Which is better, a hydrating device or a facial mask?

If we distinguish between hydrating devices and facial masks in terms of their nature, hydrating devices are a kind of beauty tool, while facial masks are a kind of beauty product. They both have the function of hydrating the skin. It is impossible to say which one is better, because they are not the same kind of things and there is no comparability at all. What's more, these two things can be used at the same time, and the beauty effect will be better when used at the same time.

What is the order of using the hydrating device and the mask?

1. The hydrating device and the mask can be used at the same time

The nutritional content of a hydrating device is not that high, so unlike a facial mask, it can only be used three times a week. A hydrating device has a simple hydrating function, and even if it is used frequently, it will not cause any pressure or burden to the skin. It can usually be used up to 6-8 times a day, and it can also be used while applying a facial mask. The beauty effect will be better when a hydrating device is used in conjunction with a facial mask.

2. Use the hydrating device first and then the mask

Before using a facial mask, we usually remove makeup and cleanse our face first. After thoroughly cleaning the skin, we start using the facial mask directly. However, if you also want to use a hydrating device at the same time, you can use it after cleansing and before applying the facial mask.

At this time, using a hydrating device can open the skin pores in advance, so that the skin can better absorb the nutrients in the mask later. At the same time, it can also properly hydrate the skin. If you are using a smearable mask, use a hydrating device to hydrate the skin in advance, and it can also make the mask dry more slowly.

Using a hydrating device while applying a facial mask

You can also use a hydrating device when applying a facial mask. The hydrating device has a strong penetrating effect and can accurately deliver moisture into the deep layers of the skin. If you use the hydrating device while applying a facial mask, the hydrating device will penetrate the moisture and nutrients in the mask into the deep layers of the skin, allowing the mask to exert a better beauty effect.

After applying the mask, you can use a hydrating device

When applying a facial mask, the pores on the facial skin are in an open state. After applying the mask, there will usually be some residual essence on the face. At this time, you can turn on the hydrating device for about 5-8 minutes, which can help the skin absorb the remaining essence better.

In addition, after applying the mask, you can use a hydrating device and add cold water at about 10 degrees into the device, which is also effective. Utilizing the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, using a hydrating device at this time can help the skin effectively shrink pores.
