Why does a facial mask hurt?

Loving beauty is very important for both male and female friends, especially young female friends. Women dress up to please themselves and want a bright and beautiful appearance. Naturally, facial masks are indispensable for smooth skin. I believe that many female friends have many kinds of facial masks at home, including hydrating, whitening, moisturizing, brightening, etc. Then some friends will ask why there is stinging pain when using a facial mask? Next I will give you a detailed introduction.

If there are no adverse reactions afterwards, it means that the skin is dehydrated. The skin will indeed feel a tingling sensation when using moisturizing products, and this feeling will basically subside after half to one minute.

If it takes a while, it will be fine after a while. As long as you don’t have allergies, you can continue to use it without worry.

If you don't want this to happen, you can do more hydrating work on your face, such as applying moisturizing lotion or cream before going out. If your home is dry and cold, you can use a moisturizer and apply facial cream. If you want to solve the stinging problem immediately, you can apply toner and lotion immediately after taking a shower (while the bathroom is still full of steam). Alternatively, you can use hot steam to apply to your face for about 10 minutes and then apply toner and lotion/night cream.

Why does my face sting after using a mask? First, your skin is extremely dehydrated and too dry. Second, you have over-exfoliated, which makes your skin very sensitive. Third, it is an allergic reaction, and sensitive skin will feel stinging. Fourth, it means that some of the ingredients in the mask are not suitable for you and are irritating. In addition, there are many types of mask products.

Especially for sensitive skin, because the stratum corneum on the face is relatively thin, sebum secretion is less, capillaries are obvious, the stratum corneum's ability to retain moisture is reduced, the skin is drier, and it is easy to cause skin allergies after contact with cosmetics or seasonal allergies. The skin on the face is relatively fragile and is easily affected by external environments or substances such as cold wind, food, water quality, ultraviolet rays, synthetic fibers, fragrances, pigments, etc., causing redness, swelling, itching, and stinging. The skin lacks luster, and the cheeks are prone to congestion, redness, and other uncomfortable symptoms.
