Love of beauty is women’s nature. I believe that many women have their own way of caring for their skin. However, for lazy women, they don’t know a lot of common sense about skin care. In fact, facial mask is a common method of skin care. So how to make a facial mask in winter? What should you pay attention to when making a facial mask? How often should I use a facial mask? Let’s find out below. 1. You must insist on making facial masks in winter Winter is the "dry season" for the skin. Long-term exposure to air-conditioning makes the skin dull and lifeless due to lack of water. If you want to keep your skin hydrated and tender, a moisturizing mask is the fastest and most effective tool. So no matter how afraid of the cold you are, you should insist on using facial mask in winter. 2. Steam your face before applying mask to promote absorption In the cold winter, the body's metabolism slows down and the pores shrink. The effect of the same facial mask is generally not as obvious as in other seasons. If you wash your face with warm water or steam your face with water vapor before applying the mask, it will not only expand the pores on your face but also promote blood circulation, allowing the skin to better absorb the moisture and essence in the mask. 3. Moisturizing masks can be heated Heating the mask may be a method that many people would think of, but when using it, they are also unsure whether it will destroy the ingredients of the mask itself. It is most suitable for general moisturizing masks to be soaked in 45℃ water for 5 minutes. If the temperature is too high or the heating time is too long, the ingredients of the mask will be destroyed. 45℃ is slightly higher than the normal body temperature of 36.8℃, and is a relatively safe temperature for unstable components. After soaking for 5 minutes, the temperature of the mask will be almost the same as the human body temperature, and the effect will of course be the best. 4. Whitening products cannot be heated The heating mentioned above is very useful for moisturizing masks, but everyone must remember that this is not applicable to whitening masks at all! Because the vitamin C, amino acids, and last year's hot ingredient, hydroxyethyl ester, etc. in whitening masks are all unstable ingredients, and they will be useless after heating. Tips: The ingredients in cleansing, firming, and cell-activating masks are relatively stable, and heating can actually help promote absorption. 5. It can be done in a place with high room temperature Air-conditioned rooms and bathrooms, where the room temperature is relatively high, are the best places to make facial masks. In a warm environment, blood circulation throughout the body will also speed up. Applying the mask on the face when the pores are open can promote the absorption of the mask. 6. Don’t face heaters and other equipment I just said that doing it in a place with high room temperature will be beneficial to absorption. Some people may think, can we put our face directly towards the heater? The answer is of course NO! To put it simply, applying a facial mask is to use the principle of isolating the air to allow nutrients to penetrate into the skin, stimulating the skin to continuously absorb large amounts of nutrients. Devices such as heaters are not only not conducive to the absorption of the mask, but will cause the hot air to dry out the moisture on the face, making it drier and drier. 7. It is best to use a facial mask once every three days Of course, there are some rules for how long to use facial masks. Applying them once a day or once a month is not scientific. It takes 25 days for the skin to grow from the basal cell layer to a new stratum corneum, and it takes 3 days for the new stratum corneum to turn into useless old dead stratum corneum, so it is best to use a facial mask once every 3 days. The climate is dry in winter and moisture is easy to dry out. The best time for the mask to stay on the face is 15 minutes. If it stays on the face for too long, not only will the moisturizing effect not be achieved due to the evaporation of moisture, but sometimes it will even evaporate the moisture on the face. 8. Use facial cream to lock in moisture and essence After tearing off the mask paper and seeing the hydrated skin, don’t think that’s the end of it, the complete mask process is not over yet, the final ending is the layer of cream that locks in moisture and essence. Right after applying the mask, the moisture and essence have not been completely absorbed by the skin. If directly exposed to the air, they will evaporate quickly. Therefore, you should apply facial cream immediately after applying the mask so that the effect will be more lasting and obvious. The editor reminds everyone that the time for applying a facial mask should be determined according to your own physical and skin condition. Generally, it should not be applied for too long. The longer the time is not necessarily better. Sometimes the skin has reached a saturated state and will not absorb nutrients no matter how long it is applied. Not only will it fail to achieve beauty, but it will also make the skin unable to breathe. Therefore, when using a facial mask, you should use it according to your skin condition. |
