How to use a mud mask? Skin care experts teach you how to use a mud mask

Facial masks are divided into facial mask sheets and facial mud masks. We usually use facial mask sheets. Compared with facial mask patches, facial mask mud is rich in minerals, such as potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium, iodine, etc. The minerals and trace elements contained in mineral mud are very important for skin metabolism. They can not only retain skin moisture, but also inhibit skin inflammation, remove dead skin cells and oil accumulation, stimulate blood circulation, soften the skin, deeply cleanse the skin and purify the pores, allowing the pores to breathe freely, and the skin is naturally refreshed and transparent. Next, let’s talk about how to use facial mask mud.

Cleanse your face before using the mud mask

Before using the mask mud, you should clean your face first. Thoroughly cleaning the excess oil and dirt on your face will help the skin absorb the mask mud. If you don't clean your face thoroughly, the dirt on your face will enter your skin along with the nutrients in the mask mud, causing enlarged pores, clogged pores, acne, and spots on your face.

Use toner before using the mud mask

Before using a mud mask, you should use toner first. This is to avoid drying out the skin when applying the mud mask. For dry skin, use a moisturizing toner before using a mud mask. In addition to achieving the effect of hydrating and moisturizing, it can also soothe the skin on the face and reduce the irritation of the mud mask to the skin.

How to apply mud mask correctly

Take an appropriate amount of mask mud and apply it evenly on the face. When applying the mask mud, you must pay attention to the order of using the mask mud on the face, namely: cheeks → lips → nose wings → forehead. This is because temperature affects the effectiveness and penetration of skin care products. The lower the temperature, the less effective they are. The temperature around the cheeks and lips is low, while the temperature around the forehead and nose is high.

Thickened Mud Mask

Facial mask mud is different from other types of facial masks. Facial mask mud can be applied slightly thicker on the face, so that the facial mask mud can form a closed and penetrating "skin care field" on the facial skin. Don't be stingy with your facial mask. Apply it generously, twice as much as usual, until the mask is built up thinly. Leave it on for 10 minutes before washing it off with clean water. If you want to use the sleeping mask as a daily mask, you can apply another layer when it is half dry to continue the skin care effects.

How to wash the mask mud

The mask mud is generally used for 20 minutes, so after 20 minutes, first use the mask stick to scrape off the excess mask on your face. Note that you should scrape the mask mud gently to avoid damaging your facial skin. Then use a professional facial mask cleansing puff to clean the excess mask mud on your face along the skin texture. Remember to clean from bottom to top. This will not only thoroughly clean the remaining mask mud on your face, but also have a firming and lifting effect.
