Can I apply the mask every day

Dry skin is prone to many skin problems, so many eyebrows moved out of the beauty artifacts - hydration mask, worried about the skin is not enough moisture, want to give the skin daily hydration but subconsciously worried about the skin does not breathe well, then the moisture mask can be done every day? What misconceptions need to be noted about the use of masks? Generally speaking, no matter what the mask is, it can not be posted every day. Next we will start with, moisturizing mask, talk about the mask use need to pay attention to the 8 misconceptions.

Misconception one: every day mask

The mask is usually taken as a magic tool to save the skin, for example, after staying up late, after the sunburn to put a mask on the skin has a very good repair effect. Some MM in order to pursue a more perfect effect, want to give the skin enough water, so every day mask. As a matter of fact, the instructions for using the mask generally state that it should be used once a week, or at most 2~3 times a week. The main function of the skin is actually to breathe, the ability to absorb nutrients is limited, if you use the mask every day will only make the skin more and more sensitive, more and more fragile, and even cause redness and swelling, reducing the skin's resistance.

Misconception two: the side of the bath while applying the mask

When you take a shower, paste a mask, after the shower just can wash off the mask, convenient. It is true that doing so saves time, but whether the mask paste is effective needs to be proven. If it is a jelly mask, while bathing mask is OK, but if it is a non-woven mask or commonly used paper film, or need to dry mask, water vapor will be absorbed into the mask, resulting in a weakening effect of the mask. And too much water vapor will isolate the mask and the skin, the skin can not be nourished.

Myth 3: Oily skin only use cleansing masks

For oily skin beauty, it is necessary to apply a mask to control oil. Oily skin can switch between oil control masks, cleansing masks and moisturizing masks. Because the root cause of oily skin is the lack of water in the skin, the skin does not breathe well, which leads to the accumulation of oil, or the skin with the oil to protect itself.

Myth #4: Cool tear-off masks

Many people like to use sticky masks tightly on the face, tear off when you see the mask on the blackheads and other also a sense of accomplishment burst. Tearing masks do have strong cleaning ability, but the damage to the skin is also great, often tearing, will lead to skin slackening, pores and other skin problems.

Myth 5: No need for special application of eye masks

The skin under the eyes is only 1/4 the thickness of normal skin, so it needs more special care. Many masks, especially those for cleansing and moisturizing, contain ingredients that can cause irritation to the delicate skin under the eyes and should be avoided around the eyes. Therefore, the use of eye masks is necessary to enhance the care of the skin under the eyes. It is especially ideal for intensive maintenance when the skin around the eyes is heavily dehydrated and lacking in nutrients. In fact, eye masks should be used consistently, at least twice a week, and in conjunction with eye creams, to achieve the best eye care results.

Myth #6: You must exfoliate before doing a mask

It is necessary to keep your skin clean before doing a mask, but it may not be necessary to exfoliate every time. The skin's stratum corneum is the skin's natural barrier, with the role of preventing skin moisture loss, neutralizing the pH, etc. The metabolic cycle of the stratum corneum is 28 days, that is, every 28 days the stratum corneum metabolizes some dead cells, so exfoliation at most 1 month to do 1 time, too frequent exfoliation, will damage the stratum corneum. In addition, the sensitive skin more frequent exfoliation is not necessary.

Myth 7: Long-term DIY mask

Many women friends see TV and magazines promote their DIY face masks, the idea is good, but the substance is really very limited to help our skin, may be in the just done feel some effect, but the next day the skin quality back to the original look. The reason is that these homemade mask ingredients are very natural, but not after some scientific and technological processing, generally speaking, the molecules are too large to be absorbed by the skin, so although interesting, save money, but no effect, smart you have to think about it yo!

Myth #8: Absorbing essence mask

Some masks cost a lot of money, some beauty face mask after a period of time there is a lot of essence in the mask, can not afford to waste, so continue to apply. The waste is small, the mask becomes a petri dish of bacteria is big. The bacteria on your face can never be cleaned up, and the same mask for a long time can easily lead to bacteria breeding. In addition, when the moisture in the mask is lower than the face, the mask will begin to anti-absorb skin moisture and nutrients.
