Stinging on face with mask

Facial mask is a kind of skin care product. Many girls like to put on makeup. We can apply facial mask before putting on makeup and before going to bed. Applying facial mask can bring many benefits to our body, especially it can improve our skin, whiten our skin, and also have the effect of hydrating and moisturizing. However, some people will experience some abnormal conditions after using facial mask. So why does the face feel stinging after using facial mask?

Dehydrated skin. The skin is dehydrated and will feel a stinging sensation when applying a facial mask. This stinging sensation is short-lived and will gradually disappear after 3-5 minutes. This is because the skin is dehydrated due to insufficient hydration and moisturizing on a daily basis, and the large amount of moisture on the facial mask will temporarily cause a stinging sensation on the skin.

Pay attention to daily hydration and moisturizing of the skin. When the skin is particularly dry, you can apply a facial mask for three to five consecutive days, and then reduce the frequency to 2 to 3 times a week. Develop the habit of applying facial masks on a regular basis, especially in an air-conditioned environment. The skin needs to be hydrated and moisturized.

Skin allergies. When the skin feels tingling, it is not just because the skin is dehydrated. If the tingling sensation on the skin is persistent and there is redness and swelling, it may be an allergy. There are several types of allergies. It may be caused by seasonal changes or the mask contains allergens. Sometimes you have been using it without any allergies, but you may suddenly have allergies.

If you feel a persistent stinging sensation when applying a facial mask, you should remove the mask immediately and wash off any remaining essence on your face. If the condition is serious, see a doctor. If you have an allergic reaction to a mask you have been using, you should stop using it for a while and wait until your skin has stabilized before using it again. When using a new mask, first perform an allergy test on the back of your hand or behind your ear, and then use it on your face if there is no adverse reaction.

Incorrect use of mask. If there is a brief tingling sensation when applying a facial mask, and you do a good job of daily hydration and moisturizing, then it means that the mask is used improperly, such as applying the mask directly after cleansing or using the mask for too long, or you have an allergic reaction when using the mask continuously, then in addition to the skin being sensitive due to seasonal changes and poor tolerance, it means that you are not paying attention to how to use the mask.

Before applying a facial mask, cleanse your face first. After cleansing, moisturize your skin with toner and then apply the mask. The longer you apply the mask, the better. If you apply the mask for a long time, the mask paper will absorb moisture from the skin. Generally speaking, it is best to apply the mask for 15-20 minutes.
