Masks are a very common skin care product whose main function is to replenish the skin quickly. Many people say that using face masks is an IQ tax. This is because most of the moisture of the skin is absorbed from the body, and the quality of the skin also depends on the congenital condition and physical health, and the mask is not very useful.

But is the mask really useless?

Of course this is not possible. The above is mainly aimed at young women in their teens and early twenties, so their skin is young and healthy, rich in moisture and collagen. In addition, the daily pressure is not large, generally I don’t go out very much when I go to school, and I don’t get sunburned, so my skin is naturally good.

At work, however, women can clearly feel that their skin condition is gradually deteriorating. Especially after the age of 25, the skin becomes dull and wrinkled, and after the age of 30, it becomes sagging and wrinkled. As a result, most of the skin's moisture is excreted from the body, but with age, the metabolic capacity declines, and internal hydration alone cannot meet the skin's needs, and skin care products play a greater role. What's more, a moisturizing mask is more important. This is essential.

Skin ages faster and faster, especially with a reduced metabolic capacity, and the lower the water content, the older it gets. Especially the dehydrated skin turns yellow and loses its color, which promotes the secretion of melanin, and the accumulation of melanin causes age spots.

Of course, there are many other uses for masks besides hydration. For example, shrink pores, detoxify the skin, and replenish nutrients. Since the mask is an intensive skin care method, and the condition of the skin changes significantly after each application, there is no doubt about the role of the mask. However, because of this, the mask is not suitable for daily use and should only be used every 3-5 times.

If you want to improve the hydration and absorption capacity of the mask, you can use a small amount of toner or essence before applying the mask, and pay attention to cleaning. In order to avoid mask lines, it is recommended to lie in bed and wait for the time to apply the mask after taking a shower at night.

So why are face masks so popular?

First of all, after applying the mask, you can intuitively feel that the skin becomes smooth and soft. Applying the mask for 15 minutes can improve the skin. Of course girls will be happy to pay! Applying a mask gives the girl a "ceremonial sense". When she comes home from get off work, she sits on the sofa and applies the mask. A delicate woman has to do it every day~

Is every mask useful?

There are many types of masks on the market, all of which function the same, but the most reliable one is moisturizing. Hydration is the easiest to see, so you can clearly see that your skin is hydrated after applying the mask.

1. Whitening mask

For the whitening function, the best whitening products take 30 days to work. If you feel that there is obvious whitening after applying the mask, you must consider whether the ingredients of the mask are safe.

2, mask acne

Common acne-removing ingredients are ineffective in a short period of time, and they are slowly absorbed into the face, and you need to wash your face after applying the mask, so it is worth considering which ingredients are used to eliminate acne.

3. Cleansing Mask

After wearing the mask, the pores swell, and the adsorption components of the mask absorb the dirt in the pores and play a cleaning role. That's why 90% of face masks on the market are primarily hydration.

How to hydrate the mask?

When the stratum corneum is dehydrated, some of the ingredients in the mask can penetrate the skin well and can hydrate. However, this hydration process is mandatory and requires control of the amount used.

Do I need to wear a mask every day?

can not! The stratum corneum is almost every barrier in our body that protects itself and prevents water loss. The protective function of the stratum corneum is established through a series of biochemical reactions in the body. By keeping the stratum corneum very moist for a long time, these biochemical reactions may be inhibited - instead, the skin barrier function is impaired.

How often do I need to apply the mask?

According to clinical medical experience, masks can only be used for a maximum of 3-5 days.

How long to wear a mask?

15 minutes is recommended. As mentioned earlier, excessive hydration can damage the skin barrier, and prolonged use of the mask can inhibit the response of the stratum corneum and damage the stratum corneum.
