When applying facial masks, we often hear people around us tell us to avoid the area around the eyes. So why should facial masks be applied away from the area around the eyes? Why should mud masks be used away from the eye area? What will happen if you don’t avoid the eye area when applying a facial mask?

Why should mud masks be used to avoid the eye area?

Mud masks should be applied away from the eye area, not just because you are afraid that the essence of the mask will accidentally get into the eyes and cause irritation and damage to the eyes. The most critical thing is that the skin around the eyes is too delicate. If you use mud masks or facial masks, it will not only fail to nourish the eyes, but may also cause blockage of the eye pores, which is quite troublesome.

Reasons to avoid the eye area when applying facial masks

1. Thin skin around the eyes

The thickness of the skin around the eyes is one-third of that on the face. It is very fragile, sensitive and easily damaged. If a tear-off mask is applied, the skin around the eyes cannot withstand strong tearing and tossing, which may cause injury to the skin around the eyes.

2. The structure of the skin around the eyes is different from that of the facial skin

There is a large amount of fat and oil glands on the human face, but due to the structure of the skin around the eyes, there is very little oil gland secretion around the eyes, and the circulation is very fragile and the burden is heavy. If you don't avoid the area around the eyes, it will cause certain damage. The skin around the eyes has its own special nutritional products. Eye masks and eye creams can provide sufficient nutrients for the skin around the eyes. Compared with eye masks, facial masks are more nutritionally complex and are easily not absorbed by the skin around the eyes when used on them.

3. The skin around the eyes is fragile

The skin around the eyes is the most vulnerable part of the human face, so it needs special protection compared to the face and forehead. General skin care products or cosmetics should be avoided as much as possible. Use eye creams and eye care solutions specifically for the eyes, and also avoid it when applying facial masks.

4. Avoid mask ingredients that irritate the eyes

Generally speaking, facial masks contain a lot of nutrients. Although these ingredients have protective and improving effects on human skin, the eye area is very close to the eyes. If you don't avoid it, the nutrients in the mask may enter the human eye. The eyeball is very fragile, so it is very irritating and harmful to the eyes. So try to avoid the eye area when applying a facial mask.

What happens if you don't avoid the eye area when applying a facial mask?

Long fat particles. Facial masks contain a lot of nutrients, and the area around the eyes is one of the most vulnerable parts of the face. If you use facial masks for a long time without avoiding the area around the eyes, it may cause eutrophication of the skin around the eyes, resulting in abnormal excitement and bulging of the skin at the pore openings around the eyes, and the growth of fat particles. Therefore, it is generally recommended to avoid the area around the eyes as much as possible when applying a facial mask to avoid the formation of fat particles due to excess nutrition. The structure of the skin around the eyes is different from that of the facial skin. The skin around the eyes is thin and is the most vulnerable part of the human face. Compared with the face and forehead, it requires special protection, and general skin care products or cosmetics should be avoided as much as possible. Therefore, the design of the mask will have a circle of holes around the eyes. The two holes are designed to avoid the fragile skin around the eyes and prevent the nutrients in the mask from accidentally supplementing the skin around the eyes.
