What should I do if there is fluorescent agent in the hydrating mask and it is not absorbed?

Moisturizing mask, this kind of mask is liked by many people. It can make the face more hydrated, how good is that? Does the moisturizing mask contain fluorescent agent? What should I do if the hydrating mask is not absorbed?

Is there any fluorescent agent in the hydrating mask?

Generally speaking, hydrating masks are less likely to contain fluorescent agents. Because the hydrating mask is mainly used to provide hydration to the basal layer of the skin. There are many possibilities for containing fluorescent agents, the most common of which is the functional whitening mask. The main symptom of the mask containing fluorescent agent is that after applying the mask, the skin's glossiness and whiteness will be immediately improved.

What to do if the hydrating mask is not absorbed

1. Apply a hydrating mask while taking a bath

Although applying a facial mask while taking a shower is a time-saving method, this method may also result in the hydrating mask not being absorbed. Because when we take a shower, the human body is in a state of motion. In a state of motion, it is difficult for the mask to fit together with the skin. If the mask cannot fit together with the skin, the moisturizing effect is naturally not good. In addition, there will be a lot of water vapor in the bathroom when you take a shower. The water vapor falling on the mask will dilute the essence in the mask, so the moisturizing effect will be greatly reduced.

2. Too much keratin in the hydrating mask

Although exfoliation cannot be done every day, it is still necessary to do it once every half a month or a month. The keratinocytes in the skin are different from other cells. Some of them will metabolize and die every 28 days. These metabolically dead keratinocytes will be metabolized by the skin to the epidermis, forming a layer of dead skin. When there are too many dead skin cells, the skin will be separated from the outside world by a layer of barrier. No matter whether you use a moisturizing mask or the best basic skin care products, the nutrients and essence in them will be absorbed by the dead skin and will have difficulty reaching the basal layer of the skin, resulting in the moisturizing mask not being absorbed and having no effect.

3. DIY hydrating mask

Many beauty-loving women like to try making their own DIY facial masks when they have nothing to do at home. Although DIY facial masks are all natural and do not contain preservatives or fluorescent agents, because the ingredients in DIY facial masks are useless and have been processed with scientific technology, their nutritional molecules are very large. When you use them once or twice, they may be effective, but when you use them for multiple times in a row, you will find that the DIY moisturizing mask is not absorbed. That’s because your skin cells have been fed with DIY macromolecules and are difficult to digest, causing the hydrating mask to be ineffective and not absorbed. Therefore, try to make DIY hydrating masks as little as possible, once a week is enough.

4. Cleaning the hydrating mask

If we do not clean our face thoroughly or well before applying the hydrating mask, it is normal for the hydrating mask not to be absorbed. Because the dirt or metabolites in the skin will form a membrane on the surface of the skin, but when a large amount of water and essence come into contact with the skin, they will be absorbed by them first. When they cannot be absorbed, they will pass through this membrane to reach the basal layer of the skin. If this is the case, it is normal for the hydrating mask not to be absorbed. Therefore, before we apply the hydrating mask, we must remove the makeup and clean the facial cleanser.

5. Applying a hydrating sleeping mask too thickly

Sleeping masks are a must-have for lazy people who love beauty, because they can be left on overnight and washed off after waking up the next day. Because sleeping masks can be used overnight, we must be careful when applying the hydrating sleeping mask and not apply it too thickly. The time from 12 o'clock at night to 3 o'clock in the morning is the time when the skin breathes and metabolizes rapidly. If the mask on the face is too thick, it will cause skin compression and difficulty in breathing. Moreover, the pores cannot be enlarged or opened, so even if you apply a thicker hydrating mask, the nutrients in the mask will find it difficult to reach the bottom layer of the skin, resulting in the hydrating mask not being absorbed.

6. Apply toner before applying the hydrating mask

If you want the hydrating mask to be absorbed faster and better, it is recommended that you apply some toner on your face after washing your face. Because toner can open the pores and water ion channels of the skin first. When we apply the mask again, the moisture in the mask can reach the cells in the bottom layer of the skin in the shortest time, allowing the skin to quickly reach a hydrated state.

7. Apply a layer of lotion when applying a hydrating mask

If you want to hydrate your face, the mask should be absorbed better and lock in moisture faster. It is recommended that after applying the hydrating mask on the face, you should cover the entire mask paper with your own lotion, so that the skin can be hydrated and quickly lock in moisture without losing it. Because lotion is thicker than the essence in the mask, when we apply the mask, we apply a layer of lotion on it to pressurize the essence and moisture in the mask so that it can be quickly absorbed, and to prevent the air from taking away any moisture from the skin.
