How long should I wear the mask?

I believe that many of my friends do not have their own methods of applying facial masks. They always use their own theories to apply facial masks. For example, sometimes the mask will be kept on for a whole night, or for more than a few hours without being washed off. These are all incorrect. Different types of masks have different usage methods. I will explain them to you in detail.

Look at the types of masks

The facial masks on the market are mainly divided into: application-type facial masks and smear-type facial masks. There is no need to talk about smear-type facial masks! Whether it is a paste, gel or cream, it must be washed off. Or are you going to go out and scare people?

Today, Yuwei Skincare will focus on sheet masks.

The sheet mask is a commonly used mask. It is easy to carry and many people like it. But the question is, should we wash it?

1. If you clearly say you want to wash something, you must wash it, no explanation needed!

2. Clearly say it is wash-free, you can wash it or not. If it is clearly stated that the mask does not need to be washed, like the Yuwei Glycoprotein Mask, you don’t need to wash it.

3. If it is not explicitly stated whether to wash it or not, it is generally necessary to wash it. Because the mask may contain some special ingredients that are easily oxidized and deteriorate, and if they stay on the face for a long time, they can easily damage the skin.

It doesn't mean that you don't need to wash it!

Sheet-type facial masks usually contain a large amount of essence. Even if it is a wash-free mask, if you feel your face is still sticky after massage, you should rinse it with clean water and then proceed with the subsequent skin care steps. If not, you don’t need to wash your face and proceed directly to the next step.

Should I wash the cleansing mask (peel-off mask)?

Another misunderstanding is that some girls think that cleansing masks are meant for cleansing, so they don’t need to be washed with water!

In fact, it is just the opposite. After applying the cleansing mask, you should not only wash your face, but also wash it immediately. The main function of a cleansing mask is to cleanse the skin and metabolize keratin. Because the ingredients it contains can easily dry out the skin, it generally cannot be applied for too long. After applying the mask, there will be some mask residue, which will make your face drier and drier if left on the face.
