How long should I apply the gel mask before washing it off?

If it's sticky and uncomfortable, just wash it off. This type of mask is generally used in summer because it has a cooling and hydrating effect, and it is easy to get glowing skin after applying it! But please note that 15-20 minutes is enough! If you continue like this, your face will be in trouble. Wash it off quickly!

How many times a week should you apply a facial mask?

Cleansing mask: When we talk about cleansing masks, most of them are mud masks. The cleansing mask itself has strong adhesion, so it can absorb oil and dirt, so it actually has a certain effect on the skin. If used frequently, it may cause sebum to become thinner, resulting in red blood streaks and other symptoms. Therefore, it is sufficient to use a cleansing mask once or twice a week.

Hydrating mask: Hydrating mask is the one we apply most frequently, and its main function is to hydrate. For this harmless facial mask, there is no problem in applying it every day, because it only replenishes the skin's moisture. Even if you don't apply the mask, you can use toner and lotion every day. In fact, the principle is the same.

Whitening mask: If the skin has poor tolerance, applying a whitening mask will be a bit irritating, because the ingredients in the whitening mask are more or less irritating, which is similar to the whitening essence. Therefore, it cannot be applied frequently. If your skin has strong tolerance, 2-3 times a week is fine. If your skin tolerance is relatively poor, you have to consider it yourself.
