Can gel masks be used repeatedly? We all know that gel masks remain moisturizing after use. Since gel masks remain moisturizing after use, can they be used repeatedly? Let’s take a look at it together.

Can gel masks be used repeatedly?

Facial masks cannot be reused as they are prone to bacteria growth. You cannot use a facial mask again after using it once. A used facial mask will be contaminated with bacteria and stains left on it from the last use, so it cannot be used. Even if a mask has been opened for a while and not used, it will breed bacteria. If you think it is too wasteful, you can use the excess essence to apply it on your body to make full use of it.

Should I apply skin care or mask first?

There is no concept of order between facial masks and skin care, because the facial mask itself is one of the most important steps in skin care. Different facial masks also require different preparations. For example, for a sheet-type facial mask, you can try using some toner to soothe the pores before use, which can also serve as a secondary cleansing. If it is a mud or paste mask, you need to apply toner to make the skin care effect better.

Mask Misconceptions

When applying a facial mask, some people worry that the essence will be wasted, so they keep the mask on their face for too long. This is actually wrong, because the part of the mask essence that can be absorbed by human skin is actually limited. There is no benefit in applying the mask for too long, and it will also cause dry and dehydrated skin. You can try using the excess essence on the neck, arms, and even legs.

You may think it is unnecessary to wash your face too clean before applying a facial mask. In fact, doing so will not only have no beauty effect, but will also cause many skin problems. If the residual makeup oil, dust and dirt on the face are not cleaned, it will affect the absorption of the mask ingredients and clog the pores, causing redness, swelling, pimples and acne. Therefore, thorough facial cleansing is very necessary.
