For some reason, after the rapid development of injection and cosmetology material, beauty experts look at those who are still ready to maintain the condition of the skin at home.
The use of anti-wrinkle face masks is believed to be ineffective, but in vain. An expert phytotherapist states with certainty that you just do not know how to cook them properly.
Rules for the use of anti-wrinkle masks
In order for a home mask to be used at home to prove its effectiveness, many conditions must be met.
- Facial skin preparation.How many times have they said that cleansing is the key to healthy skin. However, for some reason, many women either skip this stage or do not treat it carefully enough. And yet, cleansed skin "works" after using the mask by 30% more effectively. Remember, before applying the composition on your face, you must first cleanse your skin with lotion or toner. With oily skin, dirt and makeup residues are rinsed off with foam or exfoliation and on dry skin - with clean water.
- Preparation of the composition of the mask.45% of allergic reactions in women occur due to the fact that they do not control the expiration date of the ingredients of the anti-wrinkle mask. And this must be done. And it is recommended to use only natural ingredients. It is best to check for allergies in advance by applying a small amount of the mask to the edge of the elbow. If after 15 minutes there is no allergic reaction, you can use it safely.
- Product application.The mask should be applied gently on the face with clean hands. The engineers are as follows: the composition is applied from bottom to top along the massage lines (from the neck to the hairline). Then move from the nasolabial folds to the ears and from the chin to the ear lobes. The next layer should be applied to the area around the lips and eyes. If the mask contains active ingredients, do not apply them to the lips and eye area. After fully applying the product, inhale and exhale several times. You can lie down and close your eyes. Keep in mind that some face masks, especially those with berries and fruits, leak, so try to protect your clothes in advance. It is recommended to put your hair in a shower cap and cover your shoulders and chest with a towel.
- The "lifespan" of the mask.On average, it takes about half an hour to keep the mask from wrinkles, this time it is enough for the active ingredients to begin to affect the upper layers of the skin. But, if you feel burning, itching or see redness, urticaria, immediately rinse the mask with water. In any case, take a mild anti-allergy medicine and, if possible, see your doctor.
- Removing the mask.The ideal option is to gently remove the mask first with a damp towel or sponge, this is the so-called gentle cleansing. And only then rinse with cold or hot running water, without using soap. If you are the owner of dry skin, then the anti-wrinkle mask is rinsed with warm water, but with an oily product it is rinsed with cold. After removing the remnants of the mask, a moisturizer should be applied to the skin of the face.
What kind of cream to choose for the face?
- For dry skin, you should choose a cream with a dense texture that nourishes it intensely.
- For oily skin, a zinc-based cream with an elastic effect is suitable.
- However, hypoallergenic products have proven to be excellent for the care of sensitive skin.
