The world of fabric face masks
Sheet face masks are concentrated and targeted cosmetic products .
Regular use of these products gives the skin of the face a fresh, toned and purified appearance.
Although most face masks are cream masks, sheet masks have recently become very popular . Both types are ready to use and require no preparation, they are simply applied to the skin.
Specifically, however, fabric face masks are disposable products whose fabric is soaked in a highly concentrated serum. Compared to creams, this type of product owes its better effectiveness to the possibility of exploiting a higher concentration of active ingredients and to the occlusive effect (or “patch”).
Some of these fabric face masks are made of pure cellulose and can therefore be disposed of with organic waste.
Why Sheet Face Masks Are Essential to Your Beauty Routine
If you have a beauty routine and you're missing face masks, you don't have a truly, truly effective beauty routine :)
Think that with just one application of a sheet face mask , the skin can absorb the same active ingredients that it would normally absorb in a week of applying creams!
This is due to the patch effect which creates the ideal conditions for the absorption of the active ingredients , as well as ensuring that the benefits are visible immediately.
The essential characteristics of a face mask
The most suitable fabric face mask for you should not only meet a series of essential requirements, it must also take into account the characteristics of the skin on which it will be applied.
Let's see some features:
- Moisturize dry skin.
- Purify.
- Give elasticity.
- Stimulate microcirculation to make the skin even and luminous.
- Help the skin defend itself from external aggressions.
- Counteract skin aging with an anti-aging effect.
- Promote the absorption of active ingredients.
There are so many ingredients that can be included in a face mask, ingredients that will be mixed and chosen based on the action that the product will have on the face!
- Nutritious ingredients such as oils, vegetable butters.
- Moisturizing ingredients such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid and aloe vera.
- Purifying and astringent ingredients, for example plant extracts such as rosemary or certain clays.
- Nourishing and repairing ingredients such as vitamin E, zinc oxide, some vegetable oils and butters.
- Anti-aging ingredients such as the aforementioned hyaluronic acid , bisabolol, azelaic acid, ginger or argan extracts.
- Brightening and depigmenting ingredients such as azelaic acid.
- Exfoliating ingredients such as fruit acids.
How do sheet face masks work and how are they used?
The highly concentrated active substances present in the tissue face masks are released thanks to the natural heat of the skin.
The application time, on the other hand, helps the serum to be absorbed.
Before application
Fabric face masks should be applied to thoroughly cleansed skin. Thoroughly cleansing the skin with a gentle but effective product is essential.
Then, dedicate yourself to a deep cleansing using a facial exfoliant, preferably silica or cellulose based.
The application
The steps for a correct application are simple:
• Shake the bag well so that the mask absorbs as much serum as possible: the serum tends to settle at the bottom.
• Open the bag and spread the fabric out over your face, making sure it adheres well.
• Leave on for 15-25 minutes and enjoy the relaxation!
• Remove the mask
After application
It may happen that when removing the mask some serum residue remains. In these cases, it is massaged delicately to promote its absorption in order to exploit its potential to the maximum.
It is good to remember that these masks can also be used 2-3 times a week, possibly varying the type.
