Face mask
The face mask is the intensive treatment that your skin needs: it is applied to the skin and left to sit for a certain period of time before being rinsed off or removed. Face masks are generally used to target specific concerns such as dryness, dullness, acne, or aging.
What is this used for?
Many facial masks contain ingredients such as clay, charcoal, or AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids), which can help absorb excess sebum, minimize pores, and exfoliate dead Skin cells.
Others help provide hydration and nourishment, and are formulated with ingredients such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or aloe vera. They may contain active ingredients such as vitamin C or retinol, which stimulate collagen production.
Which one should I choose?
You can choose between different types of masks: rinse-off, cloth, peel-off, and overnight masks.
Each type of mask has a range of benefits and is best suited to specific skin types and needs. For example, cloth masks are convenient and easy to use, and excellent for delivering a hydration boost to the skin. Peel-off masks are great for exfoliating and brightening the skin, while overnight masks are perfect for delivering deep hydration and nourishment while you sleep.
How to apply it
Before using a face mask, cleanse your face and remove all traces of makeup. Apply the mask following the instructions on the packaging, and leave it on for the recommended time. Remove or rinse off the mask with warm water and pat your Skin dry with a clean towel. Follow up with a toner and moisturizer to seal in the treatment’s benefits.
Most face masks can be used once or twice a week: make it your weekly pampering treat for yourself and your Skin.
