Should I use the eye mask before or after the facial mask? At which step should I use the eye mask in my skin care?

When using an eye mask, I always think of using it together with a facial mask. It would be great to take care of skin care at once. But should this eye mask be used before or after the facial mask? At which step of skin care should eye mask be used?

Should I use the eye mask before or after the facial mask?

It is recommended to apply eye mask first and then facial mask. Apply the eye mask first to give your eyes good care, then apply the facial mask to allow your eyes to absorb the essence of the mask again. There is no conflict in whether to apply the facial mask or the eye mask first. If you just want to take care of your skin, you can do both at the same time.

Which step does eye mask belong to in skin care?

Eye mask is used in the third step of skin care, that is, use it between cleansing and toner. After using the eye mask, we use eye cream to lock in moisture, then apply essence to the entire face, apply cream to moisturize, and after the cream is fully absorbed, evenly apply sufficient sunscreen on the neck and face. If you want to apply a facial mask after using the eye mask, you can apply the eye mask first and then the facial mask. The order of subsequent skin care remains unchanged.

Which eye mask is good?

2. Shiseido Viagra Anti-wrinkle Essence Eye Mask

Yaya’s comment: This eye mask from Shiseido is also a very famous one, and it is also known as the “little eye iron”. It can be said that this is an eye mask with “zero” negative reviews, and its super high popularity is not due to advertising or celebrity endorsements, but its own strength. It contains retinol, but without its irritation. It has a lot of essence and gives a very gentle and moisturizing feeling after applying it on the eyes. As for the effect on fine lines and dry lines around the eyes, you can definitely see obvious changes within a short period of time after applying it and removing it. It is really amazing! Especially when paired with their eye essence from the same series, the effect is definitely not as simple as 1+1. Those who can afford it may wish to give it a try!

3. [DIA FORCE Gold Diamond Eye Mask]

Yaya’s comment: This gold diamond eye mask is also a very popular one. It is a Korean luxury eye mask. It can help our skin to significantly improve dark circles and fine lines around the eyes. It has very strong adhesion and contains a lot of moisture, and it comes from collagen, so when it is applied and absorbed by the skin, it will become thinner and thinner. You can even apply it before going to bed. When you wake up the next day, all the dark circles and eye wrinkles will be gone!

4. [Cattail Green Princess Eye Mask]

5. [SNP Bird's Nest Reservoir Eye Mask]

Yaya’s comment: When mentioning SNP, many people probably think of their facial masks. The Reservoir Mask is very famous. The eye cream from the same series is also very easy to use. It contains golden bird's nest ingredients and has a light mint scent, which is very refreshing and pleasant. Its main effect is to help our skin improve dry lines and fine lines around the eyes. The effect is very obvious, and it also has a significant improvement effect on fat particles! The most important thing is that its moisturizing effect is really amazing. It is very hydrating and moisturizing, but not sticky and very refreshing. It is also an eye mask that can improve wrinkles and fine lines in other parts of the face. The price-performance ratio is absolutely amazing.

Should I use the eye mask every day or a few times a week?

The skin around the eyes is the weakest part of the human body, yet it is also the most active part. Compared to eye creams that can be used every day, eye masks are "first aid" skin care products. They can immediately provide a large amount of moisture and nutrients and reduce swelling in time. They are generally more effective for emergency relief of eye problems.

There are three main types of eye masks. One is in sheet form, which is applied to the eyes and can be removed after 20 minutes. One is a washable type, which can be applied on the eyelids and wiped off with clean water or a wet cloth after half an hour. The other is an eye mask cream, which should be applied gently when used as an eye cream, and applied thickly when used as an eye mask.

Generally speaking, as a daily maintenance, it is only necessary to use it once or twice a week. The time for each eye mask application should not be too long. Otherwise, excessive use may cause overnutrition and the growth of fat particles. It is especially important to note that you cannot sleep with the eye mask on, because once the essence in the eye mask evaporates, it will take away the moisture in the skin. After a night, your originally smooth and moisturized skin may be damaged.
