Key facts

Who it is for

• People with oily, combination or congested skin who want a hydrating mask that also targets pores
• Clients of UK aesthetic clinics looking for a post-procedure repair sheet (laser, IPL, microneedling, peel, RF, light injectables) when the skin has fully closed
• Skin with visible dullness, blackheads, blocked pores or post-acne marks
• Existing users of the FuERJIA (敷尔佳 / VOOLGA) or KEFUMEI (可复美) Chinese medical-mask category who want the charcoal-substrate option

Not suitable for: broken, weeping or actively infected skin; known allergy to any ingredient on the label; the eye area; immediately after aggressive ablative procedures where the practitioner has advised waiting.

How to use

1. Cleanse the face with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Do not apply active serum first.
2. Open one sachet, unfold the black charcoal sheet, and place it over the face, aligning the eye, nose and mouth cut-outs.
3. Smooth out air bubbles and leave on for 15–20 minutes.
4. Remove the sheet. Gently pat the remaining essence into the skin — do not rinse.
5. Follow with moisturiser. Use 2–3 times per week, or daily during the first 3–5 days after a clinic procedure when the practitioner confirms it is safe.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the VOOLGA Black Mask and the White Film?

Both are medical-grade sodium hyaluronate dressings from the same brand. The White Film is the classic hydrating, calming, post-procedure repair option. The Black Mask is built on a bamboo-charcoal sheet, with a thicker essence concentration, and is positioned for skin that also has pore congestion, oiliness or post-acne dullness.

Can I use it right after microneedling, laser or a peel?

Yes, once your practitioner confirms the skin is closed and not actively bleeding. The Black Mask is commonly used in the first 3–5 days after a procedure to support barrier recovery and reduce downtime. If skin is still raw or weeping, choose the White Film or wait until your clinician approves.

How often should I use it as part of a normal routine?

For routine skincare, 2–3 times per week is sufficient. Daily use is reserved for the immediate post-procedure window or short-term flare-ups, and should not be continued indefinitely.

Will the charcoal stain my pillow or skin?

No. The charcoal is embedded in the non-woven sheet substrate — it does not transfer to skin or fabric. The essence itself is clear.

Is VOOLGA the same brand as FuERJIA?

Yes. VOOLGA is the international brand name used by FuERJIA (敷尔佳), one of China's leading medical-dressing skincare manufacturers — so the Black Mask and the FuERJIA White Film are from the same company. KEFUMEI (可复美) is a separate brand in the same medical-mask category and is often grouped together with FuERJIA / VOOLGA by Chinese diaspora customers, but has its own manufacturer and ingredient profile.

Is this an authentic VOOLGA product?

Yes. Ways Pharmacy stocks the mask in its original Chinese packaging from authorised supply. Each sachet is individually sealed and single-use.
