Key actives
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizateactive
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. On this sheet mask's own ingredient list it is named sixteenth.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. The panel names it eighteenth on this sheet mask's list, beside Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate.
Caffeineactive
Caffeine constricts small blood vessels near the surface, which is why eye products use it for the look of puffiness and shadow. It is water soluble and works only while it is on the skin. The panel names it twenty-seventh on this sheet mask's list, beside Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate.
Phytosphingosinebarrier lipid
Phytosphingosine is the backbone every ceramide is built on, and skin uses it in its own lipid layer. In a formula it works with ceramides and cholesterol and also keeps the product stable against microbes. The panel names it twentieth on this sheet mask's list, beside Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate.
Ceramide NPbarrier lipid
Ceramide NP is the most used cosmetic ceramide, the same class of lipid that makes up roughly half the mortar between cells in the outer layer of skin. Added to a cream it slots into that structure, which is why ceramide formulas feel less leaky rather than merely greasy. The panel names it twenty-first on this sheet mask's list, beside Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate.
How to use
- Use this product AM and/or PM, as the its place in a routine. Pat or smooth it on rather than rubbing, and give it a moment to settle before layering the next step.
Where does this sheet mask go in my routine?
After toner, in place of your serum step, in the evening. Toner goes on before it, and the rest of the routine goes on after you take the sheet mask off. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate and not three changes at once.
What else is on the list besides Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate?
Allantoin, Caffeine and Phytosphingosine. The order they are printed in on this sheet mask's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Ceramide NP, Beta-Glucan and Biosaccharide Gum-1.

How it works
The Birch Moisture Mask is a sheet mask, used after toner, in place of your serum step, in the evening. The active it is built around is Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, named sixteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Allantoin, Caffeine and Phytosphingosine, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the sheet mask format rather than by the list alone. Anua sells this Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate sheet mask in Korea, and this is that version.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this sheet mask on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate on the list.
- Introduce this sheet mask on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate rather than to three changes at once.

It has also been proven that caffeine stimulates lipolysis, which Lupo et al postulated may contribute to improvements in lower eyelid sagging and puffiness.
