Is it useful to apply a mask after tanning? Do you know how to apply it effectively?

Facial mask is a very important part of women’s skin care. Some people ask if it is useful to apply facial mask after the skin is tanned? Why don't I have any effect? It is definitely useful to apply a facial mask after tanning your skin. If it doesn’t work, it depends on whether you are applying it correctly. Let’s take a look at it now.

Is it useful to apply a facial mask after tanning?

It is definitely useful to apply a facial mask after the skin is tanned, because the basal layer of the skin is in a state of dehydration after the skin is tanned. Due to the dehydration, the skin's microcirculation will slow down, and the metabolism will also slow down. It is also because the skin is severely dehydrated that melanocytes will run rampant throughout the skin base, breaking down melanin proteins and affecting keratinocytes, causing melanin deposition on the skin. When you apply a facial mask after tanning and do it correctly, the skin will quickly replenish water, accelerate the slow microcirculation, speed up the body's metabolism, block the production of melanocytes, and inhibit melanocyte deposition.

Mask material can affect the whitening effect

If you want a more rational and faster whitening effect after your skin is tanned, it is best to choose silk as the material of the mask. Because silk masks are the thinnest and can adhere to the skin to an extent of 80-90%. Only when the mask adheres to the skin better can the skin quickly absorb the nutrients and moisture in the mask.

Choose the right time to apply facial mask

If you want to achieve twice the result with half the effort with a facial mask after your skin is tanned, it is recommended to apply it between 6 and 8 in the morning and between 10 and 12 at night. Among these two times, applying the facial mask at night is the most effective. Because 10 pm to 12 am is the "golden time" for skin beauty. At this time, the skin repairs damaged cells by itself and better absorbs moisture and nutrients in the mask, making the microcirculation metabolism capacity of the basal layer of the skin stronger.

Don't apply facial mask every day even if your skin is tanned

Even if your skin is tanned, you should not apply a facial mask every day. It is generally recommended to apply it 1-2 times a day in the week before tanning. The purpose of frequent facial mask application is to allow the basal layer of the skin to quickly absorb moisture in a short period of time, allowing the skin to reach a healthy state. But when the skin is sufficiently hydrated, if we force ourselves to replenish water, it will be like eating. If we eat too much, we will feel bloated and vomit. This will be bad for the skin and make it more and more sensitive. Recommendation: After tanning, apply a facial mask 1-2 times a day within a week. After a week, you can increase the number of times to 3-5 times a week.

Homemade Milk Mask

Applying a facial mask after tanning your skin is actually more effective if you make your own. Because homemade facial masks are all natural and do not contain any chemical preservatives. We soak the facial mask paper in a cup of milk for about 2-3 minutes, wait until the facial mask paper is completely soaked, then apply it on the face for about 10 minutes, remove it, and wash it off with clean water. After one week, the skin will show obvious improvement. Because milk is rich in high protein, it can promote the absorption and metabolism of melanin and increase skin elasticity.
