Pearl extract: Does care with pearls have to shimmer?

When many people think of pearls, they first think of a fine shimmer. However, pearl extract in a mask doesn’t automatically mean that glitter will be left on your skin. Pearl Extract is an extract that the COSMILE ingredient database classifies as an antioxidant: It can help limit oxygen-related changes in ingredients in a formula. From this alone no visible effect on wrinkles or pigment spots can be derived.

An example is the MISSHA Airy Fit Sheet Mask Pearl . In addition to pearl extract, its creamy essence also contains glycerin and sodium hyaluronate, a form of hyaluronic acid. After cleansing, leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes and then gently pat in the remaining essence. You don’t need to wash them off. This means the application remains manageable, even if there is a particularly valuable ingredient on the packaging.

Text of the EU notice

Minimum two-year legal guarantee protection for goods sold in the European Union.

Consumers can claim their rights under the legal guarantee of conformity, for example if goods:

  • do not match the description;
  • do not function as intended.

Sellers are liable for any lack of conformity which existed when the goods were delivered, and which becomes apparent within the legal guarantee period. Sellers in such a situation are required to offer:

  • free repair or free replacement;
  • in some cases, a price reduction or full reimbursement.

Some countries have a longer legal guarantee period. For second-hand goods, a shorter period may apply, but not less than one year.

For more information on your rights in a specific country, scan the QR code below or ask the seller.

What to do if you receive non-conforming goods:

  1. Contact the seller as soon as possible to report the issue;
  2. Provide proof of purchase, such as a receipt, invoice, or bank statement.

Sellers and producers may also offer commercial guarantees, which apply independently from the legal guarantee. For example, you may see this GARAN label representing a commercial guarantee of durability offered by the producer at no additional cost and covering the entire good.
