For some reason, since the rapid growth of injection and hardware aesthetics, experts in the beauty sector slightly despise those who are willing to maintain skin conditions at home.
It is believed that the use of the anti-wrinkle face mask is ineffective, but in vain. A confident plant therapist claims that you simply don't know how to cook them correctly.
Rules for using anti-wrinkle masks
In order for the mask to be used at home to be effective, a number of prerequisites must be met.
- Prepare your face.How many times have they said that cleansing is the key to healthy skin. However, for a number of reasons, many women either skip this stage or do not treat it with care. And, however, the cleansed skin "works" after applying the mask to be 30% more effective. Remember, before you apply the product to your face, first clean your skin with lotion or toner. For oily skin, makeup dirt and residue is washed away with foam or exfoliants, and for dry skin - with plain water.
- Prepare the ingredients of the mask.45% of all allergic reactions in women occur because they fail to check the expiration date of the ingredients of the wrinkle mask. And this must be done. And it is advisable to use only natural ingredients. It is best to test for allergies first by applying a small amount of the mask to the crook's elbow. If after 15 minutes without an allergic reaction, you can safely use.
- Application of the product.The mask should be gently applied to the face with clean hands. The mechanism is as follows: the composition is applied from the bottom up along the massage line (from the neck to the hairline). Then move from the nasolabial fold to the earlobe and from the chin to the earlobe. The next layer should be applied to the area around the lips and eyes. If the mask contains active ingredients, do not apply them to the lips and eye area. After applying the product fully, inhale and exhale several times. You can lie down and close your eyes. Be aware that certain masks, especially those made with berries and fruit, leak, so try to protect your clothes first. You should wrap your hair in a shower cap and cover your shoulder and chest with a towel.
- "Lifespan" of the mask.It takes about half an hour on average to keep the mask from wrinkling, which is enough time for the active ingredients to begin working on the upper layers of the epidermis. However, if you experience burning, itching or redness, or hives, rinse the mask off with water immediately. As a precaution, take a mild anti-allergy medication, and if possible, see your doctor.
- Remove the mask.The ideal first option is to gently remove the mask with a wet towel or sponge, this is known as a gentle cleansing. And only then rinse with cold or warm water, do not use soap. If you have dry skin, the anti-wrinkle mask is washed off with warm water, but for oily skin products, you should rinse it off with cold water. After removing the remnants of the mask, a moisturizer should be applied to the skin of the face.
What kind of cream should I choose for my face?
- For dry skin, choose a cream with a thick texture to deeply nourish your skin.
- For oily skin, a cream with a zinc ingredient that acts as a duller is suitable.
- But hypoallergenic products have been shown to be excellent in the care of sensitive skin.
