Applying a facial mask during menstruation has a good beauty and skin care effect, and applying a facial mask at night is theoretically more effective. Night is the "golden beauty time" for the skin. At this time, skin cells are more active; blood circulation in the skin is accelerated, and the absorption of beauty ingredients is more effective. There is relatively more time at night, so people tend to be more patient and careful about skin care. You can choose to apply the mask at night between 21:00 and 21:20 during your menstrual period. If it feels sticky, you can wash it off. The next day you will find that your skin is still moist and tender.
