynamic actives at Ortofficina and with a network of biodynamic growers.

Why glass and aluminium?

Glass keeps out light, air and moisture, so a formula keeps its purity, potency and freshness, and nothing leaches into it. Oway replaced plastic with recyclable glass and aluminium for its bottles, jars and tubes, to cut single-use plastic.

Where is Oway made?

In Italy. Oway was founded in Bologna in 1948 and still develops its formulas there, close to its farm, Ortofficina.
