Dr.Melaxin TX Astaxanthin Overnight Wrapping Mask 80ml
Polyvinyl alcohol sits fourth and Niacinamide fifth in this 80 ml Dr. Melaxin overnight mask, so it sets into a film rather than staying wet, with Tranexamic Acid, Glutathione and collagen behind them. Worn overnight as the last step. Korean-market formula.

Key actives
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. On this sheet mask's own ingredient list it is named fifth.
Tranexamic Acidactive
Tranexamic Acid is a synthetic amino acid derivative used for the look of stubborn discolouration and post-blemish marks. It is water soluble, stable and comfortable next to niacinamide, which is how it is usually paired. It is named twenty-second on this sheet mask's list, alongside Niacinamide.
Cyanocobalaminvitamin
Cyanocobalamin is vitamin B12, and it is a deep pink-red, which is why a formula carrying it often has a colour nobody added on purpose. It is used as a conditioning vitamin. The panel names it fifteenth on this sheet mask's list, beside Niacinamide.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. The panel names it fourteenth on this sheet mask's list, beside Niacinamide.
Haematococcus Pluvialis Oilantioxidant
An algae extract that is the main natural source of astaxanthin, the deep red carotenoid. It is used as a plant antioxidant and colours a formula orange-red. The panel names it twentieth on this sheet mask's list, beside Niacinamide.
How to use
- Use it by unfolding it over clean skin and leaving it on for the stated time, working it into the skin in the position this sheet mask occupies in a full routine, and following up with the next step once it has settled.
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 Niacinamide and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market sheet mask or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Niacinamide and all. We match this sheet mask to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this sheet mask contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Fragrance. It sits on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this sheet mask is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Niacinamide?
Tranexamic Acid, Cyanocobalamin and Tocopherol. The order they are printed in on this sheet mask's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Niacinamide sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Haematococcus Pluvialis Oil, Resveratrol and Glutathione.

How it works
The TX Astaxanthin Overnight Wrapping Mask is a 80ml sheet mask, used after toner, in place of your serum step, in the evening. The active it is built around is Niacinamide, named fifth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Tranexamic Acid, Cyanocobalamin and Tocopherol, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Niacinamide stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the sheet mask format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the sheet mask Dr. Melaxin sells in Korea, Niacinamide and all.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this sheet mask on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Niacinamide on the list.
- This list names Fragrance, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
