How to use eye masks effectively and the order of using facial masks

Speaking of this eye mask, many people like to use it to reduce fine lines around the eyes. How to use this eye mask effectively? What is the order of using eye mask and facial mask?

How to use eye mask for best effect

1. Cleanse your face thoroughly

When applying an eye mask, you must thoroughly cleanse your skin. If this step is skipped, the oil and dirt on your face will clog your pores, and the nutrients in the eye mask will not be able to reach the inner layer of the skin. If this continues for a long time, some skin problems will accumulate on the skin.

2. Hot compress around eyes

Applying a hot towel around the eyes can completely open the pores around the eyes, soften the cuticles, relax the muscles around the eyes, and then applying an eye mask can absorb nutrients into the skin.

3. Order of applying eye mask

Non-woven fabric, crystal eye masks or milky eye masks should all be applied from the beginning of the eye to the end of the eye. The former two must be gently smoothed, while the milky eye mask should not be applied back and forth, but gently patted with your fingers until absorbed.

4. Eye mask time

The longer you apply the eye mask, the better. Generally, it should be 10 to 15 minutes. Especially for non-woven eye masks, they are particularly easy to dry out. If you don't tear them off after they have dried, it will have a counterproductive effect on the skin around the eyes.

The order of using facial and eye masks

In order to achieve the best skin care effect, it is recommended to apply eye mask first and then facial mask.

In fact, eye masks and facial masks do not conflict with each other and can be used at the same time. Some facial masks do not have an eye area, so you can put the eye mask inside and the facial mask outside. If the facial mask has eye function, you don’t need to apply the eye mask. Of course, if you are more strict, you can stagger the time of using the facial mask and the eye mask. For example, apply facial mask on the first day, eye mask on the second day, and so on.

This is the introduction to the usage of eye mask. This eye mask is usually used before facial mask.
