How to save lazy people by not washing the mask

Skin care is an essential task for every beauty lover every day. After a day of study and work, many people choose to use facial masks to relieve the day's fatigue and maintain rough and dull skin. So do you know what will happen if you don’t wash the mask on your face in time? What should we pay attention to?

What happens if you don't wash the mask?

Patch masks and ordinary facial masks need to be washed, but there will be no problem if the wash-free sleeping masks are not washed. Therefore, whether or not to wash the mask after application depends on the type of mask. Facial masks contain a lot of moisturizing substances, and our skin surface also contains some microorganisms. Sometimes if we don’t wash our face after applying the mask, our skin may become a culture medium for these microorganisms. Cleaning in time is the best way to treat your skin.

The difference between sheet masks and smear masks

1. Different usage methods

Spreadable facial masks are usually packaged in bottles in paste or gel form, and need to be applied with designated tools. They are also relatively free to apply, making them time-consuming and laborious to use outside. Patch masks are made of woven cloth and can be applied directly to the face, making them very convenient to use.

2. Different effects

Patch-type facial masks generally contain essence with a higher concentration. By utilizing the airtight and heat-retaining properties of the mask paper, the beauty nutrients in the essence can quickly penetrate into the bottom layer of the skin and effectively improve skin problems. Smearable facial masks are generally thicker, and common textures include mud/clay and gel. Due to its texture, smearable masks adhere better and can better cleanse the skin.

How often should I apply a facial mask?

The normal usage frequency of a general hydrating facial mask is 3-4 times a week, the normal usage frequency of a facial mask with special functions of whitening and anti-wrinkle is 1-2 times a week, and the normal usage frequency of a smear-type cleansing facial mask is once a week.

Precautions for applying facial mask

1. It is not suitable to apply a facial mask directly after washing your face. You need to use a refreshing toner before applying the mask to help absorption.

2. If you want a more fitting effect, you can use the technique of lifting the cheeks to expel the air inside.

3. Masks are easier to absorb when you lie down than when you stand
