Beauty masks have been around for thousands of years, and are widely used by women and men who want to take good care of their skin. A variety of textures and shapes intrigue and entertain the user, bringing ever-greater comfort and bluffing results for perfect, glowing skin. A beauty mask is a skincare product that provides the skin with all the nutrients it needs to regain skin balance and delay the signs of aging.
A face mask is the treatment that willharmonize all skin types. This specific treatment can compensate for skin imbalances such as wrinkles, loss of firmness, dark circles, pimples and dryness. To do this, you need to know your skin type, and then determine what you need to make up for any deficiencies. In fact, each skin type requires its own specific care. The only thing they have in common ishydration, because all skin types need to be moisturized. Subcutaneous cells and glands cannot create water. This hydration is essential to maintain the balance of the hydrolipidic film.
Oily skin produces too much sebum, a fatty substance that protects the epidermal barrier. However, it's important to remember that this overabundance is partly due to a dysfunction of the sebaceous glands, but also to possible dehydration. If the skin feels an imbalance and a lack of water, it can only secrete sebum to protect itself. An overproduction of sebum will clog pores and cause the notorious blemishes and blackheads, but will not solve the problem of lack of moisture. Conversely, dry skin lacks water and lipids. That's why it's essential to opt for a mask rich in moisture and nutrition, with active ingredients like glycerine and shea butter that will restore this deficiency and bring suppleness, elasticity and cutaneous comfort.
Increasingly, masks are being developed in a variety of textures to add an entertaining aspect to this moment of relaxation. You can find smooth, comfortable cream textures, as well as night jellies. Others will be formulated with a fabric soaked in active ingredients, and some will dry and become a film to be removed with a single gesture, known as peel-off masks. These new-generation masks are very popular, as they melt into the skin and conform to wrinkles and pores to ensure adequate contact and an occlusive effect so that the active ingredients can act deep down.
Complexion irregularities, blackheads, pimples. Are your skin's imperfections getting on your nerves? Cleansing, make-up removal and moisturizing are the golden rules for maintaining supple, radiant skin. Purifying Care rids the skin of impurities without aggressing it, restoring balance and vitality. Purifies, rebalances and fights skin imperfections.
Moisturizing masks are specially designed to treat signs of dehydration, a common condition affecting all skin types. Dehydration can result in tightness, a dull complexion, dry lines and a feeling of discomfort.
These masks contain active ingredients such as glycerine,hyaluronic acid orurea, which act as humectants to attract and retainwater in the skin. They may also incorporate soothing ingredients such asaloe vera orallantoin to calm irritation and reduce redness. Some are enriched with plant oils or butters, such as shea butter, to reinforce the skin barrier and prevent water loss.
Results are often visible from the very first use: skin looks plumped, softer and more luminous. Moisturizing masks can be used once or twice a week, or more if necessary, applying a generous layer to clean skin and leaving on for around 15-20 minutes. Some masks can also be left on overnight for prolonged hydration.
Purifying masks target the problems ofexcess sebum, clogged pores andimperfections, particularly common in oily and combination skin. Their role is to unclog pores, absorb excess sebum and eliminate impurities accumulated on the skin's surface.
These masks often contain ingredients such asclay (green, white or kaolin) and activated charcoal, known for their absorbent properties. They may also incorporate active ingredients such as zinc orsalicylic acid for a regulating and exfoliating action, as well as natural extracts such astea tree for their antibacterial properties. In addition, soothing agents such as niacinamide prevent irritation, often associated with purifying treatments.
After application, skin is immediately clearer and pores are tightened. Purifying masks should be used sparingly, generally once a week, to avoid excessive drying. It's important not to let aclay-based mask dry out completely, as this can aggravate skin dryness.
Moisturizing and purifying masks can be used alone or in combination, depending on the needs of each area of the face. This technique, known as multimasking, involves applying a purifying mask to the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), where skin tends to be oilier, and a moisturizing mask to the cheeks or dry areas.
To maximize mask effectiveness, we recommend following a precise protocol. Start by cleansing your face with a mild cleanser suited to your skin type. You can also perform a light exfoliation to remove dead cells and promote better penetration of the active ingredients. Then apply the mask, avoiding the eye and lip contours, and respect the recommended application time. After rinsing, moisturize your skin with a cream or serum to seal in the benefits of the mask.
