The Problem Solver

May Lindstrom Skin The Problem Solver – Warming Correcting Masque is a warming, powder-to-mousse treatment designed to support a ritual of cleansing and renewal. Its innovative formula activates upon contact with water, transforming into a mousse that delivers a sensory and restorative experience. Crafted for those seeking a mindful, hands-on approach to skincare, this masque offers a moment of warmth and tactile engagement while providing a deeply immersive self-care ritual.

Formulated with antioxidant-rich raw cacao, activated bamboo charcoal, clays, salts, and carefully selected herbs, The Problem Solver gently supports the skin and senses. The masque encourages a refreshed, luminous appearance, with each use offering the experience of nourishment, comfort, and rejuvenation. Its unique powder-to-mousse transformation allows for precise, just-in-time activation, creating a distinctive and enjoyable skincare ritual.

HOW TO USE IT

Use 2–3 times weekly. Blend one-half measured tablespoon of treatment powder with just shy of equal parts water to create a rich mousse. Apply evenly over clean skin and relax for 30 to 45 minutes. Rinse thoroughly in the shower, massaging in circular motions while facing into the water stream. Follow with The Youth Dew and The Blue Cocoon for a complete ritual. Tingling and temporary pinking of the skin are normal during exfoliation. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with water.
