What Is Glutathione — and Why Is It in Our Face Film?

What Is Glutathione — and Why Is It in Our Face Film?

Glutathione is an antioxidant naturally found in the human body.

It is made from three amino acids — glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine — and plays a role in the body’s antioxidant system.

In skincare, glutathione is used in formulas designed to support a brighter-looking, more even, and healthy-looking complexion.

So why did House of B choose it for the Glutathione Face Film?

Because it fit the kind of focused skin prep we wanted to create.

 

 

For the days when your skin needs a little more

Skin does not look exactly the same every day.

Sometimes your usual routine is enough.

Other times, your skin can look dull, dry, tired, or simply less refreshed than you want it to.

And sometimes that happens right before a moment when you would rather look your best.

A meeting.
A date.
A trip.
A wedding.
A presentation.
A photo day.

The Glutathione Face Film was created for those moments.

Focused skin prep for the hours — or the night — before what comes next.

 

Why glutathione?

Glutathione is widely recognized for its antioxidant properties, which has made it an ingredient of growing interest in skincare.

For House of B, it was a natural fit for a formula focused on visible radiance and dull, tired-looking skin.

But the formula was never designed around glutathione alone.

The Glutathione Face Film brings together glutathione, niacinamide, collagen, amino acids, and moisturizing and skin-conditioning ingredients across its 2-Step routine.

Rather than relying on one hero ingredient to tell the whole story, we designed the formula around the overall skin-prep experience.

Why pair it with a collagen hydrogel film?

The transparent Face Film contains collagen as part of its hydrogel formula, giving the mask its distinctive flexible, skin-fitting texture.

After the Step 1 ampoule is applied, the collagen hydrogel film is layered on top to complete the treatment.

The result is a focused routine designed to leave skin looking:

  • Hydrated
  • Smoother
  • Refreshed
  • More radiant
  • Plumper-looking

Why Does Face Film Use a 2-Step System?

When should you use it?

The Glutathione Face Film does not have to be part of an everyday routine.

Think of it as something to reach for when your skin could use extra preparation.

Wear it for 1–3 hours when you want focused skin prep during the day, or leave it on overnight when you want to make it part of your nighttime routine.

Use it before the moments when you want your skin to look a little more ready.

Because sometimes skincare is not about adding more to your routine.

It is about knowing what to reach for before it matters.
