How to use a sleeping mask correctly

Many people don't know how to use the sleeping mask when they get it. If you don't know how to use it, you may not get the desired effect. The sleeping mask must be used correctly. First of all, you must know the steps. When using the sleeping mask, we must clean the skin first, so that the skin will not be left without care when using the mask. So what is the correct way to use the sleeping mask?

First, take a soybean-sized amount from the sleeping mask and apply it to the forehead, cheeks and chin.

Use your fingertips to spread the mask evenly from the center of the forehead to both sides, and then apply the mask evenly on the face in circular motions. Do not use too much force to avoid pulling the skin.

Use the middle and ring fingers to apply from both cheeks diagonally upwards, applying against the direction of pore growth, to allow the skin to better absorb nutrients.

Apply evenly in circles from the center of the chin to both sides. Then open your palms and cover your entire forehead and chin, stay for about 5 seconds to relieve skin pressure.

Use the middle and ring fingers to massage from below the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye, and then gently press on the outer corner of the eye for about 5 seconds.

Cover your cheeks with the palms of both hands, and gently massage from the center of the face to both sides, with your hands lifting upwards, for about 5 seconds.

Press your palm from the cheek down to behind the ear, slowly slide to the clavicle, and press for about 5 seconds. This can effectively promote lymphatic blood circulation and expel toxins from the body.

Precautions

Are sleeping masks suitable for you?

There are two situations where it is not suitable to use a sleeping mask:

First: If you use a night cream with sufficient oil content, then you do not need to add a sleeping mask to enhance the nourishing, hydrating and repairing effects.

Second: If you use a gel-like night cream, then you don’t need to use a sleeping mask, because the texture of the sleeping mask is almost exactly the same as that of the gel-like night cream. If two identical products are superimposed, the effect will definitely be greatly reduced.

Exceptions when applying night cream: If you apply night cream but your skin still feels dry, you can use a layered sleeping mask.
