Using masks properly will give you bright, smooth and healthy skin. However, overuse of masks can cause irritation and weaken the skin, making it susceptible to acne. So how long should you use a mask properly? Dermalogica will introduce to you how to use masks according to expert advice. Please follow along!
How to apply face mask properly at home
The first step when applying a mask is to choose one that suits your skin type.
- Moisturizing. Moisturizers or sheet masks are great for dry skin types. Dermatologists recommend using a sleeping mask to maximize moisturizing effectiveness.
- Clay and mud. These are good for oily or combination skin.
- Enzyme. Gel masks, enzyme creams, and foaming masks are great for those with acne.
- Gel mask. These are perfect options for those with sensitive skin.
- Mask contains antioxidants. Gel or cream masks with antioxidant formulas are great for melasma.
Once you've found a product that works for you, apply the mask and relax. You can pull the mask up to your neck to help make this area more nourished and youthful. After applying the mask, you should also massage your face so the product can take full effect.
How long should I leave the mask on?
Many people think that wearing a mask for a long time will give better results. However, this can actually have a negative effect on your skin. All types of paper masks have instructions for use, including the time to apply the mask. The usage time of most masks is from 15 to 20 minutes.
Applying the mask more may cause the opposite effect. Because the mask will start to absorb moisture and essence from the skin. When you feel the mask starting to dry, that's the best time to take it off. After removing the mask, you do not need to wash your face. Washing your face will remove nutrients from your skin. You just need to pat and massage to help your skin absorb more nutrients. If the essence from the mask feels sticky, just use a tissue to gently blot it.

I am over 65 years old and have dry skin. I really like the product's effect on my skin.
It gives a great moisturizing feeling. You should try this mask!
On my chin there is an area of dry, rough skin. And it completely disappeared after only 1 month of use.
Because this is an expensive type, you only need a small amount the size of a fingernail. However, I can spread it on my skin easily.
Tanya S. left a comment on Skinmart:
I really love this mask. It melts just like the name suggests. I work away from home and this mask is great to take with me. I can use the mask anywhere. It makes my skin soft and not dry. I work in many different climates. This mask keeps my skin healthy.
