Why does my skin become dry after using the seaweed mask? How to use it correctly

Why does my skin become dry after using a seaweed mask? Many people report that their skin becomes very dry after using seaweed mask. What is the reason? Let’s talk about this.

Why does my skin become dry after using the seaweed mask?

Seaweed mask is not recommended for people with thin stratum corneum. There are two possibilities for dry skin or even peeling after use. One is that it is applied for too long and takes away moisture from the face, and the other is mild allergy. The former can be solved by applying cream after the mask, and the latter can only stop using such products and replace them with better seaweed mud products.

How long should you wear a seaweed mask?

The usage time of seaweed mask is similar to that of most facial masks, and 15-20 minutes is sufficient. If you apply it for too long, the seaweed mask will dry out, and in the process of drying, it will absorb the moisture of the skin, which will not only lose its own function but also make the skin drier and drier. In addition, people with sensitive skin are recommended to use it every other day.

How to use seaweed mask correctly

Clean your face

Be sure to clean your face before using the mask. Only when your face is clean can it exert its greatest effect. Therefore, you can use some alcohol-free cleansers to help clean your face. Please note that you should not use abrasive facial cleansers as they may conflict with your skin to a certain extent.

Facial spray

If you apply it directly on your face, it will make your facial skin feel uncomfortable due to its strong water absorption. Therefore, you can spray some warm water on your face to keep it moist, which will achieve better results during the facial mask process.

Application tips

There is a certain method to apply it, and it cannot be applied randomly. In order to achieve the best effect, you should apply more on key areas such as the forehead, face and cheekbones. Don't apply too much under the eyes and lips as these areas lose water more easily.
